Reviews with content warning for Violence - Благословение небожителей, том 2

Since the characters are for the majority hundreds of years old you can imagine that there is a lot of backstory. It seems that we got a nice chunk of a flashback of it in this volume.

In the previous volume this was handled more as telling history or sharing gossip which was amusing because of the lens it was told from. For the flashback it was more of a lived experience so not much humor.

I'm still enjoying the story and since it is predominantly character based with some "baddie-of-the-week" elements the previous experiences of a nigh immortal character are integral.

My love for this series is beyond words. Book 2 was everything I wanted but didn't know to expect. The perfect mix of fascinating plot and at times astonishing, at times devastating character development. The world building is immaculate. MXTX has built a universe that is riveting beyond belief. Hua Cheng and Xie Lian's romance is devastatingly perfect.

Absolutely stunning. Drew on a lot of emotions and kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time. I struggled to put it down. Cannot wait for it to be animated in the future!
