it was a little too scattered and uneven for me to fully get into and like. i think maybe this kind of danmei just isnβt my thing π« freaking love the cover though (which was 100% why i delved into this book to begin with tbh π

I think I have to most complaints about this volume, but all in all, I enjoyed the series.
This volume has the most lore and (apparently plotting, but it was confusing for me. We get told the right backstory after hearing the partly fake one, but I couldn't tell you what those fake parts were. I was like, "Isn't this just the same story?" π There were just so many details, it was hard to keep up. Then,Shen Wei supposedly had this elaborate plan, and it all worked out, but I didn't even realize he was plotting something or why he couldn't just tell Yunlan π€·π»ββοΈ
The "endfight"/"defeating the villain" was really unspectacular(he just blew himself up wtf) (the whole end was too quick), and some things that got revealed felt random or were not explained in detail. It was just kinda like, "Yeah, it's like that" (like Guo Changcheng being the reincarnation of the wick??) . Speaking of Guo Changcheng, I did like his friendship with Chu Shuzhi. Their little soul collecting trip was actually the only storyline that got me emotional.
I love the relationship of Shen Wein and Zhao Yunlan, but the focus was so much on the other stuff here that there weren't as many moments. That emotional scene at the end of the main story didn't really get me because I was mad at what was happening xD Therefore, I did enjoy most of the bonus chapters. The last two were a bit weird/sad but interesting (but wdym they spent over 10.000 years living other lives in a pocket dimension π ).
All in all, a series I enjoyed, but wasn't a highlight. Too much confusing backstory and a quick ending. It should have focused more on its strong points: Charming characters with witty conversations. I loved their banter, also with the side characters (Daquing is the best πββ¬).
