This is your new blogger evility, saluting you all with some juicy, recently released information from the XianJian 5 official websites.
The website has released a very vague sketch of the game background, which, as evility can see, has not been translated. She should attempt to do so now.
The ancient Blood Clan reawakens. Human nature and demonic hearts, fates and blood relations, morality and true love – when they are spread out in front of you, how shall you cope? A thousand-year-old seal, and the Well of Gods and Demons that connects two worlds, become the crucial junctions that will tremor the Six Worlds, as the fates of all intertwine.
Four people with difference secrets cross paths, and peaceful lives become ripe with turbulent adventures. The truth is not always perceivable by the eyes, and for the one you love, you will never turn back – not even if your tasks will throw you beyond God’s redemption. There only remains faith as you take on the harsh truth; strive for a present life without regrets, and hope to reinstate the love in the next life.
Even just from this roughly translated summary, evility can see that this new installment of XianJian would be just as exciting as well as heartbreaking as most of the other games in the series. And just a few days ago, on January 28th, the website finally loaded all four main characters on the web. Each seems interesting, and full of secrets of their own, waiting to be discovered by us the players. Jiang Yun Fan 姜云凡, Tang Yu Rou 唐雨柔, Long You 龙幽, and Xiao Man 小蛮 – what sort of story should revolve around them? It surely is something to watch out for, and, of course, evility will drop words hear as soon as she catches a glimpse of the official release date.
Long You’s and Xiao Man’s sketches, as well as sketches of some minor characters, are already posted in the blog entries here by Chibi Jennifer. Because a LOT of characters (and I mean a LOT) have been released since the related last post, evility will start today with some minor characters. Tomorrow I will upload more minor characters and some bosses, and the day after, the last two main characters.

Well, evility has to say, she likes Wei Yang the best, but of course everybody else looks just as good and interesting. As you can see, although they have released many characters, a lot about these characters still remain mysterious. This evility definitely cannot wait to find out more!
But before that, keep your eyes out these few days for evility’s posts about the other characters that have been released (if I posted them all in one post, it would’ve been WAYYY too long…). I’m sure you’d like to know more about Jiang Yun Fan and Tang Yu Rou, do you not ;)?
And at last, salutations encore to you all! Evility will try her best to keep you updated with any juicy XianJian game news ;).
