Tomorrow, my book will be featured on the homepage. Honestly, I'm still pretty excited.
First, I should thank my chief editor, ZENK. When I was choosing what kind of book to write next, I was somewhat unsure. It was after reading Editor Z's Martial Lecture Hall series that I finally decided to write a wuxia novel.
I also want to thank my editor, Stars. We don't communicate very often, but from the day this book was published until now, I've never missed out on any of the recommendations I should have received. Whenever a problem comes up, Stars helps me solve it right away. Truly a very responsible editor.
Of course, I should be most grateful to the readers who have supported me all this time and kept subscribing. I really do appreciate you.
For a mid-to-lower-tier writer like me, subscriptions are my livelihood. That makes my readers the people who put food on my table. This book still has plenty of shortcomings, and I'm grateful for your patience and understanding.
Lastly, I'd like to say a little about wuxia. A reader once jokingly commented that every author who writes wuxia says they do it for the love of the genre. It was a joke, but I think it's true.
Wuxia isn't just something authors feel passionately about. It's also a passion that has accompanied our generation.
For me, wuxia was there throughout my journey from boyhood to young adulthood.
From Jin-Gu-Liang-Huang-Wen when I was little, to the new-school wuxia of Legend of Past and Present, and later, Feng Ge, Xiao Duan, and Shi Weihan.
I'll never forget the awe I felt when I first read about Little Li the Scholar's lonely blade and Lord of White Cloud City's Flying Immortal Sword Strike.
Perhaps fantasy has bigger, more spectacular worlds
