The Reticent Blade is, first and foremost, a wuxia novel, meaning that the world and its character’s powers and abilities are more grounded. Instead of cultivators who can soar through the heavens and shatter planets, you will find martial artists who can still perform superhuman feats but not so fantastical as to tear through space or achieve immortality.
The world of The Reticent Blade is one of medieval China, loosely based upon the time period of the Ming Dynasty. It is a time of chaos and strife, where war and death are rampant. We follow the intertwining story of several protagonists and antagonists as they navigate the chaotic times, unraveling the threads that connect the past, the present, and the future of the world.
The Reticent Blade is a story of heroism, love, revenge, and cruelty.
The Reticent Blade is a story of both the righteousness and vileness of the Jianghu.

Official Blurb:
Someone once asked me, "What is the jianghu?"
I thought for a moment, and what came to mind was…
A jug of unrefined wine on a weathered table,
A lone silhouette fading into the distance under the setting sun,
A nameless grave bathed in moonlight,
The smoldering incense in my grasp, its final wisps dissipating.
They then asked me, "Where is the jianghu?"
I smiled faintly and lifted my gaze beyond the window. Out there, beneath the vast heavens, countless jianghus lay.
A single soul carries his own story.
When two paths cross, a jianghu is born.
"The rain wet the sky, ruining it very elegantly."
My name is Su Li, and I am the only male disciple of Yuchang Peak in the past ten thousand years (since the founding of the peak)...
When I was nine years old, my master brought me a junior sister.
When I was ten years old, my master ran away.
That day, I closed the book, my eyes were extremely serious:
"Girl, I see that your forehead is black, and there will be a bloody disaster!"
Other name: "People in the Siheyuan, the system in Tianlong Babu."
The good news: there are systems.
Bad news: the system went to the wrong set!
Ye Xiaonan received a system saying that it could take him to the Siheyuan world.
As a result, he left the system and accidentally went to the neighboring world of Tian Long Ba Bu.
The good news is that he can still connect to the system, the bad news is that something is not right with this mission.

[Main Mission: Host, please build your own faction.]
I have mastered the art of postpartum sow care, so why not work on a pig farm?
So Ye Xiaonan relied on the Tianlong Babu system next door and gradually reached the peak of his life in the courtyard.
Are you kidding me? The title is so straightforward, why would it need a synopsis?
In short, it's all about multiple worlds, the end of the world, various time travels and invasions... you all know what I mean.

He trained militia with Huang Feihong, killed enemies to serve the country, killed Japanese bandits with Chen Zhen, flirted with Jin Xiangyu in the Longmen Inn, and chatted and laughed with Yan Chixia in the Lanruo Temple.
In troubled times, with the help of a system, Li Xiake can freely travel through the worlds of various classic action movies. He rides a horse and wields a spear to wipe out all enemies.

Enter the immortal sect, take charge of the great religion, and cultivate the immortal way.
Others practice diligently, but Li Yunjing can learn it in one go, and his understanding is beyond heaven. He understands the thunder method, steps into immortality, practices the thunder method, and takes the place of heavenly calamity.
Maggots feed on decay, then transform into flies; mountains of corpses and seas of blood give rise to swords of the highest order.
In the late Song and early Yuan dynasties, a distraught Song soldier awakens in the deserts of the Western Regions. Beside him lie countless gruesome skeletons, and in the distance, the young emperor he swore to protect. His past is hazy, his future uncertain.

I have a 1.5 million-word completed novel on Qidian.com called "Portrait of a Mask," and I sincerely guarantee that it will not be abandoned.
The sky is dark, the earth is dark, and humans and ghosts are on the same path.
Gu Xu, with three talents, traveled to a world of cultivation where demons were rampant, and became an ordinary clerk in the Exorcist Department of the Great Qi Dynasty.
He just wanted to practice quietly and seek immortality.
However, he accidentally turned the world upside down.
Wang Lei traveled to a world of advanced martial arts and awakened a simulation system, allowing him to simulate his future life, retaining any positive changes after the simulation.
[You diligently saved money and finally purchased a secret manual. After 10 years of practicing the "Iron Sand Palm" technique, you gained palm power comparable to those in the internal organs refining stage.]
[At the end of this simulation, you gained a positive change that enhanced your palm power, eliminating the negative change that had blocked your palm meridians due to practicing Iron Sand Palm.]
………
After countless simulations, Wang Lei gradually realized that no matter what Sword God, Martial God, or Knife God…… they could all be resolved with a single move.
