Absolutely No Mindless Stories
I've been browsing Qidian for almost eight years, and both my age and my taste in books have grown. I can't handle brainless or beginner-level stories. I also can't handle the overly cerebral novels aimed at male readers. I'm a casual reader of women's fiction. I like entertaining little stories to pass the time. Sharing them here for everyone to enjoy!

Indeed, you shouldn't read reviews when reading books; it's bad luck.
I can't stand it anymore... The writing style is so different from her previous books. This cultivation novel has absolutely no logic. The male lead is like an idiot, believing everything people say, and there's no indication of his impressive background; he just keeps bragging. The female lead is even worse; she barely works out of her own way, she just has a cheat ability.
I've finished testing it out, but I couldn't continue after chapter thirteen. To describe it, it's a typical light novel: a combination of a loser/traitor story, a broken engagement story, all the supporting characters are idiots, and a ninja heroine (I don't know how the heroine managed to remain unfazed and calm while being insulted by a bunch of people for several minutes). Yeah, that's about it. If you have a strong stomach, you can read it. 🙂
This male lead is really annoying. He's always finding fault with the female lead, accusing her of being opportunistic and cunning. The female lead spends her days studying in the library and drawing talismans, yet he still looks down on her. What gives him the right to look down on others? Is it wrong for her to use the knowledge she learns from books?
Some book reviews say the author's cultivation novel is poorly written, which I strongly disagree with. There are already few female-oriented cultivation novels, and even fewer well-written ones. Why? Because they're difficult to write. If you're going to nitpick over such a good story, then don't read web novels, go read *Dream of the Red Chamber*!
Thoughts
Here's a brief book review. I initially wanted to read *The Starry Night* because I came across a clip on Douyin (TikTok) of Gu Baiying's Heart-Binding Bell ringing, which immediately captivated me, so I decided to read the full story. Before watching "The Starry Night," I had just finished watching "Changfeng Ferry," and the patriotism in it touched me from time to time.
Why are so many people criticizing such a good book?
Some people are really spouting nonsense. 😤
The premise of a female lead whose appearance is ruined and who later becomes stunningly beautiful is really disgusting. The idea of a toxic female supporting character engaging in intercourse is also disgusting.
The premise of this book really resonates with me, so why do so many people dislike it?
