As the grandmaster of demonic cultivation, Wei Wuxian roamed the world, hated by millions for committing acts of necromancy. Overthrown by the powerful clans he had attempted to subjugate, Wei Wuxian is supposedly killed by his shidi in order to save the cultivation world.

Restored to life in the body of Mo Xuanyu, the local cut-sleeve lunatic, in order to exact revenge on his abusive relatives, Wei Wuxian quickly finds himself spiralling back into his old life when he’s taken away by the cold-hearted, stern, and ultimately quite boring Lan Wangji – who might be harbouring warmer feelings than contempt. Perhaps of the…romantic kind?

But despite his new beginning, Wei Wuxian begins to unravel a decade and a half long mystery that is set to undo the very fabric of the cultivation world as they know it.

A mysterious, action-packed thriller of a ride, this is a journey you won’t want to miss!

Things I enjoy:

  • The MC is hilarious and has multi-facets. He can be kind, cruel, dense (when it comes to the ML's feelings for him), sharp... etc. He feels incredibly real to me because of this.
  • The cast of characters are varied and incredibly charming! Each of them have strengths and flaws. I think creating likable characters is definitely the writer's strength! In fact, the intricate and highly tangled interpersonal relationships is my fav part of this novel!! And also these relationships is the driving force of the plot! Yo have this charming cast drive the plot??? Rip my heart. I will say that like most BL novels, likeable strong women who are still alive does not happen here, but! at least there are likeable ones!
  • The going back and forth between the present and the past. This is definitely the novel's strength. The present has a mystery plot (whos that pokemon? Ahem I mean corpse). The past is incredibly heart breaking. So the structure of going back and forth between the present and the past help breaks the intrigue and sad parts into manageable chunks for me and keep the novel exciting.
  • The bromance between all the side characters. Yes this can go in point (2) but seriously all the different relationships are so enjoyable for me I have to mention it again.
What doesn't work for me:

  • The writing style of information dump. I have a strong preference for identifying characters by their action and dialogue, and I am very bad at reading blocks of text on character background info. To be honest I almost dropped the novel in the beginning when the writer describes Mo Xuanyu's background because I am just That Bad at reading text blocks of background info lol. Luckily blocks do not happen often!
  • That dream s*x scene in the extra
    Spoiler

    the r*pe fantasy one? Just makes me cringe

Overall: Good characters, good plot with a sprinkling of cute happy ending romance that has a bit of tragic past.

I absolutely love this novel, the MC/ML dynamic is so pure it brings tears to my eyes. It's also super rare to have a ML that ISN'T extremely possessive with yandere tendencies. Although I didn't give it 5/5 because I agree with some who have said the flashbacks were a bit excessive.

One of the best novels I have read, even if it gets confusing at times with the flashbacks. The characters are really well written and the story is fantastic, it pulls your strings when they should and is totally delightful.

i love the story. Its very solid. I like the way lan zhan show his love to wei ying. I cant wait till the end. Yeah, I dont really like the flashback but it still important to the story. Because it explain every thing that happen to wei ying.

wei ying character is cute. He is like pampered pricess and the one who pamper him the most is lan zhan the seme. Cool, calm and confident. But still cute, cause when lan zhan drunk he is cute as hell.

the other characters... more>> are interesting too. Not just some canon fodder that come and goes. They have background story.

overall I give two thumbs up for this novel. Because this novel that make me wants to read the Chinese novel. Oh, you should watch the anime too. <<less
