妖王的报恩

by Gong Xinwen, 龚心文

【本文文案】
　　众叛亲离的妖王被带至人类的巢穴，心中充满屈辱和怨恨，
　　“卑鄙的人类，我堂堂大妖，岂可于一人类为仆。”
　　“不知羞耻的人类，竟摸我的尾巴，等我恢复妖力，必将你撕成碎片。”
　　谁知那个女人收留了他数日，喂他吃香喷喷的食物，捋顺他的毛发，包扎好他的伤口，又将他带回山林。
　　那人解开他的禁制，摸摸他的耳朵，对他说：“回去吧。给你自由。”
　　袁香儿学艺初成，入妖林，欲擒一小妖，契之以为使徒。
　　见一狼妖被众妖所伤，委顿于地，奄奄一息，周身血迹斑斑。袁香儿心中不忍，将其带回家中，哺食裹伤，悉心照料。狼妖野性难驯，每日对她龇牙咧嘴，凶恶异常。遂放之。
　　至此之后，每天外出归来的袁香儿欣喜的发现家门口总会多出一些奇怪的礼物。
　　偷偷躲在的妖王恨得牙痒痒：那个女人又和一只猫妖结契了，猫妖除了那张脸好看还有什么作用？
　　她竟然摸那只狐狸的尾巴，狐狸根本比不上我，我的尾巴才是最好的。

Demon King’s Repayment

(Original Title)


It was tragic and wholesome. It made me cry and laugh at the same time.

I did feel that it didn't need to be this long and could've been shortened. But I enjoyed it nonetheless. The lead characters went on adventures and it was like I was also with them.

There were so many arcs. I couldn't even recall all of them. They seem a bit repetitive sometimes but these arcs served their purpose alright.

The thing I appreciated the most in this novel was the way the author gave all the characters grey morality. None of us are all good or bad. Most of the time, in the web novels, we see only the good lead characters and the bad villains who were bad just because it was in their nature. But here, it was so much different. Every individual got their own backstory and the motivation behind their agenda except Tu Shan. It highlights this novel from other same cultivation novels.

The struggle shown between humans and the demons were shown beautifully. Both sides were in constant skirmishes. Sometimes, humans slaughtered the demons and other times, demons harmed the humans. This part really impressed me more than anything else. The leads did not choose sides just because.

The title may be a bit misleading. I mean, it's kind of true, but also kind of false. Only if you read, you'll know.

There were some characters that died and my eyes were sweating nonstop. There were also the couples who I shipped, who made it to the finale (thank God). There were also so many wholesome content and the kindness showed from both the human and demon side. The backstory of the characters were often tragic and it made me cry so much too. There were so many dynamics explored. The diversity of the relationships here is one of the best I've read in awhile.

This novel kind of has the found family vibes. And I wasn't complaining one bit. I loved the way the female lead met her friends throughout the novel and how they stuck out for each other.

The romance in this novel may be a bit underwhelming, especially during the last third of the novel. But it also had its swooning moments. After reading this, my obsession about werewolves has taken to a new height. Alas, only if we could get a Sirius like Nan He😩😩😩

The world-building has some tiny plotholes. But if you look past those then it is a great novel for binge reading.

4.5. 挺有意思的，人物都挺讨喜。男女都挺强的，不过人物刻画方面更偏向女性格强大。 看之前有人提到说很像夏目。夏目的动画没追完，不过看着看着确实感觉挺像的 -- 强大的人类和妖精做朋友的各种故事。 我最喜欢的部分是去找青龙的一路上，发生的事情都挺有意思的。总体来讲是和很通顺的爽文，好读不烧脑也不揪心，放松的时候读读挺有意思的。 男主的设定不是我喜欢的，不过也不影响看故事了。
