And here I was... thinking of branching out since the description is actually somewhat understandable for once.

Guess I won't be reading this then.
 
if you plan to read this DON'T MY BLOOD ARE BOILING AND MY BRAIN IS GETTING SMALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
For anyone who is considering picking this up just know, up until Twilight scans starts this the tl is trash. But the world and story is interesting enough that I highly recommend sticking with it. If you can power through the brain cancer inducing arah scans then you'll get to the good stuff.
 
The pacing is broken, the tone is all over the place and it seems to have forgotten the basics of classical Chinese storytelling, which is ironic since it explicitly references huaxia (ie Traditional Chinese Culture)....

Like seriously, studying some old school Shaw brothers stuff (One-Armed Swordsman comes to mind for this one) or really any 60-70's wuxia would do wonders for a story like this. Sword of the Yue Maiden ought to be mandatory reading for authors in the genre, especially on how to handle overpowered characters. Heck, even some xianxia has better structure than this mess. Well, maybe that's not fair. There are gods and magic, so I guess it's generic fantasy xianxia for an international audience?

Also, the description has absolutely nothing to do with the story. It directly contradicts the story, even.

I'm still reading it though, cause it's isekai and I have a problem that way.

EDIT, 1 mo later: Nah, I couldn't take it anymore and gave up....
 
The art is great, but the story is so so. Too quick/ not adequate explanation. Chinese Manga needs to develop story better. Comics is not about you can draw, but also how you could story tell to your audience. So far many chinese manga just looks like picture book for me. Too Bad.....
 
So.... why is the girl on the cover page when shes
died in chapter 3........ fucking seriously ? dam waste of time and shouldnt be promoting her as part of the story. Hate shit like that.

And then the author right after, trolling us with a shota dragon. I lost all my motivation. Ima find something else to read
 
@Velsy i remember Junpei from jujutsu kaisen (I mean in OP I saw Junpei with Itadori and his friend but Mappa studio bait us) maybe she's gonna be revive in the future the shots dragon? maybe in the future as well.
 
j'adore la version français 😄continuer de traduire 😄 et si possible vous pouvait faire 2 chapitre par semaines par ce que vous mettez trop longtemps 😅 ?
