Impeccable! 

I had so much fun reading this story. It’s so difficult to see the cultivators as anything else but fickle gods so them being stumped about such questions like ‘what is love?’ is so funny. Wenren È thinks himself so smart but boiii he has no idea what’s going on most of the time. 

The characters are well crafted and have such strong personalities that they were a pleasure to read about. Sometimes in Danmeis it happens that female characters have no representation but Baili Qianmiao is such a strong characters with a great story arch. She is a true heroine and protagonist. Not to forget Qiu Congxue and Shu Yuanyuan who are both great characters, especially with Shu Yuanyuan being so much more than just a temptress. 

The love story between the main characters is well done with quite a lot of subtlety. It was fun to read when you understood Wenren È better than he understood himself. And Yin Hanjiang is a gripping character with his many twists and obsessions. They are well portrayed. 

All in all, a really easy read and has like zero stakes and just a lot of good fun.
