Synopsis

HE, two heroines, both pure, both powerful, HE

Zhe Lan, the Sea God, is foremost among the five deities of the Upper Realm.

During the war between gods and demons, Zhe Lan was gravely wounded and the Moon God fell. The power of moonlight chose an inheritor in the mortal realm. Once recovered, Zhe Lan descended to find the inheritor at the request of an ancient god, to help her increase her cultivation and pass through three trials.

She was master of the seas of the world, and thought helping one person cultivate and become a god would be easy.

Lou Tingxu was born under an ill omen. Her father disliked her, and everyone else despised her. She secretly practiced cultivation to protect herself, only to have her cultivation destroyed twice. This was the torment of being forced to live among those she hated.

All she wanted was for her mother to be safe. She dreamed of taking her away from that den of demons, but in the end she was too late. Her mother was already a pile of bones at the bottom of a lake. This was the agony of wanting something she could never have.

From the moment she was born, she had endured every kind of injustice. Everything she had was taken from her. Only Zhe Lan gave to her without restraint.

She gave her an immortal cultivation method, divine techniques, and the only warmth and brightness in a glacier that had lasted for ages.

Lou Tingxu was someone parched enough to drink ice. She had once felt the bone-deep cold amid a blizzard. How could she now refuse a god so radiant and warm?

But no matter how wholeheartedly she devoted herself, no matter how deeply she loved, she could not escape the pain of parting from her beloved.

Lou Tingxu's uniquely tender affection warmed Zhe Lan's heart. Knowing there was a fire ahead, she still couldn't stop herself from flying straight into it. When it was time to part, she couldn't even look at her as she uttered a cruel warning:

“Lou Tingxu, don't do what you know you can't. I'll only think you foolish.”

Heartbroken, Lou Tingxu became a god, just as Zhe Lan had wished, and watched over a corner of the world. Though they were both in the divine realm, she no longer dared to look at Zhe Lan for long. One more glance, and she feared she would be unable to let go.

But then that woman appeared, eyes blurred with tears, drunk and sobbing in the Sea God's palace: “Lou Tingxu, why don't you love me? Why don't you want me?”

Please Recommend a Completed Novel With Two Female Leads

Ideally, something natural and believable, not a story that forces the protagonist to cling to someone powerful and then whitewashes them. Every other story has someone transmigrating into the villainess, then forcibly becoming a simp for the heroine. Often, nothing has even happened yet. Let feelings develop naturally. In so many stories, they fall head over heels right away. That's just...

Little Monkey Leader's writing is as good as ever. Compared to the previous lighthearted and casual style, the writing style has changed significantly this time, feeling very real overall. You can see a certain divinity in the characters (Leng Dan Lou), and at the same time, you can see a lot of humanity in the gods (Ao Jiao Lan).

This is the leader's first time writing a cultivation novel, and it's already fantastic! The main plot revolves around Xiaolou's cultivation and Zhelan's help, while the stories of Yuzhi and other companions enrich the narrative. The writing is as good as ever, especially the descriptions of fight scenes, which are so vivid you can almost picture them.

Although I don't know why the rating is so low, this book is truly amazing! I finished it in two days. The ensemble cast was so enjoyable; the whole team was united, the king's fight scenes were vividly depicted, and the plot didn't drag—it was all about the storyline. The only truly heartbreaking part was when Xiaolou became a god; the rest of the book is incredibly sweet!

This author's books are as good as ever. All the couples are incredibly sweet, the main characters are very friendly, and everyone trusts each other without suspicion or misunderstanding. The only angst-filled part, as you can see from the synopsis, is the section where Xiaolou becomes a god, which lasts about ten chapters (personally, I didn't find it too angsty).

The content is excellent, with numerous fight scenes described in great detail, creating a vivid and evocative atmosphere. Lou Tingxu's love for Zhe Lan is pure and selfless; she only hopes to be by her side forever, to one day stand shoulder to shoulder with her. Zhe Lan helps Lou Tingxu during her darkest time, giving her hope and companionship. The characters are vividly portrayed.

Having finished reading it, I have to say this is my absolute favorite book in the author's entire series. The charm of the ensemble cast is truly powerful, and the plot is very coherent with excellent foreshadowing. I hope the author will write more books with ensemble casts in the future! 😘

It's a great read. The writing is delicate, the characters are vividly portrayed, and the plot is engaging. In short, it's perfect—just the kind I like. However, why hasn't the author updated recently? Are you unwell? If so, I hope you recover soon and resume updating.

The author's books are as good as ever, highly recommended! Novels with dual female protagonists in a cultivation setting tend to be longer than those with other settings because they involve a growth process. Therefore, balancing the romance and plot is crucial. I think the author does this very well; the pacing is smooth and doesn't feel drawn out or perfunctory, but rather natural and flowing.

It's really well-written. Even I, who don't usually like fantasy novels, was captivated by the story. It really makes you want to keep reading. I rated it 7.9 When I first read it, and I expect it will surpass 9 in a while.
