This novel has colorism, racism, sexism, and classism. I probably missed some things too. I'm so upset that I spent energy stones on this. This novel had potential plot-wise, but the normalized "-isms" was too much for me. Idk if something got lost in translation or if this was the author's own words. Sad.

You guys must be think this is A VERY VERY Cliche novel. Well yeah, but.... This novel gave a different vibe 'kay?!! At first i thought '' Oh my... another cliche novel'' but after reading till chapter 15, I LOVE IT. Her ''dad'' is savage, her ''mother'' is caring and her ''brothers'' are so funny. I laughed a lot when read this novel. So guys don't judge this novel when u only read 1-5 chapters. It will affect out dear translator hard work

I'll be honest here.. The moment I read the synopsis I thought It's a copy but little changed version of FMHM.. So I stopped voting for it.. But after reading it today,, I feel like 15 chapters are not enough.. I wanna read the entire thing at once on the very first day.. Very nice speed and scenes so far.. I suggest you to read and enjoy it✌✌

If you guys are easily offended about the skin racism in this story don’t read it.. The story is nice but the blatant racism and also stigma about black skin people turn me off from this story.. If you guys don’t mind it then read the story.. I feel offended from this story cause I’m a natural tan skin girl.. This story make it sounds like black skin is ugly while being white and fair like jade skin is pretty.. I mean beauty is in the eyes of beholder.. Everyone is beautiful and pretty no matter what your skin tone is

Another Racist Webnovel, the least you can do is put in the racist tag since so many other novels of the same type has done it. Also MC seems like someone who looks down on everyone and thinks the worlds revolve around them. if there was a negative 5 star I would use that to rate this novel.

I really enjoyed this until I read the racist part. I'm black and I found it stereotypical and rude. Pls don't try to use "culture" as an excuse. You should go back and edit the racist part out.

I regret reading this book. Basically its about revenge towards MC's main family and MC's white lotust sis. To attain that however you have to be white and have some kind of "Goddess" like face. - That's main point of this story. I hate the fact that it promotes racism. (Example: She's so black they thought she lives in Africa.) You'll read plenty of this reference to black women, not to mention they jokingly did it and balantly laughs about it. This book is basically like a white-extremist and plastic surgery book. She did not have plastic surgery but the fact that she has to basically change her face, skin, body and whatnot just shows us that. This is my own opinion, don't read this book. You'll just be offended. The world have different types of skin colors not just white. Its not okay to limit yourself, if you have a certain skin type then accept it. If you have this certain features then accept it. Don't try to be something you're not just to please others.

It really disappoints me with the amount of people that call this story racist. It really is a culture difference that many people can’t understand. In many asian countries such as China pale skin represents beauty. It’s not that they’re trying to be racist but because of their history. In ancient China dark skin girls were the commoners who worked in the fields while light skin represents the elites who had the privilege to just stay at home and learn many different skills that are expected of a wife. So naturally these pale skin girls are more graceful because of the environment they grew up in. As time went on white pale skin is just seen as beauty. From my personal experience, I used to live in California, there I just wanted to be tan. Cuz everyone just sees tan skin as beautiful. I would often get questions like why or how are u so pale. I didn’t really care much but at the same time I always wanted to be more tan. However, when I moved to New York there were more asian immigrants around me where in their country pale white skin is seen as beauty. At that time I really started seeing the big culture difference. In some parts of the world people would go out to tan and in other parts no matter how hot it is they will cover themselves because they want to be pale. This story really is not racist from my perspective. If anyone hasn’t noticed almost all the female leads in Webnovel are described to have white, pale skin. This is not them trying to be racist or diss dark skin people but because in their culture pale, white skin is beautiful. I recommend that people have an open mind while reading these stories and not to take every word written in the story to heart. Sometimes there are just many phrases from China that are almost impossible to describe in English so the actual meaning is changed too. This really is a great novel so I hope many of u can see past the culture difference and enjoy the novel as it is.

this story reminds me of FMHM and another story i read and it's super racist, even if you try to avoid it it still comes back to slap you in the face, which is rlly uncomfortable, plus it's suuuuuuuuuuuuuper cliché. so if you like a cliché/ racist/ copycat story this is the one for you😐😐😐😐😐😐😒

This is a super super racist book, so hard pass. Don't waste your time or you stones on it. It's frankly embarrassing for everyone involved that they are publishing this on a website targeted at English speakers.

