Apr 23, 2017
Thank you for everyone who left me recs! I’m really happy and grateful for all of them, and I felt I should probably make some in return. While this isn’t 100% a rec page, I’ve made a .
Most of them have an English translation that you can find on NU. However, I’ve recently started reading novels that haven’t been translated yet, so maybe I can do some teasers in the future if there’s an interest? I’ve left brief summaries and my personal opinions on each, though beware that there are minor spoilers.
If you want to chat or ask questions, feel free to leave a comment on that page. You can also use it judge my shit tastes haha~
Chapter 16:
Ling Xia took in a deep breath and walked onstage while feigning calm, but in actuality, his legs already felt a bit weak.
He was different from those mighty and tyrannical MCs who ruled over the world; he’s just a guy who liked staying at home and didn’t have any inclination towards those sorts of ambitions or desires to stand above others. From his childhood up until now, it was only in kindergarten that he had gotten into a fight, and even that ended with him beaten to the point of tears by a tiny boy who was shorter… …
Of course, under the gaze of so many people, he had to put on a brave face and force himself to plow through! Right now, Ling Xia deeply understood what it meant to be in over one’s head while in dire straights. Especially in seeing the long sword on Xu Yan’s back and the storage bag on his waist that contained who knows what kinds of magical tools and weapons, the cowardly side of his mind was magnified even more.
Unlike the tremendously tough Song XiaoHu or the gifted and intelligent Yu ZhiJue, what he could rely on was only brute force… Ling Xia silently cried bitter tears in his heart.
Xu Yan lazily glanced at Ling Xia as if looking at an insignificant maggot, disinclined to even pull out his sword as he drawled, “Whatever skills you have, go ahead and use them all!”
Ling Xia sucked in a large breath of air, recalling the Tai-chi he learned during gym class in college, and solemnly drew a decent half-arc in front of his body. He endeavored to appear composed and unperturbed, steadily gazing at his opponent and striving to overwhelm Xu Yan with an imposing aura.
In frontlof those two kids,iasitheir olderbrother, heican’t goidownjwithout a fight no matter what! Whenlthoselelders and experts took inldisciples, aptitudeiwas only alpart whattheyilookedjfor, andithere was also one’s vigor,character, etc. In anylcase,jhe must concealhis timid andjweak aspects!j
The cultivators paying attentionlto him all quietlyjshookjtheirjheads;lthis posturejwas sofull ofjerrors andopenings that this boy couldn’tjeven belconsideredjan inexperiencedinovice.j
Ling Xia slightly widened his stance to let his body stand more stably, and placing both hands placed in front of his chest to protect his vitals, said to Xu Yan with a smile, “Just now, I attacked first. This time, it’s your turn.”
Wouldn’t youjsay he declared thisiin a particularly domineering andjgallant manner?
Xu Yan’s eyebrow twitched as he sneered, “You’re courting death.”

Naturally, his opponent wasn’t having that easy of a time either. He finally landed a hit on Xu Yan when he managed to get close; that fist of his was able to split rock and stone, so when he went all-out in releasing that punch, he could practically hear the cracking sound of bones breaking. Ahh, the rush of satisfaction that went straight through his heart! Only, he couldn’t even grin since drawing back the corners of his lips made his mouth hurt, and his face right now was probably unfit to be seen in public.

