    I thought he did the translations for improving his Chinese. I think I heard this somewhere but yeah, he has now talked multiple times about not receiving donations lol.

    Read in chunks.

    Novels meant to be read as volumes or books not chapter by chapter. Otherwise, you will always feel like it's slow or short or something similar.

    I'm all for donating if you can afford it. Promoting donations and using ads aren't bad things as long as they don't go overboard. Besides, the fictional chapter was quite good and entertaining; nothing wrong with doing it occasionally.

    However, I feel like releasing 30 chapters in one go might be a better promotion. Though, you need to be the god of translators to pull that off. :)

    Uhh, you know that most of these novels are web novels right... Web novels aren't meant to be read in chunks. They're usually updated by the author every so often and read chapter by chapter as they're released.

    I do read some light novels in huge chunks but for these web novels I enjoy them much more chapter by chapter and there's something thrilling, dramatic, building up, cliffhangers etc.
    But *shrugs* this is only my opinion though.
    Even when I'm reading other web novels like worm, pact or twig I tend to read them by chapter as they come out. It just makes it more interesting.

    Read this all in one go, depressing... All his waifus are pushed away from him because of talent.

    His waifus are all stronger/better than he is, or at least for now.
    I like it this way. He needs to grow and return stronger so he can have revenge..

    His first waifu is but not the nun girl. They're just picking her up because her potential is better because he lied about his spirit root. They're the same Qi level but he can already fight people 2-3 levels ahead of him because MC powers.

    Now he just needs to find some quiet place and uses all those ling shis and that fruit he has on him, some good ol' power leveling.

    Finally we see some of his 'good luck'. But is it even enough to make up for being thrown out of an airship?

    Absolutely, people get thrown out airships and live all the time. At least in JRPGs they do...

    Getting throw out of airships is a strangely specific that happens too often in JRPGs. I blame final fantasy for that. Maybe the author is a fan. That'd actually make sense.

    In Xianxia it's off a cliff into a river, "trash" MC always lives. Rivers are good friends to the needy.

    I enjoy reading this novel so far, it gives me some wuxia vibe.
    please tell me it won't become some xuanhuan cliche troupe in the later chapter.

    Sorry i mean some overused plot, generic or typical xuanhuan, cliche interaction, no deep character etc.
    You know like: Bullied --> stumble upon some ass-kicking treasure --> training --> stomped the bully --> searching some treasure (and yeah he never fails to get it) --> meet some canon fodder villain who make trouble --> kill the cannon foder --> train again --> meet some jade like skin woman who fawn over him --> repeat.
