I got hooked by the initial translated chapters, decided to go ahead and make do with MTL to see how the rest of the story goes.All I can say is, unlike a lot of entries here in NovelUpdates, this one reads and feels like an ACTUAL novel. For people looking for a lot of action or quick thrills, I'd have to say that this one isn't for you. There aren't a ton of fights, no exploration that suddenly grants uber loot or techniques or merit laws. No sudden enlightenments, no power ups, heck there's hardly any mention of cultivation at all. What we do have is an interesting plot with an MC who's the xianxia equivalent of an experienced undercover / secret agent and has a lot of mysteries of his own.So far, highly recommended (Currently at c138). Hopefully the novel stays on track past the 200+ chapter mark (which is where some erstwhile interesting novels break down).
