This is like the gender reverse of the typical wuxia story (and associated tropes). Where there's usually a boy ("the chosen one") who's naturally talented, gets embroiled in conspiracies, has a number of improbable encounters with highly skilled martial artists, rescues a princess or two along the way, before either founding a new sect / bring glory to / taking over their own sect -- in this story there's a naturally talented girl who got embroiled in conspiracies, had a number of improbable encounters with highly skilled martial artists, rescued a prince along the way, before becoming the hope of her sect. The prince, also future love interest, is featured with the exact same frequency as a typical love interest in a wuxia novel. There is supporting love interest that occurs with also the expected frequency and has the expected sort of ending -- but all the love interest are written with the same depth that you'd only see in the better wuxia novels, despite of their relatively brief screen time. The conspiracy is quite good -- it's on the level of mental engagement as some of the better detective / suspense novels. I don't usually even like wuxia that much as a genre but I would like it so much more if there were more books like this.
Also RIP all the swords that were sacrificed in this novel -- this continuing narrative thread is HILARIOUS.

Really impressive express of chinese heroes in the old times. Not only Fei's legendary life experience has put me into it, the relationship between Fei and Yun strongly touched me when Yun was gradually become serious toward the end. He knew that he can't smile and giggle like before anymore. Since he met Fei, he faced lot of things that he was avoiding for many years. His identity, health, and the big secrets that many people desire for. Their relationship was very mature and deep. Compare to some of the books, Legend of Fei has fully expressed how Fei and Yun faced dangerous times and solved together with cooperation. Every time they overcame a obstacle, it was progressively building their affection little by little. I believe for all of this book's reader, we can fully see how strong Fei and Yun want to accompany each other. Due to I can feel how tough they have gone through in the story, I was deeply touched and impressed by their undergo.

I started reading this novel years ago, but had to stop because it wasn't completely translated. So now it was such a joy to be able to read it in one go, it's one of my favorite novels by Priest, and at this point, it's become quite obvious that they're one of my favorite writers nowadays, so that means a lot. The reason might be because I love wuxia as a genre, not sure why, I just really adore it, I think ever since I was a tiny blurb of a human I've felt pretty close to its ideals, the whole struggle for justice and sacrifice all for what you believe just really sticks to me, honor, righteousness, it's such a common place, but truly resonates with me, and the lifestyle, so free in conventional terms, but so strict in term of your own values, it's just truly captivating.
And Priest is amazing, they can write anything and make it work, modern dark fantasy, crime, sci fi, wuxia, steampunk dystopias, theology with zero romance, it's all just so damn good, beautifully written, with deep well thought plots and so much intrigue yet also poetry and brains, perfect.
Even in this novel, which is a real wuxia example with all its usual tropes and twists, the mystery is fascinating and I really didn't see it coming until its revelation, even if I had read part of the novel before and I think I also saw the drama adaptation some years back, still, had no idea until the end.
Legend of Fei follows the adventures of heroine Zhou Fei after she leaves her secluded home in the mountain in which 48 sects live and train together, she has an important legacy behind, as her grandfather was a legendary martial artist and she follows on his steps somehow, perfecting his technique with the saber along with the style of some old masters that cross her way and impart their teachings to her one way or another. As a backdrop to her martial progress (and it's a novel heavily focused on that subject) there's a mystery from the old dynasty that involves legendary martial masters, sects and the court, while the north and southern reigns fight to conquer and unify the land and she and her friends get involved in all the drama as she fights to remain loyal to her values, her predecessors and protect those she love as she discovers her own path.
I love all characters in this novel, all generations, the goodies and also those that walk a darker less orthodox path, well, not those from the royal families, but everyone else.
This reading was an enchanting journey and I'm just really sad to see it end, but I took my sweet time and, as often happens to me with Priest works, I'm sure I'll reread it again someday.
Obviously, this novel is perfect for fans of Chinese novels, wuxia and Priest, but as I said before, it focuses heavily on martial arts, so if you're not into that it might not be for you.

