It's pretty good. There's a good mix of light-heartedness and humor to off-put the, at times, rather grim story. As of the latest chapter currently translated(316), the characters have only on a handful of occasions acted in ways I would consider "out of character". They're consistent in their beliefs and bearings and the story unfolds accordingly, rather than being a bunch of psychopaths doing emotional 180s whenever the author wants to force something through. The translation quality for the earlier chapters by Walk the Jianghu were very high quality. There was a lot of noise made about Novel Saga's work, but having read it myself I have had no difficulties. The only real gripe I've had with it is that the translator sometimes appears to have used the English equivalent of a word, even when that equivalent is... outlandish, to say the least. But I consider that a very minor problem, and it only happens rarely. As for the story, I would also rate it rather highly. There's a good balance between cultivation, politicking and scheming; although it is rather light on fighting, surprisingly. I am currently also following another work by the same author, Realms In The Firmament, and the similarities are obvious. If you enjoy that story, you will probably enjoy TTNH as well. I will refrain from ****** a judgement on the romance so far, mostly because there has been very little of it. The only thing I can say about it really is that there are several love interests, but the MC remains devoted to the primary one. The novel is classified as a harem, and certainly there are relevant women, but as of yet there's been rather limited progress. As for flaws, they are the same as most WNs suffer from, in my mind. The stories are incredibly long, which is both a good and a bad thing. For casual entertainment it is excellent; one novel can hold you over for several days. But it also causes the story to stagnate relatively often. Obvious incoming plot points are delayed by several chapters of content that, while entertaining, is mostly irrelevant. It's difficult for me to judge WNs, because to use the same standards I apply to the more classical type of novel can't really be used. Overall, I would not classify it as an inventive story. It is done very well, however, ****** for an entertaining story with decent characters, which is also in no way hampered by the translation quality. So.. yeah. It's pretty good.

What's the best place to read the previous chapters?

I also follow Realms in the Firmament and am now more encouraged to try this out. The manhwa adaptation of this was something of a turn off, in addition to the inconvenience of the whole thing not being in one place, but your review has changed my mind...

If you are hesitant on whether to read this novel or not..... DO IT. *romance... brotherhood... family... power* First of all...... I'm here to say that this novel is actually one of the most deep and "poetic" novels that I have ever read. Aaaaand... I've read A LOT OF NOVELS. - The topmost reviews are about poor translation quality. The translation quality has no issues (because it has been fixed recently I assume). In fact the translations are just as descriptive as the RAWS. I assure you. - The characters all have depth. Although the MC is a bit OP and cold with his godsword, he has a bit of background and has reasons for his personality. All the characters in the story have a history that makes them who they are today and the author illustrates that very thing. The author also reveals the background and also the lives of the MC's 'brothers' when they are not with the MC (their family ties/lives, their loved ones, etc.). Each person has a depth to them (including enemies and occasionally side characters). *it's not SAO* - The Stability of Updates: the speed should be around 1-2 chapters a day if I'm not mistaken. Although around the time I am posting the review, the translations got suspended because of some transitioning. BE SURE TO CHECK HOW OLD THIS COMMENT IS BEFORE YOU JUDGE because the translations may have resumed by the time you're reading this. TL;DR: - The reviews against the "translation quality" are out-of-date. The translations are now very good. I assure you that if you like a smart MC, brotherhood concept, and a but of romance, this NOVEL IS FOR YOU. You should trust me because I have read these novels every single day for many years. It won't let you down
