Just Passing Through the Jianghu

Chapter Three is too difficult to evaluate, or rather, the author has included too much of their own opinion, and it clearly does not conform to universal viewpoints. No country, no home, no nation. The Nine Provinces are divided into three kingdoms, and the protagonist resides in Pingzhou (objectively speaking, but the protagonist himself says he doesn't care). Suddenly jumping from Kyushu to Japan, this map change was very strange from the start. The author spreads martial arts in Japan, teaching it to ordinary people, which benefits the Japanese. From a purely human perspective, this is indeed beyond reproach. However, it seems strange that while the Japanese suffer, don't the people of Kyushu suffer as well? Since you have the ability to spread your teachings throughout the world and make everyone a dragon, why don't you do the same in Kyushu? To think that the establishment and destruction of all dynasties are meaningless and that one doesn't care about them at all is also quite... Something else. The rise and fall of a nation is ultimately determined by the common people. Only in times of peace and prosperity can the people finally catch their breath. Now you're telling me you prioritize people above all else, regardless of rise or fall? What exactly are you prioritizing? Readers are just ordinary people, and their education is not like that. Everyone has a responsibility for the rise and fall of the nation; governing the country, managing one's family, and bringing peace to the world are all part of the responsibility of the people. If we don't agree with these things, then our values ​​are too far apart. Putting people first is certainly the right thing to do, but we can't let that negate everything else. The online forum is still arguing. Some people think this is a manifestation of divinity outweighing humanity. I don't know how to judge it. The protagonist is a highly accomplished person who has the ability to transcend worldly constraints, which is certainly a good thing. We also enjoy reading stories about worldly involvement and detachment from worldly affairs, and the author writes very well in this aspect. But these views, which clearly contradict universal political and worldviews, are truly disheartening. We come to read a story, not to hear the author unilaterally present their own opinions. One could argue that these are simply characters in a book, not representing the author, but they are the protagonist, and our perspective follows them. Now, to tell readers not to project their own ideas onto the protagonist, and to offer this nonsensical, detached perspective... What's going on here? Aren't we just reading novels for entertainment? Why must this kind of opinion be presented? Has the author made too much money and now feels the need to create something didactic and persuasive?

Damn it, the parts before December 2025 are readable, but the later ones are all garbage. I've been following this thread since it started, and it's getting worse and worse. Looks like he's made too much money and gotten a pretentious literary urge.

Why not just write some cute, anime-style stories? Why insist on instilling your own set of values ​​and lecturing readers? I think the success of your last book made you think you're a literary genius.

Now I understand why the author abandoned the project; it's because they couldn't write about cuckoldry. #(Laughing and crying)

On May 31st, Squid's new book became a bestseller. Thinking about this book, I came back to take a look, only to find it had stopped updating.

Occasional interruptions are fine, the real concern is the complete lack of impact from the martial arts series...

We might as well continue to torture the geniuses of anime and manga; you really can't control the original creators.

Holy crap, 10,000 subscribers! With such great numbers, if they could have maintained it, it would definitely have been the best of the year. It's a shame they couldn't keep it up. #(You know what I mean)

Because of your turbulent daily life, you've given me a huge, huge, huge boost, like the EVA or Dragon Raja that I watched when I was a kid... So even though you've been off-season for so long and are suddenly updating again now, I'll still love you! Look! And chase! ... Don't let me down 😭 (Hey, laborer's mindset)

It seems this volume has gone too far and I can't continue writing it; I've abandoned the outline. It's currently being serialized; let's see if I'll continue. If it can have a decent ending, this book is still quite good.
