I asked Chatgpt why the novel was cancelled and here what it says
⚠️ Reasons for Cancellation
1. Anti-State & Anti-System Themes
• The main character, Fang Yuan, is a ruthless anti-hero whose philosophy and actions challenge authoritarian structures. Discussions of fighting oppressive regimes and mocking corrupt ruling classes resonated too strongly with political censors  .
• One user noted:
“the MC basically explains the FACTS that CCP princelings have… and CCP hates that” .
2. Content Close to the “Censoring Line”
• It contained explicit violence, gore, and depictions of villainous main characters, which the state deems “inappropriate” for youth ().
• It also reportedly used names or traits reminiscent of real political figures—this made it especially sensitive .
3. Government Clean-Up Operations
• The novel was caught up in one of China’s “clean-up campaigns” (清朗行动), aimed at eliminating undesirable cultural products .
• Notably, entire Baidu articles and search results related to the novel were scrubbed, indicating a deliberate and systemic suppression