Mated To The Cruel Prince

[Matured Content] Saving an injured Fae in the forest had not been Islinda's plan, and worse, he turns out to be royalty, Prince Valerie of the summer court, heir and crown prince to the throne of Astaria. But then, humans were wary of those otherworldly creatures while the Fae looked down on the humans, thinking of them as lesser creatures. Islinda and the prince were worlds apart but that didn't stop them from falling in love. Unfortunately, Prince Valerie couldn't stay in the human realm forever and had to return to his kingdom with a promise to come back for her. And she believed him. But then, the other one comes instead. Dark, broody, ruthless yet dangerously handsome, everyone feared Prince Aldric. Even as a fierce warrior and son to the king of Astaria, Aldric is denied his right to the throne and cursed never to take his place because of his dark heritage. Twisted from the inside and starved of affection, Prince Aldric does what he is best at, causing misery. He captured Islinda - the woman who has drawn his brother's attention. He stole her from her home for his cruel purpose. If he couldn't have the throne, he could at least play around with his brother's love interest. His new prize. Islinda hated him. Loathed him for taking away everything that she could have had with the summer prince. He's the villain. Now she has been dragged into the middle of the dirty politics played in the courts of Astaria, not to mention surviving the cold games played by the prince. But all hope wasn't lost because the cruel prince could tempt her all he wants but he was never going to get the one thing he wants the most. To be loved. He would never have her heart! Or could he? ________ "What can you offer me, little human," He grinned, slow and cruel. She would make such a wonderful plaything. "Please," She begged him, tears now gathering in her eyes, "Just let me go." "Fine," He shrugged as if it was an easy request, "You can go." "W-what?" She croaked, finding it hard to believe. "Little human, you would find out my mind changes very easily." Those words sounded merciful yet she could sense the threat beneath. But did he really mean? Islinda didn't sit around to find out as she broke into a sprint. If there was even the slightest chance of him changing his mind, then she would take it. She would not give up hope yet. She didn't know why but Islinda spared a look over her shoulder after a while and the blood drained from her face at what she saw coming. Oh no, she just made a terrible mistake. This was never freedom. It was a hunt. And she just became the prey. _________ Note: This is a dark fantasy book and the male lead is a villain, so don't expect fluffy romance. What to expect? Death, gore, thick sexual tension, and explicit scenes. Also, it is not reverse harem. Gift magic castle = 5 bonus chapters! Come, let us have a wild hunt!

The General's Pampering Little Foodie Girl

#food Mo Chu was reborn. She opened her eyes to find herself in a world where a thousand years had passed. The docile animals and plants became very aggressive, and elemental abilities that existed only in stories and legends now appeared before her eyes! Fortunately, upon waking up, Mo Chu gained a nice-guy brother who had a sister complex. Unfortunately, she had a one-in-a-million sensitive constitution, so she couldn’t consume 99% of the available food. However, there would always be a solution. If she couldn’t eat the food of this era, couldn’t she come up with new food? And so, she made fries, grilled fish, beggar’s chicken, and various other delicacies that were not available in this future world. As a glutton, Mo Chu was satisfied with this outcome. However… “Wow! What have I been eating all my life? Her food is so delicious, it’s amazing!” “Aside from being delicious, the food can actually increase elemental powers, and its effects are several times better than pills!” “I offer five million Federal Coins!” “I offer ten million. Don’t compete with me! If you do, I’ll fight you!” Mo Chu held up her hands in defeat, feeling helpless. It was only grilled fish. Did they have to get so excited? *** Ning Yiyuan is the only marshal in the Federation and also a top-class expert whose elemental abilities could reach tier 12. Even in an environment where the number of men was double that of women, countless beauties would still throw themselves at him. Yet, he was never fazed. Over the past few decades, Ning Yiyuan was like a monument, always standing at the Federation battlefront. Yet, this monument started to crumble after meeting Mo Chu… “Uncle!” Mo Chu addressed him with her rosy lips, and Ning Yiyuan’s ever stoic face began to crack! He was only 40 this year. In the Federation where the average lifespan of a human was 300 years old, he was considered a youth. So how could he be called an ‘Uncle’? Hmph! He would have a word with this lass!

All he wants is to live a normal life of a human but the life of a dragon is anything but normal. He has but one goal—to find his runaway betrothed and behead her. What happens when he discovers that the woman who has snagged his heart is the one he vowed to kill? Oriana, a Black Witch, disguising herself as a man, has spent her entire life on the run without knowing what she is running away from. When the mysteries of her past slowly catch up to her, she has no one to turn to…except Arlan. But when she learns that the man she has given her heart to is the same man who wants to kill her, how can she accept the cruel card life dealt her? Two people with secrets to keep, identities to hide, and answers to find. When the certain darkness threatens to take Oriana away, will the Dragon be able to protect his mate? ----- Excerpt- “If I knew you were my betrothed, I would have killed you the very first moment we met." Arlan's gaze darkened with hatred. “If I knew I was betrothed to you, I would have killed myself before you even killed me!” Oriana mirrored the same emotions as him. He pulled out a dagger and offered it to her. “It’s not too late. Just slit your throat with this and you'll bleed out painlessly.” She accepted the knife, her fingers clutching its handle tightly. The next moment, he was pressed against the wall and the knife was on the right side of his neck. “How about I try it on you first, my betrothed?” “Feel free to try. But when you fail, this knife will first taste your grandpa's blood, then yours.” Anger rose in her eyes, and the next moment, blood was flowing through the right side of his neck. She cut deep enough to severe an important blood vessel. “You should not have challenged me,” she sneered and stepped back, waiting for him to collapse. He simply smirked and brushed his finger along the deep wound on his neck. “Seems like you failed.” She watched the wound on his neck heal on its own and felt shocked to her bones. “You.. what are you?” “Guess?” ----- Instagram- mynovel.20 Facebook- Author mynoveltwenty
