i realized this novel was special for me. The girls in the harem, the plot and the world were calling me to read on further and Lin ruoxi was forcing me to drop this novel. the girls were lovely and the world was not bad. But lin ruoxi was a ungrateful annoying bit*h who deserved to die.

Firstly she is angry with the MC all the time and that is annoying as hell. she speaks sharply often and ignores him at other times. This is still fine because author has made... more>> her such a character.

But the problem is that the author has tried to show in happy times like a "harmonious OLD couple". what does it mean? it is shown in TVs and novels where the old wife speaks with the husband in a angry or dissatisfied tone even when she is happy and the husband gives a helpless smile even she is being unreasonable some scene like that. When you see this you feel that they such a harmonious couple and they are such a warm family. But that is based on the fact that the couple is old. In our case she is always angry with the MC and in the happy moments, she hides her emotions and speaks sarcastically. YC made a christmas tree heart for her and the second sentence that came out her mouth was questioning him for his other lovers. So what we see in the novel is that she never talks with the MC with a straight face and either taunts him or speaks sarcastically.

There are many times, she is angry with YC for having lovers but their are many things she should feel because of her insecure personality which should make her feel otherwise. for example: According to my understanding of her personality when she finds out her husband has a lover, she is angry and decides to put up a cold front on but shouldn't she feel scared first? what if she is replaced as the main wife, after all she is just different from the other lovers because she threatened him with su*cide and she resembles someone she is not.

Spoiler

when she questions him about seventeen even I felt sorry for YC. Did she not fear that he will think that she is right and leave her? He treated with love and care which she lacked and she wanted more. she is so selfish and unempathetic that I wanted to burn her alive. even after MC came back she doesn't even apologize because of her "pride".

[collapse]

Why do the other girls respect her and treat themselves as mistresses? If I was one of them I would come with my luggage and ask YC to take myself in. if she is aggressive, I would just slap her or something. If YC would ask me what I was doing I would say, "i know you can't give me the status of wife but we love each other and I want to live with you... Oh, so she has a problem with me staying here, hubby you should come live with me or so you want to say you love her more than me" YC leaves with her and LR commits su*cide, that would be a amazing novel for me. We always think from MC's perspective so we feel that whatever tantrum main heroine is throwing is acceptable but for a girl among 10 others to be given special privilege should make feel grateful otherwise it is her problem.

This was some of my pent up rage for LR....

Secondly, I think that this novel was author's first novel or something because in many areas I feel that he took inspiration from some scenes so it feels out of place and some places are often overly dramatic which shows inexperience.

I won't say much about the MC because he is a sissy who has no dignity. always asking for forgiveness, kneeling, begging and being scared in front of his wife is not something I can aceept as a man so I treat him like a clown.

these were the cons unique to this novel.

Except that the world is shown to be a very small place and you find acquaintances coincidentally all the time.

secondly, racism is very irritating if I didn't hate the Main heroine enough already I would give it 1 because of racism only. I am a hindu and when people named with indian gods were used as small time villains, I was very angry. at first I thought of suggesting that maybe they could use names of demons and devils from the mythology but then I realized that the purpose of other countries was a ret*rd's way of showing their's dogsh*t culture's superiority and brainwashing program by the politicians for the pitiful chinese so my suggestions wouldn't be of any use.

I think all the characters except MC and Main heroine are nice, rather they are quiet well written. I especially like characters like the parents, harem girls, even villains.

i mostly criticized this novel this novel even though I spent time reading 1600 chapters of it. why? I would like to explain it with a example, my favorite avenger is Thor but with how he is shown in the endgame, I even feel embarrassed to tell anyone this so I say it is scarlet witch (my 2nd favorite), Marvel treats iron man in such a way that I feel I am doing something wrong by not saying that iron man is my favorite.

similarly LR is iron man and the rest of the girls are the other avengers. they are nice by themselves but because of LR and MC it is difficult to praise them. if the other girls are a bunch of flowers then MC and LR are a pile of dung they grow in <<less

I don't know why I bothered reading so far. I don't like how many women there are, I don't like how the main character treats them, and that's most of the story.

I guess I mostly just wanted to see how he cultivated, find out all of his abilities, and have all his past revealed. Not worth reading. I'd give it a 1 but for satisfying an overpowered and grandiose character itch it was sufficient for a good chunk. It stopped being so at some point though.

