Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

In a world of shallow-minded, materialistic mortals, what would one from humble beginnings – whose face had been stomped on, spat on, oppressed for the longest while by the arrogant, pampered upper echelons of society – do, when a mysterious application pops up on a brand new phone that was meant to be the birthday gift of an ungrateful girlfriend? What if the application takes the form of a chatroom where its occupants, bearing the names of mythical, fictional beings, start giving out ‘Red Packets’, all the while spouting nonsense?

At first, I thought that this was the same novel as Red Packet Server, but I was wrong.

It's worse. way worse. I don't know which novel came first but it feels like the Invisible Dragon version of Red Packet Server. And not in a good way. In the first chapter alone, he gets dumped by a bit*h for no reason, grows an extra arm and his reaction is I will use this extra arm to get more red packets....

Nope.

In the beginning, the series was a solid 3.5-4 for me. However as the amount of ridiculously OP items and godly luck kept piling up, the story started losing my interest. Female characters are introduced just for the sake of starting some arc that will inevitably end with said lady added to his harem. Speaking of which, even after having 6 ladies in love with him (some of which openly offer themselves to him), the deed has never been completed due to some equally heaven defying interruption.... every single time.

The... more>> enemies, combat, techniques, cultivation, etc. seem to be there just for the sake of proving how OP the MC is at using objects gifted by the gods... literally.

Even after all that, I could still manage to continue reading. However, at some point the author turns the story into a China vs. Japan, nationalistic garbage. Racism becomes blatant and the MC then becomes the paragon of "China is better".

As others have mentioned, Cultivation Chat Group is incomparably better. <<less

Even if you make a new page to reset the poor reviews...a bad story is still a bad story... all you did was remove all of the positive views that initially were garnered by the story when it first came out...

A ridiculous harem story where women all just randomly fall in love with the MC, leaving you thinking, quite literally "wtf"...

It started with something that sounds like it would have been a great story, but the author just wreaked it. If you literally have nothing to read at all, then... more>> I might suggest looking at this one.

Cultivation Chat Group is like a 1000X better than this story. <<less

I normally don't bother writing a review for novels but I really had to write one for this novel.

Apparently, people in this novel have an on/off switch with their emotions and manners. Either you revere someone and be extra polite or you tell them to f&*k off. No middle ground. OK, not everyone is like that but far too many to be realistic.

MC is literally a human tr*sh. Very narrow minded and unrealistic. So he hates those overbearing young masters when he was poor and being bullied. So what does... more>> he do when he gets rich. Of course, he's gotta join the gang and be one of those tr*shy people.

Romance is also rather s*upid. Actually, it's not really there. Kinda an after thought.

Author really loves his MC. Everything about him is godly and everyone loves him. C'mon now, he was just a poor sob a while ago. Don't turn him into an as*hole over the course of one week.

Anyhow, it won't get better, so read on at your own risk. <<less

This novel is just Red Packet Server, but worse. People argue that this came first so it isn't a copy, then you can consider Red Packet Server an improvement of this. They're both nearly as bad as each other though so I would recommend fending them both off with a six foot pole.

I question whether this is a Chinese novel or Japanese novel. Most of the girls have little to no purpose in the novel, just there to join the harem because in this novel more girls = more "awesome"... more>> MC, as if the number of girls that you have are a valuable commodity that shows how much of a man you are. He does bullsh*t violent actions at times and even little orphans girls are praising how awesome the MC is for it. Not to mention the author treats s*x with a blindfold, covering his ears shouting "Lalala". The MC seems to be Japanese as the f*cking sky itself will come crashing down just to c*ckblock the MC.

I have no problems with the MC getting overly op items from deities and it is better than Red Packet Server as he doesn't get whatever he needs one chapter later every time. However it is far worse in comparison to what he gives them. He sells them spicy sticks, not in the packets they come in, but individually, for sky high prices. He literally buys a packet of spicy sticks and sells each stick individually as if each was a national treasure.

