I have completed mtl it. It was such a great and enjoyable. I really love MC. Great read, likable and strong female MC. I really enjoying reading it, each arcs are cool, and interesting which can immerse you. MC is strong, mature, cool and smart. She is very professional tasker. If you like Counterattack and face slapping, you will like this. I like the way some arcs have CP and some arc don't have CP. Every arcs get better more you read it, more you will like this novel. The... more>> stories are not focus on romance, She finds a lover in some arcs, in others arcs, she stays single.

The MC is smart, mature, and strong but also gradually becomes even more OP as she continues to learn, and cultivate in different world. She experiences more things in her journey. <<less

First of all, I just want to tell whoever reads my review, that my intention of leaving this review is not meant to discourage you to read the novel. I merely just want to express my feelings after reading the novel. You can try to read the novel first and see whether you're gonna like it or not. It's just that this novel is not cup of my tea so I stop reading around chapter 200

Spoiler

It was a major turn-off after reading the ending of the 1st world. I get it, I understand the MC has no fixed male lead in every world, but I just can't just stand how she treated the male lead in the first world.

Since she has no love for him, why marry him? Just because she was moved by how he persisted in pursuing her for fifteen years and did not give up on her? It's not even romantic at all and it feels like a rich woman who gives alms to a beggar. And what's even the saddest part of the story is that the 1st male lead was already satisfied and happy to receive a scrap of time from her (yeah, literally scrap since the MC spend like 24/7 day on her work).

Now, now, although I'm sad to see him like a beggar begging for alms but doesn't mean I can't see that he also has his own fault. The moment she rejects him many times, he should have snapped back to his senses and learned to let go.


There are so many fishes in the sea and I do not believe that he can't find Ms. Right for him.
And yes, I do agree with some people here who said that this story is better off without having a romance.

starts out just OK but gets better as it goes along. I found the first arc a little boring at times and even wished it was shorter. The arc after was better. As for the MC, I don't mind the op MC but I would have preferred the story without the romance aspect, which wasn't needed and just added more chapters to each arc.

I thought the arcs were super long but it turned out that the translator just split each chapter a few times so in the first arc 26... more>> chapters turned into 79.
Spoiler

when I finished the translated chapters I thought I was almost done but it turns out 353 translated chapters was actually only 110 or so on the actual site and there was still tons more to read. I don't like it when the chapters don't match up like that but that's just my personal issue, I didn't let it effect my rating for the story itself.

Shallow read to pass the time. MC is straightforward person who treats her family and friends/followers well. She is OP in everything she does, learning things faster than others, doing things better than others. Nothing is a challenge for her, which makes the story a bit boring.

I do like how she is clear cut with the enemies of the original hosts, wanting nothing to do with them. Not hell-bent on revenge, but she does avenge her grudges. All enemies seem quite braindead, though.

The romances she does have feel lackluster since... more>> she has no real interest in her romantic pursuers. The MLs seem more like followers than real partners. I feel that having no romance would have suited MC better. <<less

Romance is lame. It's not very romantic, which is fine. I can do without romance.

But if there is no romance then there must be something else that will attract and entertain.

MC's character was boring.

The plot was boring. There was really no challenges or character growth that keeps you invested in the story.

ps. the ML is not the same throughout the arcs and apparently not all arcs have a ML and the MC stays single

[collapse]

arc 1

i actually really liked the first arc, it was kinda cliche and all but for me the best part would be how she teased the ML and how bold she was. For me that was what made the whole story very enjoyable.

arc 2

this one was 50-50 I didn't especially enjoy it and I wasn't all that taken with her and the romance between the MC and this ML. Honestly it lacked the fierce passion from the first arc and honestly the way she treated the ML wasn't all that alright with me...i mean it was a bit difficult to swallow but overall the story itself was very basic.

im currently staring arc 3 but honestly I might just skip thru chapters and find out the ending. Honestly so far there is nothing fresh nor interesting going on and at this point I might just skip a lot of the novel and check out the endings of each arc.