My wife is a Beautiful CEO OR THE ENDLESS PURSUIT, COURTING AND KIDNAPPING OF MC's women :D

Yes, there will be always multiple attempts from different men to snatch MC's girlfriends/wife away. THEY WILL NEVER BE SAFE, even if 1 girlfriend was already rescued once. There is a time in this novel, this same girlfriend will be courted by different men a second and maybe a third and fourth time. They will try to force MC's women away by talking (persuading, flirting, threatening, etc.), by money, by background, by force, by... more>> arranged marriages, etc. There will be countless means deployed, to ensure they will get their dirty hands on MC's women. Later in this novel, they don't even care about MC's marriage. They will still try to snacht away the CEO wife.

You don't like this feeling? Maybe this novel might be still enjoyable for you, but it will leave a bad aftertaste.

Especially the CEO wife's personality doesn't make it easier to like this novel.

Spoiler

Even until chapter 551 Lin Ruoxi treats the MC coldly. There is no "wish fullfilment" part at all yet in this relationship. It doesn't matter how many times he rescued her and he even gave her 50 billion yuan to rescue her company. She doesn't even care that much. Yes, there is sometimes a slight improvement in the relationship, but then something happens a few chapters later and she treats him again in the same cold manner or even worse. Without our MC, she would be dead multiple times. MC just needs to make a little mistake (which isn't even necessarily a mistake, because sometimes it was because of HER APPROVAL/ARRANGEMENT) and everything he has done for her is forgotten. It is also very annoying to see him pursuing and pleasing her all the time, without an improvement in the relationship, because she simply doesn't care.

This is like "wish fullfilment" for the female readers, because they might enjoy the feeling of beeing endlessly pleased and pursuited by the MC, regardless how bad she treats him.

This story is simply a male power trip fantasy full stop, where the MC is a super genius, super strong, super skillful & generally unbeatable in all aspects of life & has women falling head over heels in love with him, even if some of them act cold at first, it's only a matter of time till he beds them. This MC can do no wrong, from being in multiple relationships, s*xual harassment, killing without receiving any consequences whatsoever etc...

So if you're into all of the above this'll be a... more>> 5star read no doubt, even if the writing is piss poor.

Dropped. <<less

Why do I like it ?Even though some parts really suck, I completely enjoy the way the relationships are portrayed. That is especially so for the Main Leads, The Family is really touching.I finally got to read a novel where a husband and wife live under the same roof, do things together occasionally, they LIVE together literally.

Unlike the 999 chapter gap where they are separated like in most novels, even though, objectively speaking this genre leads to this scenario of living together, I honestly find it enjoyable and touching... more>> to see how they go ahead together.

It is that simple daily life interactions that makes it so special that gives you a touch of seeing something you can totally believe to call as Life like, which many might find hard but this novel makes it a Daily Life Novel. It is this small interactions that build up the characters and their relationships, making it stand out from most of the novels where you can't recognize the characters by their personalities but by names, because of the lack of distinctness and the same One dimensional characteristics which don't make them any special.

So they don't stand out or simply, they feel dead. In this novel there are wide variety of cast with contrast personalities that make it a vibrant and wonderful.I like it. This is my reason and of course the Harem and Overpowered, Lazy, Confident Protagonist with a Mysterious Past are there as core reasons as well. But the one I said above is something unique and rare so I had to say it even if I have to write more. And all this with the right pacing and great presentation makes it a memorable read for me.

A Beautiful Love Story In Cultivator World{Am I saying things?}

You can try it out but do remember that the story only gets better so the starting might not be good but the quality after 200 chapters is not to be denied.

Actually this is like a template cultivation/drama/s*xual predator of chinese novel. Many may know or not know but there are quite a few stories very similar to this one. It's like let me copy the general idea and modify it to make it my story. That's how these writers are nowadays. (ex: The Soldier King, Beautiful CEO Bodyguard, etc...)

Then, of course, you have the usual rinse-repeat of stuff. He goes back and forth from places to places to solve problems.

I believe if they just focus on one plot, and... more>> make an enrichment of 'literature' writing then this would've been a good story to read. Some stuff needs to cut out. I mean mol*sting women and they fall in love after being mol*sted, is like mol*station is the norm in china or something. Who would let their kids read such stuff?

