Description
Ever since his youth, Qi Zhaoxi had been a wanderer of the Jianghu [1] , as well as a secret member of a demonic sect. Many years had passed, and given his skills, he would be completely capable of self-preservation as long as he tried. Yet, even before reaching 30 years of age, he wanted nothing other than to retire and go into seclusion. But that changed the very day he met Jiang Li. “Within the Jianghu, battles ensue between sects, while the blades of good and evil collide. No places exist for humans to drink in peace, while places abound for bones to be laid to rest in peace. Fame is born from nothing but aggression and ambition, while grudges borne in gratitude and love are merely born from rivers of selfish desire. I’ve seen enough scenery [2] to find that all mountains and rivers look the same. I’d even thought about tossing aside this mortal realm, and putting an end to it all. That was because I hadn’t met you yet.” —- In short: Before embracing a blade, brace yourself for injury. —- Main Couple: A feigned master-disciple relationship. Qi Zhaoxi (top; Jianghu ‘master’ who wants nothing but to retire) x Jiang Li (bottom; witty, cool and socially-isolated ‘disciple’) 1v1, happy ending. —————————————————————— Translation notes for the summary in the existing fan translation: References: 张梓洁[Zhang Zijie] .

My Thoughts on Huairen
"Huairen" promised a journey into ancient China, filled with martial arts, assassins, and a sweet romance. As I dove in, I wasn't disappointed, though I did find some elements stronger than others.
First Impressions
The initial draw for me was the blend of wuxia and yaoi, a combination I find particularly appealing. The premise of a lazy protagonist and a doting love interest also piqued my interest. I was ready for an adventure, and "Huairen" certainly delivered.
What Works Well
The writing style is definitely a highlight. It's elegant and poetic, with subtle nuances that add depth to the story. I especially appreciated how the author incorporates literary references to ancient poems, enriching the world-building and character development. The relationship between Qi Zhaoxi and Jiang Li is also a bright spot. It's a sweet and heartwarming dynamic that provides a comforting balance to the action and intrigue. I found myself enjoying their interactions and the way their bond developed.
Areas of Concern
While the writing style is beautiful, some readers may find the plot less compelling. While I found it intriguing and unique enough, it's true that it might not be the most exciting or fast-paced story out there. If you're looking for constant action and suspense, this might not be the novel for you.
Final Verdict
Overall, I enjoyed "Huairen". The beautiful writing style, sweet romance, and unique blend of genres make it a worthwhile read. While the plot may not be the most thrilling, the characters and their interactions are engaging enough to keep you invested. If you appreciate elegant prose, subtle nuances, and a heartwarming love story, I recommend giving "Huairen" a try.
