Meet Gu Yu—a college dropout and a talented incense maker, and at the same time, the rather stoic protagonist of this story. Despite his somewhat introverted manner, he has a tendency to make sarcastic remarks in his thoughts. One day, after saving a squirrel, a windfall (metaphorically and literally) dropped into his lap.Stumbling into the cultivation world with little help, he was not turned into Superman overnight (as he would like). Apparently, becoming a cultivator would not make your life easier, at least in the beginning.
Somewhere along the road, he ran into Jiang Xiaozhai, a young woman who’s got the brains, the beauty, and maybe one or two secrets of her own. As it turned out, the two made a perfect team—Mulder-and-Scully style. Motivated by many unanswered questions, they had been running up and down the country, getting into all kinds of trouble, and learning more of the modern cultivation world, which is by no means the same as in the ages long past…

I just f***** hate her. (I know it's all subjective and s***, but go to hell "writer".)
P.S.It's really dumb practice to attribute the merits of translators to a novel. Most of the time, it not deserve it.
First things first, there probably isn't going to be any additional summary any time soon, so I'm going to write a few words about the novel.
First, let's discuss the score. TL Quality and Update Stability... duh, of course it's 5 ^^ Well, to be honest, having read barely a few dozen chapters, it's too hard to say whether it's going to be good or awesome but the fact that the author didn't screw up at the beginning and did rather well is already quite good.
So, let me say a few worlds about the story. The premise is that we have an average (more or less) guy who gets (not right away at the beginning though) an opportunity to become a cultivator. As the story is written by a woman, our male protagonist doesn't really resemble the arrogant Xianxia MCs (at least not yet), and feels more real, though the contrast may be a bit too big. Also, there is at least one love interest who seems like she'll stay in the spotlight as someone equal to MC instead of being shelved such as most male authors do, but it's too early to say whether it will be harem, love ******** or single love interest novel yet (my guess is that it isn't going to be harem). Generally speaking, at least so far, the characters aren't 1-dimensional and the author does a good job dealing with some annoying tropes common in Xianxia, perhaps because she's female and isn't (as) contaminated by those garbage tropes.
Also, some may think that having a female author may be a drawback, but I assure that it's a normal story for male (or any) audience. It's definitely different, both the story and the writing style, but it doesn't get in the way of reading at all. Perhaps the only drawback would be the info dumps, but they're rare (I can recall something like three, four chapters--not whole chapters, either--out of sixty) and so far never repeated. As for the plot itself, it's still to early to tell since the author didn't reveal much yet at the point when I'm reading, but looks promising. Not sure what else to write about so I'll keep it at this. Oh, I'll just mention that the pace of the story doesn't seem to be too fast, but neither is it very slow.
Though it is indeed a slow paced novel, the reason for that is it is narrated in a very detailed manner. Mind you, the more narrated the novel, more is the foundation stable with less plot holes and we are also able to see the insight of the auhor.
Don't be bothered by the cover pic cause the both MC's are 100 times better than that in appearance. Plus female MC is my no chance a lol.
So, don't be afraid and read the novel !!!
Cause it will he worth it :)
I'm sad now.
Will wait for future updates, I hope someone raises this novel from the dead. I'll be waiting because I'm sick of MTLs.