*i think this is an okay novel but honestly for someone like me who has probably read 50+ of similar books there is absolutely nothing new nor fresh or even makes you want to continue reading.... idk if ill end up finishing or dropping this but I do recommend for everyone to give this a chance. <<less

I’ve read through 4 story worlds and I can say while this story isn’t terrible it’s definitely not good. It’s your usual face slapping QT novel, except there’s 2 massive problems that I really can’t get over. First off in spite of the MC proclaiming herself a “strong independent women” she’s not. She has a Mary Sue aura and all of her problems seem to either solve themselves or a ML jumps out to solve them for her. The Villains seem to repeatedly trip over their own feet without the... more>> MC having to actually do anything. The second and larger problem is that the MC is just kind of a terrible person, but everyone acts like she isn’t. Given her background as a demonic cultivator, I’d expect her to be callus and cruel, but she’s not. She’s weirdly rule obsessed and never breaks the law or resorts to violence unless absolutely necessary. She doesn’t scheme or anything either. However she’s a self obsessed narcissist, and treats everyone around her like tools, particularly the ML she’s completely insincere towards. So after she strings along the ML for a while and treats him like a disposable boy toy the autor goes on a rant about how you only have to care about yourself and that makes you a “strong independent women”. Not solving your own problems, but just not giving any sincerity back to the ML who solved all the problems. And all the characters treat this like it’s a good thing and and she’s such a great person that it completely obliterates my sense of disbelief. I want to like this, I really do, but I just can’t. <<less

It's passable. Honestly, this novel isn't that much and what surprised me is how I easily forgot the stories after reading, like I know I've read it, but I had to look through to remind myself what the hell it was about before writing the review. To me that says a lot.

To be precise is to say that there is nothing so critical about stories/plots, the thing is they're nothing new in genral. And it doesn't matter who was the first to write such plots. The situations and plots described... more>> in arcs since long lost their novelty and became routines (some of them are a bit braindead let's admit) , thus the only thing that differ a random writer and one who can really amaze you lies, in my opinion, either in writing style or unusual twists and turns.

First few chapters kind of set the goal to what will happen in the arc itself. If she wants to learn business, she will end up a business giant. If she wants to be a top artist, she will become one. Meaning, there will be no sudden turn of events you don't expect and everything is very routine. Secondly, I can't say the writing style is exciting, sometimes I find it rather bland. Maybe because of a lot of random stuff, or too much time spent on one thing.

Few words about FL. I'm not a fan of how she was portrayed. She's supposed to be strong, reliable and a master of face-slaps, but sometimes her counterattack feels like mulling over the confrontation and it becomes overbearing with viciousness. At least I see it at times like this. She always repeats the phrase - if someone treats me well, I treat them well and on the contrary, if someone treats her badly, she will pay back - but her paying back goes on and on and it becomes unbalanced at times. Some characters in the arcs do deserve a payback and I prefered the times when she just gave a push and the rest took its' turn because the people themselves were not good and it's more like karma than being persecuted by her. I don't mind strong women or omnipotent characters, on the opposite I prefer my characters to be strong and independent, instead of being silly white cuties or dumb bunnies that need protection, these characters can be fun in their own way. But the problem is that you get tired how every arc everything moves in her direction as if she predicted how people will react and what they will do, of course she has her mirror to follow and help, but characters' reaction to her actions always coincides to what she expects them to do. She goes to the top, becomes a person who is looked up to, but she still has some condesending feeling about her attitude towards her position. You can wrap it u as her being intelligent and that she chooses one thing every world, but still something doesn't sit right with me. Not to mention the big things, sometimes even small things are interpreted as something out of proportion, which makes her "interesting". You can look it up how many times, especially male companions don't regard her as vicious or never letting go, even if they find she's playing in her own act and shceme, they will feel she's "interesting" or even "cute". Watch that shi, I bet you.

