The beginning of the book warmed me up for the chill I was going to experience reading arc 4. It was so painful, yet so good. Xie Lian is such a well written character. I’m curious when White  No-Face’s identity will be revealed.

dark emotional hopeful inspiring mysterious sad tense medium-paced

4.75

EDIT: I only ever lower my ratings after letting the first rating sit, but the more time passes the more I realize how much I loved this volume so I’m giving it a 4.8 now. 

Warning: this is the most violent volume in the series thus far? Oh my god? I just wanted Hua Cheng back man it got so dark

XIE LIAN. 

Easily the best volume so far in terms of structure, theme, and writing! I know it’s not fair to assess each volume as is considering this is rlly just one book that publishers divided into equal parts, but this was just so clean compared to all the others that I think it should be praised for it. Anyway, this was quite good. I am such a sucker for stories where receiving one (1) single act of genuine human kindness and compassion can change someone else for the better!!!! Fair warning that this is 70% flashback but at this point…. I can forgive flashbacks if it’s TGCF.
