    For the last few weeks I've been addicted to Xianxia novels but because interest can wane so I'm now looking for something new. I prefer lighthearted narration. No cheesy romance. I like to read something like Legend of Sun Knight , [RPG], and [Disciple].

    Gong Hua is unique. It has different atmosphere compared to Yu Wo other works, and a little bit heavier. Yu Wo once mentioned that Gong Hua is an ambitious project of her, and seeing the concept used and the map, it sure has more depth than her other works. Try to read the first 2-3 chapter to see if the style suit you.

    Who doesn't love weed?

    Evil God was too short. a lot of female character lead stories always seem to be too short unless its an otome or its a gender-bender

    True. But its better to read a short story that's good from the beginning to the end, rather than something that starts well, becomes boring by the 200th chapter and continues that way till 1000+chapters right?
