That's why I say, we have to urge Premonition to release faster for you guys! Everyone, join me and summon @Premonition !
Ah I remember that now, I only read up to where Spoiler he almost got killed in bed by that assassin, and the alchemist brotherhood poisoned the guy. Errr TL-dono please translate at a comfortable place and let anon's rub your feet for faster releases...
Of course. A xianxia needs to have a harem to become popular or a protagonist as charismatic as Yang Chen, the guy from Kings avatar, Qin Chao, Yun Che, Ezio Auditore or Edward Kenway. Then only it will be a big hit
He does have a harem though. Spoiler: Potential Harem Members He has a regular human girl, your typical tsundere loli, a girl who likes extreme (cultivation) sports, an onion, a ghost, and a fish.
Neotare it's basically cuckolding in Japanese Someone R+$&ing someone Infront of their significant other
Yang Chen - My Beautiful CEO Yun Che - ATG Qin Chao - My Beautiful Teacher Yue Yang - LLS The Guy from Kings Avatar - Kings Avatar All are xianxias, charismatic & overflow. That's why let the charisma flow --- Ezio, Edward are As Creed. But they are charismatic & popular
I too have read all the RAWs, and new chapters are more or less the highlight of my day. I'll add some more to what Scrya said: This is a story that puts some twists on familiar Xianxia concepts, actually adapting them for a modern setting. Is there killing? Yes, but the MC rarely kills, and he does it out of necessity rather than revenge. Is there romance? Yes, but it's complicated. Is the MC OP? Yes, for his level, but this is a story where most of the characters are seniors, and problems often aren't resolved by combat, and it's often not fights where Song Shuhang has a stake, or is strong enough to make a difference. Does the MC have cheats? Not at the beginning, where he instead accumulates lots of small advantages. Later on, starting at maybe chapter 500, he starts getting more and more OP cheats. But all his cheats are highly entertaining, and probably the best example of good MC powers I've seen. Is the MC disproportionally lucky? Yes, but he also pays for his good luck with bad. Luck is such a tangible part of this novel that it's practically a character in itself, if a very capricious character. Is there loads of young masters who can't see Mt. Tai? Barely any! In a sharp departure from most of the genre, Song Shuhang is almost universally regarded either as an outstanding junior, or a respected senior by pretty much everyone he meets.
*Cough cough* The King's Avatar Ye Qiu? TKA is a tabletop rpg genre that's not a xianxia. LLS is xuanhuan and so is ATG.
Seeing the thread title "CCG, and Why You Should Read it" piqued my interest But seeing the long paragraph of introduction I was discouraged to read the reason why should I read it. lol I read it anyway.
