MUST READ!!! I MTL-ed this one and boy let me tell you it's worth it. MC and ML are hilarious and cute together, the writing... more>> is refreshing and youthful even though there are heavy topics mentioned. MC's doting family is so cute~ MC is pretty shameless and dense whilst ML can function like a normal human being lol but they're both true to themselves which is just muah chef's kiss. also, POWER COUPLE!!! they're both hardworking and very good at fighting— will not hesitate to beat up a gang to protect each other! edit: im crying why did they change the cover  <<less

WAHOOO this one is so good!!!! I love seeing the main CP's dynamics. MC is a powerful, scheming fox of an elder whilst ML is...... more>> pretty cute ngl. ML is also reborn so he's black-bellied from the start. He loves few people but those he do love are cherished very much. Mysteries are solved quickly (yay!) and the plot is good. there are some plot twists that makes me roll around on the ground— they're so well executed!  <<less

MC is a scheming fox!! the ML is a really really domineering emperor whilst MC is a favoured servant so expect HUGE power imbalance. MC... more>> was careful to gain the emperor's favour and his plans are satisfyingly executed. It started off amazing but the later chapters are pretty baffling tbh it's like MC lost his wit and started mirroring the emperor— short tempered, haughty and possessive. NOT all that bad honestly but still pretty OOC and gross. with the HUGE power imbalance, it predictably gets r*pey sometimes. it's clear that they love each other but in late game, both of them want to swallow each other whole... also, MC was supposedly an art student but he was whipping out modern machine blueprints left and right wtf  <<less

This novel is a rollercoaster fr. MC keeps pulling a Jesus and rising from the dead every other year, each time traumatizing ML without fail... more>> ( ；∀；) idk whether to laugh or cry. The first two (three?) books are plot heavy and made me cry but on the later volumes they **** so much... The latter half of this series made me pause a few times especially after the last transmigration and go what the f*ck why but whatever dude it's HE and cute  <<less

haven't finished this one yet. nothing too original but their relationship progression is very cute and the pacing is nice. It's just, there are telenovela... more>> level cliches but they're pretty cute so I'm giving it a pass eh  <<less

I MTL-ed this one and let me tell you it's LONG. lore heavy and has nice pacing if you like novels focused on MC's development/power... more>> crawl. initially pretty slow and mellow but it picks up later I promise lol. the romance is so slow burn that by the time it starts to bloom, i already forgot it was a danmei. also, time is relative and reality is a social construct. If you don't like extensive world building then it might seem draggy sometimes but shhhh haha. MC and ML are a power couple and they got married at the end <3  <<less

IT'S BEAUTIFUL. the writing in this is phenomenal. MC is pretty much ML's reason to live at this point and tbh me too he's so precious it hurts. ML's past ripped my heart out of my chest and put it through a blender. pain. pain everywhere. but healing time!! MC earnestly tries to help ML get back on his feet but progress is up to ML and I love that. my whole mood reading this is either "f*ck i feel bad for everyone this is so tragic" or "awooo song qingshi (MC) my beloved"... more>>

edit: I MTL-ED THIS AND DUDE HOLY f*ck!!!!!!! IT HAS MORE DEPTH THAN I THOUGHT AND THE PLOT. DUDE THE PLOT. AHHH IT'S SO GOOD I'M ?¿??? I CAN'T SAY ANYTHING BCS SPOILERS BUT BRO THEIR LOVE STORY IS SO— [incoherent sobbing]  <<less

haven't finished this one either but it's pretty good so far. MC is naive because of his young age and has a firm personality. He's no one special but still tries so hard, very refreshing~ ML is a scorned genius and socially inept it's pretty cute. I haven't seen him blackened yet though haha ... more>>

edit: I've read a few chapters more and uh... he's black-bellied, no doubt. he mol*sted MC in his sleep but it's kinda funny that everyone thought he's the virtuous one lol I'll stop a bit because... what (•‿•) <<less

haven't finished this one too~ MC is unhinged and funny like how can someone so socially inept be as confident and flirty as this mf LMAOOO. their early dynamic is pretty much:... more>>

