It depends on you.
Original Newbie novel
Yea but can u give me an example since I'm a total amateur at this.
Most novels have about 1700-2000 words in each chapter.

Alright thanks for that answer.
Also do you happen to know the average words in chapters for original novels in qidian? Or is it the same with 1700-2000 words?

2000 words is pretty standard for these types of writings. From an artistic and quality aspect, of course the number of words in a chapter ideally would be irrelevant, but from a commercial perspective, standardized chapters for web novels make readers and publishers happy.
So I guess it depends on what you're trying to do.

Maybe you guess can also check out this novel?
I don't usually set a limit or minimum number of words when I write a chapter. But it is usually between 1200 to 1600 for me. Don't think about the word count too much. Just start writing and follow the events of your story. Don't ever let the word count limit you, and don't add useless things to lengthen your chapters.
Just right until you feel that you have a good ending for a chapter, typically a cliff or ending of event. Number of words is up to you but personally I think 1500 works best.
Hey! I'm totally willing to read and review your work if you do the same for my own. Very nice choice of a cover.
