*exhaaaaaaaales*
This series have a recurring theme of the main (male) character being brutally manhandled by women. I'm trying to not make a joke about it, but it's getting harder and harder.
Also; this character is chained to wealth, so that necklace is there for a reason.
Before #Xianxia got popular in the West be cause of dramas like Till the End of the Moon and Love Between Fairy and Devil, we watched these types of xianxias, which are based on Chinese mythology. This is 八仙过海 "Eight Immortals Cross the Sea".
Back then, xianxia was about immortals saving the world, not about them falling in love .
In #Xianxia, the road to love is littered with ... amnesia.
On my reading blog, I review Peerless Vol. 3 by Meng Xi Shi. Best volume so far, with the gut-wrenching twist typical of the author.

Here's the thing: I hail from a teacher family with members in the profession from at least two generations, and since my major is history of religions many has hinted that I should teach too. Not _once_ has anyone tried to lure me in by lining up cute students in front of me. Not sure if it would work...
I review The Husky and His White Cat Shizun vol 7 by Rou Bao Bu Chi Rou. Endless battles, not-so-final bosses, and stunning revelations. Entertaining as always, but a bit long.

Instead of turning into a human like everyone else, Lumière fled to Heng Dian and became a C-drama star. His whole body has been blurred for privacy.
Hey there!

The amazing art was done by the wonderful Kiguri over on X, @/nomaismar!

Had to take a short break from social media, but I'm back!
I bring an offering; a quick little mood board for one of the characters from my indie novel series, Primrose. She's an an assassin type with an interesting backstory that's fleshed out a lot in book two!

Damnit 念无双people, why are you stingy with the promos??
Ok at this rate I want to say all I want is for A Moment But Forever to release now so that I can stare at the pretty people.
Ok ONE specific pretty person, admittedly.
Also realised that it's not that I dislike #xianxia. So much of xianxia is catered to the 20s demographic. I want the characters to be more mature and older. We older folks want our fantasy stories too & this is a rare one that caters to older audiences.
It's scenes like this that makes me think the acting profession must feel strange some times. What was the director's order for this?
'Sit here, make sure this loose fabric don't reveal too much, and look smug while we blow you half to death with a leafblower'?
Trying really hard not to be excited for 念无双 (A Moment but Forever) but failing miserably
Said to air in December on iQiyi but I am not holding my breath.
#intro post for yr. villainous friend
Hello! I'm Rae and I'm here for #fandom, primarily #webnovels of the #danmei, #baihe, #wuxia, and/or #xianxia variety. I watch the occasional #cdrama too, but very slowly. As you can tell from my name, I am an #MDZS fan (also #SVSSS and #TGCF). I'm currently doing a #ChuLiuxiangReadalong, watching #LegendOfFei, and constantly thinking about #ALeagueOfNobleman and its source novel #ZhangGongAn. I love villains and stories about conflicting loyalties, dark pasts and mysterious secrets. I write fanfic and share it here.
Other than fandom, I post a little about #ChineseHistory, learning Mandarin (just passed HSK 3 and HSKK Elementary!), historical bookbinding, personal web dev, and so on. I'm in the Central European time zone and also read German, plus a tiny bit of Swedish.
