I just finished it today. Let's see, it's your normal high-level cultivator in a high level plane suddenly dying and reborn in a body of a tr*sh bastard-- novel. With his knowledge and a lots of cultivation material, he surge towards the sky and conquered the world.

Speaking of "bastard", I read an author notes in the passing, the author actually regretted the title. I forgot the exact wording, but the author seemed to realized the title is too far away from the story.

Haha.

... more>>
Spoiler

Anyway, mc's body-- the original-- was actually the legitimate son, the eldest legitimate son of the family. They were switched at birth by the grandma, so that the grandson of her son's beloved concubine will be safe. And then she killed the original body with poison, which was rumored to be su*cide because of love.

MC remained in this family for a while to resolve the original's lingering attachment.

[collapse]

I can't say this novel is perfect, but it's a wholesome to read. MC has "personality" and the ML didn't just changed his personality abruptly like some. Kind of change person. The ML developed from weak to strong. And he has his own character arc.

Meanwhile, mc's personality is consistent throughout. A lot of people were surprised though, when MC came back to the higher plane, since he was know as a disaster star.

Spoiler

actually not. This is the interesting part. It's the mysterious history of the whole continent. MC was a demon god. He was the son of the dragon god and the demon (I forgot what it was called) but she's the strongest woman in the demon clan. So MC has both the blood of a god and demon in his body. And every time the seven calamity (what they called with I'm not wrong) descent he will reincarnated and become demon god again to defeat it and died again. Like hes sole. Purpose was that calamity. But a descendant demon claimed the throne and delete the history, and said that his was a disaster star, and got killed everytime, until mc's reincarnation. To kill MC, the demon's killed mc's family. But MC only knew that those demon wanted the Li family inheritance.

[collapse]

Spoiler

speaking of MC being demon god, ML is a fire. In this round of reincarnation, . MC is a fire beast, who can see disaster, and saw mc's disaster. He sacrifice his physical body to changed mc's destiny and reincarnated as a Ger child from lower realm and become the bastard's wife.

[collapse]

A lot of events happened. It's like, ML wanting to wage war with destiny just to be with MC.

I like how MC discard his "demon god" identity in the end to be with ml. He likes his current identity now.

And I'm touch with how ml's will to be with MC.

There's no complicated thing in their relationship, they sacrifice for each other and helped each other. They beautiful couple.

Man, love the turtle. Haha <<less

10/10, all the characters are brilliant, it flows so nicely, everything is great, I love MC and ML! They’re just adorable, I love every character except some annoying people in it.

I like when they get paired up and it’s great to see some nice friendships and shi like that

If you wanna read, you need to copy the associated name to it, the Chinese version, then tap one of the Chinese websites and use google translations to read it, it did get annoying seeing the ML get addressed as she and... more>> her but I ended up just swapping she and her to he and his in my head and tried to remember he’s a shuanger, a male who can give birth! I loved it. <<less

Honestly I already read the raw long time ago. I am so suprised to see this novel, I thought no one knows this since it seems to be less popular, Li Tianyan's name really engraved in my mind that the second I read the summary I remember how the plot started 😂

This is my favorite troupe though, the kind that strong MC reborn in a weak and useless body that have been looked down by many people and there we go the face slapping thing :D

Many secrets behind their life,... more>> and it is really intriguing to see who is MC and ML in the past and why they seems to be related to several incidents (when they already left Hengwu and that Island).

I recommend this tho, since I love OP gong MC 👍🏻 the ML shou also OP (even though he is less strong than MC) !! They are strong together😘

PSSHHHH about their children later!
Spoiler

they are gonna have twins in the end! One boy and one shuang'er 🥺

The start of the novel may be a bit confusing and not good but it improves later on. I like the plot twists and the reincarnation stuff. I like how loopholes are solved. Definitely a must-read.