Out of 100 chinese stories you find here on NovelUpdate, probably 2-3 are less than 500 chapters, at best.

The rests are like ridiculously long repetitive crapload of shietz. I just saw one that was like over 5k+ chapters and still ongoing. I think it was some story about female soldier going back in time or something like that.

I'm still amazed and appalled at how readers are into such stuff. Although I love to read but there has to be some cutoff point somewhere to draw the line. I mean-like can you really eat pasta everyday for 100 yrs of yur life without eating anything but pasta? <<less

Very slow novel, but fairly entertaining if you are bored.

Story has absolutely NOTHING to do with it's title. The author actually acknowledged he made a mistake with the name, and refuses to change it just to troll people, hahaha. You'll also have to ignore the first 5 chapters or so... it's clear author had no idea where to he wanted the story to go initially.

I guess there's a slow budding romance with the main wife, but as other reviewers mentioned, the underlying story is about an OP MC who goes... more>> about collecting women as part of his harem in a modern social setting (which is fairly unique by itself since polygamy is obviously no-go these days). The premise is somewhat believable, because
Spoiler

the MC is at an entirely different level of existence compared to regular humans, way beyond billionaires/political powers.

[collapse]
Societal norms don't apply to the MC. The story does develop more after chapter 200, you start getting more backstory and into the shadowy world that reminds me of "John Wick".
The relationships do annoyingly go back-and-forth, even unravels at certain times. Totally random, I suspect some outside influence (China SARFT censorship bureau) cracked down on this author at some point since the level of smut was an obvious red flag.

It's written 2011, but the novel's society still reflects a somewhat lawless society (think 1980s-1990s mafia/corrupt China, almost like "Darker than Black"). The motivations of many side characters are very odd. Author invokes a lot of chinese familial ties heritage that makes ZERO sense as a plot device.
Spoiler

There's an ongoing theme of sicko birth parents who hideously mistreat their children. Yet for some reason their children find it in themselves to forgive these people, everyone holds hands and sings kumbaya. In this day and age, we already know that there are tons of undeserving parents out there. Think of the psycho California couple who locked up their 13 kids for years. Just because they carried their child to term doesn't mean jack shit.

[collapse]

Fight scenes are forgettable, the whole genius/gangster/martial god setting is forgettable. You're pretty much just trying to figure out who the MC is going to pick up next, hahaha. Author absolutely doesn't shy away from this. Just take it at face-value. <<less

The first thing I have to say is don't be fooled by the title. The novel is pretty great, I like how everything develops. Besides, it's a lot of fun, the protagonist makes smart decisions. The characters around him are quite interesting, each one has his own background and the women around him don't fall in love as easily and ridiculously as in other novels. He deserves the 5 stars.

Sorry for my English I'm not very versatile in writing.

Really good story. Read through all 1664 chapters and really enjoyed it. Plenty of plot twists (and one really surprising one) but it was all worth it in the end. Hope the author comes out with another one like this!

My favorite members of the harem would be Cai Ning and Jane. In terms of of knowing Yang Chen the longest they would be near the top, with a few exceptions. Oh Athena wasn't too bad either. Honestly the MC was frustrating at times but it is one of the finest harem endings I have ever read. Other harem novels fall way behind the mark.

This novel is enjoyable and so much fun to read. Be warned though, the title is a trap. This novel is definitely not targeted to women reader. I read this novel thought it just a romance novel, but....

In all its worth to read but with its so slow speed translation (3 chapters a week that got split in half for each day) and with unstable release, I doubt anyone could wait for 10 years to be translated to finish.

Too bad its not published by Qidian. I know that Qidian business... more>> ethics is questionable, but at least it quite responsible and fast to provide its reader. <<less

