All the disappointments that I had while reading Wuxia/Xianxia works. Especially Er Gen's endings. I vowed to myself to never do what he does.

If I understand correctly, Wuxia is the "official" term for "wire-fu" effects in movies - characters fighting up walls, bouncing off of leaves, cutting drops of water in half stuff. Xanxia is the written form. But I may have this wrong.

I don't need sources.

I approach it like the Ubisoft approaches history - i.e. I am making things up then claim experts did it!
