This BL novel is pretty good. Don't be fooled by the cartoon image at the top of the page -- this has a serious story, and the characters and story progression are more believable/realistic than some others.

Summary:

JiYuan, a good-for-nothing young master in the modern world, dies of alcohol poisoning and is reborn in an ancient fantasy world. The body he has taken over is a beautiful woman who was captured by the demon lord, just before she was going to be forced to marry a villainous man. But no one... more>> knows that the cold-faced miss is actually a "mister"...

When he's reborn, JiYuan is informed by the disembodied voice, "System, " that he must complete tasks for his new body's character in order to survive. Additionally, any actions deemed too OOC ("out of character") will result in his soul being eradicated.

Characters:

Usually, I like to write a detailed character description for the main characters, but I feel like too many details will give the interesting twists in the plot away. So for now, you'll have to make due with this:

    • The main character, JiYuan, is believable and not annoying. He behaves realistically for someone who suddenly died and was reborn in a strange world, and appropriately for the limitations "System" placed upon him. His change in mindset/perspective over time is gradual and makes sense.
    • The male lead, Ye Junchi, is devilishly handsome, mysterious, and dedicated, but he's also well-grounded. His character is consistent, and I appreciate the fact that even though he's domineering and possessive, he's not as "rapey" as many other BL men.
    • "System" is a surprisingly good character -- instead of a robotic voice or appraisal/stats screen, it's actually an artificial intelligence that interacts with the MC. Their conversations are comedic and System's "advice" add a unique aspect to the story.
Writing:

    • The story has an overarching crime-solving/mystery plot -- where the main characters are framed for a crime and spend the novel finding answers to resolve it -- but don't worry, the tone isn't too "detective" or "crime show"-like.
    • This BL story is steamy but not smutty. In comparison to many other stories, this one is pretty tame. PG-13, maybe, but not R.
    • The translation quality is good. A couple of minor errors here and there, but barely noticeable. Overall, it's very good, and much better than MTL.
Update:

The ending felt a bit rushed and didn't have as much tension as in the beginning of the story. I sort of lost interest in the last 5-10 chapters. I think I'm going to change my rating of this story to 4.5 stars, only because the ending felt lackluster. <<less

This novel is beautifully done~ This is one of my fav novels out there ~

The plot mainly about solving a killer case (it suits with the description) and finding clue that will lead into a major case.

The author also makes stories about their pasts and how their personality became like that.

Author also makes the supporting characters not some 'masses-produced-personality'. All of them have their own personality.

I had some mixed feelings about this novel. It starts off with a good intro and world building, picks up a bit once they
Spoiler

get to the human world

[collapse]
then slows down again when the story drops a lot of background information on the reader, and finally picks up at the end again. It felt like there were random details that you could piece together, but then the story drops an explanation on you and it feels a bit redundant. The absolute best thing about this novel is the banter between the System and the MC. The MC is pretty smart. While he's limited by certain rules, he finds ways to work around them, which lead to some really funny and awkward situations. The ML is super chill but he loves to flirt with his little beauty. The MC and ML's backgrounds both suited them well but somehow I didn't feel it was weaved into the story very well. It was THERE but somehow I felt when it wasn't specifically needed, it kind of got pushed to the corner of my mind to gather dust, until it got dusted off for the plot. The characters are all unique, and add to the flavor of the story, but I wish we got to see more of them in the ending. The author also makes a halfhearted attempt at the end to finish up all the tasks.
Spoiler

We never actually get to see the moment JiYuan is finally freed from the system, but we can guess that he is freed in the last chapter.

[collapse]

Spoiler

The lack of explicit s*x scenes made me feel frustrated, not only because it would cut off RIGHT WHEN THEY DO IT, (IS THIS CENSORSHIP AH?) but also because I felt for a really long time that Ye Junchi was one-sidedly chasing JiYuan and that just didn't feel fair. I felt like maybe in bed JiYuan would act a bit differently and I really wanted to see it. Later they have cute scenes together that make up for it and shows JiYuan really did fall for Ye Junchi, he just has to show his love gradually because of the OOC limitation.

[collapse]

Final thoughts: Started off strong, dragged on, 7/10.

It's not the worst, but it's not the best so 3 stars. If you want to read a good BL novel where the ML bullies the MC then try either The Legendary Master's Wife or Counterattack of a White Lotus. If you want one with a bit of mystery then go with The Founder of Diabolism. Now for the review:

Writing wise I don't like how the story interposes the MC talking with the System in every scene. It's difficult to get into a scene when there are whole conversations the... more>> MC has with the System that no one else in the scene can hear. It basically feels like whatever action is happening just stops and so the flow of the story is pretty jarring.

Character wise the System really limits any kind of character development of the MC. You could say that the character that develops the most in the story is the System. The MC and the ML are the typical versions of the ML bullying MC cliche; there's just nothing really original in how the author writes the cliche.

Translation wise the translation needs an editor. It's readable and I'm thankful for that but to improve readability it needs to be edited. A personal pet peeve are translator interruptions in a story like if it's truly difficult to understand who's acting out which action in a paragraph then I'd prefer just replacing the "he" with the name rather than "he (name)."

