Unfortunately, she ultimately died by her disciple’s sword. Several of her disciples said she had disgraced the righteous path and deserved to die. The sect she had given her life to protect said she had failed to act with 5.9kReads9.1Score721Shelves

    Reader note

    The first book features the female protagonists hope Heng and Yu Zhaoji. Both are highly skilled in combat and possess top-tier intelligence. Xi Heng is exceptionally talented; her sword can protect both the common people and a single individual. She walks on the front lines of slaying demons and monsters in the human world. She is aloof, decisive, and has extremely strong reflexes. The characters are well-developed, vivid, and reflective of the characters' actions and thoughts. Together, they save the world. Cultivating immortality is about fighting against the heavens. The heavens are ruthless and intend to destroy the world's spiritual veins, bringing calamity to all races. Everyone joins forces to form an alliance to fight against this great calamity. Hope Heng truly surprised me. The leader of the righteous path was not stubborn or inflexible. Instead, he was able to find another way to choose based on his own advantages when faced with a dilemma. The description of the relationship between Xi Heng and Yu Zhaoji is also very delicate. For me, this is a rare good cultivation novel. Since ancient times, humans, demons and monsters have been in conflict and confrontation. In the end, they joined forces to break the deadlock. Yu Zhaoji is different from all the demon male protagonists I have read before. He is calm, wise, treats his subordinates well, is good at using people to develop the demon race, and respects and understands everything about Xi Heng. He will not do anything disgusting under the guise of doing what is good for Xi Heng. The second book features Jiang Chan and Xiao Qian, both female protagonists who grow stronger through trials and tribulations. The resourceful and aloof heroine matures step by step, becoming powerful and intelligent. She transmigrates into a male-centric world, initially as a supporting character, but later discovers she was drawn there for a specific reason. She reconciles with the male lead, supporting him through hardships to finally be together. Jiang Chan's resilience moved me and also broke my heart. For the sake of the world, she had to sacrifice herself, separating the two lovers forever. From then on, resurrecting Jiang Chan and her master became Xiao Qian's obsession. Fortunately, Jiang Chan's righteousness brought them a glimmer of hope. Xiao Qian is the most satisfying young, passionate male protagonist I've read in a female-centric novel so far. The romance is also very engaging; they are mutually devoted, undeterred by adversity. My few words cannot fully capture their magnificent lives. Both strong couples are brilliantly written, and the author's writing is excellent. I highly recommend it!

    Reader note

    The first book is a strong recommendation! The female lead is a cool and aloof swordswoman, the number one righteous person. She's upright and honest without being pedantic, able to uphold her conscience and suppress evil. She's a truly universally acknowledged good person (not a pushover). The male lead is the crown prince of the demonic path, with a refined and noble demeanor, incredibly powerful, and devoted to the female lead. The female lead is essentially reborn; in her previous life, after she was murdered, the male lead dug up her grave and brought her remains into the demonic palace. He even waited until he was powerful enough to defeat her in her previous life before doing this, which was hilarious! Their love might seem a little twisted at first (the male lead didn't fully understand his own feelings), but later on, you'll fall in love with it! Highly recommended! 🥰🥰🥰 I haven't read the other two books yet, but the ratings and reviews seem pretty good, so you might want to give them a try. 😳😳😳

    Reader note

    The first book features a straightforward and decisive female lead, and her four junior sisters are all outstanding individuals. It's currently updated to the first junior sister's story. Our Empress is so cool! The junior sister is the Bright Emperor, the eldest sister is the Dark Emperor, and the male lead is a pure and innocent white lotus flower, honest to the core. The whole book is hilarious and humorous, highly recommended! The second book features a clear-headed female lead who cultivates both sword and music. The male lead is a cool and noble wolf-like figure, her senior brother. The original male and female leads have very little screen time, almost none. Also highly recommended! Check it out!
