    Guys, sorry for asking this question if this question of mine has been answered before, i want to ask you about xianxia world...

    What happen to them? Several of their novel has completely moved from their website, and the old novel that was not affiliated from them again still retain their ToC...

    If this question has been answered before, please provide me a link for the forum, i search for xianxia world but i give up since there were so many unnecessary thread not related to my question...

    Something something Xianxiaworld admin ran an aggregator site on the side and everyone told him to go die in a fire for it. IDK any more than that because I pay basically no attention to chinese novels.

    If I recall correctly, the issue was a bit sordid. Cliff notes is that the group broke up, in a non amiable way, and this was followed by the translators moving on, some of which went to wuxiaworld. This was also at the time that wuxiaworld partnered with Quidan.

    So, xianxiaworld is gone, nothing to see here, move on with your life.

    XianxiaWorld turned into Qidian International, and now they're trying to take over NovelUpdates.

    That would explain the 11 billion Qidian threads every day.

    Quote from the post:
    "Now that is just circumstantial, but it was enough to warrant a deeper look to see if there is a connection. After checking site details as well as talking with WWs people, it was found that one of the previous IPs used by WWCO just directly leads to XXW. Also according to WW, they both use the same provider for mailserver and nameservers and both ips are from the same register. “They even use the same js file with minor modifications, which shows the same calls for their internal API. And even the cookies are the same.” At this point we felt that there is conclusive evidence that whoever is running XXW is also running WWCO."

    A plagiarism of Wuxiaworld.com, run by the Xianxiaworld owner to trick Wuxiaworld viewers into giving him more traffic and thus more ad revenue.

    You should understand by now that the XXW admin is a greedy asshole only concerned with money.
