Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

In a Mary-Sue novel, the readers all liked the Devil Venerable, the second male lead who devoted himself whole-heartedly to the female lead. However the female lead only loved the male lead who ab*sed her physically and mentally.

Readers: Why doesn’t the female lead like the Devil Venerable?!

Devil Venerable: This Venerable also wants to know. But what I really want to know is why I even like the female lead at all.

In order to understand why the female lead wasn’t attracted to him, the self-conscious Devil Venerable brutally interrogated the entire cast of characters from the novel.

Background characters: I have so many things I want to say but I don’t dare to say it to his face!

–

After obtaining the book, the Devil Venerable discovered that the book described the world he lived in. This book said that after he sacrificed himself for the female lead, the fourth male lead, his silent and loyal subordinate Yin Hanjiang, blackened and attempted to kill her as a sacrificial offering for his lord.

Devil Venerable Wenren È: Yin Hanjiang, this Venerable wants to know why you wanted to kill the female lead.

Yin Hanjiang was silent.

Wenren È: If you refuse to speak, this Venerable will cut out your tongue and have it with alcohol!

Yin Hanjiang: …

Wenren È: What the hell are you blushing for?!

This Novel is beyond words, I honestly learn a lot from this Novel, its like a slice of life story with a bit additions of Xianxia genre, I learn a lot from Wen Ren E / Wen RenHe. His portrayal here Chef Kiss cause basically they are like people in our society persecution them a DEVIL, even though They are not really doing Evil stuffs, but meh u know how society treat others that are different from common folks, they get alienate and force to hide.

Overall this Novel is not... more>> your type if you want heavy s*x stuff, this novel only shows light BL only which is sweet in their own way and did not make you wanna vomit due to the heavy theme.

Read This Novel, enjoy the thrill and adventure of Wenren E try to escape from his fate.

Also I need more fanart of them aaaaaaaa <<less

Phenomenal world building, unique plot, amazing characters, and how the book discussed what being human and the balance of good and bad coexisting in harmony is amazing. The romance is so good, I love the story so much.

I just wanted to say it's a perfect story for me.

My reading was fluid, the characters were charismatic and the main couple gradually discovered their feelings until they got together.

Well I don't have much to add it was a great read to pass the time.

A very light read, with no exact plot or advancement, to the point that it seems short even having 80 chapters in total.

This novel is mainly concentrated on characters, their emotions and relationship.

A romance side is nonexistent. (Well, they do speak about it and express their feelings, but it was done in the last 10 chapters or so q.q)

This book is a gem. This book has very intriguing plot. Out of all the bl novel I read, this one has the most complete world structure. With other books, I used to skip paragraphs, but this book I have read word by word, not wanting to miss anything. All the characters in this book are 3D. We can understand their thought process. I will update this once I complete it.

really funny characters, satisfying ending and character development, overall great. The mc's love for ML is really beautiful when he eventually figures it out. I can't stress enough how enjoyable the characters are, they're all so funny and have their own quirks. The dynamics are perfect, and it just has a bunch of dynamics that you didn't know you needed. Ml's character development has to be one of my favorites of all time. Such a fun read

Good and quick read! Well, quick for me, at least haha

DVAWK has appeared in the circles I dabble in a couple of times, but I hadn't thought to get into when it did. What finally got me to read it, is that I wanted to read a BL with a seme protagonist lol

I enjoyed the pacing of this story. Even though there are some aspects I wish were expanded on and had more emphasis, I'm satisfied with what's offered. I especially like how the couple's relationship developed :)

Overall, I... more>> wouldn't say it's a mind-blowing or especially amazing story. But it's good and satisfying, and I that's what matters <<less

Definitely this novel will be going into my rec list! I love how it twisted all the usual danmei tropes and how there's literally no plot hole or unresolved plot line you could see. I don't know how the author could guess my live reactions through the meta reviews in-universe sjdkks

I have to take off one star though for the pacing, I feel like this novel would be even better (it's already good actually as it is) if the author allowed us some breathing time between major plot points. I... more>> felt like I've been rushed to enjoy a 6 six course meal within 15mins instead of being allowed to savor it for an hour or two. <<less

This novel is soooo well thought out and written. There are just so many praiseworthy things about DVAWtK that putting them to words is difficult. All I can say is that this is definitely a must-read danmei, truly one of a kind. It's not so short that it feels rushed but also not drawn out to the point where you'd feel bored.

The female characters are awesome. Every single one of them have their own goals and motivations, making them very compelling characters. They also don't follow typical archetypes found in... more>> danmei so you'll surely find their actions very refreshing. I sure did. Their POVs are also very insightful to read and, in my opinion, are one of the most enjoyable part of the novel. I'm serious when I say I would die for a spin-off based on one of them.

The humor is top-notch. Personally, I find it quite hard to understand a lot of the jokes in danmei due to the language barrier. Like, I would understand why it's funny after reading the tl notes but I wouldn't laugh iykwim cause the timing just wouldn't hit. I feel like the humor in DVAWtK is more situational and relies a lot on reoccurring gags (it feels kinda sitcom-ey), cause of this, the jokes definitely land. This novel is hilarious yet it balances its serious moments with comedic ones very well.

