Patriarch is Taking Concubines Again! Chapter 195 Discussion

As a cultivation story this is fine. The protagonist starts out weak and gradually becomes stronger via his unique mechanic and as he becomes stronger his actions expand in scope until he's participating in major events and eventually leading multiple sects in battle.

Despite this story having the "harem" tag there is very little actual harem content. The members of the harem only described to the extent which is necessary for the plot so they don't take over the story with drama as with many other harem stories.

The reason I've rated this a 3 instead of a 4 or 5 is because of the translation. It's not too bad in the early chapters but over time the editing gets increasingly bad and it really make it annoying to read. At least once per chapter a sentence will be mistranslated with a precisely backwards meaning, for example:

Spoiler

Originally, this guy is from the Sea Clan, but I suspect there’s also human heritage in him, which most people can’t recognize.

[collapse]

should be:

Spoiler

Originally, this guy is a human, but I suspect there’s also Sea Clan heritage in him, which most people can’t recognize.

[collapse]

You can't just read and enjoy this story since your immersion will constantly be broken by the errors. Additionally the translation of names is incredibly inconsistent as is the translation of cultivation ranks. The fourth rank is translated as "nascent soul" and so is the fifth rank, meaning you get to enjoy many chapters talking about a character reaching the peak of nascent soul and preparing to break through to nascent soul or fighting a nascent soul opponent despite only being at the nascent soul rank himself. It's a mess and ruins the reading experience.
