Ouyang Feng (歐陽鋒), also known as Viper Ouyang in the St. Martin's translation, is a fictional character in the wuxia novel The Legend of the Condor Heroes and its sequel, The Return of the Condor Heroes, by Jin Yong. He is the "Western Venom" of the "Five Greats", the five most powerful martial artists in the wulin (martial artists' community), alongside Wang Chongyang, Hong Qigong, Huang Yaoshi and Duan Zhixing. Ouyang Feng is best known for his Toad Skill, and his expertise in toxicology. In the first novel, he is described as a ruthless villain who resorts to unscrupulous means to become the most powerful martial artist in the wulin. He attempts to seize the Jiuyin Zhenjing, a book detailing powerful skills, but is tricked into practising skills based on a corrupted version of the manual. He ends up in a state of zouhuorumo and becomes insane eventually, but ironically his neigong has also improved tremendously. In the sequel, Ouyang Feng takes the protagonist, Yang Guo, as his godson and teaches him the Toad Skill. Later, he dies in the midst of laughter and forgotten past feuds alongside Hong Qigong, and they are buried on Mount Hua.