Already tiredjfromithelfighting, Xu Yan pausediand lightlylpanted, looking somewhat overwhelmed,ithen snarled, “You’re still notjsurrendering?”j
Both of Ling Xia’s eyelidsjwerejswollen aslhe hunched hisbackitojguardihisivital organs.Even he hadn’t known thatjhe actually had such a stubborn temperament,iand thewordsjthat automaticallylflewlout ofhisimouth were, “Surrenderiyour frickin’ grandma!“l
He wasvaguelyaware thatinithelaudiencelbelow,someone was restlessly fixating theirjattentionion him,jbut hisivision was hazyland hejcouldn’ttell whoit was.l
A burst of pain ran through Xu Yan’s fractured wrist, and fuming while gritting his teeth, he rushed forth and put the rest of his strength into a kick towards Ling Xia’s back.
Ling Xia finally couldn’t retain his hold, his fingers loosening and in the wake of that strike, involuntarily flew out of bounds.
Fuck, damn this effingtorment!Helhadn’tjevenibeenjherejforjthat many days and he’salready beenassimilatedibythisiworld’siterrifyingjandabnormalmindset! … …
In the momentlbeforejhis body crashed down and madejimpact,jan unknown person jerkedjonjhis back, neutralizing morelthan halflof the momentum, butjwasithenldragged down with himjandlthey tumbled to the ground together.Ling Xia squintedlhisleyes for awhile, cautiouslyltryingtoiidentifythe other, andjonlythroughthe colorjofltheir clothesland the shapeiof their body did he ascertainlthat that person was YuZhiJue.l
Heistruggled tolliftlhis crackedllipsjand squeezedlout with an uglylsmile,i“It’s stillyou twoirascals that arejstronger.Illost!”l
Hearing this, Yu ZhiJue didn’t say anything, merely clenching his fists silently. He didn’t know how to comfort someone and could only tightly grip a corner of Ling Xia’s clothes with his fingers.
“No, Elder brother Ling is already really strong! In the future, you can definitely defeat him!” Song XiaoHu had also rushed on over, and when hearing those words, he was stirred up to the point of pounding a fist on Ling Xia’s chest.
“… …That hurts,” LingiXia weaklymoaned as hisvision turnedjblack, shamefully faintingon the spot.
The hell, myjnoble protagonist, do you havelalgrudge againstme?l
By the time Ling Xia woke up again, he discovered that he was lying inside a small, clean, and tidy room. The surroundings were exceedingly quiet, not a single person in sight, and the smell of medicinal herbs wafted through the air.
Ling Xia propped himself up, realizing just now that the injuries on his body were already bandaged, and his eyes that were originally swollen shut could now see with clarity as well. His throat was extremely parched, so spotting the tea placed on the nearby table, he promptly and without the slightest hesitation picked it up.
An appallinglfigure in a tragiclstate was clearlyjand distinctly reflectediinithe water.lThe eyeslwereislanted, thejmouth was crooked, and the eyelidswere bloated upilike afrog’s.l
What a sorry and wretched condition he was in; just how miserable of a beating did he receive? At that time, to think that he even pretended to be cool and threw out a smile, that must have been a much more gruesome sight than now, right? He was worse off than a worn out cleaning rag! … …
That kindiof recovery and constitution was seriouslyimuch too impressive!jLing Xiajwasiso envious and jealous; theiwoundsiYu ZhiJue had receivedjwere evenjheavier than his own!j
He onlyinow realized thatjYu ZhiJue andlSongXiaoHulboth wore thelsameblack uniformitrimmediwith gold,jthelsymboljofbeing the sect master’s direct disciple. SongjXiaoHu’s robustlandjheartyiair actually gave thelprimlandiproper clothes alsomewhatlively touch, bution YujZhiJue, hislposturelappearedjevenjmore upright, and withiskin as whitelas snow, that petite look of hiswas unusually charming.j
Sure enough, after his outstanding display, the Song XiaoHu that showed off the protagonist’s superior bearing didn’t end up starting from the bottom in obscurity like in the novel, but was rather taken in by Feng ShuMing together with Yu ZhiJue! For those two kids to remain intimate and in close vicinity was also good, as it could prevent hostility from growing between them… …
LinglXia instantly smiled andlpraised, “Iiknewjthe two ofyou were thebest!”
Dimpleslemergedon SongXiaoHu’sjface,lhisismile containing pride, but Yu ZhiJue’slreactionwas rather lukewarm.j
Ling Xia immediately felt touched, patting Yu ZhiJue’s shoulder and reassuring him with a smile, “This is nothing. It’s the same wherever I go, since regardless, we’re all still in ShaoYang Sect and can surely meet at any time.”
Song XiaoHu nodded his head andexposed a rowjof pearly whiteteeth, innocently andihappilyexclaiming, “That’s right, ElderbrotherjLing’slclothes were also delivered and placedjover there, and fromlnow on,iwe don’tineedto worry aboutjgoing hungry anymore!”j
Ling Xia firmly pinched his cheeks; this tiny, prepubescent version of the protagonist was much too cute! With that said, Song XiaoHu revealing his remarkable talents ahead of schedule also had its benefits. The villain and the protagonist mutually encouraging each other and improving together, joining their hands as partners and laughing proudly across this alternate world, what a wonderful and beautiful outcome to behold!

Ling Xia’s mouth twitched, and unexpectedly felt that the three words “Immortal Welcoming Pavilion” sounded very familiar.