This is even worse when these deities, who have been cultivating for anywhere between millennia till the beginning of the world, have the personalities of children. I can understand them showing appreciation toward something new and enticing, but they treat these common confectionary as divine treasures. What happened to the heavenly food full of spiritual Qi and such? The whole setting is so unrealistic it's off putting.

A final point is that if you have read Red Packet Server, you have read this. I say that because the plot lines are almost identical with different names and deities. MC moves his parents to live in his new mansion and has his spirit pet he got from a Red Packet look after them (happened in both novels) face slapping at the jade rock auctions (both) along with many other events. There are changes in some of the details, but the plot lines are almost identical.

It has also now started moving towards the standard chinaXjapan racism. I can read GDW, the king of racism, and enjoy it, but this is just forced plot lines done in the completely wrong way. <<less

In this novel, things happen without proper explanation. The MC is instantly adapting (in a very strange way. Emphasis on 'instantly') to all the weird sh*t that happens around him. He 'instantly' knew that the users in the group are actually _THE_ famous deities in legends... Huh? Wot?. That's only the tip of the iceberg.

The way this novel was written could only be described as bad. I tried to read this because the title looked strangely similar to Red Packet Server, so I was expecting it to be... more>> a copy -or the original for all I know- but I was not expecting this level of work. I actually feel sorry for the time I wasted reading this crap.

I'm writing this because I fell into the trap. If you have nothing to do and want to read something, I say any other novel will do but stay away from this one. Even if you want to waste your time, this novel is not a good way to do it. <<less

Calling this novel a generic novel would be offensive to those generic novels (yes, including face-slapping, young master, daddy grandpa revenge...)

At least those garbages' authors care about their stories.

Don't misunderstand me, I hate those novels but this one just set up (or down) a new standard.

Sayonara b*tches.

I pity the fools who believe those 5-star trolls in the reviews.

I'm not very smart to begin with but think I just lost a few points of my IQ from reading this novel. If the translation quality was better, it'll get another star but for some reason, calling people by their family name Chen, or Lin instead of the whole name doesn't sit well with me. Their full names are in the raws yet translation just goes by their family name, which confuses me when it talks about multiple people of the same family.

The novel does feel like a teenager going... more>> through puberty writing this in order to fulfill his fantasy of becoming rich and powerful. It becomes a jumble mess of random encounters with random powerups. I understand many of the amateur authors actually live in rural villages and work as farmers as a living, but that influence from this author is too strong here.

So be warned, translation and editing are bad so you will be reading Engrish and incorrect translations. <<less

Super bad. I do not understand. Because it always has to be the same story of hitting the rich masters...

And the thing is that they put many girls who are in love with the MC but he does not really specify a relationship with any! Many girls are waiting to give him their v**ginity but he does not take a step with any... It's a f*cking fagot!

this s a novel that is like a drug

some people like it, some people hate it.

its a novel you shouldn't take seriously and an alternative to red packet server. But unlike red packet server, this novel doesn't fall apart and become tr*sh. There are few plotholes and the interactions of the MC and gods are just as good as RPS, perhaps better.

TBH I dont understand why people are comparing this to RPS when RPS is much worse than this novel with regards to the romance and harem. The only difference... more>> is that this novel doesn't become bad after hundred of chapters.

if you are deciding to read this or RPS, choose this and not RPS because RPS is just a huge disappointment. <<less

Honestly the series itself is not bad. I mean its no master piece but at the same point in time it's not complete ret*rdation, just read it for some mindless fun. The MC is your typical CN web novel MC. Gets looked down and screwed over in the start, then right after he receives a life hack. OFC he figures out what it is in less than 5 min without questioning it, gets op because of it, and runs into a world shattering beauty, whom happens to be from a... more>> super op and wealthy family all in the time span of about a few hours.

Following said events a bunch of mindless fun starts where he gets rich and op and has a bunch of hot chicks, whom happen to be the greatest beauties that every man drools over.

Like I said all in all the story is not that bad. What is bad however is the translations.

