I saw the reviews that this has and I'm doubting we read the same thing???? Maybe there's another extra book or something??
Does it count as 'finished' if I stopped reading all those extremely long and horrifying sex scenes after a few paragraphs? I don't care, I am beyond traumatized so the least I can do is making this count as another book of my 2021 challenge.
However, the stories that are NOT about crazy violent morally-questionable sex are quite cute. The single purpose I had to read this was to see if Jin Ling was friends with the Lan gang, AND HE IS. I was hoping for a little of Jiang Cheng but I knew it was kind of pointless.The 'Lotus Seed Pod' story is also heart warming and I need more Jiang-siblings content.
But really, I feel like I should make a legal demand or something. I want to talk to past me and warn her: do not read this, just look at the 3 lasts stories. Oh well, seems like curiosity killed the cat.
Can anyone recommend me some very PG-13 Victorian-esque slow burn? I need to heal.
Vale vale, ame todos los libros. Pero aja ¡LOS EXTRAS, LOS EXTRAS! SON TODO LO QUE ESTA BIEN EN MI VIDAAAAA😍😍😍 Ame ver a mis bebés juntos y casados. Fue el final perfecto. Ahora voy por los libros de mi amado Hua Cheng 🥰
I did it! I finished the whole series. This has been very bittersweet, as I approach the last page I was trying the prolong the process as much as I could. I don't actually want to part with it. This series has been keeping me up at night as I'd read it before bed, and I'll get too excited to fall asleep. The extra chapters were definite *chef kiss* My hearts literally went *doki* *doki* Lan Wangji, Hanguang-jun, Er-gege, LAN ZHAN!! definitely set the most unachievable standard of your ideal man. But this isn't the end for me, there's still manhua to read and season 3 of donghua to come up. I'm never gonna be done with this series, am I? No complaints though, heheh~
I advise you not to read it, even if you loved the previous books. I did. But after this I'm truly disappointed. As much as I loved the first books, I found this boring, without purpose and missing all parts that I enjoyed in the series. The sex screens are pure porn and I am not finding any rape scenary as a turn on. The two key characters did not show anything new, neither alone or within their partnership. The stories are flat, lacking the atmosphere and the mistic turning points. Simply horribly painful, felt like skinning a skeleton for more money. Or emptying the author's drawer pulling all (previously thrown out) pieces and selling for fans.
It did feel like an extra book let me just say that. I was a bit overwhelmed by the sex scenes coming one after another(no pun intended). I was glad that we got little flaahbacks and also we got to see the kids how they are doing in their cultivation journey. Overall it was a great finish for the series.

Eveything hurts, my life just lost its meaning...streaks dont hmu :( I can't believe it is OVER. :( IM SO SAD AHHH AHHHHH. This colection of extras has surprised me in a good way, to be honest I expected the worse because I had read a lot of bad things about it (and ngl I see where do they come from) but I think the good outshines the bad in many ways :( I ADORED most of the short stories, I really thought it was gonna be 99% wangxian fanservice (and i wasnt complaining) but thats not even close, we still got little plots filled with mistery, adventure and yeah a tiny bit of DESERVED wangxian fanservice :) my heart belongs to them and the juniors only!!!!
If I am not rating it with five stars it is because maybe I was expecting a little bit more when it comes to the R-rated parts??? (I'm mentioning it since they indeed cover a lot of chapters in this book) I think they could have been developed in better ways and with more emotion. Some were very long and kinda boring so I guess they were not for me, but tbh it didn't affect how much I adore the story and they weren't as bad as I expected (ao3 do ur job)
I can say for sure im rereading the entire series sooner or later :( they have a big part of my heart already and I cannot wait to start the animation :(((
La advertencia aquí es: de las escenas NSFW mas intensas que he leído en un libro en los primeros capítulos!!!!!!!! Ay, honestamente, leería la historia de cualquiera de estos personajes en individual, me gustaría saber que sigue en la vida de Jiang Cheng, era lógico que no iba a haber más futuro con Wei WuXian y lo acepto, pero ¿cómo ser individual? También me hubiera gustado ver mucho mucho más de Jin Ling 🥺, Representa un poco mis problemas que también me gustaría ver más de Xue Yang, o claro… de Jin GuangYao y XiChen (porque a mi no me engañan JSJSJS)
Pero en especial de la banda de los Lan, amaría poder ver crecer Lan SiZhui y Jin Ling :( :( :( :( no sé. Me siento muy triste de tener que dejar ir a estos personajes, honestamente leería mil extras de estos, aun si las escenas no tuvieran un plot.
