Answer 1

The length of a long novel varied according to the subject matter, style, and other factors, but it was usually more than a few million words.

Some well-known web novels such as " Battle Through the Heavens "," The Selection of the Heavens ", and " The Full-time Expert " had more than 10 million words. Some of the longer classic novels, such as Dream of the Red Chamber, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and Water Margins, had more than a few million words.
