Why Is a Good-for-Nothing Like Me the Disciple of a Genius Sword Immortal?

After reading it, I felt it was worth watching. The only problem was that it was dragging. I could hardly feel the main plot, and all the interactions were almost the same with different names. It felt like a slice-of-life story. There were so many unnecessary and repetitive daily chapters between each main event. The author didn't need to write so many daily interactions every day just to reach a word count. The main plot had a very weak presence (although it was there). Without any plot development, the reader only had a half-hearted reading experience.

The male lead, well, he starts off as the typical weak and disabled type... But his handsome face and seemingly gigolo-like plot are quite interesting. It's starting to seem interesting, then he finds a powerful figure to mentor him, clinging to their coattails... More characters gradually appear... Then I figured it out: the male lead has three identities: based on his witty remarks, he might have transmigrated from another world, namely Earth! Then he was reincarnated in Kyushu and adopted by the Li Xiaoyu family... But he actually has another identity! He's the Sword God Zhou Qi... At first, I thought the name "Sunday" was funny, but thinking about it, there are seven days in a week, and after Saturday comes...

You've started writing a bit more and then suddenly added a mini-drama, a side story. It's not that bad in itself, but the length is getting increasingly long and the pacing is getting slower. It feels padded out. I stopped reading the last book after the main character; there were too many foreshadowing elements, and too much space was spent trying to connect the plot. I felt like switching books. Other authors try to avoid this; they clearly indicate the individual character stories and side stories for readers to choose from. But you're just cramming them into the main text, making it feel like a long-running martial arts drama. However, the characters aren't really main characters, and the amount of time spent on them is excessive. This is a light novel, right? This kind of...

Most of the characters are intellectually challenged, have warped values, and the plot drags on endlessly, making it incredibly frustrating to watch. It's the kind of story where the whole world seems to be against the protagonist, which is really boring. The plot starts with a talented maid being taken to a mountain retreat, and her master, just because of a vow to sever worldly ties, wants to cut off all contact between the maid and the protagonist. She's even unwilling to let the protagonist stay on the mountain as a lowly sweeper. It's utterly brainless. Even the disciples, knowing the protagonist and maid have a good relationship, don't try to foster it; instead, they constantly mock the protagonist and incite hatred. One after another, these mindless characters appear, making it very difficult to watch.

Previously, it was said that the protagonist would return to the mountain gate in two days, but now it's been dragged on for so long! There are more chapters with Sima Xiangru than with the master???? Are you planning to change the main character?? Stop dragging it out, it's pointless. In my opinion, writing about other things after killing the Dragon King isn't a big problem, but writing too much about him isn't good, is it? Shouldn't we focus more on the master? I personally still really like the master, so I'm anxious when I don't see him. So I wrote these words to tell the author, please don't make the same mistakes again.

I just finished reading the first five and a half chapters. There's no overwhelming martial arts prowess, nor any special elixirs or formations. Usually, the protagonist isn't a great fighter, but they at least possess these skills or strategies, though they only have a good-looking appearance. In terms of martial arts, there's a sense of a sword god, but usually, after one or two appearances, it's remembered and then the main plot moves on, but it doesn't feel overly drawn out. Perhaps due to the limited number of demons and monsters for the protagonist to hone, and given his personality, the plot mostly consists of daily life. While the interactions with his master are quite good, it inevitably gets a bit tedious after a while.

It's been almost two years, and you still haven't stopped writing? Can't you at least post an announcement? I always come back with high hopes, only to leave disappointed.

Fire rises, dragon teeth shrouded in sandstorm, two figures, three shadows, one sword wielding. Ancient village hidden, path lost in confusion, the void shattered, cause and effect woven. Fate thin, body crippled, without immortality, he raises his head, startled by her glance back. Lonely, rare sounds, the firelight burning, finding solace in the green bamboo grove. The Dao command silently turns the wheel of fate, a hidden dragon beneath the mountain, not in the abyss. Three thousand evening snows adorn red cherry blossoms, meeting again, people and things are no longer the same. This life is driven by the blade, the heart unaware, the dragon's head of the past life severed in this one. White-clad, a light laugh like a wolf's gaze, words contradicting heart, protecting all. Life and death, chaos, the shattered mirror complete, prejudice clouding the heart, sowing evil seeds. Wooden ox and flowing horse broken, sword god Zhou Qi complete. Yet, the Great Ancestor is confused, not recognizing the person before him, the Zhou rituals alternating, bewildered by past and present lives. Evening sword sinks into the tomb, amber breaks, demons appear in the world. But, the Great Ancestor understands...

I'm not against ensemble dramas; a well-written one is much more enjoyable than a single-protagonist story. But I'm here for Sunday, after all. Couldn't the ensemble or fragmented parts have waited until the main plot had progressed a bit? Everyone knows we're just waiting for Sunday's big episode. It's not that the Dragon Scale part is badly written, it's just that I think it could have waited. There's no rush; everyone's thinking about the beautiful master, the caring maid, the senior sister, and the other female leads. Um, selfishly speaking, from the moment you started writing this common "picking up a wife" trope, can I assume your main plot was having some trouble, so you just wrote an easier fragmented part? If that's really the case...

Those still waiting for this book should give up hope. The timeline of its hiatus gives a rough idea. As we all know, yuri/transformation stories have seen a surge in popularity on Pineapple Bun (a Chinese online forum), leading to a loss of readers and authors of male-protagonist novels. The book's hiatus likely coincided with that period of significant shift in trends. If this is correct, the author has probably already changed their identity and is active on other websites. Based on this, the book is almost certainly doomed.
