Description
Xu Xingzhi had penned in his original novella: Over the mountains and across the seas, there was a posse of villains. They were clever and cute, they were peculiar and bizarre, they were diligent and conscientious, and they were planning a jailbreak. And then, he transmigrated into this dramatic narrative. The World commanded: Your presence has disrupted the balance of this world. You have to eliminate the villain boss who intends to break out of this cage and take over the world. Xu Xingzhi replied: Sorry, I’m just a salted fish. The World: Don’t worry, the villain is the shidi that you personally doted on throughout his childhood who hangs onto each and every one of your words. Xu Xingzhi: . . . I never wrote such a character setting. Boss with a gentle face: Shixiong, do you prefer this golden chain or this silver one? Take your time to choose, I’ll listen to whatever you say. Xu Xingzhi: . . . I really never wrote such a character setting. This milieu was all as you desired.

My Thoughts on The Villain is Outrageously Beautiful
This novel has been quite a ride, and while I can see why it has its devoted fans, I also understand some of the criticisms leveled against it. "The Villain is Outrageously Beautiful" promised a complex xianxia romance, and it certainly delivered on the complexity, though perhaps not always in the most satisfying way.
First Impressions
Initially, I was hooked by the premise: a transmigration story where the MC has to kill the villain, set against a backdrop of a monster-ridden wasteland. The mysteries surrounding the MC's past and the world itself were intriguing. The yandere ML also initially piqued my interest.
What Works Well
The world-building is undeniably compelling. The "wilderness" setting feels unique and the side characters are crafted with depth, each grappling with their own tragic backstories. I found myself genuinely invested in characters like Zhou Beinan and others caught in the grand tragedy. The author's ability to create sympathy for even morally grey characters is a definite strength. Despite the dark themes, some also found the story enjoyable and praised the plot. The multiple twists also kept me on my toes, constantly rethinking character motivations and relationships. The ending, despite the angst, also delivered a satisfying conclusion.
Areas of Concern
However, the story falters in several areas. The pacing felt uneven, with bursts of exposition followed by drawn-out mysteries. The flashbacks, while intended to reveal the past, often felt disjointed and confusing, even incorporating perspectives the MC couldn't realistically have access to. The ML's actions, particularly early on, can be problematic, with instances of non-consensual acts that might make some readers uncomfortable. Furthermore, the romance felt somewhat forced. The MC's obliviousness can stretch believability, and the dynamic between the main couple didn’t fully convince me.

Final Verdict
"The Villain is Outrageously Beautiful" is a novel with great potential that doesn't quite reach its full potential. It's a rollercoaster of emotions with some major lows. If you're a fan of dark xianxia romances with complex characters and don't mind some potentially triggering content, this might be worth a read. However, be prepared for a bumpy ride with some unresolved issues. Overall, I can see why the rating sits where it does, a solid but flawed 3.9/5.
