The world building is really good, I'm already fully invested. Storyline-wise, we'll see...I always consume BL media, never GL, so I'm not sure how I'll like the romantic aspects but as far as the fantasy and world, it gets an approval.

What is even happening anymore...

"There had been no promises between them. No foreseeable future. But Mo Xi's heart had never cooled, as if he meant to be caught up in Gu Mang for a lifetime. They had nothing. They could only turn their love, control, and possessiveness into this intense and yearning entanglement."

"I know your life's been horribly hard. So many people have toyed with you...so you don't dare accept what others give you. You don't dare believe what others promise you. But I would never lie to you. Wait for me. I will give you a home."
Where my Mo Xi at😭

"How did Gu Mang ever protect me? I only know that he left a scar on my chest that will never fade. I only remember that he tried to kill me. I hate him."
Bro says as he constantly has flashbacks of their friendship/affair and considers Gu Mang the one person who showed him life was worth living🫠

"Hasn't it always been you? It was you who provoked me, you who came to find me...It was you who came to my side with a smile. It was you who pulled me back from the edge."
Mo Xi's mixed up hate/love emotions are so raw and real, I connect with him SO much.

"I DO want to live! What's wrong with wanting to live with a clear conscience?! Mo Xi, do you understand me? Huh?! I can't stand to live like this! I can't bear it! My dreams are filled with the faces of dead men! I can't keep going if I'm sober! Do you know what that pain feels like? The kind that makes you want to die night and day?! You have no idea!"
Don't read this if you're a war veteran or suicidal...

"Then what was it actually?" Li Wei asked curiously.
"Between him and me?" Mo Xi smiled very slightly. Something bitter was hidden in that smile. "Hard to say. Can't be said." He paused. "Nor should it be said," he finished slowly.
BRO IS SUCH A YEARNERRR THIS SERIES IS GONNA MAKE ME CRY I CAN FEEL IT

"Mo Xi had never dared to demand Gu Mang's first time; he had only ever, with utmost care, passed all his own firsts into Gu Mang's hands. He had stubbornly refused to say how important these were to him, but in his heart, he still nervously hoped Gu Mang would treasure these moments. But Gu Mang had trampled his heart underfoot."
It's okay boo I understand😭

NO WAY!!! GU MANG LOST HIS MEMORIES??? I DID NOT SEE THAT COMING!!! This is gonna be a sad one, isn't it...like make me ugly sob for years afterwards sad...also I already HATE Zhou-gongzi, like no we cannot SHARE WTF. Please I'm already scarred from the 2 in 1, don't do this to me again😭 (Jk jk I doubt Mo Xi will let that slide)

THAT IS SO SAD. WHAT. THEY JUST THROW ALL THEIR PRISONERS OF WAR IN A BROTHEL???

"Light was something you gave me; warmth was something you brought me. All the blood that races through my heart is because of you. Without you, I wouldn't have made it to today."
Mo Xi is thinking this as Gu Mang is actively stabbing him in the heart. Think about that.

Not gonna lie, I'm actually really excited for this battle. The vibes of the story are now pretty close to Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation and I actually really like it.

Okay so basically this is what I've pieced together: The Old Palace Master was a pedo who liked Su Xiyan, but she fell in love with Tianlang-Jun and got pregnant. Because he was angry, the Old Palace Master orchestrated the trap for Tianlang-Jun using the excuse he was a demon, and Su Xiyan ran away to give birth. Tianlang-Jun, thinking she betrayed him, began his grand plan to destroy humanity.

If the book is insinuating what I think it's insinuating about the Old Palace Master...poor Luo Binghe😭 I freaking hate pedos. Poor baby's behavior makes so much more sense now.

Tianlang-Jun is such a diva, lounging in his coffin and then being all "oopsie there goes my arm again, let's just snap that back on." Like OKAY SIR! Also I'm loving this shift in the relationship between Luo Binghe and Shen Qingqiu, it seems much more genuine now and I think I'll have only positive things to say in the future.

Finally starting to see signs of an actual plot line! Seems like Shen Qingqiu accidentally unleashed Demon King Tianlang-Jun and he's gonna be the final boss in the end.

That was lowkey crazy. Like...that was not a romantic first kiss AT ALL. That was straight up crazy. These two are TOXIC.

Wow this book is really time skip heavy. I like it though, it serves the story well. Also I'm loving Shen Qingqiu's power up and all the changes he's bringing to the world of the novel as well. He might actually have a chance to contend with Luo Binghe in the future and that's going to be epic.

THERE IT IS!!! THERE'S THE WRITING I KNOW AND LOVE!!! Oh, things are about to get SO good!!!

I'm still so conflicted about this story. It's good, and there are some parts that are really fun and exciting, but there's a lot of super boring overexplaining in between that I just can't get over. And I STILL don't really understand the point of the plot...

WHAT. WHAT DID I JUST READ??? WHAT DO YOU MEAN ZHEN DIED😭 I understand why he had to sacrifice himself to put the world back into balance but STILL. Prince Xian will only be truly happy if BOTH his mother and Zhen are alive. Trading one life for another seems pointless...

...I did not see that coming...that was done SO WELL. At first I was like "oh Hei Xing is just a grumpy old tortoise"...then, "Fahai disguised himself as Hei Xing?"...before finally, "WAIT THEY'RE THE SAME PERSON?!" I thought he was supposed to be the wise old mentor character but he was the VILLAIN!!! And then right when everything got happy, XIAN'S MOTHER DIED??? WHAT.

"Power makes good people uneasy rather than joyful or boastful. That's why good people so rarely rise to power."

"A soulmate is someone who knows everything about you, maybe even knows you better than you know yourself, and who will stand by you no matter how dark or ugly you feel inside. You'll get mad at each other sometimes, but you can imagine spending the rest of eternity with this person, because you know the two of you will never get tired of each other...or stop loving each other."

The Meliai sound so cool

SO MUCH HAPPENED. AGH. I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE TO BEGIN WITH THIS. IT'S JUST TOO GOOD.

That was the heaviest few chapters yet...omg that's so sad. Jason wasn't a favorite of mine but I SWEAR he had plot armor (Apparently not). And Piper's reaction...that was just too raw and real...
