What is the jianghu?... more>>
It’s blades, it’s martial arts, it’s chivalry and righteousness, it’s gangs and sects, it’s killing and being killed!
Seeking revenge for the smallest grievance, eat or be eaten, this is the iron rule of the jianghu!
In the jianghu there are no absolute winners, all gains come with a cost. At the same time, these gains certainly plant the seeds of destruction!
In a jianghu like this, who can be laughing all the way to the end?
Wang Tianyi, a third-rate character in a fifth-rate school. The real jianghu wil tell him: all goodness and decency is meaningless in the face of interests and profits. As long as there’s a conflict of interest, be it friend or relative, all must make way —- make way for a bloody road paved with lives. In this dark abyss, can he retrieve the light he lost?
Wang Tianyi is the protagonist, but Waning Moon on the Wutong Tree is not the story of a single great xia encountering adventure after adventure one after another, but is the reality through Wang Tianyi’s eyes through his encounters exposing the famous major schools scrambling for power and wealth, scheming against each other through deceit and treachery.
See how Wang Tianyi, reviled and laughed at by his teacher and sectmates, gets to know the young masters of three major dynastic houses and the number-one master in the world. See how he, from a lowly background, on his first foray into the jianghu, triggers bloody carnage in the martial world. See how the major martial world powers, secretly employ ingenious schemes to swallow each other up. Let Waning Moon on the Wutong Tree lead to an understanding of a new world of wuxia!