Reading the first few chap's and then mtling the rest of the chap's you will notice that the translator decided to make every arrogant young master swear like they know no other words. It just idk brings the novel down a few notches for me. It is not needed and just ruins the experience. Other than that I've seen a few mistakes, but since my grammar is not the best I won't comment on those, but imo it's nothing that a little editing would not be able to take care of, it just makes you wonder if QI actually cares about the quality of their product.

All in all with everything considered I'd give this novel a 2/5. It would have been a 3/5 but the translation and added vocabulary dropped it down to 2. <<less

I forced myself to read up to the last chapter available (11), and it left me disappointed. Everything so far seems unnatural, with already several cliché situations in a few chapters (op items, MC saving the damsel in distress, arrogant young master, luck as high as the heavens).

As it is only the beginning, I can't give less than 2 stars ; maybe it will grow better later. As for myself, I will drop this novel for now.

Really disappointed with author.

Potential of story was huge but never utilized to maximum.

Way too many plot holes

... more>>
Spoiler

1. At the starting of the novel, the combat power was not dependent on health but now after few hundred chapter it is dependent. It is total bullsh*t then why not mention it from the start. (He got witch king -something that enhances his combat power by 30 % but later you will read that he cant use all power while in the beginning he was able to).

2. Total bullsh*t of Luck and charm. Initially he was able to get away with anything due to luck but after some chapters his luck depend on the ladies around him not the luck points he got.

3. Bullsh*t missions from the saints. Clearly he was bullying the MC but no one has the ball to say anything. He changes rules of the group the way he likes. WTF. This is the 2nd most thing I hate about it in the novel.

4. His age / life -after nirvana stage he still got 102 years of life. F**k it. While you will find others cultivation lower than him lives quite few years. E.g - Zhuang family old bit*h aka the great grand mother of the Zhuang Bifan. Bifan or bufan they are about the same age of MC or older then take the age 25 yr, Bufan's father = 50 yrs, Bufan's grand father = 75 yrs, and old bit*h = 100yrs at least. Old bit*h still healthy and kicking but our MC lose his life using some artifact, its bullsh*t and rules changes all of sudden that he can't reincarnate.

5. About brother Yu or Xiangyu : after occupying king yan's body he joined elite force and Elder Cao promised that he will help MC unconditionally once but while 3 families of dragon city planned and MC wanted to get help he simply said I cant help you. No value for his own promise and after joining Bro yu did not get any benefits he still depends on MC to level up then why to let him join elite force ?

6. Paradise Island incident : Deimian the blood sucker planned huge bio chemical war on it but no repercussion from Rothchild family. If it was easy to attack and get away with it then there would have been no paradise island.

7. MC uses items from the chat group and other awe his power and say he is demi god but some one says he is not and all f**king families who were eye witness his power wants to kill him and make plans. Seriously BS.

8. Author can't you write a decent love story with out any things attached. All the harem members of MC has some f**king plot along with them. Lin Xiang---> poseidon's target. Lan Mengchen--->Zhuang family, Luo Puti --> Some Ancient faction, Yinmu/demonic fox---> Some f**king Bastard in Japan, Qingchen--> Enuch Husband, Liu Xuanxin---> Adopted to liu family and a sacrifice

[collapse]

There are many more BS. Officially quitting this BS novel for good. NOt good enough. One suggestion don't bother to even read, way too much nationalism thing <<less

Many readers do not approve of this novel as this seems as a cheap knock off of "red packet server", or even greater "cultivation chat group" or even for reason that it's on "evil" QI.

But it's like a light hearted and turn off ur brain kind of novel which can be enjoyed for some mindless fun, arrogance of Chen xiobei is really funny and the way he flaunts everything, and many times overestimate himself is funny, and even though the characters are not as well developed like in other good... more>> novels, some characters are really enjoyable. Thouh the first few plot points might be really same as red packet server, it becomes it own tale after sometime, if I want to say in "politically correct words" then it is a more campier, mindless and prody like version of above mentioned novels. Which in spite of having some huge plot holes can be enjoyed nonetheless? <<less

Dont know if it makes a sense or not the way the MC uses his items by expending spirit stones even though he was already on a higher starfield.