So yes, 3/5. <<less

I AM IN LOVE . This is so adorable!!! This plot is really quite unique with how ye junchi is so tolerable. Quite a unique plot too!!! I secretly suspect that system is in love with the MC but this is just my guess I might be wrong.

WARNING! Chapter 59 is not whole! The end which the translator has (You jump - I jump) is fake! It's about only one half of the chapter! The story is cute. The translator is hell on Earth, impossible to read.

Many mistakes make it very difficult to understand the text sometimes but that's not the main issue.

Th most horrible of all is that the translator shares her ideas on the novel all the time, there's more text from her then from the actual novel.

She makes numerous remarks which completely ruin the... more>> atmosphere and prevent from smooth reading.

She also started posting pictures from irrelevant manhuas inside the text (like two modern schoolboys kissing).
I honestly do not think that such texts should be allowed to enter NovelUpdates base. It is not a translation, it is somebody's attempt to get attention from people and chat with them. <<less

Love this novel, I find it fun and easy to read. The characters are interesting and all have their own personalities and back stories. The main plot is interesting and serious (it's a mu*der mystery and framing situation that MC is try to solve with the help of others) but the author relieves the tension with the main character and side characters actions and inner thoughts. The main character is actually gay and not a man forced into a same s*x situation, which is nice, there are too many stories... more>> out there that are forcing MC and this is NOT one of them. This story is funny at times and serious at others and it keeps me coming back to read more. <<less

A cute and fluffy novel

I'm truly amazed by the plot progression. I expected it to be more on romance rather on plot but it's not. The 2 are balanced and well-translated.

Spoiler

In the start, I'm kind of irked on the MC for being "hard to get" too much afraid of being OOC even just by the smallest actions.

One of my fave BL novel. It was really fluffy and cute. The ML especially is soo cute that you will not believe that he is a ruthless evil cold blooded demon king.

Here a little spoiler

... more>>
Spoiler

there is some reviewer said that the MC got no free will or something. I tell ya guys, this free will thingy or whatsoever will be manipulate by MC that he can control the system. N its not like the things that the system told MC to do is dark. It is more to comedy. Like run away from ML, steal smthg from ML. Also there are no r*pe... For goodness sake look at the tag be4 say something. After all ML is a straight.... Well b4 he met MC. Hehehe.

I had to leave a review after seeing the translators rant about the previous review here. I personally think the translator is doing a wonderful job translating. There was no problems with the idioms, very easy to understand. I hope that the translator can keep up the pace, it's gives me a happy feeling seeing this story updated.

I am someone who hates reading about a powerless MC but somehow even though the MC has limited abilities it doesn't irritate me and is part of the comedy. Also it seems that... more>> the MC is gaining more ability to adjust accomplishing his tasks. I have to really disagree that there is any sort of r*pe in this story (sadly) if ur looking for dark this isn't quite it. <<less

Story-

Not a bad read, fun story to pass the time, but easily forgettable. Probably will read it again in a few years and have a vague sense of familiarity lol. I had put off reading this for a while because I'm not that big into "system" stories but I actually found his banter with the system amusing, but it did drag a bit. Some of the chapters didn't flow nicely either and the OOC stuff was getting kind of old.

... more>>
Spoiler

I did find it refreshing that he was gay to begin with so no, "omg what is happening to me, I like men" issues. I also loved the part where he felt up the ML.

[collapse]

If I could I would give it a solid 3.5 worth the read if you have time.

Translation-

First of all I want to say, I do appreciate all the work that goes into translating for us. That being said I also found it in bad taste that the translator called out a reviewer on their site and since then, the review has been deleted? I think everyone should be entitled to their opinions and shouldn't be coerced or shamed for it.

I didn't have the issue with the translator notes in the middle of the story like others. I would rather them then foot notes. I hate having to scroll to the bottom to see whatever it was for. For the explanations on certain Chinese terms which I already have been exposed to, its was easily skippable and wasn't a nuisance for me. <<less

The novel started out with strong potential but unfortunately went down as the story advanced. The translator also could benefit from editing.

The beginning was the pretty good -- the humor and tension between the characters made for some great lines, especially the System. The side-characters also had potential and personality, especially that smart and cool-headed girl. Unfortunately the ML and MC's relationship is too standard. Not only does the MC almost completely revolve around the ML (yes there is a mystery/plot but it doesn't really keep the reader's attention), he... more>> also doesn't encounter much friends/family, so everything starts dragging on.

The ML is pretty standard as well: OP, bad rep (but treats the MC well), arrogant and cold at first, super possessive later. The ML's bad rep reminded me a bit of QWFOD (way better story), so it had a lot potential, but... unfortunately, the author didn't utilize it well.

Overall, it was just difficult to care much about any of the events, esp since most of the time, the MC didn't care about the plot either and was just completing tasks set by the system for the sake in order to get away from the world. <<less

i tend to avoid chinese web novel, esp wuxia/xianxia (like I can differentiate them duh). but this novel is pretty good and fun to read. yeah, fun to read although the ML is a demon. the interaction between MC and ML is actually kinda funny if you read the following chapters. I'm even doubting the ML is a real demon. you won't see many demons that are willing to accept request when there's no contract or compensation.

