"So devoted and so debauched" is SUCH a phrase omg

I'm less suprised at the plot reveal and more shocked that someone attempted to translate the Chinese proverb about truth and falsity LOL: "Nothing true could be false, and nothing false could possibly become real"

“This kind of obsession is painful, but there’s joy in it. She hates me, and I refuse to hate her.”

It’s a bit on the nose tbh.

Ohhh the Jin yong inspo is strong in this one. Fully a lift of Dragon Sabre Heavenly Sword with the secluded healer in Flower Valley that swore never to use a specific method of healing

Oooo finally the reveal

Minimal proverbs and historical references in this but on the plus side we’re getting a lot of poetry!! Love my mom’s blorbo li bai

Ah the Jin Yong inspiration; a chain suspended over a ravine to a mysterious powerful sect the entire jianhu is trying to destroy à la jihad

WHY ARE YOU SWITCHING WHY IS XIONGDI GONE BUT JIEMEI STILL HEREEE

I don’t likeeeee it when the localization goes for “brother X” and “sister Y” instead of keeping xiongdijiemei

Okay I wasn’t expecting that

Insouciant

I do love some good poetry

*Fei

Typoooo typoooo Fu not Fri

Ohhh we finally have a sucking out poisoned blood trope!!!

Let lightning strike me where I stand if I speake one word of a lie

Does this count as having spent a thousand gold taels just for a beauty’s favour?

“THESE THINGS ARENT MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE”

Okay that’s so super cute

FWQ exhaled. “I adore you.”

YSY looked down at her. “There’s murder in your eyes,” she said, coolly impassive.

Okay they’re kinda cute

Fresh hate mingled with old grudges

“A palm strike wreathed in true qi”

Perhaps I’m getting used to the translations because this is a vibeeee

alacrity
This page is just banger after banger

CAO CAO MENTION LETS GOOO

Interesting

“FWQ didn’t like wine, nor did she like tea. But she loved fiddling with delicate little cups”

Yeah okay she has whimsy. And this is fun foreshadowing of her character. She’s allowed to be evil and unhinged, as a treat.

Oh I do love a woman who hates her father

Pls pls pls tell me she has some sort of mind control powers because otherwise FWQ is just a Mary sue

Irascible is a gorgeous word

ALREADY??!