It's like " why bother leave earth then ".

And the way he is not even bothering cultivating himself to get stronger but relies on the special abilities of his pet to get strong..

This MC was not at all bothered that his using lifespan of him to just be fast a little for few days in exchange for years. Daf*ck he wants to... more>> cultivate then?

Though it was not that irritating to read it was like reading a half assed work from author though. Just saying.. <<less

This is pretty much what amounts to a poor man's Red Packet Server. Not sure what the reviewer HeavensW1ll is talking about, but everything about this novel is a lower tier compared to Red Packet Server. Don't misunderstand, I'm not a huge fan of that novel or anything. It's just that this novel is written so much worse.

The character's are ridiculously two dimensional. He's managed to get revenge on the girl who broke up with him, meet a beautiful girl who's instantly somewhat interested in him, become rich, save a... more>> life, and beat up a rich arrogant little master all within 10 chapters. Sorry... but that's utterly ridiculous. It almost doesn't even feel like a novel, but more like just a list of things the character does, like a fact list. There's little to no description, including the character's thought process. He's almost instantly confident in everything he does from the beginning of the novel, and due to blatant and amateurish plot armor, he always has the right item for the right situation. I don't mean he received an item a bunch of chapters back and can finally use it. Most of the time it happens within the SAME chapter!!! For example...

Spoiler

He manages to get a red packet with some health potion thing in it at the beginning of a chapter. Then an arrogant young master jerk shows up with his grandpa. The MC suddenly warns the grandpa a disaster is going to strike him if he doesn't leave (a skill he picked up like 4 chapters before) and walks away. In the same chapter, maybe like two paragraphs later, a person from the young master's group runs up and tells him the grandpa is in a coma and needs his help. He says ok, goes over, talks smack to the young master, and saves the grandpa. MAYBE this happened within two chapters, but I'm fairly certain it was one.

[collapse]

These aren't overly long chapters. The lack of description for pretty much anything leaves room for only one event to quickly follow another in short succession. It's like the author only cared about hitting the most utterly generic key point tropes in novels like this, and doesn't know how to write an actual novel. It's so generic and bland that it leaves a bad taste in your mouth while reading. While RPS definitely has it's own issues, at least the characters have SOME depth to them.

The only thing we know about this beautiful girl is that she's beautiful and rich, and of course, the "campus beauty". That's it. She just popped out of no where running at the MC screaming for him to save him from some gangsters although she didn't even know he existed before this. Of course the gangsters, before threatening him with violence and the girl with s*xual violence, turn around by the end of the chapter and call him Master Chen since he spoke a few generic sentences predicting his current life, like how his wife left him that day.

The only reason I'm not giving up right now is because it seems to have a heck of a lot of chapters translated already.. I mean, the characters EVENTUALLY have to be given some depth, and the novel too........ Right??... Forgot to mention, by chapter 14, there were THREE women he could have pretty much slept with if he put effort into it.

(Hell, even the "book cover" above is a rip off of Pet King. They just pasted a few characters over the phone, but the phone, hand and background is the exact same picture.)

EDIT: After getting to about chapter 50, I've decided to stop. It just felt like it was getting worse. I came back here to read some more reviews, hoping something in them would spark my interest to continue, but all I've read makes it sound like it gets 1000000000x times worse. A ridiculously big harem in which he doesn't sleep with any of them? The novel pretty much turns into a Wuxia novel?? Nationalism?? Racism, in yet ANOTHER Chinese novel?? You know... I've always heard that people say we Americans are racist, and sure, some are... but you don't find it in American book after book like you do in Chinese novels. It's in so many Chinese novels that I've grown numb to it.. Guess it's another generic trope the author had to add. Can't leave any out!