➺ 3.5/5🌟

Compared to some cultivation novels I've read, this is definitely on the shorter side so there are definitely some parts where the pacing felt hastily done. There's also this plot device that was used as an excuse to make the MC and ML achieved the higher stage of cultivation without making them too unreasonably OP but also not relying on having time skips. But still, it felt quite rushed in my opinion. For this kind of novel, I would rather read more than 500 or even a thousand chapters... more>> for a better world building and more solid plot.

Though this is not as good as the other cultivation danmei I've read, I still enjoyed this. Both MC and ML are quite likeable and even though they have this plot armor for having a special body constitution that helped them gained the cultivation in a shorter amount of time that other people achieved only after decades or even centuries of cultivating, it's not to the point of them unbeatable even against cultivators 2 realms higher than them. They're both self aware and not overly arrogant about their abilties and I loved that. There's no boring moment as well, which I appreciate.

If you enjoyed reading The Legendary Master's Wife or I Have Medicine, I think you might enjoy this one. <<less

If you are going to write a novel, pay attention to your storyline. Don't start a plot point, just to completely change it a couple chapters later. And don't introduce plot points that have no background... your foundation for the story will start to crumble and take away from the immersion.

Spoiler

MC needs a body refining manual to help fix his poor constitution. He remembers that his mother had tried to get him to study one that would have been perfect for him, but the OG found it too difficult and gave it back to her. So MC goes to her room to get the manual... only to discover it is missing, along with his mother's bracelet that was a matching pair to the hairpin the OG gave away to the girl he was courting. He figures that the main wife must have taken them.

The next day, he goes to give greetings to the main wife. At this point I am assuming he is going to use some trick to get his mother's belongings back. Nope, nothing is mentioned. And he runs into the girl he was courting wearing the hairpin he gave her. Except now it is one that he spent 10, 000 to buy for her. So the whole mother's mementos part of the plot has been nixed. Also, later he is taking medicinal baths to help fix his body... which sounds awfully like he got it from the book he mentioned. Where did this come from out of nowhere??? There is no explanation

[collapse]

I am not rating it at this time since I am only 30 chapters in. I feel that this may be a newer writer. Perhaps with some more experience, they can come back and polish this possible gem. I must admit I love the plot twist right before chapter 30. Remember to do unto others as you'd have done unto you... cause karma is a salty B and you don't know when or how she'll visit lol.

Also a trigger warning. MC is who-knows-how old transmigrator from a higher level cultivation world who is now residing in a 15 year old's body. His spouse is only 13 (true age). If any of that bothers you, don't pick this one up <<less

I really liked it, and I'm going to highlight something that not many culture novels do: completely closing the plots and showing the lives of those they met along the way.

Perhaps the "final outcome" plot was a bit rushed, but I still enjoyed it and it saved me a lot of anxiety compared to some novels where the final battles drag on endlessly, generating a lot of anxiety.

I would definitely read it again.

I like it! Haven't finished yet but I'll write comments cuz it's a bit underrated imo

Cheng Qi is the cutest shou you'll ever find! He's so effortlessly adorable with his ditzy and curious nature, his cuteness is so natural and doesn't feel forced or overly done, I like bis partnership with the ghost s*ave Tan Eyu, they make the atmosphere less tense with their banter.

The MC Li Tianyan is the usual transmigrated person, but instead of the modern times he comes from the same setting of cultivation world, something like... more>> a different continent (or parallel world? M'not sure), he comes of as c*cky and bold when he first arrive, occupying the body of the original fifteen y.o Li Tianyan who's dying fr fever, as the time pass and he grew to be twenty his personality is not as daring as in his teenage years, his original identity is a high ranking cultivator so he's pretty much op, has many knowledge about spiritual artifacts, herbs, weapon, formations etc, his transmigrated body is very weak tho so he's practically start training from scratch.