The character development is impeccable. Every character feels like they had the opportunity to grow as people and the process that they go through to make that realization isn't instantaneous. Instead, there's a slow buildup where the author would explain to the reader the character's thought process and what impact that change brought upon them afterwards.

To conclude, DVAWtK is an incredibly easy and enjoyable read that'll def leave you with some deep thoughts afterward. The characters and writing are top-tier and this novel is def super underrated. Read this for CEO of yearning YHJ, man-hating lesbians and lots of oil lamp threats (iykyk). <<less

Very interesting read that leaves you with a refreshing feeling because the antagonists get what they deserve while the main characters grow for the better. It was great how interconnected each character's fate was to each other and how it was important for all of them to have a role in changing the story. Each main cast supported the other so it wasn't only the MC or ML doing everything.

I enjoyed the banter between the characters it was quite cute. I also enjoyed how the MC and ML had to... more>> slowly get to know each other since they hadn't truly seen past each other facades. I wish we had a bit more of this but it was a great read nonetheless. <<less

A villain x subordinate/bodyguard romance danmei.

The MC despite being actually called the devil is more like... neutral evil. He is self-serving for sure, but he isn't petty or cruel just for the sake of it.

The ML Yin Hanjiang is the yandere 'shou' but honestly the gong/shou dynamic is very interchangeable between the two. The ML is very loyal and devoted to the MC in almost lethal amounts. Seriously, he would do anything for the MC, sometimes against his wishes too.

The poor FL is honestly too dumb to be dislikeable... she's... more>> just pitiful, and goes through the ringer to get that well deserved character development lol. I don't remember much of the other characters because it's been a while since I read this novel last, but I still wanted to leave a review for my own reminder. I might reread this novel someday and add-on to my review, but yeah for now I only recall that the MC also has other awesome subordinates, and that the original ML (for the FL) is truly a s*umbag, dirt on the bottom of my shoes kind of character. <<less

The most aroace mains I've read about, god but I love Wenren E oblivious ass; very fun in general with all the characters and the other world book starting plot point, an explanation of the cultivation system that I will always remember bc damn that's perfectly dark, and good damn good female charas + plus nails its ending.

Kinda just some fun novel, not a masterpiece but it does what it wants to do really well, and the relationship between Yin Hanjiang and Wenren E was very believable and heartfelt. Plus... more>> a sect full of queer "villains" including our mains, come on xD

  1. I've been reading shounen ai, yaoi and danmei for so long that I no longer have any story to read. So I searched for Danmei and I stumbled upon this story. Reading the synopsis made me some how hooked to the story so I tried giving it a try. After reading it all I can say was IT IS WORTH IT. If you need a sign then this is it. READ THIS.
The world building is well planned out, the characters are not braindead, they definitely have personality which makes them... more>> unique and well worthy to read.

Give the story a try before ignoring it because of the reviews. You'll only know it's worth it if you've read it. <<less

The MC isn’t there to dilly dally at all, he’s straight to the point and doesn’t have any business beating around the bushes. Even though the world views the MC as this overbearing monstrosity, you’ll look to the left and see the ML being rapid. The author is great at making this generally fast paced and interesting, and their relationship of master-servant to equal beings is done well.

This story is amazing!!! It flows very nicely, everything is dealt with fast and perfectly, we have awesome female characters and side characters who are all fleshed out. And the ML (Yin) character development is stunning, how he changes and we get to know more about his personality as the story progresses. His fighting scenes were my favorite as well.

The MC is clever, beautiful and powerful, I loved being inside his head for this journay. 10/10.

I just finished the main story, and haven't started the extras, but my goodness this was an incredible story! The world building was fantastic, the main characters, and side characters were all very well developed and there were so many twists! I seriously couldn't put this story down. There's action, there's comedy, there's even some horror. I'm also very sad that it's now over, but I will definitely reread it in the future.

Keep in mind that this novel is quite a slow burn, but gosh is it worth the wait!... more>> There's just so much depth in this novel, and the translation was very well written. I love the main concept of this novel as well, instead of a character transmigrating into a new world, a book falls into the world and the characters are the ones within the book. I haven't read anything like this, and I've read a lot of danmei, and upon completion, I'd say this is one in my top 10 favourites, if not in my top 5. <<less

Great cast of characters, wholesome relationships, interesting cultivation setting. I would say the main antagonist is a bit whatever but he's certainly dislikeable enough! Overall super satisfying read!

This novel was a fun read. I really enjoyed it. The pacing is not too slow or too fast. I thought it would be a your average danmei but it's not! The characters are all well-written. The world building is *chef's kiss* Even someone like me was able to keep up with the story because everything was explained well! I didn't think I'd like it but I managed to finish it in the span of 3 days (rookie numbers I know, but as a lazy reader, 3 days is very... more>> quick for me!) Anyways, it's a 5 star for me! <<less

Honestly loved the relationship progress Between the main couple and also how they cared for only each other but were very honest and kept the debt of gratitude and learned from each other to grow as people so the character development was very well done. Finished this in two days lol.
