Synopsis

[Second transmigration + game System + Jianwang 3 + Honkai: Star Rail + plot-driven ensemble cast + protagonist with no romantic pairing + plenty of personal headcanons...]

Wei Rui transmigrates out of nowhere.

Good news: It's not her first time, so at least she has some skills to fall back on.

Bad news: She's transmigrated into the Honkai universe.

Good news: It's not a world of endless suffering, but a pan-galactic space comedy.

Bad news: She knows the plot, but the main story won't begin for another 6,007 years.

Good news: No big deal. She transmigrated to the Xianzhou, where she can become a Long-Life Species.

Bad news: Mara-Struck, kid.

Good news (?): She has a gingko-leaf effect of her own, so she'll be taken away before becoming Mara-Struck.

Bad news: She arrived even before the Calamity. The Ten-Lords Commission is in its fledgling days and already overwhelmed, with no time to hold a second trial.

For eight thousand years, the Xianzhou has sailed the stars. The Ten-Lords have judged billions.

Yet the Ten-Lords are no gods. Even under their authority, mistakes are made.

A comet falls from the heavens, and the Ambrosial Arbor begins to grow. A sword master from thousands of years ago, wrapped in golden leaves and consumed by deep rage and obsession, climbs out of her sealed tomb with sword in hand.

Gingko leaves whirl on the wind, eventually sweeping out of the Xianzhou and back into the sea of stars.

[The characters' intelligence in the story only reflects the author's intelligence, not the characters'. The protagonist's stance and their feelings toward certain characters are mainly based on the author's own preferences. Discussion is welcome, but don't insult anyone. If you absolutely must, insult me, not the protagonist.]

[Added 11/18: If you can't be bothered to follow the foreshadowing or accept imperfect protagonists and supporting characters, then please don't read this. Some people don't understand what's going on, can't accept the plot, and come here to spew nonsense. They really look like clowns.]

The setting and supporting characters are all very detailed. I got so angry by chapter 33 that I had to put it down to wait for more chapters to be released. The protagonist is still too gentle; he gets very angry even when treated "for your own good," but then quickly calms down, leaving me, the reader, emotionally unstable because I got so invested in the first half and got stuck in the second half. 🤦

It's a good read, the descriptions are quite detailed, but there aren't enough chapters. Also, the timeline is too long. Even ignoring the main plot, the Five Heroes of the Clouds alone span several thousand years. I estimate it will be around chapter 100 by the time the incident in Cangcheng happens. If you want to immediately read the main plot, you might want to reconsider.

Strengths: The writing is excellent, and the descriptions are very vivid, showing the author's dedication in imagining and depicting the scenes. The chivalrous spirit is strong, sometimes making the reader's blood boil and wishing they could fight alongside the protagonist.

The writing is exquisite, the character portrayals are meticulous, and the historical research and explanations of various settings are detailed! Although this is a crossover between JX3 and XingTie, it's okay if you haven't read JX3! 👍🏻 Because I haven't read any of it (and the fact that the male lead has no romantic partner is a big plus!

The author's writing is truly superb; I absolutely love the author's descriptions of scenery—they're so comfortable and vividly depict the scenes before my eyes. The character development is also incredibly complete and three-dimensional, without any of the superficiality of formulaic writing. However, the author devotes too much space to detail.

This is a very good book; the author's literary talent is evident. However, the author, like her name, is a procrastinator. It took 26 years to finish the first volume of this 24-year-old book, and the author says it will have five volumes. I can only hope that both the author and I live to see the book's completion.

It's good, but I came for the Hokkaido arc, which hasn't been mentioned yet (that is, the Hokkaido arc isn't a major character in the current plot, etc.), Which is a little disappointing. However, the synopsis mentions many original settings, and the writing is quite good, so it's acceptable.

Hmm, well, the writing is good, but there's a bit too much original content, resulting in a lot of characters with almost identical appearance times, making it hard to remember them all. Also, the scene where the protagonist wants to skip a grade but his older sister won't let him is a bit frustrating. However, considering the protagonist is a young boy 😏, I'll add one star.

The writing is excellent, with very detailed descriptions of both scenes and characters. However, this meticulous detail sometimes makes the writing feel a bit drawn out and the perspectives unclear. For example, the detailed descriptions of the various perspectives and psychological states during the banquet made it difficult for me to keep up with the shifts in perspectives.

This is amazing! I've always enjoyed reading fanfiction, but most of them only cover the official storyline, which gets a bit repetitive and boring after a while. The author is incredible; through interpreting the game's text and drawing on their own knowledge, they've filled in the gaps in the novel's world, making it grand and engaging. Each character's design and personality are captivating.