Some elements of the plot is exaggerated and formulaic, but it's alright cuz this genre is sort of like fantasy in my mind you can make up however crazy things as long as it's entertaining lol, and it's pretty much fun in my opinion, ensemble cast are there but don't steal the spotlight from the MCs, the relationship blooming as they travel from one place to another, subduing problems and advancing cultivation step by step, I can paused reading at certain chapter and continuing after weeks and months and the interest doesn't dissipate at all.

In early chapters I was a bit bothered by the length of the sentences and paragraphs, it's so short and may feel too casual for others, but it's only at the first 2-3 chapters, after you familiarize it, it not as noticeable anymore, and your attention already focusing on the action packed plot.

Overall, I would recommend this if you like lighthearted xianxia genre mpreg danmei with quite weighty plot but not too heavy and literary like thousand autumns, tgcf, devil venerable also wants to know etc, with uncomplicated relationships and adventurous travels.

Also some little things I like,

Spoiler

is how they never forget the friends or acquaintance they have along the way, when leaving the mortal world for Tianfan sect, they said goodbye to their friends properly, arrange and oversee the marriage of Li wu and xiao liu, giving the shop deed back to Guang Haoran, and we see Shang Ruifeng and Lu jinghuai standing from afar watching as husbands with a bun in the oven >.< also when the ghost cook spirit dissolve because he's at peace, Tan Eyu loyalty and steady presence throughout the story, Niu Niu the cute slowish bull beast still act as MCs transportation wherever they want to travel, they never forget them all, I rlly like and appreciate this small details <3

[collapse]

p.s MC and ML married when they were little (15 and 13), but they did not consummate it until both of them were in a higher cultivation level (20 and 18) aside from kisses and skinship nothing's happened, just informing in case you're uncomfortable w/ underage stuff <<less

This actually exceeded my expectations, I never thought I'd like this but it was a great story. Long read ahead but pretty well worth it. I like how the plot progressed with MCs birth family and all the schemes around it. Well written. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

I'm glad I trusted the reviews of those who had completed the book. The story is touching. The side characters are polished. Although MC is OP in essence, he didn't have it easy, he actually uses brain to help himself and those around him. Face slappings are also satisfying here especially the extras hehe..

He was indeed reborn without memories of the last life and this is actually part of the point

This novel is so much better than the synopsis made it out to be. I highly recommend!!

I'm nearing the end now but wow it's been such a fun and exciting journey!! There's so much to the story, alot of little side-quests that doesn't feel like a repeat operation. There's no other peach blossom debt aside from 1 time in the immortal mansion. The friends they have are small but tight-knit and they adventure together.

The one thing I found a little troublesome was that the scene cuts are sometimes pretty abrupt.... more>> You can never tell when it's going to just happen. But after reading the entire novel I think it's actually pretty good, because there's no boring parts at all, it's all whatever the author finds interesting or wants to jump to. I let the chef serve. <<less

Very solid cultivation novel. The length is just right, perhaps could have a little more tension in the climax but I'm happy with the ending.

I like how the MC has friends, very reliable one at that. Usually in these types of novels they just threw an ally for an arc and threw them away at the next.

The mystery about their past that's slowly get revealed is one of the point that get me from getting bored of the story.

Very recommended for anyone who likes long cultivation novels

Only minus one star for the reasons I find ML too clingy and always seems to be a plus 1 to MC as baggage. Its cute and all, but besides MC he has no other goals I find that quite sad.

MC super Op, but he gets his ways by using his brains more. He knows everything, very calm and only uses force when necessary. Righteous and hates evil

There's not much to explore, it is quite short for a cultivation novel for 300 ish chapters. We are stuck in the smaller... more>> realm worlds most of the novel.

We spend alot of time on fillers like eating and flirt talks.. I guess its fine. Just I feel the plot isn't that important. There's never a sense of urgency it's always lassaire faire, they just do things on a whim, no sense of direction.

We do spend alot of time on side characters and we do remember them. Which is rare that I do appreciate.

The fights are pretty decent in descriptions

This is a good novel to read <<less
