    There are three levels of access on Qidian:
    - Free to read
    - Adwalled: Pay spirit stones or watch ad to unlock.
    - Paywalled/Premium: Only unlocked by paying spirit stones.

    Novelupdates will show updates of chapters under the first two levels of access but not the last. Qidian have been slowly making more and more of their series into paywalled/premium novels only, so chances are whatever series you've been following has recently been upgraded to premium status and hence updates for that series no longer show up on Novel Updates.

    I’m pretty sure its because the qidian app has some problems with updates so it's affecting NU
    Every time i access the app it doesn’t update the chapters unless i access them manually so maybe thats why?

    Only the ones that are locked and won't be unlocked ever, wouldn't show up on the NU.

    No longer shows adwalled, since you have to make an account, i'm pretty sure.

    Why would the app affect NU? NovelUpdates doesn't rely on QI's apps for updates, or connects to QI's apps in any way.

    Only ONE is listed on NU. Two had lost its listing when QI made the ads requiring login.

    I’m just saying, although some qidian novels that are neither under adwall or paywall are still being updated like tempest of the stellar war
