Description

Ye Qiao woke up one day to find herself transmigrated into the role of a secondary character in a popular harem novel. In the novel, whenever the little sister was in trouble, the second senior sister had to help. If the little sister wanted a divine artifact, the second senior sister had to fetch it. If the little sister lacked spiritual roots, the second senior sister had to give hers up. Ye Qiao was fed up. She abandoned her duties and fled down the mountain overnight. She was done being a tool for others. … Her new sect brothers were all great, but Ye Qiao, who knew the plot, realized they were all destined to be lovesick admirers of the novel’s female protagonist. The gloomy and world-weary eldest senior brother was the ultimate love-struck fool who would sacrifice himself for the protagonist. However, since Ye Qiao’s arrival, he no longer seemed depressed or suicidal, but instead constantly yelled at her, “Just try skipping classes again!” The second senior brother was a genius who, unable to break through a bottleneck, developed a heart demon and eventually died during a lightning tribulation. Ye Qiao tentatively suggested, “The way of the Tao is simple. Let go of desires, and you will find strength. Second senior brother, how about we just slack off together?” Second senior brother: “…” That actually made some sense? The third senior brother, a genius in alchemy, was a backup suitor who exhausted himself providing the protagonist with all sorts of elixirs, only to be told, “We are just friends.” After Ye Qiao arrived, his mind was solely focused on alchemy, diligently supplying elixirs to his little sister. The fourth senior brother, born with innate sword skills, ruined his cultivation and destroyed his Dao heart for the protagonist. Ye Qiao seriously brandished a sword and said, “When there are no women in your heart, your sword will move with divine precision. Women will only slow down your sword.” Fourth senior brother looked at the odd little sister: “?” Since Ye Qiao’s arrival, they no longer revolved around the protagonist, causing chaos in the entire sect. The original protagonist: “?” Where is my charm? Why are all these people now revolving around a supporting character?

My Thoughts on I Saved the Entire Sect by Slacking Off

This novel, "I Saved the Entire Sect by Slacking Off," has been quite the ride! It's a blend of xianxia, comedy, and a dash of shoujo, and I found myself chuckling more than a few times. While it's not without its flaws, the sheer audacity of the protagonist makes it a memorable read.

First Impressions

Initially, I was hooked by the promise of a carefree, cunning main character (MC) who uses her modern-day knowledge to shake things up in a traditional sect setting. Ye Qiao, the MC, definitely delivers on that front. Her shamelessness is a superpower, and watching her scheme and slack off her way through cultivation was undeniably entertaining. It's not exactly high literature, but it's a fun, lighthearted escape.

What Works Well

The comedy is definitely the strongest aspect of this novel. Ye Qiao's outrageous personality and her knack for creating chaos are hilarious. Watching her "screw over" her fellow disciples with her pranks and pyramid schemes is a guilty pleasure. The side characters are also a highlight, especially her senior brothers, each with their unique quirks and personalities. The novel also does a good job of establishing a clear moral compass, with righteous cultivators generally staying true to their values, which is a refreshing change of pace.

Areas of Concern

As the story progresses, the initial charm starts to wear off slightly. Ye Qiao's "plot armor" can feel a bit too thick at times, making her seem overpowered. While her cunning is entertaining, there are moments where her successes feel a bit too convenient and less earned. The plot, while decent, can become repetitive, particularly during the sect competition arc. And although the lack of romance isn't necessarily a flaw, it might disappoint readers who enjoy that element in their cultivation stories.

Final Verdict

Despite its flaws, "I Saved the Entire Sect by Slacking Off" is a fun and engaging read, especially if you're looking for a lighthearted xianxia with a chaotic protagonist. The comedy is top-notch, and the side characters add depth to the story. However, be prepared for some repetitive plot elements and a protagonist who occasionally bends the rules of logic. Overall, I'd give it a solid 3.5/5. It's a good choice if you want to switch off your brain and enjoy some lighthearted cultivation shenanigans.