Relationships. We do it either my way or no other way. This novel has no CP, meaning no official ML that would follow behind FL in every world. Chu Xiang is not against relationships and from time to time she has a male companion in the arc. The only thing she refuses is to have children, because they're flesh and bond and leaving them is too sad. I mean, she will leave anyway, but all her partners have to accept that they might never become fathers, so yeah. Well, at least she's not a s*umbag like other FLs I've read about where they have several relationships in a single arc and then break-up, treating old loves as shi. But still Chu Xiang is mainly in this uneven relationsip with men and I kind of feel sorry for those men too, because they basically become her pendants and licking dogs, so they move in the direction she dictates more than hand-in-hand with her. Don't know, but maybe it's better to be in a rigid NO relationship plot instead then.

And that's it. You see, as a result I have nothing remarkable to say, I haven't met something in it that would hook me up and make me say - I liked this or that part of the novel. But I have no such thing (;>.>) <<less

Junk food that is unhealthy, has tons of plot holes and pointless to read. FL has good character, but she's a Mary Sue because the author wanted FL to be as that. About the FL ML's in each arc. I'll say it to the point, they always and slowly turn a dog/servant for the FL. Would've been better without them, to be honest. The only time it's decent, it's in ancient era, which are the shortened arcs. The netizens and the fans in the modern entertainment era in this novel... more>> or any other novel of this type shows how much bad this trend has become. By them having so much power over a person's reputation, in my opinion slightly derived from the ancient era. Therefore, they almost always get rid of the consequences they write on a keyboard, resulting in verbal ab*se 99% of the time. At least I learned a lesson, to not read these type of novels anymore with the entertainment circle, which relies on netizen's comments over everything. Don't recommend, even for wasting time. Goodnight. <<less

I was excited to read this one, but after reading the 1st arc, it didn't appeal to me that much, the villain characters were making too much drama for my liking, and I believe that FL didn't deserve the ML honestly. It was okay to read for time pass but not too good to continue

It's alright. I just felt like the author didn't weave the background of the FL naturally. FL was basically from a wuxia world and she transmigrated into the modern world. It's basically another way to adopt a quick transmigration storyline, but instead of a system that dictates her tasks, she's just jumping in different worlds for the fun of it, I guess. She adapts way too fast especially with how she built her relationship with her parents and how she acted with them. Also, she's too forward with how she... more>> acts. It gets the job done, but it makes the story very lackluster.

I don't know, I just feel like there are too many glaring loopholes that make the story unenjoyable. It doesn't help that the antagonists don't have anything to offer... It's a meh. FL isn't really cunning or special. She's just written out as exceptional at what she does, but she doesn't really stand out with how she handles situations. <<less

I completely fell in love with this novel.

Each arc was well written, different, and enjoyable.

The MC is not s*upid or mary sue. Instead, she cool, cold, clear-headed, strong, and independent. It's refreshing to read about an MC that does not only exist for love.

The antagonists in each world aren't overly dumb for no reason too. What I enjoy the most is how the MC doesn't drag around her revenge.

Overall, it's a clean, light, and entertaining read.

Managed to finish the second world somehow.😮‍💨

I like OP mc's but they have to have attractive personalities. The MC in this story at the beginning of the first arc seems quite good but as the arc progressed things just become a bit too overwhelming somehow. The mc's behavior is a little unacceptable with how she only do things for fun like just moving on her whims I mean I really pity the ML in arc 1 specially in arc 2 where the ML there couldn't even have a true secure... more>> relationship to the point that the ml's of each arc feels like if they don't entertain the MC and keep impressing her that she'll leave them in a heartbeat.

