Before the return of spiritual energy and the awakening of all races, Ye Xuan died on the battlefield and unexpectedly returned to twenty years ago.

At this moment, before the returned of spiritual energy, the future lofty Red Lotus Empress was still just a simple and helpless little girl.

Ye Xuan seized the opportunity, deceiving the yet-to-awaken school beauty and deskmate Empress to become his wife, holding her in the palm of his hand, spoiling her to the skies!

A month later, when the spiritual energy returned, the school beauty awakened an SSS-class talent, skyrocketing to fame!

Passerby: You have SSS-grade talent, Ye Xuan is not worthy of you!

Red Lotus Empress: Get lost! Ye Xuan is my man, whoever touches him dies!

    The story is quite entertaining and surprisingly, no harem, at least for now.

    But I'm going to drop it because of the usual chinese racism.

    MC lied to his school by saying that his talent improved because he saw many people die and he was heart broken.

    ... more>> The school decided to send him in a mission to kill a monster in a busy street. Their goal, let the monster kill thousands and ignite MC's heart again.

    But of course they won't do that in a main street, the will do it in a street full of 'cultist'. That's great right? Cultist are bad.

    Yeah, about that, they will only kill foreign cultist. A cultist from china? Ah they are people of china too so... let's forgive them and protect them.

    The japanese? Mmm let the monster kill them and if they survive we get rid of them, after all, someone has to die to let the MC improve his talent again.

    Are we clear what happened here? MC lied about why his talent improves, school goes full annihilation mode and every foreign person in a street died for nothing, just because MC told a lie.

    No thanks, I'm just not going to enjoy a story in which 1 million people are killed because of the place they are born. <<less

    Dropped because of too much nationalism and racism. The author makes every black character introduced is an evil and ugly person, Japanese people are less than human, and China is the best blah blah blah.

    Outside of that, there are too many things that are unexplained. Why is every power that a human receives already have a name. For example, the main female character's power is called Red Flame Lotus or something like that. Who named this power? How do people know to classify it as SSS rank? In the recent... more>> arc, there's a legendary magical herb guarded by a 1000 year old snake that's as strong as a SS rank person, how do people know about this herb? Just a pretty s*upid novel overall. Also, too many items, abilities, and equipment are referenced from other games/shows. The main character gets an armor from the author's favourite MOBA, a power up technique from Naruto, and even has a quest reward to get Thor's hammer. Too dumb, ruins the immersion of the novel. Oh and this idiotic little main character is supposed to be like 40 years old, but he acts like a 12 year old. <<less

    Good concept that could have been interesting, but everything is 'tell, not show' laziness.

    It suffers from the problem of every other system/LitRPG story where instead of character growth, the MC does something irrelevant and gets +1 to his stats. Instead of using his memory and wits to figure out the best path forward, his systems tells him about everything that is going to happen to the future.

    The MC is also kind of a scumbag who feels no guilt over taking advantage of a child. That's par for the course for... more>> reincarnation novels though. <<less

    I really liked it for the first 200+ chapters and wanted to give it 4 or 5 stars, but the few latest arcs annoyed me, so I decided to drop the rating to 3 stars. I will explain why.

    One of the biggest highlights for in this novel are characters and their interactions. There is no pretense or at least not much. Characters are grounded and talk and behave like actual people, not like some cartoon. There are clear motivations and character evolution over time. I also like that there is... more>> finally a proper relationship displayed in a novel between the male and female leads. They are truly a power couple and they are most of the time together, doing things together, fighting together, living together. Their relationship have properly evolved over time until they got married and behave like a couple with general intimacy (like cuddling, hugging, spending time together) and overall they are very close to each other. They don't get s*upidly separated for some idiotic reason, no one ditches the other one to cultivate for 25 years in some cave, no s*upid drama. They don't leave one another when people tell them they are not a good fit, etc. They just properly get together and develop together and they trust each other unconditionally, talk to each other about issues and make decisions together. I don't see this kind of thing very often and I really like that it's here.

