This is the 2nd novel in the "Sansheng Series" and although it can be read as a stand-alone, I recommend reading the 1st novel before this since it
is a bit of a prequel to the events of this book.
- Sansheng, Wangchuan Wu Shang
- Si Ming
- Demon King
- One Moment of Impulse, Seven Lifetimes of Misfortune
(In my opinion, only the 4th book can be read stand-alone.)
The reason why I'm mentioning the series itself first before the actual novel is because all of the MCs/FLs have somewhat similar temperaments. Of course, in some cases, it's due to external reasons, but each FL has a period of naivety and intellectual blindness. Imo it fits the 1st novel FL Sansheng quite nicely (so straightforward that it's refreshing), but in Si Ming and Demon King (Little Orchid) it can get a bit unbearable. Ironically both of their partners are demons so coincidence? I think not LOL. I do like this novel's ML a lot more than the other books, though.
Plot-wise it's alright. Not good, not bad, there's obviously some nefarious plan underway but it feels a tad dry. ML is the only reason I'm interested tbh.
Here's a bit of a synopsis of what the book is about since the description can be confusing (spoiler of Extra 3 of Sansheng, Wangchuan Wu Shang) :
Spoiler
Si Ming is the God of Fate in the Immortal Realm and fell into the Jade Pond, a wine that leaves gods to sleep for thousands of years. However, she finds herself reincarnated (no memories after consuming Meng Po soup) as Er Sheng. As to how a sleep-inducing wine resulted in her reincarnation, that's a mystery.
She meets Chang Yuan, an ancient divine dragon, and finds herself immediately attached to him, and that's where the story begins.