Haha😅 I tried to really read the story but I can't halfway through the 2nd arc and I was already skipping chapters. The first arc's plot is still acceptable it's a business arc after all and it's usually the strong eats the weak kind of trope when you read business word plots, a little similar with the cultivation world the MC came from, but the 2nd arc is the entertainment world you can't just use the strong and eat the weak kind of trope there right? I mean as an entertainer you have to please the viewers but the MC just does whatever she wants and somehow be ok??? Err not good with talking but we'll it's all complaint against the MC she's too annoying even for an OP character..... <<less

It got to the point where I was only interested in what would happen to the MC’s “best friend” after the MC’s ex broke it off.

The Faceslapping was not satisfying after a while. The MC had just decided to ruin her Ex’s family business and I think that would be a bit too much. There are a lot of people that make up a corporation so to ruin it and all those lives just because a kid asked if you moved on is a bit much. I get he’s s*um but if she does that I’ll end up feeling sorry for him like, brother eww lol

Also the fact that she’s this cultivator who almost reached a higher realm says that’s she’s old as heck and it just seems beneath her to deal with a kid in that manner. The body she took over in the first arc in just 20 years old but the MC is probably in her 1000s, the ex is just 20. The punishment is too excessive.

in QWFOD the MC was OP but each arc was still interesting so it CAN be done. This story is just not it 🤷‍♀️ <<less

I just completed the 4th arcs and will wait until the story is completely translated to continue.

This is the recap of the first 4 arcs for those who are hesitating to read this novel.

Premise - The MC is a demonic cultivator who failed to ascend and decided to enjoy life in different worlds instead. She would make contracts with souls that just passed away in order to use their body while fulfilling their last wishes. So there is no system or plot knowledge to help her, but she's so OP... more>> just because she's a cultivator who could manipulate spiritual energy.

Main Character - The MC can be a bit too much, too extra, for many's liking. She is the epitome of the strong independent female character. And she's also wayyy too OP. Her spiritual energy was used like magic that can help her do just about anything. It's sometimes too much of a cheat that I don't feel the MC "earned" anything herself. She's also pretty apathetic to the people and the world around here that it can come off as calculative (and in many cases, it is calculative on her part.)

Love Line - There are a lot of criticisms towards the MC's attitude in love but I stand by her 100%. She's very clear cut that she doesn't need a romantic partner and doesn't mind staying single in any worlds. And she's also very transparent on what she wants for a partner, but she never forces or even coerces anyone to follow her will. So I don't see a problem that she laid her cards on the table and let all the MLs know what they're getting themselves into. In fact, she often encourages those MLs to find a more suitable partner as she cannot be what they hope for. I like her attitude a lot. I think it's very similar to the ideology of a lot of modern women who prefer to stay single rather than lowering their standards. It's quite a refreshing take.

Now, moving on to the plots...

There are some spoilers here, so read at your own risk.

Spoiler

World 1 - FL is an heiress whose fiance cheated on her with her own best friend. It's a classic revenge story where the FL break things off with s*umbag fiance and best friend and find new blessings in life. I particularly love the FL's parents in this arc. They are lovely couple.

It's a very good start for the first arc though I find the later half to be a bit lengthy. It lasts to around 70 chapters but it could have cut down to 40ish to make the story more refined. (The chapters were split in translation so I'm not sure how many chapters there are originally.)

World 2 - FL is a former idol who left her career to marry a s*umbag millionaire; turn out the guy just treated her as a substitute since she looked a lot like his first love. When his first love came back, he immediately divorced her and even tried to block her from working in the entertainment industry. But of course, the FL is so OP she won back everything and did everything right so much so that she's just a marry sue. It became really cringey really fast.

This arc is the one I HATE and even considered dropping since it just never ends. Just like any other showbiz novel, we see a lot of netizen comments but it just go on and on and on. The story would progress very slowly since the author tend to focus on these comments rather than the plot itself. It's like the FL did one small thing, followed by hater comments, followed by fan comments, followed by some actions taken by some parties, then the FL did another thing -- it kept going in circles like that at one point I just skimmed read about 10 chapters in 10 minutes.

