    Default Most/least adaptable wuxia stories?

    Which wuxia stories (by any author) are most easily adaptable to films/TV series and which are least adaptable? By "most adaptable", I mean that they can easily be converted into entertaining films and series, and by "least adaptable", I mean that it is very difficult to turn them into good films/series.

    Technology-wise, no wuxia series would be unadaptable nowadays. Years ago John Lennon said that LOTR was unfilmable by that time standard, well look now how Peter Jackson has made it possible. So, for me with today's film technology, making wuxia series would be no problem. Making good wuxia series, however, is another thing altogether.

    Story-wise, story like Linked Cities maybe least adaptable due to general lack of interest in them. We already know how adaptable DGSD, LOCH, ROCH, SOD, and DOMD are.

    In terms of number of adaptations, seems that the condor trilogy has the most