ML: u wanna date? sus

MC: hand in marriage pls 

but on the other hand, it's not very cash money of MC to plaster ML's n00ds everywhere he like without ML's consent <<less

haven't finished!! but this one is so cuteeeee. medium!MC is terrified of ghosts and depends on ML's touch to drive them away LMAO so many... more>> embarrassing moments and misunderstandings. ML and MC's brains are not in the same wavelength but the one thing they have in common is their h**ny level heh <<less

/patiently waits for more chapters to get translated/ ... more>>

interesting premise!! this is the first time I've read something like this. MC is slowly but surely recovering and ML is right by his side. Their relationship makes me wanna roll around hhghhhh it's largely platonic as of yet and the romance is a slow burn, though their platonic relationship is already very deep~  <<less

hmm idk if i will I finish this tbh but I'm putting it on this list because the first 114 chapters are great. my favourite... more>> thing about this one is the world building!! also, main CP's dynamic is so cuteeeee. I'm personally not fond of the plot twist like bro why did you nerf the dark lord MC into a healing power holy mother like SIGH let my man kill people damn it. ML is doting to the max sometimes I feel sorry for him (since MC is pretty indifferent to him and is depressed as hell like, suicidal level) but not too much since he seems to be into that lol <<less

on going translation!! good writing~ romance is pretty slow since they started out as half brothers (which can seem pretty weird, yes, but MC isn't the OG brother so yeah) but their bond is strong~ I love seeing fight scenes because they complement each other so much ( ꈍᴗꈍ) the side characters are cute too and their stories are pretty memorable. some people are gonna say MC seems homophobic but you have to understand, that's literally the premise of this novel!! MC is hell-bent on making sure ML doesn't fall for the original fake white lotus protag but little did he know... hehe ... more>>

bonus points: surprisingly not r*pey and MC is pretty open to the idea of dating his brother though not openly as he cares about their reputation (because he loves and spoils ML so much haha) <<less

veeerrryyyy sweet HE!!! but first, I think this is the first time I read such a dog blooded book... ʕっ•ᴥ•ʔっ there are six arcs— all... more>> pretty cliche but good nonetheless— and bar the last one, they're all tragic. this looks like harem but don't worry~ it's actually 1v1~  MC is hardworking and so earnest he's borderline dense. go away beauties, he just wanted credits (´ε｀ ) no graphic s*x but fair warning though, each arc have some r*pey scenes ( yes ew but i scrolled past them. if you can't, just don't read it). I want to say more about ML but I'd rather not spoil anything~~ I think it's worth a read  <<less

on going translation!! really good~ the pacing is nice, plot heavy and slow burn, tender (and HEALTHY) romance which is hell yeah babey!! right up... more>> my alley!! there are hints of time and space shenanigans and i can't wait to see where it leads to. misunderstandings are used as plot devices but it's doesn't get frustrating. MC and ML are both fleshed out ƪ(˘⌣˘)ʃ They're both very talented and powerful, protective and caring towards each other. There's a vague feeling of a domestic and establised relationship/steady marriage and I l o v e it sm <333 I'm currently on c147 and drowning in angst. (I knew angst is inevitable since MC's cultivation limits his emotions ༼;´༎ຶ ۝ ༎ຶ༽) <<less

currently trying to MTL this mf but it's h a r d. anyways, i really like this one. unlike your usual QT novels, the MC... more>> here is willing to fall in love with the ML regardless of worlds and i think that's beautiful ( ；∀；) MC and ML's dynamic is so cute and fluffy eventhough every arc has a tragic ending that wets my eyes. MC tries so hard to complete his mission of being a misunderstood villain but ML never fail to foil his plans by exposing the truth, he even misunderstood MC's lies and spun the most tragic, selfless identity for MC from those lies. his deaths got so draggy that i wanted to kill him myself lololol i guess MC's white lotus halo is too strong eh ╮(╯▽╰)╭ <<less

ongoing translation, (it's pretty hard to MTL) but the cuteness of this book is already so unbelievable~ i thought there's gonna be more plot and... more>> struggles but nope. the main CP keeps throwing dog food and making me spit blood (ಥ‿ಥ) they're so cute and whipped for each other it's amazing~ MC used to be timid but after rebirth, he became bold and unafraid to get what he wants (which is mainly the ML wink wonk) whilst ML is confused by this since he's used to being feared by everyone but he still dotes on MC so much it's adorable. there's a few face slapping moments already, MC is quick to take action against those who bullied him in the past! go MC!!  <<less

