When i read this story, and the many others like it, it makes me wonder what the authors were thinking. I imagine a women's meetup where they all decide to write a martial arts/romance story, and discuss what'll all be in it. "Lets all go with a reincarnation trope, its popular currently!" "Sure!" "Yeah!" "Okay!" "I love reincarnation stories! YES!" "So my FL is going to be an Alchemist!" "Oooh, mine'll be an Armament crafter!" "Mine's gonna be a poison specialist!" "Mine's gonna be able to tame spirit beasts!" "Mine'll be an Alchemist too! But she'll also have spirits that give her special powers and help her cultivate!" *collective excited squeeing* "Okay, now lets see, lets make her family rotten, this way it'll show our readers our beloved FL is strong and can take care of herself and trample on all opposition!" """"YEAH!!!"""" "But what about the ML? What'll he be like?" """"..."""" "How about very feminine in appearance?" """"Yes!!"""" "He should be confident, arrogant even!" "Yeah! And domineering!" "Oooooh, im liking him already! He should be royalty too! Someone so handsome should have high standing in society!" "And he should be forceful with the FL, claiming her as his whether she likes it or not! *gigglefits*" """"YISSSSS!!!! You are a genius!"""" "He should also have secrets! Maybe he's wounded and hiding from enemies, while posing as royalty!" "OR! He is Royalty, and is hiding from enemies wanting to wipe out his entire bloodline!" "PERFECT!" "You're so good at this!" "Hee hee, right?" And thus, we have 20+ carbon copies with essentially the same theme with small twists and changes...

XD To be fair, the male / male-audience-targeting authors do meet-ups like this too LMAO. Seriously, though, it's actually in Qidian's writer manual to carbon copy popular works. From what I've gathered, writing by numbers is the whole idea. I don't usually read long works whose endings I can't even see, but single-volume works like manga live off of tropes, and I for one don't mind bingeing them until I've had enough, then I try other stuff. I guess there are many who have longer patience out there ;P P.S. I just made this reply because I found your review very funny. Thanks for that

I gotta agree that the majority of the male leads in the female cultivation novels are really ****ty. Just as females find the women in male novels are badly portrayed, the males in female novels are often badly written. They just outright suck in some circumstances.

Omg 😂😂 I was scrolling the reviews for this novel because i wanted to have an idea if this will be in my cup of tea. I wanted to know if it's worth reading and i may say your review caught my attention. Thanks for the bit of info about the novel. I guess it's one of those that will frustrate me 👍😄

I'll be honest chapter one of your novel is pretty interesting. Keep going with it, take it out comment styles beta reading and make it a full blown novel. I'd read it. I actually wrote comments in the syle of a fairy tale or monologue kinda thing, based purely on the sect battles often found in the comment sections. EXP SECT is the villain of the whole Widian realm and enemy to all such as F5 Sect and XP CLAN Alike. Even the Heavenly Thumb clan and Command[R] Empire were severely hard by the EXP Sect.

yeah, so um, really f*cking cliche. Just when you think a story can’t get any more cliche, BOOM another one pops up. This story’s got: - The genius who died and then reincarnated into the body of a “trash” - the over-the-top descriptions Ex. Every time the ML enters the scene, there is always a sentence of two describing “his deep, devilish eyes, his seductive thin lips, chiseled features, yada yada.” Like we f*cking get it, the male leads got a hot bod, just shut up about it already. Ex. “Her body was voluptuous, her perfect figure complementing her ice cold features, her jade skin—-l like we f*ckijg get it already. - the constant use of the word “slut”, or for more variety, “cheap slut”, and “good-for-nothing”. Like holy f*cking **** I get tired of reading that every other sentence. It’s degrading. Demeaning. Unpleasant to read and to the eyes. Again, just shut the f*ck up already and hit up a thesaurus. - the male lead who’s interested in her for no reason other than “omG she’s such a cunning woman I think I’m falling in luuuuuurrrrrvvvv~~~” - oh yeah, the male lead also happens to be from some peerless background and has super high status, is powerful, etc etc. - the family of snakes - the despotic siblings who give her hate for no good reason other than the fact that the FL can’t cultivate and has poor potential. - the pay-to-win system where everything costs money and yeah, simply working hard will get you nowhere. Oh yeah, FL is only great because she’s got all these awesome techniques and limitless potential. Whoot whoot. - the unnecessary commentary from the “crowd” who always seem to have something to say. Albeit, a pathetic attempt to reach word count. - the use of regurgitated, redundant words, ex. “heaven defying” Oh, I could go on. Also, I read till like chapter 32 but since I ain’t letting this piece of sh*t stay in my library, the chapter count is 0. Count how many times I swore. Multiply that by 16379257 and that’s how pissed of I am and how done with these books.

Valerian Empire

A dark time when the creatures of shadow descended unto the tranquil human lands, making their existence known. A time followed when empires were led by humanity's conspiracy and betrayal, a time filled with hatred, but unbeknownst to the humans, they were only mere puppets, pawns of greater beings of darkness, entities with the power to crush anything and everything in their way. What happens when a small human girl catches the eye of one of these so-called greater beings, a pureblooded Lord? Can an ant such as her survive the political strifes and fearsome feuds between the lands and the monsters that control them. For those who fear vampires, ghosts and the unknown, I offer two words of advice… Tread lightly. -------- "Why should I avoid him? He was a perfect gentleman, a good man," Katherine Welcher argued in his defense. "Good or not, neither matter," Alexander Delcrov warned her, "As long as you're under my wing, you shall behave and listen to my words. Do not let any man kiss you, Katherine. I don’t want others to call you improper." "There was nothing improper about it! And I'm not yours to obey," she blurted out in annoyance, feeling her face flush with embarrassment for the second time this evening, "I mean, you can't order me aro—-" "So disobedient," he stated with nonchalance before moving his hand from her waist to her back, pulling her closer to him as they danced. His breath tickled her nape. "So you’ll only listen if you are mine?"