    I also like how the story progresses. It is indeed filled with contrivances, but it's just fun to read and it's not annoying. The humor is mostly acceptable as well, except for the few moments. I like how the characters are mostly ruthless and don't leave enemies alive, even if the enemy is super minor, they just get killed when the opportunity presents itself. It was all fine until the zombie arc, which I found to be super shallow and super s*upid and the kidnapping and nuking arc, which I also found to be completely ret*rded and out of character. I was expecting MC to just say "go ahead and kill her, it has nothing to do with me", but that idiocy happened and MC even did things very uncharacteristic for him. I also don't think that the usage of that kidnapped character was good. IMO she either should've been forgotten or have some kind of other role and didn't deserve what actually happened. Also the way she agreed and actually followed through is also s*upid. These things ruined the novel for me. The biggest plot point that ruined it for me was
    Spoiler

    when it turned out it was the aliens all along!

    [collapse]

    I don't really mind that in general, but this was a bit too contrived and unexpected for me. Just out of the blue for no reason.

    The other things that I don't like is way too much Chinese propaganda and nationalism in the novel. I usually don't mind it that much when it's somewhat mild and is just part of the story because it happens in China, but here it's just too much even for me. Also, in addition to that, other countries are depicted kinda cartoonishly, like a caricature of the real thing.

    Spoiler

    Even the f*cking aliens are like - China is clearly superior country with deep roots and even though we could manipulate other countries previously we don't dare to try and manipulate China because China is just so damn great. Bleh

    [collapse]

    One other point that really sticks out to me, but I am not dinging points off is that the author have granted several really god like abilities to several characters, including the MC, but he doesn't seem to realize it and doesn't make full use of the abilities he made. The progress of the abilities is also a little slow - there are only about a third of the chapters left, but the MCs only have something around 30% of the abilities developed. Also there is a clear foreshadowing that MC will just get super power up for all his abilities later all at once and just maximize them instantly. This progress could be fine if there were more chapters, but this isn't going to be good story progress.

    Overall I am having fun reading it and I would recommend giving it a try. <<less

    It's a very standard power fantasy set in fictional china in a world where magical energy started appearing. The story itself is nothing to write home about and can be easily followed despite the somewhat poor execution for a standard premise. The prose is... ok.... there's a lot of info dumping that does not help the flow of the story and can be tolerable in small doses but annoying when binge reading.

    The main issue is the lack of consideration in the story with itself and its characters. Despite involving time... more>> travel between a middle aged adult to its teen years as a second chance, the MC behaves like a reckless teen/young adult that does things with little thought or consideration and seems to have no emotional depth. Mentioning the age of MC pre-time travel yet not delving into the emotional struggles and regrets of a 2nd chance, clearly indicate the lack of events in life or an unwillingness to explore MC's second chance.

    We do not see any sort of emotional growth in the MC or behavior outside a set personality. Emotional struggles are only reserved for the MC's family due to pre-time travel downfall and even then are quite minor. A traumatic event from pre-time travel was easily solved in 2-3 chapters aiming to showcase the gap between life experience of MC and teen schoolmates yet all it does is indicate MC has no regard for others or himself as he's able to get into a romantic relationship with FMC despite being double the age mentally and showing no internal struggle about it.

    Although it is reasonable that if the MC goes to the past, using future opportunities to succeed is a given, the MC has a strikingly low emotional range or personality expression given most of the time it is flirt with FMC, get stronger, kill enemies, scheme, and repeat. MC's consistent one dimensional personality is incompatible with the setting offering the chance to explore a variety of issues in the characters which seems to again and again get squandered by the constricted personality. While it can be chalked up to years in the battlefield with the monsters, real soldiers are scarred for life yet having MC seemingly be "sane" and showing no expression of inner turmoil just makes the dissonance of reading the story stronger.

    The system does not help the case of the story either as it streamlines any sort of development by making MC op and any sort of attempt at conflict even more ridiculous with no stakes. <<less
