Great read’
This novel is the epitome of a power fantasy with little to no consequences for the main character.
The core premise of the story is that the main character has become the villain and must alter his circumstances to prevent the protagonist from defeating him. For me, the appeal of such stories lies in witnessing the main character’s efforts to change their fate. However, this novel focuses solely on showcasing how "great" the main character is, while everyone else is either trash or serves to emphasize his greatness.
Let's start with the first few "heroines" we encounter. The author, like many poor writers of Chinese harem novels, opts to describe women in the most clichéd manner possible. Here’s an example for the first heroine, Yan Ruyue:
**Spoiler**
> "An extremely beautiful woman was seated opposite to him. Her beauty made it seem like she had come out of a painting. Her long hair dangled over her shoulders like a waterfall. Her facial features were truly flawless. When you combine the two, it was enough to stupefy most people. Any person would find it enjoyable to just look at her face alone. The perfect figure under her blue dress would make it more difficult for any man to gaze away from her. It was hard to find any shortcomings in her appearance. Alas, her pretty face was icy cold at the moment and impatience could be seen in her eyes."
Nearly every heroine is described in the same way: goddess-like beauty, perfect body, flawless, etc. There is minimal actual development of their characters; most of the plot revolves around how "infatuated" they will become with the main character.
For instance, Yan Ruyue is the fiancée of Lin Yuan, the character the main character "transmigrated" into. **Spoiler**
> Before his takeover, Yan Ruyue hated how Lin Yuan constantly hounded her, never listened to her, and objectified her. After his takeover, he breaks off the engagement. Now Yan Ruyue thinks there is something wrong with her because he no longer pursues her. What kind of characterization is this when someone you hated for the majority of your relationship suddenly becomes appealing just because they stop pursuing you?
Meanwhile, Lin Yuan meets the second heroine, Qiu Wanxi. **Spoiler**
> Just because he boosts his Charm stat through the broken game system, when he meets her for the first time, he can constantly pat her head without her objecting, and she ends up following him around without even knowing his name. Then, just because he feeds her favorite foods, she immediately opens up to him about her dream of owning a baking shop, and since he's wealthy, he immediately gives her a baking shop. How easy and convenient?
Another significant issue with the story is the "power" system that Lin Yuan possesses. He is given choices to make, and with each choice, he automatically acquires godlike skills without any consequences. There is no struggle for him to develop his powers.
For example, he gets his first choice with Yan Ruyue: **Spoiler**
> He has to choose between continuing the relationship with her or breaking the engagement. However, in either choice, he automatically sees the reward, so there isn’t exactly a wrong answer. Whatever choice-reward he picks is conveniently beneficial for future plot events.
Since he chose to break the engagement with Yan Ruyue, he automatically learns godlike medical skills, which miraculously allow him to cure Yan Ruyue's mother, despite the presence of "top medical doctors." How convenient, huh?
Here’s an even more absurd reward. He manages to get a reward that makes him **Spoiler**
> a god-expert at the stock market, which he uses to convince his parents to invest 5 billion into "Spanish Stock Trade" instead of another stock recommended by their financial advisor. Yes, he has "knowledge" of the future, but the event plays out in a way that highlights the extreme power fantasy.
Just within one day, his "investment" makes 20 billion, while the other stock crashes. Now he’s considered "the Chinese Warren Buffett," everyone lauds his skills, and even the financial advisor calls him her savior because if they had followed her advice, she would have lost the company billions. Seriously?
The final straw that made me drop this novel is how the author treats Ye Feng, the original protagonist. **Spoiler**
> Using Lin Yuan’s resources, he tracks when Ye Feng arrives. He immediately tries to frame Ye Feng for groping females, starting fights, and property destruction, all in front of Yan Ruyue to prevent them from forming a bond as they did in the previous story.
This shows that Ye Feng, like every other plot device so far, is merely a tool to highlight how great Lin Yuan is. Unlike other novels with villain reincarnations, there isn’t anything that Lin Yuan struggles with. There’s no good humor in the story. Every scene emphasizes how handsome or amazing Lin Yuan is. Every woman is merely an object for the main character. The world lacks depth, and Lin Yuan already starts off as a rich millionaire in a modern setting with some Chinese martial fantasy. The power system lacks any sense of innovation and only serves to heavily reward Lin Yuan with convenient skills to navigate the next plot event.
I truly love the little wolf, and the idea of a fantasy creature transforming into a human is right up my alley. I'm eager for more! ❤️❤️❤️ Huge thanks to the translator for their diligent work! ?
Reverend insanity
It's the MTL. I read up to chapter 700 and it's really low quality so don't recommend trying it. The lower chapter counts are the official translations.
looks pretty good in the first 5 chapter but translation is worst than mtl so i dropped it.
A decent read for when you’re quite bored
Should I read from the start or continue from where the donghua is(episode 37 as of this comment)?
