Description
Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.Shen Zhixian transmigrated into a book as a cannon fodder master who hatefully severed his disciple’s spirit root. This disciple fell into the devil’s path and returned to make mincemeat out of him.
Shen Zhixian just happened to transmigrate into the last moment of the master’s captivity, and then he was reborn again.
After rebirth, he devoted himself to fostering and supporting his disciple, only to discover later that his disciple was also reborn.
Even worse, the disciple still retained the memory of his life before rebirth.
Shen Zhixian: …Disturbed.
Afterward, he realized one truth: Being a master is a high-risk occupation. Not trivial at all!

5/5 world building
5/5 descriptions/descriptive passages
3/5 plot. plenty of fun plot twists & interesting side missions but it often felt like the author just randomly gave up on these really great settings and these really interesting secondary characters that they previously spent 5 or more chapters developing. also... unmarked time skips. ugh.
3/5 romance (like SVSSS with a more honest, healthier relationship between the MC and ML... but not all that realistic romantic progression)
5/5 translation quality
Overall: 4.5/5 fun to binge read but not particularly memorable. big kudos to Xixi Translations.
- so much mystery (with eventual satisfying answers, don't worry) ; you know something happened to Shen Zhixian (MC) that turned his cultivation to waste and you know Yan Jin (ML) must have discovered something right after killing SZX in the previous life.... but as to how these clues come together, it is a rollercoaster of emotions and adventures that take the pair across the country and through secret realms and illusions
- the side characters were intriguing, funny, and didn't overstay their welcome or overshadow the main pair
- side characters include: the acting sect master with a hidden agenda; a cross-dressing "love rival" disciple; a mysterious youth who controls flowers and is really h*rny for his rival; a monk who both resembles and adores steamed buns; a literal grass sprout that I imagine is like a LoZ korok with an attitude
- and more!
- perhaps my only complaint is that there was obviously some unwritten background history among the side characters but the author cut it out to focus on the main pair; would have liked to see their origins in an extra
- and then my only REAL complaint is that the story should have ended after they defeated
Spoiler
[collapse]
and saved the day; instead there's another whole arc afterwards that doesn't reveal anything about the characters since by this time, all their mysteries have been solved
- feels like an arc that was in the middle of the story but didn't exactly fit, so it went at the very end
- idk but that's my only issue
- SZX was realistic and competent but not boring, and his feelings towards YJ grew steadily in a slow-to-moderate burn
- YJ also wasn't the typical "sticky demonic disciple"; his backstory and previous life's actions had tangible effects on the present and his love for SZX took a long while
- not quite an enemies to lovers thing, but close~
- also nothing explicit but some gooooooood steamy scenes xx
So yeah, if you like adventures where they go to one place to unlock X, travel through Y to find Z, and end up in Alice In Wonderland-esque illusions at the same time, this is the story for you. Also, we stan a bis*xual king. You do you, SZX <3 enjoy ur honeymoon babeSong Ming
And the twist near the end definitely sets it apart from other similar novels, I think. ^^
What's up with the weird city. Will the MC be truly healed.
