I'm a paid commenter, this book is amazing!
Wow, it's a good book. I could tell after reading just a dozen chapters. The author's fundamentals are very solid; the world-building, character development, and story are all decent. It's a shame it's not a "feel-good" novel. Why isn't there a well-written "feel-good" novel like this? It's clearly a traditional, classic supernatural story.
The book by Banxian is fantastic! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍 🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍…
Although it is one of Banxian's early works, it is still very good. The content of the first few chapters is similar to the plot of "The Dragon Slayer", but it does not affect the overall story. However, the character of Wuya is not three-dimensional enough and is not as delicate as Xiaoyu and Liujia.
Absolutely wonderful! I hope to continue reading the author's books.
Excellent! This is the most enjoyable supernatural novel I've read so far. The author's writing style is witty and humorous, and the plot is full of twists and turns. I'll definitely keep reading.
It's really good. The male lead is wise, loyal, brave, resourceful, and capable. All the female leads are amazing. It's very enjoyable to watch, with both happy and touching moments. It's definitely worth watching.
It's alright. The logic is relatively complete, and the plot flows smoothly. Although there were a few mistakes in the identities at the end, it's still quite good. However, the plot about the elixir of immortality in the later part is a bit far-fetched, but it's still acceptable. I hope a second part will be released soon.
The plot is well-structured, and the brave and resourceful protagonist is very likable; it's definitely worth watching.
Okay 👌🏻. It's just that the hype is a bit too much.
