Features: This novel was serialized in the magazine Jin Gu Qichang and was ranked as one of the most traditional wuxia works among new wuxia fiction. Master of traditional wuxia, Liang Yusheng, also praised the work highly and happily wrote the title for the book. The author's rich imagination and precise restoration of historical facts make this legendary story, set against the backdrop of ethnic conflicts and national rise and fall in the late Song Dynasty and early Yuan Dynasty, even more grand and dramatic. At the same time, he blends modern thoughts with ancient knowledge, making the story more innovative. The publication of Kunlun is a landmark event in the wuxia literary world in recent years. Several years later, when we look back at the new wuxia of the 21st century on the mainland, we may compare Kunlun to the emergence of Jin Yong's The Legend of the Condor Heroes in 1958. Han Yunbo has known Feng Ge for four years, and three of those years were spent watching him write Kunlun. After Jin Yong, my two favorite wuxia novels are Sun Xiao's The Legend of the Condor Heroes and Feng Ge's Kunlun. Xiao Fei Feng Ge's Kunlun is the wuxia novel most recognized by traditional wuxia fans, and it has even been named a classic.
