4.0

4.0. Read after watching the show The Untamed. A good time! I respect the choices the show made in changing from the novels, but I’m enjoying the novels as well! Certainly easier to keep track of things when I can read them though! 

Plot summary for my purposes:
This volume tracks WWX dying, waking up in Mo Xuanyu’s body, the Mo Manor stuff, Mt. Dafan stuff, going to Cloud Recesses and WWX being a goof, one quick flashback to WWX and LWJ meeting for the first time and general Cloud Recesses era WWX content, subduing the arm, going to the Nie Burial Tomb and finding Jin Ling in a wall, getting the leggies, going to Yueyang, drunk LWJ content, finding the torso at the Chang clan graveyard, then leaving for coffin town.
