    Does anyone know about Jun Jiuling? It's obviously a great book. Was it dropped by the author or the translator? I can't find beyond Chapter 222. Thanks for your answer.

    It must have been dropped by the translator (?) since it was already completed.

    I remember it being one of the best ever CN I had ever read, especially from a female perspective. Had to drop it due to the QI wars, but it is an absolute shame that it is being neglected. QI should really recognize which are the actual gems under its catalogue.

    It's really a gem. I don't always read historical novels because of the drama in the harem but Jun Jiuling was so different.

    I tried to read its raws but couldn't read for more than ten chapters. It was absolutely enjoyable in english but machine translation makes it so tasteless that i dropped it. It often happen in novel that have historical theme.

    the translation quality was really stand alone. And the banter was what kept it so fresh. it is a pity, what happened to it.

    I really like historically themed novels but unfortunately only a few of them are translated properly. Like Unruly Phoenix Xiaoyao and Heroic Wife Reborn have amazing translation which have small amount of chinese word that makes novel interesting.

    Sadly, no. It's just so good as a novel. I put up a pickup request a few months ago but no one is going to pick it up because of you know what

    Aw, I recall that this was one of QI's really interesting OG novels. So they just let it peter out?
