方白羽

Fang Baiyu is a Chinese-language author about whom limited public information is available. Three of his works can currently be confirmed, among which the Game Era series and Qianmen: The Legend of Yun Xiang are the better known. Game Era, published in seven volumes, is often classified as otherworld-continent fiction, while Qianmen: The Legend of Yun Xiang, in six volumes, is a martial-arts novel and served as the source material for the television adaptation starring Chen Xiao and Mao Xiaotong. Judging from these works, his writing draws on otherworldly adventure and martial-arts sects, combining fantastical settings with wuxia storytelling, and is marked by large-scale, multi-volume serialization. As details of his life, nationality, and dates remain unrecorded, a fuller picture of his work and literary influence awaits further material.
