Jing Beiyuan finally redeemed himself in this lifetime when he met Wu Xi but Helian Yi thoughhhh. The heartache, unspeakable truth and feeling even tender gaze couldn’t hide the fond to that beautiful man : (
- MC was "fated" to be with a person, but was deeply betrayed & killed by them before his rebirth etc. The cliche-breaker is a spoiler:

- MC isn't some virginal youth who's never had any relationships (he's kind of like 300 years old), and he ends up with someone unexpected.

- MC is a switch.

Otherwise, an excellent read by Priest yet again.After rebirth, he doesn't end up with the same guy who killed him.
Above sounds so s*upidly obvious when written out, but unfortunately in rebirth/second chance novels, MCs almost ALWAYS end up with the same person who DEEPLY destroyed them in the previous life due to the Law of Virginity. (see next bullet)
Priest writes fantastic complex scheming political characters (like the ex-ML), making you alternatingly feel bad or call them "scum." Much dilemma! Great depth on the unspoken bitterness and regrets.
I'm frankly impressed how sympathetic a character he turned out to be.
In almost every CN novel, MCs end up with whoever took his/her "first time" (aka, Law of Virginity). Which is why it's shockingly great that MC ends up with someone-not-that in this novel.
And he's the kind of wonderful "top" who doesn't care who tops or bottoms, but rather sentimentally would willing submit and share both with his loved one.
- Wonderful multi-dimensional cast
- Ethical dilemmas galore
- Everyone is kind of a bit corrupt and a bit "gray" and a bit dirty... except cinnamon-roll ML
- More focus on plot, fighting for the throne, scheming etc.
- A bit similar to [Sha Po Lang] in terms of older!MC, fake-facade!MC, self-sacrificial!MC, loyal-to-country!MC (but not as noble or silly as the one in SPL)
- Overall, a darker tone because of the rebirth element and the pining/past tragedy element
Fantastic translation.The MC, Jing Beiyuan, had the worst luck in that the one he was destined to be with for 7 lifetimes instead became his enemy, not his lover. Then he had 5 miserable lifetimes after that trying to get close to him, before essentially giving up and trying to drink from the river of forgetfulness but that didn't work out either. Now the story starts with the seventh and last life, and, he has complicated feelings? He claims all he wants now is a peaceful life, but, it seems he can't escape royal intrigues, and, he's trying to decide whether it's time to let go of his feelings REALLY BIG SPOILER The ML doesn't appear to be the man he was supposedly destined to be with, but someone else
EXCEPT, the Crown Prince actually isn't the ML of this novel!
The MC is born again into his first lifetime with all of his memories intact. Even if his body is young, the MC's memories are hundreds of years old and the MC's heart has grown cold. He'll help the Crown Prince to the throne again, but the MC doesn't love the Crown Prince anymore and the MC wants to avoid being killed by a paranoid ruler again.
Rather, the ML of the novel is Wu Xi, the hostage Shaman from a foreign country. The first 90% of the story covers the 10 years when the MC and ML grow up in the Capital, mainly housebound. The MC is careful to appear to be a useless fop while actually scheming nonstop to promote the Crown Prince and protect himself. Wu Xi is seen as a little kid, with high IQ and martial arts, but low EQ. By the time the ML is a tall, strapping man, 90% of the story is passed, and the romance and the final battle begin. It's a happy ending.
If there's one word I could use to describe this novel, Melancholic would be it.
I don't even know what or how exactly Melancholy feels like, much like the novel. It gave me that feeling that I have no idea how to put into words... more>>
> 5 stars for great character development on all the characters, especially the MC
> 4 stars for the romance. I found this story focused on the MC's second chance at life and put the romance with the ML in the background. Not that there's anything wrong with that as the MC is so badass, but it did sometimes... more>>
Old Fox and the Little Toxin*cough* Lord Seventh and the Shaman Thus far, I think that out of Sha Po Lang, Guardian and Lord Seventh this is my favourite. The court intrigues were not boring and I really, really just simply adore the characters. There's just something captivating in the MC - Jing Beiyuan - who's already several hundreds years old via multiple reincarnations, went past a tragic love and out the other way. If I had to compare him to anyone, he's got the guts and morality of Wei WuXian... more>>
