Wandering Cat

(MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS)

Though he was really written as an annoying character, he was the most misunderstood character at all. I liked him, I loved him. He may seems very ruthless and bad, but that's not the case. He has a heart. He just wants to be praised and recognized, that's why he do such stuffs. He was born and raised in a way that tolerated him to become such person like this. Despite all of that, I think, he really cared for Xie Lian until the present. He helps him in unnoticeable way. He also became the best dad for Gu zi. Knowing that this kid wasn't even fed by his real father, Qi Rong cared for him and raised him well. Feeds him with meat, and most importantly, he didn't eat him. When Gu zi was in danger, Qi Rong didn't even hesitated a second to save the child and that melted my heart. When Gu zi pleaded to save his dad because Qi Rong was his real dad, I immediately cried. This novel is so awesome. Not just the main characters, but the conflicts and affairs of the other characters are so heart warming.

I got addicted to this song and eventually keep singing and listening to it everyday. Who's with me?

Aside from MDZS, MXTX also wrote a novel entitled "Heaven's Official Blessing". It was her third novel. Though it was written in Chinese, worry not, there are tons of English translations around and the translations are quite good. If you are a big fan of BL and some historical genre and obviously—fantasy, then this would be the best pick for you to read.

The Heaven's Official Blessing had a donghua (animation) in 30th of October, 2020. Others say that it had a Manhua adaptation as well. But since the both are still on going, I suggest you to read the novel. The novel itself is detailed. You can freely use your imagination.

So here are the reasons why you should really read it:

1. It is BL, if you are a big fan of the Boy's Love Genre or Danmei in China, you will love this. The love between Xie Lian and Hua Cheng is really powerful. Imagine their patience is equals to 800 years? Yes, that's right.

2. It is in a Xianxia genre. Probably historical, or mythological and consists of fantasy stuff. As a fantasy lover myself, I highly recommend you this novel aside from MDZS.

3. The fight scenes are awesome. Really awesome! Sword fights, magical stuff and also has cultivators and even some demonic spirits around.

4. The emotions you'll feel are mixed. In my current situation, as I first time read this, I literally laughed in the beginning. The narration is funny and I thought it was a comedy. Later on, when I arrived at the rising part or going to the climax, my heart went shattered and cried at the same time laughing. MXTX never failed to make me feel like this. I sometimes get happy and laughed all the time then later I'll find myself crying.

5. The life lessons are really great. As well as the quotations, they marked in my head so well. Like what Hua Cheng said, "To die in a battle for you, is my greatest honor." And I cried a lot. And this one too, “Only after having met you did I discover that it's such a simple thing to be happy.” You can certainly learn some virtues and morals in this novel. It touched my heart a lot. Like I found and learned to be selfless at all times.

6. The angst are real. But the Ending is real too. The angst I have read in this novel really gave me an interaction with it. I can relate, and it can also tpuch my soul. I never cry easily or laugh easily, but just like what I've said, MXTX never failed to make cry or laugh so. The angst made me imagine the novel more that sometimes I forgot about the reality and think I am part of their world. This is really great. Knowing the ending is also great too. My heart and soul was moved.

In general, the novel was written so well. MXTX writing style improved. As well as the chapters. I think, Heaven's official blessings is her longest novel. Consisting 250 chapters including the extras. But the chapters don't matter. If you start reading it, you won't notice the long chapters but rather you'll feel that you're slowly entering the Xianxia world or their world itself.

One world could describe this novel—that would be beautiful. It was a beautiful masterpiece indeed. I have no regrets reading it. Sometimes, I came to think of reading it again. MXTX's impact to me never changes. I always find it hardly to move on from her novels.
