This Time, I’ll Be the One Wielding the Blade

Honestly, this book should definitely be in the top ten of the Xianxia (fantasy/martial arts) genre on Qidian. The reason it's not popular is largely due to its title, and then there's the synopsis. Look at the synopsis of "Ming Zun"—so sophisticated! And the title is just as bad. The author is clearly terrible at naming things. The writing is so smooth; reading this book is a real pleasure, especially compared to some of its competitors.

This is an excellent book. If I'm not blind, I should admit that the author is among the top 10% of writers on Qidian. It would be an injustice if a book like this wasn't included in the top three literary platforms and not recommended.

The fight scenes in this book are incredibly impressive, but the flaws include the executioner of the Qingyuan Realm and many instances of unresolved revenge. Of course, this is just my personal opinion. The Mingyuan setting is a bit problematic. Directly pulling people from another world—who the hell is this person, yet he's bound by his former subordinates? I laughed.

Thank you everyone for your donations and votes! During the book's release period, voting and adding to favorites are very important. If you're reading, please consider giving it a few recommendation votes. Thank you! (❁´ω`❁) I hope more people will be able to read this novel.

After seeing several pictures and hearing so much about that Qingyuan Taoist priest, you might as well just say he died in a car accident and time-traveled.

I've read 50 chapters. I came here for fantasy, but it's been mostly about war and daily life. It feels like it's taking forever to get to the main plot, but looking at the table of contents, I'm going to keep reading anyway. Personally, I don't think there's much overlap between fantasy readers and military fiction readers, so this kind of writing is too discouraging.

I only read the synopsis without reading the full story, and the author's statements seem contradictory. The protagonist doesn't want to be a pawn but wants to be the one playing the game. In this situation, how could the protagonist possibly achieve this without being decisive and ruthless? At the very least, he needs to be a ruthless, dark character. A good person simply couldn't do it; some things can't be done without being ruthless.

This is truly a high-quality book; I hope the author will continue to write more excellent works.

It's definitely a good book! I read 305 chapters in one go. I'm going to have to keep up with the updates! The writing style, story, and logic are all above average, no worse than the top 10 authors. One thing this author does better than those so-called "great authors" is: no padding! From the first chapter to the 305 I've read, the author has consistently written diligently!

This isn't a story about conquering the world; you're always just a pawn.
