Let me tell you about the inspiration for this book. I am a person who likes playing games and I have played quite a few games before, but if someone asks me which is my favorite game, I will give two answers without hesitation.
In my mind, my favorite Western game is "Heroes of Might and Magic 3". Of course, what we are going to talk about today is not Heroes of Might and Magic, but another game, which is also my favorite Eastern game, called "Xuan-Yuan Sword 3: Scar of Sky".
Recalling the story of Scar of Sky still brings deep emotions. I still remember Chen Jingchou's indecision, Yu'er's determination, and Xiaoxue's tenderness. Although the graphics of games have improved now, there are few games that I can remember after all these years.
My last book was a fantasy story set in a Western setting. As it neared completion, I asked myself, what kind of story should I tell in my next book? Thinking of my favorite games, I had the answer: a fairy tale set in an Eastern setting.
Among the Xianxia (xianxia) genre, I value the word "xia" more than the word "xian." What is a "xia"? It's the deep loyalty and loyalty of someone who promises over three cups, even if the Five Mountains seem light. It's the fearlessness of facing death, even if faced with a thousand enemies. It's the unwavering ambition to sweep across the land and conquer the wilderness. It's the unwavering determination to forge ahead despite knowing there's a tiger in the way.
In the West, such people are generally called heroes. Fortunately, I happen to understand what a hero is.
Let me say something off topic. Some readers may have noticed that the chapter titles of this book are all character names. This is also for the convenience of readers in future reading.
Some people said, I only want to see Xia Wei, I won’t read any chapter without Xia Wei’s appearance, and some people said, I only want to see Nan Linghe, I won’t read any chapter without Nan Linghe’s appearance. I said, I have marked out the main characters for you directly, you can pay attention to the chapter names if necessary.
After the release of the book, the daily update will be at least 6,000. I ask for your support through first-time subscription and monthly votes. Your support is the author's greatest motivation. The Apostle of Mercy thanks you all!