Sorry guys. I'm calling it. This novel is simply no good. While I'm all about everyone having their own opinion, I can only scratch my head at people who give this 5 stars. That's akin to claiming it's a masterpiece..... Seriously?..... Seriously!?!? <<less

Sorry for the bad grammar and mistakes English isn't my native language.

The novel is basically carbon copy of rps for the first 300ish chapters and from then on it changes into a classic cultivation story in a modern day using the items he gets from the red packet group to get rich. Once the immortal world comes in everything starts to change into a classic xianxia harem novel. MC is also never gets to the final step with his girls until very far into the story, more info in the... more>> spoilers below.

EDIT: Ch 3500 review

Read and skimmed abit up to chapter 3500 and thought I would update this, mostly harem info. Some of the info I said in my old review is wrong (?) majority is correct only one or two small details due the story progression and the author finally deciding to make things more clear.

Harem spoilers (Who main wife is)

Spoiler

Luo Puti. Luo Puti is the first offical wife of MC the one he actually marries first with a wedding etc.. MC also calls Luo Puti 大老婆 translating to big/head wife multiple times throughout the novel when she gets reunited with MC. Luo Puti also plays a bigger role later on and goes with the MC several time on his adventures. MC also gets a few new members in his harem, one of the girls (cant remember the name something xue) made a bet with MC that if she loses she will be the 小老婆 meaning little wife of the MC. MC wins the bet and she gets the little wife title while still not really liking him until he rescues her and she starts to open up. Lan mengchen also will probably get a big big power up at around 3500 but as im writing, this author still has not written it but it is very likely she gets the inheritance power. We find out that shes from this big and powerful family and she is the best inheritor of that family's inheritance power. Chang'e isn't in the harem yet offically but MC treats her as a very very close female friend. When she got captured by the queen mother of the west (translated name in english?) MC was planning on attacking heaven like what wukong did in journey to the west to rescue her. At this point chang'e is injured and is separated from MC, while MC is powering up to go rescue her. Very likely chang'e is in the harem unless author been trolling us the whole time or pulls out some bullsh*t out of his ass.

[collapse]

Old review ch 2280
When MC finally gets laid and the romance in the story

Spoiler

Late. Like I think in the 500s chapter called the goddess. From what I can remember he has s*x with 柳玄心 which translates to liu xuanxin shes not even introduced in the latest translation yet (she is named in around 800 I think). Shes imo is basically main wife in the novel as she is pretty strong and travel with him for some of his adventures in the immortal world while all the harem members are only mentioned in passing or we have like a little 1-2 chapters worth of interaction with them, while she gets like a few hundreds worth. She is also his destined partner and they are a couple that is only seen once in a million years who will create miracles and give each other lots of luck if they get together according to yue lao (moon god). However he does get a few more harem members added into his harem and they imo are more interesting than the ones he gets from the mortal world as they actually do something in the story instead of just sitting around doing nothing. His harem members mostly stay within the sect that he created in the immortal world while he goes out and does his thing because they are too weak to go out with him.

[collapse]

Immortal world +

Spoiler

The whole plot of the novel is him basically wanting to go to heaven where all the deities in the group chat are while he survives attack from the sub-religions in the group chat that are against each other. Its basically the same thing that happens in almost all xianxia novels. Go to new place -> offend someone ->Power up or get new op item to beat the bad guys -> become arrogant and start face slapping people -> beat the bad guys up -> rinse and repeat and within all of that sometimes you get a new harem member. The only twist and turns in the stories is how he interacts with the deities in the group chat and how he survives the attack from the opposing sub-religions within the group chat.

[collapse]

Overall I say the novel is decent enough to read if you have nothing better to do or just want a wish fulfillment novel to past the time with. <<less

Honestly, it's got a solid start and the whole idea is just great. I wonder why the score is so slow. Could it be because it's from QI? Well, despite the score, I'm sure a lot of readers would like this, especially those who enjoy harem and like the idea of a chat group full of deities in the modern world. I mean, if you enjoyed Red Packet Server, give this a chance. It's quite similar to it.
