"A Child's Heart" is well-written, but it's unlikely to be very popular. Everyone is busy and tired. I prefer the standard lighthearted and enjoyable kind of novel, with a touch of passion occasionally being even better. The male protagonist in this book has a nice-sounding childlike heart, but those who don't understand it are either childish or not very bright; it's not easy for him to get popular.
At first glance, the story setting of this book is quite attractive, but it gets a bit awkward later on. After fighting against all races outside the Great Wall for so many years, a bunch of people come out to lick the boots of the demon race during this peace talks. I'm wondering, with so many traitors, how did the Great Wall manage to hold on?
The protagonist's innate talent and aptitude are so exceptional that even the Three Pure Ones (Sanqing) are overly boastful—it's ridiculous and diminishes the Three Pure Ones' prestige. For those powerful figures, what kind of extraordinary talent haven't they seen? Even if we assume they're figures who created the world as easily as they did, what kind of innate talent couldn't they develop?
It feels like it's imitating that book on the leaderboard, but this kind of tactic of a level 1 newbie shocking a level 100 veteran is bound to fall apart later. 😅
Author, please stop writing about that daughter!
Stop writing about that daughter! It's so annoying! I don't know what kind of character you're trying to portray her as, but so far, she's just a lawless, unruly brat that nobody can control. You've given her all your wealth in the original story, which sometimes even leads to the protagonist being suppressed. It's been really frustrating reading this for the past few days.
A little
I've read most of it. I think I should be somewhat qualified to offer my opinion. There are two things I don't understand. First, Lao Tzu advocated non-action, but your novel is full of action; you have to get involved in everything. Actually, you could say it's a difference in personality. You can't use other books to judge your book.
Stop writing about your daughter. If my daughter were like that, I'd slap her to death.
The protagonist feels so disjointed. First, his family is destroyed, then he's adopted... To put it nicely, he's simple-minded and innocent; to put it bluntly, he's naive and hasn't been toughened up enough by society. You're writing about a chaotic world where ordinary people are killed without hesitation, yet the protagonist is neither ruthless nor impulsive (don't even mention killing that…
The main world is written like a pile of crap; everyone is useless and only protected by the protagonist's halo.
I watched it all in one go. It's contradictory; the ancient ways of showing off combined with modern themes are both exhilarating and awkward. After thinking about it for a while, I can only say it's utterly tacky.