(ongoing translation) crack. this is pure crack <(￣︶￣)> if you're looking for something plotty, something other than a gag novel, don't even bother to read... more>> this. the author took every cliche in your average domineering president x pathetic white lotus danmei and threw them in a crack pot~ i love the MC and ML's personality, they're so funny. ML is a gap moe tsundere, very cute. since MC is a gong that transmigrated into a beautiful shou's body, there will be many misunderstandings~ lost quite a few braincells reading about their antics but that's a price I'm willing to pay ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ <<less

(ongoing translation) DOG FOOD. DOG FOOD EVERYWHERE. fastburn, MC and ML are cute as hell and are straightforward with their feelings. the plot isn't much... more>> but it's really good if you want a somewhat mindless fluff/light read. i really like novels where the underdog MC shows off their skill and face slap everyone, with a side of~ romance~ and this novel fits the bill hehe. MC is really capable in many things whilst ML is a strong master martial artist! pretty scholarly gong x strong manly shou!!!  <<less

short and sweet. MC is a demon king who just want to retire after fulfilling the prophecy but the hero, ML keep trying to woo... more>> him with his cooking hehe. poor MC trained for 500 years but got corrupted by ML's dishes in like two weeks lmao. very different from my usual novels but it's a nice change of pace (*´ω｀) <<less

(ongoing translation) SO GOOD!!!!!!! MC really talked to ML a few times then went "oh hes just like me fr" and decided to take him as his direct disciple LMAO (there's defo history there with a tragic old flame + hints of reincarnation) the romance is slowburn (41 chapters in and they're still platonic) but still adorable and funny. MC is an OP sect leader with a cute and childish personality behind his cold and domineering image. meanwhile ML is his fanboy and the top disciple in his generation. side characters are fleshed out + has a variety of distinct female characters!! ... more>>

edit: that one f*cking f*cked up, graphic r*pe flashback (not between MC) around chapter 68 (?) makes want to stab myself. like. Why. what is the Purpose. what does it add to the narrative???? <<less

(ongoing translation) a pretty fun read ngl the first 21 chapters read like a detective conan case lol. ML is really upright and you know... more>> what, I get where he's coming from when he tortured MC. the first few times, he had doubts about MC's guilt but when he tried to investigate, all evidence pointed to MC (until it didn't!). aiyo you can even pinpoint the moment he realized he got the wrong person; his guilt was palpable. haih, they're both pitiful. <<less

(ongoing translation) THIS IS GREAT YOOOO this novel focuses more on the plot but didn't neglect to develop the main CP's relationship (though it is once again a slow burn) aaaaaaa MC and his disciples have strained relationships for different reasons except for the 4th one (justified, since MC was a callous OP immortal XD) so it focuses a lot on them. MC and ML both have selective (?) amnesia so it's really interesting to realize alongside them that their relationship wasn't as it seemed. it's been a while since I've read a novel with this writing style. The writing is fluid and almost poetic without sacrificing personality. lots of wordplays and idioms but the... more>> translator did an amazing job explaining them!! 

bonus points: great world building, distinct side characters and female characters with actual substance  <<less

(ongoing translation) THIS IS EXCELLENT. I love how calm and calculating MC is, in contrast to the endearingly blunt and childish ML. ML is only 17 and rather simpleminded since he was a s*ave but he's so adorable aaaa. MC was already a seasoned policeman before he died and his demeanor actually reflects that! it's refreshing how mature he is about life. romance is definitely slowburn since MC was a womanizer in his past life and has never seen men that way (rip ML lol) but the focus is on the plot anyways rather than the romance. the plot is excellent btw, love the constant history lessons and ancient china trivia. you can clearly see... more>> that the author did their research from how detailed their paragraphs and notes. the translator deserves credit too for their great translation and footnotes!!

edit: morally questionable chinese patriotism --> rationalizing cultural genocide, the erasure of ethnic identity to assimilate them into han chinese society. ick <<less

short and cute! it's too short for anything so it's pretty brainless but that's okay it's cute. MC is probably the only one who loves... more>> ML sincerely and ML actually likes him back but was just too late to realize that before MC died. the ending though,,,  the translation is so-so when I think about it but I guess my asian brain is accustomed to chinglish so I actually didn't realize at first hehe >< <<less
