There is more to a fulfilling life than constant fighting and bloodshed as what is the point of having power if you can never slow down and just relax. Don't get me wrong I enjoy many other webnovels that have constant action as they get the blood pumping but it is also nice to come across a different kind of webnovel that isn't full of the same exausted tropes.
I recommend this series for those who enjoy Wuxia like Transcending the Nine Heavens (due to well thought out characters who are not 2 dimensional) and Otherworldly Evil Monarch (because of the use of modern day knowledge used well in another world).
Will update review as I progress in reading but I hope that my impressions remain the same and that there may be some good action sequences alongside the other aspects.
Update 04/02/17 c 134: Still 5 stars for me as the action has fully ramped up ever since the MC made his way back home.
First a warning to those who only like the cheap web novels here, this isn't one! Well it may be a wn but not a cheap one... If you can't stand reading the backstories of characters, slowly moving plot and long descriptions this isn't for you, for example Harry Potter where it takes 500 pages to describe what happens in one year and characters have real personalities, they're also not mentally disabled as in xianxia. We start in the middle of MC's life where he already transmigrated for no reason as usual and his former life doesn't matter other than being said he was a crafstman but that isn't of much use up to the latest chap translated for now. There are a few too many flashbacks which leads you to understanding Locke's situation after spending a few years in another world, some don't like these info dumps as they call them lol but I didn't mind. Locke, 40 in his former life and now 24 is somehow naive in his love life as he got duped by a gold digger... anyway he has funny friends which follow him on a loooong journey to become a lord of his family clan which is in dire straits. The journey is where the real plot begins (planning starts at c42 and to actually get moving ~50), it is filled with what you want "Kingdom bulding!" well it's convoy building for now but you get the picture. However due to him becoming a lord, his friends get more serious/less funny which is a shame. Latest chapters are about him finally arriving and settling the score with his enemies, building stuff... Oh almost forgot, until now there is no technology advancement, he made some useless stuff in the beginning and pretty much gave the stuff away, fck he was even giving gold away as he was living his life without ambition but luckily he had to become a lord so that changed. There are hints there will be technology developments, for now Locke is focused on defending so he doesn't have the time. Enjoy this rare jewel on NU!
Edit: I've only realised this after reading chapter by chaper since I've caught up with the latest one, it is a bit boring reading all the statistics, how many soldiers in a squad and of what type, how many kills, injured... skip read that and it's still an awesome novel
"After his consciousness transcended worlds and entered the body of an exiled noble youth, summons arrived for him ten years later to return and succeed the title of the Lord. Faced with a desolate dominion, uneducated common folk, treacherous nobles as well as the current Lord Duke, how will he cope and thrive?" None of it is seen in the chapters so far and according to the translator, there's still plenty to read until the main plot is set in motion. This entire entry arc is a giant pile of literary manure that's supposed to fertilize the development of the character and rationalize some of his most likely poor decisions later on. And it is very and fully boring as hell. I skipped entire paragraphs that were just fluff details and feel no loss whatsoever. These entire 21 chapters would've been only 4 or 5 in any other novel of the same subject. Why did I leave 4 stars for the review then? Exactly because of it. This review is as much a criticism for the inflated 21 chapters and some more on the way, as it is expectation for the story as a whole. The world building, the character development, the storytelling, I have expectations that it will all be richly expanded and bring forth a sentiment of fulfillment. This isn't something to be read chapter by chapter, but arc by arc. So, if you are not someone who can stand a slow start and a whole lot of pointless fluff, it's best you don't stress yourself. However if you like chapters with plenty of details for each moment and thought, then this is the good stuff you've been looking for. So far.
Its a little bit r*pey, the main character gives away women to his men and he forced himself on one of the female main characters, the author does bullsh*t such as the main character being incredibly under cultivated but is able to take on Blade masters. Its incredibly s*upid, there's parts where the convoy the main characters friends are leading gets over 1 million people and somehow being able to feed EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM not only that but to add more bull sh*t the main character pillages and loots a duke and takes ALL OF HIS POPULATION which is more than 1 million people I believe, the main character needlessly kills animals that were defending their children despite it being his mens fault (Which happens a lot) he's also extremely arrogant while dishonoring his heritage and ancestors.
He also doesn't annexes the dukes lands which is quite questionable, basically the main character is basically the genghis khan, raping women, handing women off to his subordinates and killing innocents. You'll get extremely frustrated with this if you don't like history dumping, in a matter of days he also provides shelter for all of his people and constructed a harbor and a small fleet shortly after the 1 million people is added to his population, he doesn't take responsibilities for his actions and can sometimes be quite sexist. He's also a cuck as he let's his ex go, ruin his room and let's her kiss him, not only that but he helps her indirectly by giving him his business and all the models for his dresses. That part extremely frustrated me and pissed me off. As of right now the main character has r*ped basically 2 women, he forced himself on what you would basically call a nun and his maid. Will definitely increase if the story keeps going as it is.
