Jun Yi is a cultivator. Before the age of sixteen, she had never met anyone besides her founding master.
When the apocalypse arrives, her founding master leaves behind a letter and disappears. With no other choice, Jun Yi descends the mountain and enters the world.
Human civilization is a precious treasure, its culture passed down through thousands of years. Jun Yi has read about it all in history books, and her heart is full of longing.
But luck is not on her side. By the time she sees it for herself, the ancient painting of human civilization, preserved for millennia, has already been riddled with holes.
With an innocent heart, she lives by the way of the noble gentleman, sword in hand and clad in white as pure as snow.
Like a blank sheet of paper, she enters the world with an open heart, never begrudging anyone her kindness.
But the darkness of human nature is an unfathomable abyss, reeking of decay.
When truth challenges her once again, Jun Yi can no longer answer with clear and confident certainty.
All that remains is a long silence...
The world has never been divided neatly into black and white.
Before the distinction between chaos and order, there is the primordial void.
There is no male lead in this story. The heroine witnesses the ugliness of human nature along the way. She begins openhearted and kind, then grows step by step. Through repeated questions of conscience, she comes to understand her own path.
A word of warning: the heroine is not the kind who ruthlessly wipes out every threat at the slightest provocation. At the start, she is neither omniscient nor all-powerful, and this is not a wish-fulfillment power fantasy. She grows step by step, coming to understand the good and evil, the light and darkness, in this world.
At the beginning, the heroine is openhearted and gentle as water. With an innocent heart, she saves people without hesitation and never begrudges them her resources. Jun Yi herself doesn’t care much for such material things.
So if you want a protagonist who grabs every advantage and eliminates every threat, this book isn’t for you.
How to describe this plot... Whether it's the female lead's sudden coma (which feels so childish) or Wenwen's subsequent charity... It's really uncomfortable to watch. This part of the plot is so jarring compared to the female lead's calm and collected demeanor earlier. The world is so small, the female lead is so weak, and the villain is inexplicably strong. Oh well, I'll just put it on my bookshelf and keep it there!
I think this book is good.
Keep it up! I've added it to my favorites, don't abandon the story!
😰😰Is the author still updating? It's been several days since then.
The author's character portrayal is excellent; several supporting characters have underlying behaviors, which is really great 🙂. I really like the female supporting character, Mu Yun. The villain, Wen Wen, is so hateful that you'll want to grind your teeth, but later on, he becomes more than just a one-dimensional character. I don't understand this complex person. If you don't take a moral stance, I admit he's very powerful.
The pseudo-ensemble acting was indeed poorly written; I suggest writing a lone wolf story instead. The pacing of the lone wolf scenes was quite good, but the ensemble scenes felt like time had stopped; whenever someone was being written about, everyone else's time seemed to freeze. The more character names appear in a chapter, the worse the writing becomes... Especially the transitional chapters.
