Well even in the discord there isn't really much news. Basically the current TL is unable to continue since he's busy with work and doesn't have time to translate. They're trying to find a replacement but haven't had any luck so far.
I'm assuming it's edited now since when I read through the chapter it all looked fine.

Thanks for the new chapter. It was an unexpected surprise!
Well since Grasping Evil was released on Qidian that also owns Webnovel it meant they were pretty much forced to to move it there. At first Webnovel offered relatively good terms for translation teams but ever since they've pivoted to poaching authors from Wattpad they've pretty much killed all their translation projects. A lot of good novels have been killed off after Webnovel forced them to move onto their platform and then dropped them cause they weren't making enough money while also promising to DMCA anyone who dared pick it up and not post it on their platform.
I think this complaint is completely unjustified. Unless you can specify where it has been poorly translated/edited it seems to be a baseless claim that they are incompetent. I have seen other translations on Webnovel that aren't great but here I don't really see any issues. The release speed could be higher but at the end of the day if the TL team doesn't make enough to make a living from translations alone then they have to prioritise their day job.
From what I can gather the TL has been MIA for a week or two.
My personal guess is that she's dead. However just like Ning Honghong it is quite likely that she has been reincarnated. Alternatively she could be in stasis awaiting just before death. It is also possible she got refined into the blood wine gourd as that does take blood and her problem was that she lost all of hers...
Totally agree there, I just never thought they were that greedy!
Thanks for the chapter! I suspect if you want to be updated it's best to check the author's note as there are restrictions on webnovel
Last update was on 18th October when TL got in touch to say he wouldn't be able to continue after being MIA for a while after starting a new job that took up most of his time. Rest of the team seems to still be in place but finding someone able and willing to TL the rest is tough.
