Translated stories I like enough to recommend. I review them so expect some spoilers (I try not to spoil major events.)
(Please read the novels on the original translator's site which can be found on novelupdates!)
You think too much, cultivation is not like this...
When Kong Hou stepped on the path to cultivation, she learned that all xianxia stories are full of lies.
A relaxed cultivation story.
*Kong Hou: a traditional musical instrument like a harp. Also the protagonist's name.
Thoughts:
Unexpectedly, I liked this novel.
I personally don't like reading xianxia, which is ironic since the first chinese novel I read was xianxia, but I really enjoyed this one!
(btw the definitions of wuxia, xianxia, and xuanhuan based on novelupdates)

It is the same as other stories in the genre wherein the protagonists are OP, very lucky, can defeat higher levels, gorgeous, etc., however what differs are their personalities.
There is no cliche plot where disciples scheme against each other. Sure they may have miscommunications, but they prioritize peace amongst all (atleast in FL's sect.)
I really like FL's sect because they focus on the attitude rather than talent. They actually bond with one another and wouldn't get jealous of a fellow disciple since every single one of them is spoiled. Even other sects are jealous how carefree her sect's disciples are.
I also appreciate the fact that it doesn't have the everyone-is-evil-but-the-leads trope. Most, if not all, characters are lovable.
Regarding the protagonists, they are such a fun couple to read! They first met when FL was 16 and ML 300+, became a couple when FL was 18, then married when FL was probably 120+ (under some circumstances) and ML still 300+.
I mean age doesn't really matter in this world, but I appreciate the fact that FL wasn't a 16 year old marrying a 300+ year old. That would be very disturbing.

I like the fact that ML and FL got to know each other before falling in love. Meaning = the slowest of all the burns (slow burn).
I love the scenes where ML acts cute for FL. It is cute! They are cute. FL also has some beliefs that I can relate to.
The most lighthearted novel I have read of the author's. Try it! It is very funny.
