What kind of writing do you all prefer? "Show, Don't Tell" or "Tell, Don't Show"
I realized one of the reasons I'm not having fun w/ this novel it's because it's too much of the latter. The author randomly puts SO many facts literally in the middle of a scene lasting over a chapter, just to explain one little thing. It prolongs the story _ makes it so boring to me. Where is the chemistry between the two mains?
Ch 40

I've been so stressed in my personal life, I can hardly read. This makes me sad. 😣😢

I'm learning to just embrace the writing that the main character is Xia Qiao and Zhou Xu and it's being told in their eyes. Lol

Okay okay so a cultivator can clear desolate malevolent energy, but if they fail to do it right, they would be contaminated and corroded?? *cough cough* XW. And WS is like a skeleton, soulless and a bottomless bucket... (≖ᴗ≖ ✿)
Okay, the pot has started to boil. The plot is a-cooking. Finally omg I was hungrier for it than WS' hunger for that dark mist!
*strokes invisible beard*

Ch 27/117

Am I reading Charles Dickens who got paid by installment? I don't think we needed 80 plus pages to figure out who this lady is and what's her lingering attachment. I think it described and gave you way too many scenes only to give you very little relevant information to solve it and tie it to the mc, imo. Good lord... But okay. We move on. I still have hope I'll become invested.

I'm hitting a slump, sadly.

The consequences of going into this blind is that I wasn't expecting it to be semi-creepy!
I'm curious if this story revolves around the characters entering these cages over and over. If so, it's gonna get old and I'm not gonna enjoy it as much. Idk what to expect. Idk if that's a good or bad thing. This story doesn't have me as engaged as I thought it would, thus I'm struggling.
Prior readers: enlighten me, please.

Things I'm thinking of as I'm reading this:

-The couple reminds me of You Huo and Qin Jiu from QQGK.
-Ah that's right... Mu Su Li's writing very unique in the sense of "what in the world is happening?" (Personally some scenes like this kinda bore me and drag, but after you get a reveal, it makes sense.)
-OHHHHH! AW! Now I'm gonna cry! ｡°(°¯᷄◠¯᷅°)°｡

Ch 12

My introvert self is craving to stay home and read to find out the interaction of the MC and ML! I'm looking forward to this chemistry!