It went on for over 100 chapters and it didn't feel satisfying to read. I wished it would have ended way sooner.

World 3 - It's ancient world. FL is an abandoned imperial concubine who was betrayed by her own maid and casted aside to die. The emperor was an inept who only knew to have fun so there was already a rebellion ongoing. FL somehow saved a prince - uncle of emperor - and the two were wedded by the emperor as a kind of humiliation towards the prince. But they become such a power couple that in the end, take over the throne.

I love the FL's staying true to her values in this arc. She wanted to live free and travel around the world, which she wouldn't be able to do as an empress. So she made it clear to the prince uncle that she would help him seize the throne but wouldn't stay with him. I like their back and forth so much, it perfectly displayed the opposing views of people from opposite s*x and different era. I love the ending of this arc. The prince was an exemplary ML even though they didn't end up happily ever after.

World 4 - FL is an online novel writer who was falsely accused of plagiarizing a famous author. She also had a leeching family who favors son over daughter but still expects the daughter to raise the son. On top of that, she had a health issue that resulted in her being hospitalized. The FL had to solve one problem at a time with the assistance of two male authors who happened to be her neighbors.

Compared to the previous worlds, this arc is much more mature. It also discussed a lot of interesting social issues such as plagiarism, feminism, cyber-bullying and doxxing, different family dynamics, sibling parents, etc. We also see some of the very first platonic male-female interactions, though it didn't last long xD. Since there are 2 guys, at first I thought ML would be the strong and silent one per the usual trope, but it ended up being the golden retriever guy who is chatty and clingy - you know, the usual hype guy. It's a very refreshing take that I didn't see coming but loving it a lot. I think he fits her type perfectly since she didn't want to bend to the wills of others but he's such a puppy who will follow his owner anywhere. I also like it that both guys developed feelings for her when she was not conventionally attractive - plus-sized, short hair, and overall unhealthy.

My only criticism for this arc is that it feels very much a self-insert of the author. There were still cringey parts that I hope the author could tone down for future chapters.

[collapse]

TL;DR

    • 1st world was a decent start
    • 2nd was terrible, badly written, skip if you want
    • 3rd was a very nice comeback from the author
    • 4th was great, very mature, worth all the bs I had to put up for previous worlds
That's all for the first 4 arcs. I'll make another review when I finish reading everything. <<less

Hah... I pull all nighter to finish 1st arc, only to see how workaholic the MC is...

It's not that bad, just not to my taste. Many crucial parts were only described into some paragraphs such as the revenge part and the relationship building between MC and ML. Moreover, they really didn't overcome any struggles. They were just tasteless. I decided not to read more, so I don't know whether there is any development in these areas. Just hope the author will take this into consideration kindly 🙂

It’s alright some arcs were interesting but wrapped up too quickly some other arcs were a bit boring and I skipped a few arcs as well. I agree with a lot of the reviewers, there is basic to no romance in these arcs and it may have been better to go without. The FL experienced growth in skills but no real growth in character or it’s too subtle. She is badass at the apex of the world with the mirror of the universe and the ability to cultivate in almost... more>> every work as a cheat. It’s mainly a face slapping novel.

The story is great. I read some bad review. At first I hesitated to read it. But I give it a try n didn't regret it. This story is great. Don't just believe some bad review or good review. Just go read a few chapter for yourself to saw if it's really bad or good. For me...I think this story is too short. Wish it will be more longer.

I like the male is not the same person in each world. And sometimes the FL even choose to stay single in... more>> some worlds n dedicated her life to study new things. Even though the male is different, but she will stay faithful to this male. No reverse harem even though I kinda want to see it and hope this gonna happen at animal worlds where 1 woman can have mutiple males. Too bad FL didn't go to this world at all.

This FL know how to have fun. Treat people who nice to her more nicely. But she can also be really vengeful if u try to harm her😂😂

Finish with mtl version. I plan to reread it again on the translation version. Becoz this is good story. <<less
