Description
A small child turned to face a cold faced handsome man and asked a few questions. “My mother is dead. Did you kill her? She said she would only die in my father’s hands. So are you my father?” Wu Hanyu fell silent for a moment before he answered, “I didn’t kill her.” The little child, named Wu Li, nodded with disappointment. She thought she could finally meet her father for once. She had never met her father, but her mother said that her father was the most handsome man in the world. So when she saw this handsome man, she thought he was her father. What a pity he was not. However, he took her with him to his own sect and dumped her on some random disciple to take care of her. The chosen disciple: ??? Wu Hanyu, the sect leader of the Nanya Clan, decided to take in a little child as his first disciple after 300 hundred years of cultivating! Is the child a relative or something? But who knew that the little dumpling started to develop into a little beauty several years later? Cultivation Master x Disciple (Father and Daughter)

My Thoughts on To Be One’s Teacher
First Impressions
"To Be One's Teacher" definitely throws you into the deep end. The premise alone, with its master-disciple relationship and the added complexities of xianxia cultivation, is already a lot to unpack. Then you realize the tags include that particular taboo, and well, it's clear this isn't your average fluffy romance. My initial reaction was a mix of intrigue and hesitation. Could the story balance the potentially problematic elements with compelling character development and world-building?
What Works Well
Despite my initial reservations, I found myself surprisingly drawn to the core relationship between the master and disciple outside of the more explicit scenes. There's a certain sweetness and care woven into their interactions, a genuine connection that transcends the power dynamics and... other stuff. The author does a commendable job of portraying the characters as individuals with their own vulnerabilities and desires, even within the constraints of the genre. If you can look past the more controversial aspects, there is a compelling narrative about growth, responsibility, and finding connection in unexpected places.
Areas of Concern
Okay, let's address the elephant in the room. The inclusion of certain taboo themes is undoubtedly a major sticking point, and it's understandable that it would deter many readers. I personally found it distracting at times, overshadowing the potential for a more nuanced exploration of the characters' relationship. While some might appreciate the explicit content, I felt it often detracted from the overall narrative and character development. It's a delicate balance, and in my opinion, the story doesn't always strike it successfully. If you are sensitive to incest or uncomfortable with R-18 content, this is definitely not the novel for you.
Final Verdict
"To Be One's Teacher" is a complicated novel. It has moments of genuine sweetness and compelling character interaction, but it's also weighed down by potentially problematic elements. If you can overlook the controversial aspects, you might find a surprisingly wholesome story about connection and growth. However, approach with caution and be aware of the content warnings. Ultimately, whether or not you enjoy this novel will depend heavily on your personal preferences and tolerance for taboo themes.
