especially since it wasn't the same answer for MC and ML at the start and it was also the same at the end, but they exchanged their answers lol

it would have been really bittersweet if it wasn't a happy ending and if they both didn't keep their memories in some ways... but I guess the author was like, alright no more (spiritual) torture for you, you can put both be happy now lol

basically, ML become the bearer of the reincarnation book so he is effectively immortal (no memory trouble lol) but he still has trouble with his mortal body so he uses a really f*cking painful way to keep it until MC makes him fuse with the chain piercing his skin and tada! new cool body that doesn't keep bleeding!!

as for MC, he dies bim badaboum and once ML sacrifices himself, since his sacrifice equals 6 sacrifices (bc he's a son of heaven) he has control of the book of reincarnation and the first name he writes on it is mc's~~~ so MC grows up again but still feeling like a lot of memories are missing until he meets ml, the birds dance and give him the bell containing all his memories so no memory dilemma anymore :F

btw, it may bc I read the last chapters real fast but I remember bi xie saying the first name on the reincarnation book will determine its future but this part is really fuzzy and I don't even if mc/ML knows about it... if anyone can tell me, it would be great bc it's now nearly 6am and I have to sleep hahaha...

I feel like it especially starting with the whole a dong's situation which made him realize his helplessness and how weak he was. he still acted arrogant in front of people afterwards but it wasn't the same - and I could really feel it when they got out of the tomb in the secret realm and he f*cking died after being pierced by 10 thousand swords to get the mirror to go back in time (which is honestly a huge thing for him who's so afraid of pain, I really felt the struggle man) and he bawled in ml's arms about how in pain he was but when he saw other people arriving je was like 'nope, didn't hurt at all!' but that was too late lmao

and even luo xinyu and xiao lian sees how his gaze has changed between their meeting (he was still full of hope) to the last one before the final battle (he knew he was going to die)

(still violent bc of how hysterical MC was since he literally felt the intense killing intent ml's dao heart had towards him when he just tried to feel his pain bc he thought the only problem ML had was his soul being separated with his body LOL

i'd honestly be traumatised too after feeling all that killing intent, ESPECIALLY since his whole body was already sore bc it was just after their first time! like!!!! author!!!!!! you know just how to hit me in the feels QAQ

from the luo sisters struggling with different diseases to the ban xia brothers, members of the clan who got f*cking exterminated and luck stolen with no possibility of reincarnation but they managed to break through it - even if banxia xi had to give up his soul for that and f*ck, he was so young... and I can't even fault the other characters for not trying to stop him bc what he lived through was so horrible he inadvertently caused a catastrophe and couldn't live with himself so really, death meant relief for him

and let's not forget tang xiaoxia who ended up killing her own clan against her will, and it all started bc of a small crush and a misunderstanding who f*cking snowball into some real dog blood sh*t but instead of a happy ending, they just got the disparition of a clan. at least thanks to banxia yin, she stayed 'alive' long enough to get a resolution, even if it wasn't a happy one :c

well he made some comments but it was just questions about if ML really had never had feelings for someone else and if he thought the original ML was attractive but the questions just got thrown back to him lol

HOW this novel trivializes r*pe, turning an attempted assault on a man into a comedic moment. The kidnapping, drugging, and other serious issues are completely glossed over. I tried to overlook it, but the author continuously portrays the victim as unreasonable for being upset, even having the MC try to rationalize it as "we're both men." It's disturbing. To make it worse, the victim proposes becoming the MC's dao partner after MC helps him (even though the victim had to protect him in the first place), and is immediately rejected. The MC then brushes it off as a joke. The victim, in turn, wonders why he even made the proposition when there were other ways to repay the MC. It's frustrating to see the victim almost fall for the MC without reason.

• I hated how the ML was constantly referred to as "little blind" and made to feel like a waste because of his disability. It really put me off.
• The author tried way too hard to make the novel feel mysterious but failed miserably.
• And I can't emphasize enough how brain-dead the dialogue was. The more I think about it, the more I feel like even giving this 1 star is too generous.
• For about 10-15 chapters, I read this from a scanlation group that used AI (shame on you, especially with a donation link right under each chapter), and I could barely understand what's happening at times. Switching to a different group helped a little, but the author's terrible, childish writing couldn't be saved, even by a competent translator & editor. I still felt lost and confused throughout.

, especially with how he trusting he is of ML (to the point that he ignores all the redflags that are right in front of his eyes, or rather he purposely ignores it, which ironically is why he survives with ML. Because of his earnestness with the people around him), or how he sometimes can't stop his mouth from running, even in front of people that are stronger than him (which the people around him finds amusing, since he speaks his mind without hesitation though he wimps out)

like the one between the bandit general and king

He doesn't protest against Chu Wenfeng crushing the Golden Core of the guy who insulted and wanted to kill Chu Guiyi in the Secret Realm because MC is aware this is the world he lives in now. Much later on, he even straight up kills the Xiaoyao disciple who dealt a fatal blow to the ML.

He's pretty spoiled and dependent on his "parents", his mentality remaining toddler-like, which is fine because he is a toddler, but he never develops even after an old wolf of the same species he tried hard to get mentor him goes out to die with his master nor does he develop after the MC leaves him behind in order to protect him at one point. And in the epilogue, we see that his spoiled toddler-like personality remained even when he becomes a teen and when he's a hundred years old. It's grating.

he killed the MC the first timeline and that he might've killed someone else's "Xie Shuci" with his indiscriminate killing, and that actually made him consider the weight of life for the first time.

the Yin that got unfairly executed for a crime he didn't commit. The conversation between the MC and his senior brothers implied there was more to it, but it never got expounded, revealed, or resolved even in the extras.