(my rating is for Book One only bc I'm reading along with the English fan translation and I'm pausing for now until more of that has released. webnovel listings on goodreads are a bit of a mess)

四本中只看了第一本少年游。看了四分之一，还不知道故事的走向，铺垫可能太长了吧，而且情节也不够精彩。暂时搁着，以后再说。

剧情实在是太无聊了，除了两个主角人物立起来了之外磕磕cp，其他角色面目太模糊了，而且剧情完全没详略，看打架都能看困我。

刚开始看得兴趣寥寥，但进入了《有匪》的武侠世界后，对其中的每一个人物，都觉得有想要去了解TA一生的冲动。
P大将武侠世界铺开，金句频出，也会引起思考。或许对于人生、对于学习，没有什么生出来就想要的。只是被家世、被际遇推着，才生出那种想要出人头地的想法。
这个过程中，有人走歪了，但更多的人在碌碌无为中度过了一生，第二种没有什么不好，甚至是一种幸福。还有一种，就如书中主角和一众配角一般，朝着自己的想法，一头扎进去，往前冲，头破血流也好，不枉来世上一遭。连已然看淡命运一般的谢允，也终究被周翡感染。
最让我触动的自然还是周翡，她很容易让我联想到自己。过了十四五年安心的日子，每日练功，不觉得有什么对，也不觉得有什么不对。有一日迈出家门，在社会的历练中，逐渐成长，逼着她成长。我特别喜欢有一句话，觉得自己还需要再回去修炼一番，才能来打，但被推到了那个点，只能“假装”自己可以，这种盲目的自信，有时候也是一种力量，一点鸡血。凭着这股气，往前，再往前。嗯，我也需要这点东西。

晋江上刚完结时就看过，然而几年之后对剧情已经没什么印象，这几天才又想起来再看一遍。现在觉得也还好，不过不像上次那么喜欢。
女主周翡的形象还是很吸引人，不服输的精神和韧性给人印象极深刻，剧情中数次开金手指，作为升级的必要条件也还算是能让人接受。但是后期成了高手以后就显得隔着一层面纱一样，显得有点陌生。
剧情主线上能理解探究前尘往事是贯穿始终的核心，但“厉害前辈”似乎太多太杂，到了后期我把那几个用刀的有点搞混，后来就干脆放弃了。
文笔方面这回是看得出来priest近几年又进步了，这篇显然是还不如几篇新作lol……有些部分炫技得实在突兀，几年前第一次看还觉得她文笔很好是我还读书少看不出来吗（。
整体……现在觉得也就一般哎，不难看但也没有让我感觉非常好。看到有扫文号说《有匪》是武侠里仅次于金庸的水平，觉得说得过了。

Interesting plot and rich characters. But somehow it can be a bit boring because of Zhou Fei's one-dimensional character. Xie Yun made everything more interesting and rich, but again this book doesn't really give you the feeling that you must finish it in one day.
But overall it is definitely worth to read!

格局之大气广阔远超晋江上的网文。文笔细腻深刻，云淡风轻地写出江湖中的山高路远，庙堂上的暗流涌动。每个人物都刻画鲜明，立意不仅仅是江湖中的儿女情长，更是乱事之中的个人成长，也是在国仇家恨中如何找到让自己心安的处事之道，找到那吾心归处是吾乡的那一隅净土。

我看武侠是老手，所以这本的武侠部分看出了不少冗余之处。不过它的确是不错的武侠。江湖与庙堂的局布得周密。佩服。如果能敢敢让谢允在三分之二处挂掉，说不定会比现在这样更好。大女主我是支持的。

Entertaining coming-of-age martial arts story with a good plot and rich characters. 故事、文筆和人物塑造都不錯，武俠就要好看，有熱血，有成長，有俠氣，本書做到了。

Didn't want it to end.
