Features: A "killing game" in a wuxia novel, the Chinese version of "The Girl with the 100 Kills." A successor to the suspenseful wuxia after Gu Long's era, with over 1 million clicks online. "Kill one at ten steps, leave no trace a thousand miles away. After the matter is done, brush off the clothes and vanish into obscurity." A blend of classical Chinese literature and comedic elements from Japanese and Korean dramas. A heavyweight release this year, reviving the distant memory of the spirit of chivalry. Everyone has a world in their heart, everyone dreams of uniting the martial world, but where is the martial world? In fact, the martial world is everywhere. This is an era of killers, and there is only one top killer—the legendary Nie Xiaowu. Nie Xiaowu became the super idol and life goal for everyone, including low-level killers up to those who don’t even qualify as killers. All killers hope that one day they, their children, or their disciples can become a solo version of Nie Xiaowu, receive guidance from Nie Xiaowu, or at least get a glimpse of him. Female killers imagine a night of passion, making their life as killers worthwhile. Myself, my master, my senior and junior brothers/sisters, we are no different. When talking about Nie Xiaowu, we always breathe heavily, our eyes gleam, our cheeks flush, and our hearts surge with excitement—sometimes even more effectively than a fire in the cold winter. Yes, I love this era, love all the killers, and what I love the most is always Nie Xiaowu. Some say he is a killer, some say he is a killer organization, and some even say he is actually a killer organization. I often feel that in this era of killers, Nie Xiaowu is the martial world. I love the stories my grandfather told me. Although the stories were about my father and mother and many others, they were full of bloodshed and violence, yet I found them very interesting—so interesting. If this is a story about the martial world, then it is it that shaped my love and longing for the martial world. Especially Nie Xiaowu, my favorite character, though he or she never truly appeared, always seemed to appear and disappear in the story’s threads, moving freely and effortlessly, every gesture and movement revealing countless mysteries—thank you, mother, for giving me the same name. I love this name, and I love this feeling even more. I often tell myself, I am Nie Xiaowu, no doubt, Nie Xiaowu.
