Description

After her rebirth, Sui An inexplicably obtained a spatial System. From it, she learned that she was a cannon fodder female supporting character, destined to fall in love with the male lead and die because of him. And the female lead was none other than her Shizun, Tan Yun. The same Shizun who had always protected and doted on her, yet because of the male lead, came to despise and abandon her. In the end, she locked Sui An in a water prison and forgot about her. By the time she remembered, Sui An had already become a cold corpse. System: Host, follow the script customized by the System. Collect “Good Fortune Qi” and you’ll have a chance to defy fate and change your destiny. Sui An gritted her teeth: Fine. I’m going to stage a comeback. And so – When Tan Yun’s old ailment flared up and she was captured by villains: “The secret manual or your Shizun. Choose one.” She sneered. Of course I’ll choose the manual! System: Save the female lead. Sui An (pained): …I choose my Shizun. Later, Tan Yun lay motionless, her body covered in frost, with only a faint breath lingering. She watched on coldly. She won’t die anyway. System: Please alleviate the female lead’s suffering. Sui An could only warm her, full of reluctance. Finally, Sui An injured the male lead. His powerful family stormed her sect, brimming with killing intent, demanding Tan Yun to cripple her cultivation. Among her sect-mates, there was no shortage of those who agreed in order to save their own skins. Just as she thought her fate had returned to its starting point, Tan Yun unhesitatingly pointed her sword at them: “How about I cripple all of you first!” Sui An was stunned by Tan Yun’s actions: “System, what kind of script did you customize for me? Why have the female lead and male lead turned against each other?” System: Ever heard of a yuri script?

Shizun, My Script is Wrong (Rebirth) Review & Spoilers - Novel Translator

My Thoughts on Shizun, My Script is Wrong (Rebirth)

"Shizun, My Script is Wrong (Rebirth)" promised a captivating blend of xianxia, yuri, and a twist on the typical 'rebirth' trope. As a sucker for female-led cultivation stories, I dove in with high hopes. While the novel has its charms, I found myself wrestling with a few aspects that kept me from fully embracing it.

First Impressions

The premise is undeniably intriguing: a protagonist armed with a system, trying to rewrite her tragic fate. The initial chapters hooked me with the promise of a strong female lead navigating a treacherous world and forging a deep connection with her cold, aloof Shizun. The blend of action, alchemy, and ancient settings painted a vivid picture.

What Works Well

The system is a definite highlight. Instead of being a nagging presence, it genuinely assists the MC, providing helpful recipes and information. This supportive system adds a layer of depth to the alchemy aspects of the story, making it more engaging than a simple power-up mechanic. I also appreciated the glimpses of the older, seemingly kind, alchemy master. Characters like that can add much-needed warmth to stories like these.

Areas of Concern

My biggest issue lies with some of the character decisions. I struggled with the MC's choices, particularly her willingness to prioritize a potentially dangerous demonic beast over the safety of others. This felt contradictory to her supposed goal of changing her fate for the better. The lack of clear communication between the MC and her Shizun also frustrated me. Keeping secrets, especially when it comes to matters of safety and trust, can quickly erode the foundation of any relationship, even a master-disciple one. I also found some of the side characters to be suspiciously vague, which, instead of building intrigue, felt more like a frustrating tease.

Final Verdict

"Shizun, My Script is Wrong (Rebirth)" has the potential to be a truly great novel. The foundation is there: a compelling premise, a helpful system, and a captivating world. However, some questionable character decisions and a reliance on familiar tropes hold it back. I'm cautiously optimistic that the story will improve as the translation progresses, but for now, I'm sitting on the fence with a rating of 3.5/5.
