Chapter 71: Launch Speech

It's time for the shelves again. This time the shelving will be at 12 noon tomorrow (the 7th). Please note it's noon, not midnight as before. It seems like not many books are being put on the shelves at midnight anymore, I'm a bit unaccustomed to it.

For updates, there will be five chapters added directly, about 15,000 words. Then the 6 o'clock update probably won't happen, and the next day will be three chapters, about 10,000 words like that.

During the initial shelving period, I will try to add more. Emmm, although everyone knows old Wei's stamina doesn't last long, I will try anyway to see if I can reach the daily update of 10,000 words achievement within the first month. This time I didn't participate in the promotion activity. The activity time was really close to the 14,000+ update goal, just a few hundred words short of reaching the standard. As a result, after arranging the activity, I reached the standard within two days... The activity came too late to change it, otherwise I would have had to delay the shelving by a week.

*Scratching head.*

Let's just put it on the shelves first. Looking at this momentum, there should still be an opportunity to give everyone a supplementary promotion later.

Regarding this book, to say it's Spring and Autumn 2.0 is definitely not accurate. There won't be any modern elements invading or transforming the wuxia world, and old Lu will also have a large amount of combat. It's just that his actions will be more inclined towards planning and acting covertly, unlike Zhao Changhe, who is more direct. Old readers all know that I don't like to repeat things from the previous book. After writing Chu Ge, a character focused on home life, the next one was the hero-type Zhao Changhe. After finishing the hero, I will write about Lu Xingzhou, this type of character who is initially inconvenient and must rely more on planning.

So, if you want to call it an intellectual battle text, it's not really accurate. It's just that the protagonist's positioning is different; it's still an upgrade text, with some farming elements added. After all, in this powerful wuxia world, even low-level immortal cultivators' strength is still paramount; relying solely on schemes won't work. Unlike Spring and Autumn, which is more focused on martial arts heroes and doesn't have means like directly cursing people to death, here they do exist. So, Manager Xue can be weak, but old Lu cannot.

As for the female lead, Shen Tang and old Lu are positioned as a kind of mutual redemption. Old Lu's past determined that his thinking would be relatively dark and filled with malice, which is healed by Shen Tang's gentleness and trust. Shen Tang also retreated after being betrayed by her family, and is healed by old Lu, awakening the will to "make them fail," and her character's domineering side also begins to show. Initially, the two were just somewhat empathetic because of similar experiences, and subsequently, their hearts slowly developed in mutual help. This kind of mutual redemption feeling is quite healing. I haven't written this type of relationship before, and I don't know if everyone likes it or not.

As for the little white-haired girl, she is not Mu Jianli. Jianli is not this kind of automaton. A Nuo is even less like Yin Ye. Yin Ye's child form is very pure, while A Nuo's experience determined that she will be very cunning. Later, when she grows up, who knows, she might resemble Qing Wu a bit more... I am always trying to write characters different from the past, and I hope the brothers like them.

Oh right, when writing A Nuo, I was thinking of glutinous rice balls. At that time, I really didn't know there was a joke about Ah Nuo. It made it a bit awkward, feeling like it affected the sense of immersion, scratching my head.

Then let me ask you, then let me ask you, A Nuo, why is your head so round!

For now, these are the only characters with significant plotlines. Others like Ye Tinglan and Yuan Muyu are just side characters, and the plot hasn't reached them at all. Even Gua Mei, who appeared the earliest, hasn't had her plot unfold. So those old bros who looked at the character list and just clamored that there are so many female leads in just a few chapters... emmm, it's hard to comment.

Oh right, there's one thing that's an old trick, I will continue to use the cultivation system from Ask Dao... Many people should have seen it. Overall, writing to here, old Lu has already stood up. The initial small main plot is complete, the golden finger is in place, and next will be a more wonderful and diverse world.

Thank you everyone for your continued support, thank you everyone.
