"Hey, the cover scene happened at about
15-20%
of the book, that's neat"
I said, clueless, not knowing I was about to read the (so far, at least) darkest book in the series.

The way I gasped at the whole second backstory it's almost embarrassing. It does only make me ever more interested in whatever is going to happen in the present and why in the fuck is White No-face so obsessed over Xie Lian in particular.


That said, the darkness of it all almost made me forget that
they confessed as best as they could without saying the exact words. It's canon now. My life is in jumbles right now, I believe in love again.


I'm still flabbergasted, tho.
He really went full Joker in the past.
Holy shit. What the fuck.

During the beginning of the book, I actually wondered whether I had the wrong idea about Hua Cheng. Him being an evil stalker would've been so terrifying

Wow, when I read people saying act 4 was so heartbreaking and traumatising I didn't really believe it was going to be so hard but wow, just give my poor baby Xie Lian a break, he has been in constant pain. Going just through one or two of those things would have left me lifeless forever yet he still grows out of it. It's fascinating.

That moment when it's all in caps repeating the same words in that chapter left me pondering about life for a few hours wjfjskjrw I have also grown to appreciate much more Fengxin's character out of his former friends and servants. You did your best, boy *hugs all of the main cast because they truly need a big one*

Well, that was a whirlwind.
Loved the cave of 10000 gods arc at the end of book 3.
Book 4 was even more heartbreaking than expected. I'm distraught.

Vol. 7, here we go!
