Novels | Wuxiaworld

Zhang Sheng, a peerless prodigy, was just going about his business when he accidentally altered the fate of Wei Yuan, a baby boy who had just been born in the Wei estate. Their karmas became permanently bound since, and the master and disciple would eventually go on to change the world.

As the author’s unserious synopsis summarized rather succinctly, this is a novel about an industrial revolution unfolding in a Xianxia world. The beginning of the story starts off in what seems like another Xianxia/Wuxia world, but it quickly becomes apparent that things aren't quite what they seem. If you pay close attention, you'll notice sprinkles of “Huh?” here and there that keeps you intrigued. I really don’t want to spoil anything, but let's say it's something like finding a digital watch in the Middle Ages. Later, in two hundred chapters or less if memory serves me right, Wei Yuan would stumble upon one of the sources of the incongruity and open his eyes to the almighty power of industrialization. From that point onward, it's it’s “Oh? You’re bringing a sword to a gunfight? How cannon of you!”, baby!

Official Blurb

Wei Yuan had no grand ambitions, but swept along by the currents of his era, he found himself marching across the land and conquering new territories until he had traversed every mountain and pass, all before he grew old.

Unserious synopsis 1: Even immortals are afraid of industrialization! This is an industrial revolution unfolding in a fantasy world.
