Answer 1

The Wind and Cloud novel and manga were different art forms, but there was some relationship between them.

In the novel Wind and Cloud, the protagonist, Nie Feng, was a legendary figure whose story ran through the entire world. In the manga Wind and Cloud, Nie Feng was a main character, and his story ran through the entire manga.

Nie Feng was a character in both novels and comics, but the storyline and character would be slightly different. For example, in the manga, Nie Feng's image was more mature and steady, and his way of life and philosophy of life were also richer. In the novel, Nie Feng was younger and more impulsive. His life experience was relatively simple.

Both novels and comics were manifestations of Wind and Cloud's IP. They presented different styles and content through different art forms.
