The translation is good! The story is interesting, the start is a bit confusing but carry on it is worth it. The comedy in the story is mostly done well and you will get laughs from time to time. The plot is intriguing and you will want to read more. The OPness is controlled and the characters are 2.5D.It is not perfect tho, the comedy is sometimes overshadows serious moments which ruins the build up and mostly a hindrance to the story (annoying at around V7-V8). The cross dressing of one of the characters is used as a running joke which can become annoying. And for a shameless/pe*verted MC he is too bound with tradition and values causes inconsistency but for sake of drama can be accepted. He is slowly opening up to harem and romance but it gets someone draggy at times.Overall, the series has some key stuff missing but it also has many positives that I am willing to ignore most of the negative. This is not the typical cultivation novel but a somewhat more grounded version that works (Read it and you will understand.) The story is worth a read, specially for those that are bored with "normal" Cultivation stories and normally can guess most of the plot of novel based on few chapters. It deserves more then 4 starts so actual ranking should be (4.1) Spoiler
PS I hate the emperor I find him annoying and unworthy, he meddles in everything and I think that Capitan Shen is forced to become that idiot's Fiancé so the emperor doesn't force a marriage on her. Most of the time his good deed ruins something important and he is a giant hypocrite considering how much he can turn a blind eye to his sons and daughters. He is useless but for some reason he is written and praised to be best emperor ever.
