Wuxia is fading. Wuxia has it tough. I hope I can do my small part to bring a glimmer of light to wuxia novels~~~

Little Anchovy's Reading List~~~🤣
🐳 The idea behind this list: what if, just what if? 🐳 😬 Please follow! No flowers needed! If you're feeling generous, why not show some love to the list owner's flop of a novel? 😂 I've been a bookworm for over ten years, and I hope to make friends through books. 😘 Like plenty of longtime bookworms, I used to read only completed novels. That's why most of the books I've read were already big hits, and they're still popular today. The books below will all be works by big-name authors. I'll share h
Great Wuxia!
(This list will probably focus on completed wuxia novels.) Jin Yong, Gu Long, Huang Yi, and Liang Yusheng are gone. The modern jianghu has changed dramatically, and a new online martial world has risen. This list will gather outstanding wuxia novels of all kinds from the past two years and let you experience their varied styles.
[All Genres Included] Make Reading a Ritual
Reading deserves a little ritual. I only recommend good books. These are mostly books I read in my spare time. I've been a bookworm for over a decade. I mainly recommend high-quality stories, regardless of genre, with no deal-breakers. I'll recommend high-quality new books, too. As long as they're good, they're in. Authors are welcome to promote their books. If the quality is there, I'll consider adding them. Good luck, authors!

My Personal Reading List
I've been a bookworm for well over a decade, and these days it's hard to find a book I can finish. I can't stomach harems, but stories without a heroine don't work for me either. Bad writing is a dealbreaker, and I won't even mention plots where the setup and payoff don't match. I can ignore the occasional typo. All I ask is for a coherent story, a villain who isn't an idiot, a protagonist who isn't a pushover, and an author who isn't an idiot. What a shame...

Sand in the Desert
On the seventh day of the third month, I was caught in the rain on the road through Sand Lake. My companions had set off ahead with the rain gear, and they were all soaked, but I didn't mind. Soon the sky cleared, so I wrote this poem. Pay no heed to the rain beating through the trees. Why not stroll on, singing softly? A bamboo staff and straw sandals can outpace a horse. Who's afraid? Let me spend my life in rain and mist, clad in a straw cape.
Wuxia Is Not Dead, Just Fading
As the title says, this list is mainly wuxia, followed by xianxia. Other genres come and go depending on what I feel like adding. Has wuxia really become a thing of the past? As a longtime reader who's getting on in years (nearly thirty, sob), I want to catch the last of it while I still can. This list has all kinds of wuxia. I hope you find something to your taste and show the genre a little support. Thanks! !!! Help wuxia novels thrive! Authors, send me your book recommendations with a coup
Wuxia Isn't Dead, It's Just Fading Away
To borrow a line from Tian Yuhan: Rekindle the dying embers of wuxia and bring back the passionate martial world! Take up the dream of heroes again and write anew of love, hate, and vengeance! Wuxia should not fade into silence. It still has plenty of life in it 👊🏻 The wuxia in this list span many styles and subgenres. I hope you find something to your taste and show wuxia a little support. Thank you! !!! Help support wuxia novels: authors, come recommend your books with two or three lines about

The capital of the Qin Dynasty was Xianyang; please respect history.
Ten years of writing, my heart adrift; I think not of the bigger picture, I only act impulsively. A few favorites, but nowhere to confide my sorrow. Full of hope for recommendations, but no one reads; I'm waiting to be forgotten. Even if I persist in trying to get it published and achieve perfect attendance, there's still no hope. After much deliberation, only abandoning the project seems satisfying. I anticipate publishing one book every year on Qidian.com and ranking it among the top authors.
A bookworm's honest opinion after ten years of reading. Although martial arts fiction has declined in popularity, there are still people who persist. While the author addressed some issues at the beginning, the story gradually improves, becoming better and better. It's rare to see such a high-quality story these days. Don't rush in, readers; take a look, you definitely won't be disappointed. We are not disappointed, and neither is the author. This is truly wonderful.
I skipped through a few chapters and discovered a serious problem: Qin Shi Huang wanted immortality and wanted to kill his ministers to obtain their souls. Not just one, but one after another, and openly at that. Wouldn't those ministers really not resist? This main plot is very illogical.
The first few hundred chapters of this high-martial arts world are all about scheming and plotting—poisonous! Qin Shi Huang is powerful for the first few hundred chapters, then dies in the last few, supposedly due to a qi deviation during cultivation? Poisonous!
Chapter 69 is enough to make you want to quit. I can tolerate the other miscellaneous settings like Chang'an and Lü Bu. But what's really annoying is that after Yu Ji becomes sworn brothers with Xiang Yu, she uses the protagonist as a shield, then breaks ties with Xiang Yu. It's like taking off your pants to fart – completely unnecessary.
Sorry, after reading two chapters I felt the writing style was a bit silly, and although I really wanted to continue, I gave up on the fourth chapter.
Let me talk about some of the book reviews I've seen. I've found it quite difficult for the author. If they have the writing skills, they shouldn't be trying to ride the coattails of the Qin Dynasty. They've ended up pleasing neither side, since people read martial arts novels as historical novels.
The author is in a bind. They're not writing about the Qin Dynasty anymore, fearing readers won't feel connected, especially since Qin history is already legendary. If they did write it, they'd expect it to be like a historical novel—it's supposed to be an alternate world Qin Dynasty, so it can't be exactly like history.
The beginning was alright, but then character #69 was so badly poisoned he couldn't recover and was immediately killed. He swore brotherhood with Xiang Yu, only to have it broken off with a single sentence from Yu Ji after she used him as a shield. It was a completely illogical turn of events. If you're thinking of watching this, think twice.
I really can't help but complain.
Seeing the sudden, forced poisoning of the story in Chapter 69... Imagine you being suddenly dragged into this situation by a woman, and she's even using someone you just recruited as a shield. And the protagonist is willingly helping her! Just because she's beautiful? His intelligence suddenly seems to have turned negative; this is particularly disgusting.
