This novel mainly focuses on the cultivation world and how the righteous sect fights the upcoming war.
It’s not that plot heavy but it can be a bit long winded. The story is on MC’s POV but its really more about the cultivation world which is also good for a change.
The love story here is non-existent for like 100 chapters. The ML doesn’t even appear after like 20 chapters and when he did, he just got to say 1 sentence lol.
But in its own way, the love story between MC and ML is also very interesting. I love chapters 130-150 because — although their love isn’t really blatant (the story is still more about the culti world) when we get a bit of fluff, it’s really the sweetest!!!!!!!!
Like the ML would just say a lil sweet words but because it’s unexpected or rare, I feel butterflies in my stomach!!!
Another thing I love about this is that ML is the reincarnation of MC’s 2nd disciple but MC treats them as different people which to me is really good cause in most novels, they treat the reincarnation as the same person but here, MC doesn’t.
+ thing that I like is that ML and MC doesn’t get together in an instant, there are a lot of time skips when they go into seclusion so like
SpoilerML confesses and 50 yrs go by without MC giving him an answer
MC says he’ll think about it and another 100 yrs go by
Etc... So ML’s patience is really something! Plus I love how excited he was when MC promised to be Dao partners finally
[collapse]One red flag about this story is (not really a red flag but its bitter)... there seems to be side cps but before those side cps develop, they end in tragedy 🥲 it’s interesting to read about the side cps stories but its so saaaaaad huhu
Spoilerlike the Snake Emperor x Traitor Monk, Wei something x Rui juan, the Snake Brothers etc
[collapse]Anyhoooo, this story is a good read (just don’t expect too much fluff. There’s little fluff but it’s the sweetest)
