And so the intertwining story of Jin Ling's various uncles comes to an end. It covers the confrontation of Jin Guangyao and I have to say it's a very satisfying end at least in that department. I will never not be a little bitter about how WWX and Jiang Cheng never really reconciled with each other. But it's hard to let people back into your life once you've already cut them out so I get it.
This story holds a special place in my heart and I doubt I'll ever get tired of it no matter what media I consume it in. Whatever drugs MXTX put into this book I need some of those too for my own writings.
The extras were a nice little sprinkle of plot (poor Bichen...). I liked the ones with the juniors. They're just such a funny group of kids. " 'Jingyi, how can you call him that behind his back?' chided Lan Shizui. 'I call him that to his face too,' said Lan Jingyi, defensively." I love that they often meet up with Jin Ling and go on night hunts together. And that Jin Ling doesn't avoid WWX! Their relationship is finally pure and truly that of an uncle and nephew.
Wei Ying and Lan Zhan end up exactly how I wanted them too, and I love that they can live out the rest of their life happy and together. True comfort character material right there.
Everyday means everyday, y'know??

To be perfectly honest with you, this should be a 3.75 stars from me. I’m so disappointed in so many ways.
The only reason it gets a 4 stars is because of how much I love this series as a whole and as far as final books in a series go, the wrap up of the main story was great. 
It was the extra chapters that let me down and they made up more than half of the book. 
However the last two extra stories were what convinced me to put the rating back up. I think. I’m still considering it…

Take away some of the boring extra chapters and the chapters that literally? Included? romanticised sexual assault(?????????????????) then you’ve got yourself a brilliant novel, but I don’t think that’s something that I can just overlook or ignore. 

Lwj and wwx will always have a special place in my heart and i’ll miss them in novel-form. I just wish I could erase my memory of the incense burner chapter. I’ve never felt so uncomfortable.

a fairly enjoyable ending to this series with some surprising twists, even if the majority of the book ended up being the extremly horny extra chapters.

wangxian has no shame and im so sorry to the gusu lan for having to deal with the everyday occurrence of their very loud sex life.
