No offense intended, but after reading over fifty chapters, I still don't know who the main character is! At first, I thought it was Anping, but his descriptions of him decreased, while the Prince of Yan and others received a lot of attention. Then Anning was born, and I'm wondering if he's the main character. I'll keep reading. If it's really as I guessed, then there's been too much buildup.
As a novelist with virtually no background in Xianxia (fantasy/cultivation) fiction, to be able to create such a world-building novel with low-level fantasy elements, high-level martial arts, and elements of Jianghu (martial arts world), imperial court, and cultivation is truly amazing. I suspect that the slow pacing and the late introduction of the protagonist deterred many readers. I'm going to become the man who reads the longest!
The plum blossoms brave the snow, their fragrance born from the bitter cold.
No need to elaborate; anyone with a little patience and appreciation will recognize this as a good book.
The poem is wonderful, I love it! (Ahhh, I'm at a loss for words!) Keep up the good work, author! 💕💕
The score is too low. You've written 400,000 words, why are there so few people commenting?
The book is nice, it has that feel to it.
I don't understand. This book is quite good, so why are there so few readers and why is the score so low?
The subject matter is somewhat old, but the writing style is solid and the plot is clear. It's worth recommending, but the details need further polishing. It didn't really grab my attention, so I can't give it 4.5 stars; I'll give it four stars as encouragement. Keep it up!
I cried so hard, it was so good, but then I flipped to the end and found out the author abandoned the story. So heartbroken.
