5.0

This book was exactly what I wanted the wrap up on the series to be. The final battle with the big bad was excellent (and kind of what I expected and didn't get from the last volume).
I also really enjoyed the surprise of Hua Cheng breaking Xie Lian's shackles by kissing him and overloading him with spiritual energy. I was so upset right along with Xie Lian that Hua Cheng temporarily died.
The extras were exactly what I wanted as well: frequent confirmation that they have good sex and that they are living happily and domestically post canon. The Cave of Ten Thousand Gods extra was definitely my favorite  followed closely by the Xie Lian amnesia extra. Overall, a delight! So glad I finally finished this excellent series, and it is definitely the MXTX series I am going to recommend the most for others wanting to get into danmei (and start with a well known/big fandom series. Ao3 has So Much good content for the MXTX books).
