White No-Face, Xie Lian’s greatest fear and most hated enemy, has arrived…or so it seems. While the ghost with the half-crying, half-smiling mask is somewhere nearby, the creature is elusive as always, taunting Xie Lian from just out of reach and promising the total destruction of everything he holds dear. And so this Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, was undoubtedly the Heaven’s beloved darling. The things he wanted, there was nothing he could not obtain. The things he wanted to do, there was nothing that was impossible for him to accomplish. And when he wanted to ascend into godhood, he really ascended into godhood at age seventeen. I KNOW IM JUST WORD VOMITING HERE NOW BUT WHO CARES IM JUST GLAD I FOUND ANOTHER MASTERPIECE TO OBSESS OVER. objectively, this novel is not without its flaws but i love it nonetheless. suddenly i feel something again thanks to tgcf. god bless. this brainrot will last for a long time. im sure of it. White No-Face’s mask is off, and the final conflict has begun. Deep in the ancient caverns and lava flows of Mount Tonglu, Xie Lian must face the one whose hatred has plagued him for centuries—but this time, he won’t have to do it alone. His beloved, Hua Cheng, has spent his long existence amassing the power to protect him, and now with their feelings for each other out in the open, they have all the more reason to fight for survival. There was gratefulness, there was shame, there was heartache, there was wild joy, but above all else, there was incurable love.

It's been so long since I read a series (yes, it's only one book, but it's as if it were a five-book series as it's divided into five parts) in which my interest in the characters went up with every book instead of steadily declining. Why is English publishing so bad at sequels? [I have theories, but they're OT and I will shut up.]

For context, I’ve already read and reviewed MDZS, and I’m currently more than halfway through SVSSS. So I think it’s fair to say seeing that all of MXTX's novels are now being officially translated and published in English ( info here) and I'm waiting on season 2 of the donghua as well as the live action, it seems a perfect time to breeze through the pre-existing fan translation so I can get my hualian fix UPDATE 20/11/21: I tried to be strong, but I just couldn’t resist taking a peek at the donghua, and it’s SO DAMN PRETTY!

This is a Chinese story through and through, and what I mean by that is: there is just SO. MUCH. DRAMA. It’s over the top, yes - as Chinese stories so often are - BUT it’s the best kind of drama. There’s betrayal, vengeance, pain; and there’s love, devotion, friendship - you name it. It’s an epic love story spanning 800+ years, but it’s so much more. Also, the character development is insane (Xie Lian). Aaaaand I’ll stop right here, because I don’t want to spoil anyone’s reading experience. The Emperor Reborn and His Dearest Enemy Cruel tyrant Taxian-jun killed his way to the throne and now reigns as the first ever emperor of the mortal realm. Yet somehow, he is unsatisfied. Left cold and bereft, abandoned by all he held dear, he takes his own life…only to be reborn anew. Awakening in the body of his younger self—Mo Ran, a disciple of the cultivation sect Sisheng Peak—he discovers the chance to relive his life. This time, he vows to attain the gratification that once eluded him: all who defied him will fall, and never again will they treat him like a dog. His greatest fury is reserved for Chu Wanning, the coldly beautiful and aloofly catlike cultivation teacher who betrayed and thwarted Mo Ran time and again in their last life. Yet as Mo Ran shamelessly pursues his own goals in this life he thought lost, he begins to wonder if there might be more to his teacher—and his own feelings—than he ever realized. Seven Seas Licenses THE HUSKY AND HIS WHITE CAT SHIZUN: ERHA HE TA DE BAI MAO SHIZUN Chinese Danmei Novels by Rou Bao Bu Chi Rou Each large-trim volume features a mix of exclusive color and b/w interior illustrations as well as special appendixes (glossary, character guide, etc.).Because of the writing style, it’s really reminiscent of manhua/manga, which may be irritating to some. It didn’t bother me in the slightest - in fact, when I learned that there’s an actual TGCF manhua (sadly, only a couple of chapters) and plans for donghua, I was over the moon. When it’s finally complete, I’d love to revisit this wonderful tale. ARE YOU STILL READING? Cause we're going to get into the juicy bits. On the first day of Xie Lian being a God, he was tasked to do some work and there he encountered The Supreme Ghost King that's everyone's terrified of, a creature that can make the Heavenly Officials pee in their pants and had their tails between their legs. AND LET ME TELL YOU. THIS SUPREME GHOST KING??? He's Xie Lian's number one simp. Yes. You read that right. And also, Xie Lian's one and only believer.

Emperor Jun also answered with eight words: “This child’s future is limitless, impossible to measure.” The people of the entire Xian Le country naturally celebrated. However, since ancient times, folk tales had long tried to warn people of a truth. The event of an unauthorized immortal descending to the human realm would absolutely not bear a good result. Hidden Truths and Buried Hearts The longer Mo Ran spends in his life reborn, the less he understands the man he once was, to say nothing of the teacher he so hated. As emperor of the mortal realm, Mo Ran loathed Chu Wanning with all his being, but the Chu Wanning of this life has sacrificed himself for his student’s sake time and again. Nevertheless, with the day of Chu Wanning’s greatest betrayal on the horizon, Mo Ran clings to his hatred and his hopes: he must not let the past repeat itself. Yet strange new tragedies continue to unfold, and Mo Ran finds himself working alongside Chu Wanning to hunt down the mysterious culprit—a cruel mastermind who may know more about Mo Ran than even he remembers. Born the crown prince of a prosperous kingdom, Xie Lian was renowned for his beauty, strength, and purity. His years of dedication and noble deeds allowed him to ascend to godhood. But those who rise, can also fall...and fall he does, cast from the Heavens again and again and banished to the mortal realm. Things will become complicated at this point. He didn't know that all this time, a particular Demon King was observing him.You can find hundreds of english translated light novel, web novel, korean novel and chinese novel which are daily updated! The altar lamps that burned day and night trembled as their flames danced violently. Godly officials who were awakened departed from their own palace halls, rushing about as they asked, who is the upstart that ascended? This place is shaking so much!

He’d never encountered anything he wasn’t able to accomplish, and he also never met anyone who didn’t love him. He was always right, and he was the heart of the world. To put it more vulgarly, wasn’t he just an useless figure who was unable to accomplish anything, but liable to spoiling everything else? And among the lightning flashes and thundering rolls, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ascended into godhood.After laughing, those who were more sentimental would perhaps sigh. The proud and aloof son of the Heavens from the past truly disappeared. The pining and longing between the main characters had me weak and frail and just fragile. Reading about their past and what they've gone through to reach where they were today just made me emotional. I love the sincerity between the characters in this book, how it shows Hua Cheng's devotion to Xie Lian, and how they are each other's meaning of their lives and how they influenced each other to keep going and live. To survive. I held this book dearest in my heart and no other novels can compete against TGCF. The guard of honour made his third lap around the city walls, passing through one side with a dozen or more tall city walls. Romance and side arcs quite disconnected from the story. Quite frankly, most of this book is just romance with the plot and characters put in second place because “lOOk hOw CuTe the COuPLe iS!” You could literally take out all the side arcs and the story would literally be no different. The romance overtakes the entire plot and becomes the main point of the story. With her other two books, the romance is like the icing on the cake. With this book, the icing overtakes the cake and becomes the cake. This is mainly a fantasy novel with action, comedy, drama, historical and mystery elements, as well as some shounen-ai and xianxia, xuanhuan aspects.
