Sixteen Years of Recommending Only the Best
I've read countless books. Once, I chased quantity and quick thrills, reading everything from famous authors to newcomers. But the true masters gradually disappeared, and bland books became endless. Good books grew hard to find, so I walked away. Now I've returned to Qidian. I no longer care about rankings in the web-novel world. I'll enjoy both newcomers and big names with a drink, as long as their work is sincere. After more than a decade of reading, I've gathered dozens of top-quality works,
A Veteran Reader's Dream of the Jianghu
Ten years pass in a dream of wandering the martial world, while wasted years leave me drunk on this fleeting life. With an old rain cape, bamboo pole, and faded blue robe, I drift beneath the bright moon, a lone boatman at the world's edge.
A Big World in a Little House
I made this list to collect some books I've read and enjoyed, along with stories I'm following. They're here for everyone to check out. If you feel the same way, please follow and favorite the list. If it's not your thing, please don't be rude.
Free Roaming the World of Chinese Paladin
An eternal classic: The Legend of Sword and Fairy! Thirty years of beautiful memories. What kind of immortal hero fantasy do you dream of? Roaming freely across the world, living by the code of chivalry, keeping your head down and playing it safe, or being a mischievous little rascal who puts on a show? This is a list of immortal hero fantasy novels. Let's ride our swords into the open skies together.
🌹Those Treasured Books!🌹
I have been reading and writing on Qidian for sixteen years. Looking through my bookshelf, I found many books that left a deep impression, so I am using this list to select some classics and share them with everyone. Of course, I will also add some new books I have read recently. Updates whenever necessary....
My First Reading List
I’ve loved reading since I was young. In elementary school, I loved it because I understood my teacher’s earnest warning: “Work hard while you’re young, or you’ll regret it when you’re old.” In middle school, I loved it because I took my parents’ patient advice to heart: “There’s a beautiful woman in books, and a house of gold.” In college, I loved reading to fulfill a dream. In the years just after I started working, I read because I wanted to visit parks or see movies but had no one to go with
Weiri Shou Nuanyang's Reading List
Books are the ladders of human progress. They not only drive our development, but also open up a fresh realm of imagination where we can explore the future, as distant as the stars and shrouded in mystery. Perhaps in the moment when I touch a book heart to heart and draw close to it, I have already spread a pair of wings feathered with wisdom and begun to soar through a sea of books, forgetting myself in its depths...
Books With Soul

A life without books is like a world without sunlight; a mind without books is like a bird without wings.
My Shelf Is Full, Saving These So I Don't Lose Them
Reading is enjoyable not because of what an author tells you, but because it makes you think actively. As you read, your imagination races through the pages, and your thoughts may become richer and more detailed than the author's own writing. That way, you don't just learn about the world and experience the author's life through a book; you also come to know yourself anew. But reading can only become a pleasure if you approach it with sincerity. If reading makes you nobler, wiser, kinder, and mo

Excellent Xianxia Novels with Plenty to Read: Must-Reads for Veteran Bookworms
I try to recommend books that aren't popular. ﹋o﹋ Honestly, it's hard to decide. Some books stop being obscure once they hit a million words. Sigh. Novels under a million words aren't satisfying to read, but with most novels over a million words, I don't really care how they continue. Of course, that's just based on my own experience, and it's also how I choose books for this list. No matter how good a book is, I won't recommend it unless I'm sure it will exceed a million words. Haha. (๑ºั╰╯ºั๑)
Immortal-Grade Novels with First-Rate Plots!
All I want is a good plot! I can’t get through the novels on the rankings anymore. They’re all the same: fight monsters, level up, kill for treasure, go to auctions and competitions. So here are some unconventional xianxia novels that stand out from the rest. Different, with a rosy glow. How about it?
Dark Fiction Online
No female lead, sound logic, and protagonists who can kill, submit, or become nightmares.
A Booklist of Fun Reads
A handpicked collection of imaginative books. I'm not very good at writing recommendations, so I usually just give you the keywords. Please follow the list!
Books with Smart Characters
The books on this list are for readers with some years and life experience under their belts! The characters are intelligent, and the stories are thought-provoking, with few feel-good moments. If that's not your thing, feel free to move along. I prefer realistic writing that doesn't treat readers like idiots, and stories rich in wisdom about life. This is a niche list, but the stories here are excellent, with vivid characters and ensemble casts full of life.
Books With Great Ensemble Casts!
I've noticed that novels that write even the supporting characters well are often really enjoyable. Say goodbye to lonely journeys focused only on the protagonist! I only recommend stories with great supporting characters! I only recommend stories with great supporting characters! I only recommend stories with great supporting characters!

I am 41 years old this year, and my only wish is to read this book before I retire.
Maybe the author forgot the Qidian account 😂😂
Haha, twenty years have passed in the blink of an eye, and the book is still there, leaving a paw print. If it is still there in the next twenty years, I will burn incense again. . . .
Licking dogs also have tempers! ! I have decided! Lick for another three years! ! I will stop licking after 20 years... I will almost retire if I lick again...
The hole was dug in 2003, filled in for a while in 2009, filled in for a while in 2013, filled for a while in 2016, and took a leave of absence due to illness in 2026. Do you know that I am about to run 5?
Update posting time
Tentative weekly update, every Monday at 6am. Updates will be added from time to time. Keep in touch with old friends and new friends, no need to stay up late waiting for updates.
Great book! Some people actually feel complacent about not reading eunuch books such as "The Copper Furnace in Troubled Times" and "The Road to the Leader of the Cultivation Sect". They think they show their individuality and say that the quality of the works is obvious based on the high-quality labels that have no starting point. It's also irritating, I actually fell to the point of coming to the starting point to watch them talk.
I was surprised when I read the book posts. The comment section of a book that has been discontinued for such a long time is still so active.
Brother Thirteen, I started looking at copper furnaces in 2004, and it's been 19 years now. I don't mind your slow update, good works must be carefully crafted! Every year I go online to search for news about copper furnaces. It has been 15 years. Are you worthy of these book fans who never give up?
When I read this book more than ten years ago, I thought it was a rare masterpiece. When I read it again more than ten years later, I found that no matter in terms of setting or intention, this book could not match the current masterpieces. The settings of today's masterpieces are sophisticated and rigorous, and everything from social forms to magic and martial arts must be logical and self-consistent. However, this book is still at the level of Jin Yong's era in essence. The concept of this book was originally very good. The words "Bronze Furnace in Troubled Times" itself contain deep sorrow. However, the writing of the novel is miserable for the sake of sorrow. The author used too many unrealistic plots to forcefully exaggerate it. In short, it is right not to update it. Internet novels keep pace with the times.
