It's... ok? More like, it's pretty good, but unfortunately the plot is driven by the MC being unnecessarily secretive. Due to the circumstances of their meeting, it's obvious that the wife is a cultivator, but for some asinine reason, the male lead decides to hide the fact he's one too. I mean, yeah, he's OP AF (literally has the entire Heavenly realm terrified of the mention of his name 100 years after he retired), but he could just as easily have let her know he wasn't a mortal, doesn't have to show his full power.So anyway, the little family unit is pretty cute and fluffy, but unfortunately he just refuses to let his wife know anything. So she's constantly in a state of worry and trying to protect him, but he doesn't resolve it at all. And then whenever she passes out (from defending him and stressing her injuries and such) he goes off to curb stomp anyone who looked at her funny.Not to mention, if she had known he was strong, she could have told him who was hunting her - she obviously knows. She just doesn't tell him because, again, she thinks he's a standard mortal and weak. Then it ACTUALLY could have turned into SOL/Romance. Instead it's just her unknowingly playing the clown as she gets worked up, worried, injured, stressed, etc, then he provides comfort and takes care of the issues. Honestly I kinda hate the MC for how he's treating this faithful, adorable wife.Which is a shame, because otherwise he's a pretty chill main lead, and I don't dislike him. The daughter is a cute kid, and the wife is adorable and falling in love slowly. I just wish it wasn't so artificially engineered by his dishonesty. I really want to know when he actually comes clean to her. I have a feeling it won't be for a loooong time though, as evidently the author wants this story to run on misunderstandings and lies. : (