To be honest, one of the best harem novel I have ever read. I just couldn't control it, this is the first and most probably gonna be the last novel that forced me to read LNMTL because of slow translation (although, recently the translation speed has been gone back to 6 parts a week and I can't wait to re-read my favorite arcs in proper, clear and accurate translation). -Literally, it is indeed quite rare to see a harem well done in a Chinese novel it is usually your... more>> generic harem that is forgotten into the background for 300-400 chapters because the protagonist has to go the upper level to train, leaving everyone close to the main character behind, but none of that in this novel which is where this novel truly shines through from the rest of the stories in the same genre. I should mention this though that the pace of the plot in the novel is bit slow for the first three hundred chapters, but it becomes really interesting and darn good after 310 chapters. This novel will keep you immersed into the plot through MC's history, his harem, his wife, his locked powers, his origin and why he can't use it? The part where novel truly reaches new height for me is in the last three arcs, but unfortunately, I couldn't enjoy it properly because of rough translation. :If you are tired of boring generic mediocre harem stories like me, then your search ends right here, you have reached your stop. You honestly can't ask for anything more except praying to god that our translator would keep on releasing chapters at his current pace

P.S:- Don't trust any of the one rated review as they are only telling half of the story because you will find one thing similar about any negative review is that he cheats on his wife thus making her sad, but that is only half truth. The thing is the wife (CEO) threatens MC to marry her by committing su*cide she herself agreed on a three year contract where she won't interfere in MC's private life as she won't ever fall in love with him or give him any attention, lo and behold sh*t happens and she ends up falling in love with him (WHICH TAKES FOREVER) but now MC has 6 women with whom he has gone countless tribulations and death scenarios because his main wife doesn't give two shits about him, at one time she even slaps him hard just because he tried to kiss her. SO DO YOU REALL BLAME MC FOR FINDING ANOTHER WOMAN? The fact that he is actually one of many god of olympus' reincarnation HADES. Which is why believe me, read it and make your own judgement rather than reading those panzy ass hypocrite negative reviews. The women in this novel are written far better than your average harem novel except for CEO, they are independent and don't just basically throw themselves on MC and have their own unique personalities! <<less

Every chapter was interesting and exciting

Every character, especially women have intricate and their own personnalities which are well fleshed out and consistent throughout, there is no women that are just there to please the MC for the plot, the main woman actually nearly divorces multiple times and gets into lots of arguments and shocking plottwists

But I f*cking Loved that Drama!

Yang chen is also despite being overpowered, is always near the brink of death, he lost his cultivation twice and both times it was so intense and nearly died, once again... more>> normal mercenaries and the second time against peak cultivators, it was a real turning point and kept me on edge personally

Every story about his past as child was so f*cking well written

an amazing cultivation novel in a modern setting with a good harem and very very fun characters!

Like Holy sh*t I had sooo much fun with this! Like funny characters everywhere yet still epic fights and hot scenes ;)

Business drama, Women drama, love here and there yet fighting when necessary

The MC is a total Chad, he acts like it but doesn't look the part haha it was pretty much a very loving read <<less

3 things to say:

Novel starts of solid but devolves because of power creeps and cultivation

MC just doesn't understand his wife doesn't want him to have more women

Female lead acts like a stuck up bit*h and has just too much self importance. She doesn't want MC to have other women even though she was the one who allowed him to do it first since they had a contract marriage.

I normally only read cultivation heavy novels. So this is a very nice change of pace.

From chapter 1 to chapter 870, which I'm currently at... has been so much fun to read.

It's kind of a slice of life novel with action sprinkled in every now and then. I love the laid back environment and plots revolving around the MC and the interactions with his harem.

... more>> Author doesn't skimp on the scenes of intimacy. Nor does he skimp on the violence of the fight scenes.

The MC is fantastic. He's basically a god compared to most people around him. So is interactions are mainly just him helping his women, the family of his women, or his family, solve problems that he can effortlessly solve.

The women have their own unique personalities and are well written.

Of the hundreds of online novels I've read so far, this one is in my top 3. I love it and would highly recommend this to just about anyone. <<less

Low quality, illogical and worst part is it based on the modern time.

As I reads ch 301, I am very disappointed and loathed at MC's action. Just because his lust, he forced f*cks one of his girls at office without considering someone may come. This is absolutely r*pe.I don't detest villain MC but hypocrite MC f*cked.

Excellent. Can't find the time nor disposition to write what I want, so I will just point one little thing (unimportant for the majority, I guess, but for me it's good). The author doesn't let you suffer too much, the conflicts that make you a little more frustrated (for me, especially the ones with his women) don't linger for too much time, in 2-3 chapters he relieves you of that frustration. With the main wife it's a little more complicated, as it builds up more with every new conflict, but... more>> it's still smooth in the end of things. <<less