... more>>
Spoiler

till chapter 22, he actually demanded a kiss. well, I kinda expect worse. he's a demon u'see. the ML is classic example of exaggerated rumors. yeah, he's smiling but not his eyes, he kills and slaughters and all. but that happened off-screen. and I recall he did say he killed some people but not that many to make blood river. he's also quite courteous to strangers. most of time, he's just chilling around. also I must emphasize something. there's no r*pe here. I can think r*pe scene or something similar in other chinese yaoi novel. but not in this novel. and with his traits, I doubt there will be. the most sexy scene is just kiss and grope, not penetration. I admit I want more but eh, none that kind here. the only thing I can think that restricts MC is the system. even so, MC is bantering with the system in every occasion. he even starts to change the body's personality aka OOC. that's......... pretty creative. oh, have I said their bantering is funny? most of jokes are from theirs. german orthopedic....? oh boy

[collapse]

just like the title. it's all teases.
in short, light reading when I want something to lighten my mood. <<less

A little generic with a subpar plot. MC transmigrates and has to pretend to be a woman while completing tasks, but he's revealed to be a man almost immediately. ML proceeds to play along with him while they work to uncover the mystery and fight the antagonist.

Good guys win, bad guys lose, everyone lives happily ever after, the end. There's really not much else to it.

I really loved this one. I was curious going in since the reviews varied a bit but I was very happy. I enjoyed the characters and their interactions. I felt like the pacing was good. The focus on cultivation etc was fairly small and the story was more focused on the characters and the mystery they are solving.

I would have loved more to the story because it was so well done, but I don't mind that it wasn't there. What needed to be said was said. The story was well... more>> wrapped up, and I feel that the characters developed well throughout.

Also, for those of you who love some good consent, there's lots of that here! <<less

I'm giving this 4 stars as of the end. This is a good light read. The focus of the novel is definitely on MC, ML, and their relationship. The other characters who appear also have well-defined personalities. Even the System has an interesting personality - actually the interaction between the MC and the System are my favorite parts of this novel. How the MC reacts to the tasks he is given is always fun to watch. Their relationship develops a bit slow which makes sense considering rumors that surround the ML and the restrictions placed on the MC. You get a better sense of them once they start working on the mu*der mystery.

For those who want to know how explicit the System gets with the MC's tasks

Spoiler

While the System does heavily restrict the MC's actions early on. The MC eventually figures out how to remove the OCC problem.

Spoiler

He realizes that since he is the owner of the body now if he gradually changes JY (original owner) 's disposition his actions won't be considered OCC anymore so his soul will be safe.

[collapse]

There was one chapter that particularly disappointed me because it involved

Spoiler

r*pe. The ML r*ped the MC because he was being affected by negative demonic energy.

[collapse]

Other the rest of the novel was enjoyable.

The extra are sweet and paint a fluffy, married life.

The relationship between Ye Junchi and JiYuan is so cute. The author knew when to make them become closer so it didn't feel rushed. He also didn't make JiYuan debate if he wanted to leave to long but still long enough so we could have the pleasure of seeing him "torture" our dear ML (‵▽′) ψ. There was also a great development in both the relationship between the MC and ML but also the MC and 2333 (best character ever always adds a smile to my face) and they're... more>> relationship doesn't feel old or repetitive. They also introduce good boundary (even though the ML is touchy) and never felt that the MC was pushed passed what he wants) and a healthy relationship in which they relied on each other, seek and respect the opinion of each other. Honestly it is a cute, BL novel with an actually interesting story line and mystery very nice to take a break from other "serious" novels. Would recommend reading it ☆*:.。. O (≧▽≦) o.。.:*☆ <<less

The title and picture fooled me- well mostly lol but it wasn't a bad thing ╰ (⸝⸝⸝´꒳`⸝⸝⸝) ╯. I enjoyed the shenanigans, felt heartache for the babies and anger at those malicious fools.

What I really wanted though was the MC telling him about his "previous" life.. I felt that would've been perfect for the extras but sadly, there was nothing there (╥﹏╥).

DAMMIT (ノ`Д´) ノ彡┻━┻ When will I get to have those types of moments between the Main CPs???????!!!!

I really like how the characters' relationships develop in this one. I was worried because the MC is forced into a "role" that is VERY different from his real personality, but the author manages to make it work quite satisfyingly. I think my only gripe about this is that there's certainly areas where the author could've expanded the story a bit more, especially at the end, but we'll see how the extras wrap things up.

If it did end at c59, it's not a bad ending, but it does leave you... more>> wanting more ^^ <<less

The MC is a boy living and dressed like a girl.... His family gave him to a infamous young master to be his pet but he was kidnapped by one of the infamous demon lords on the way.

Add poisons, mu*der mysteries left and right and missions given by the system for the MC to complete and you get an awesome read <3
