"The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" was originally serialized on Langchao Reading as a web novel. At the very beginning, it made virtually no impact, drawing very few readers and a pitiful number of clicks.
Yet true gold survives the sifting sands, and the brilliance of this novel—which pioneered a new style of wuxia—could not be permanently obscured. It won the devotion of a core group of readers, spread rapidly across the virtual world, and ultimately went to massive print.
To date, "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" has been reprinted five times, with total circulation exceeding ten million copies. It has also been translated into multiple languages for overseas publication, amassing countless fans.
