They skipped the all arc of shizun being a child..
*Spoilers ?*
They even skipped the iconic demon fighting where shi mei was supposed to die
But this time because mo ran voluntered to fight in shi mei's place (knowing he might die)
Chu wanning wouldn't let it slide this time around..
The reason he didn't act the first time to save shi mei was because he really couldn't.. he was on the brink of death himself..
Mo ran on the other hand is his everything, he would die for him.. so he did..
:(
I googled for you :)
Ch.51 (in the middle of the chapter) xu meng will meet xia sinai (chu wanning's name as a child because no one recognised him lmao)
Ch.97 is when shit goes down and chu wanning saves mo ran from death
I don't recommend skipping
The build is really good and the storytelling is very interesting
He does turns back at some point but than shrinks again from 'lack of power' something lack that
Chu wanning will take pills to fix that? But they will worf for short peroid of time
It's an on and off thing ..
But in the epsiode I mentioned (97) It will be the last time..
It won't matter anymore because he is dead..
Of course it's not the end !
Read the novel it's worth it
I undestand where you come from fr
But I think this arc really highlighted the truth to mo ran about chu wanning's true personallity to the point where he can't deny it anymore, thus it's a very important part of the novel
I liked this arc for building up mo ran's fondness for xi sinai (chibi chu wanning)
And when the truth was revealed, at the most painful moment no less, where everything crushed down to the point of no return (chu wanning's death after sacrificing himself for mo ran)
Mo ran will finally understand him
The journey is tough but the reward is satsifying
Conclusion? Mo ran is a dumb husky and chu wanning is a tsundere cat lmao
i wanted him to turn back permanently soon bc i liked chu wanning's cold distant personality and his hints of jealousy when it came to moran, but when he turned into xi sinai i rly like that he's expressing himself openly and u can see how he truly feels more, plus their bonding too which he couldn't do before. when he started crying and spoke abt how lonely he felt it made me so sad, i rly like hearing his honest thoughts, especially abt all the bad things he felt
Yeah you summarised it really good
Both mo ran and chu wanning, as well as other characters are very complicated
Not to the mention the good world building which makes the story very intruging.
There is more than meets the eye, and every twist and turn in the story makes it breath taking and tear jerking.
I like the fact that the personallity are not just 2 dimensional like you descibed at first and there is more layers to them as charcters, which only makes them feel more real and realtable.
I really looked forward to this arc and I am sad to see how messed up and rushed this manwha is turning out to be..
This story deserve more justice and people should stop complaining about the art with their overly high expections of it for real.
ur so real for that tbh. i’m already on book 3 bc i can’t put it down it’s?? so?? good??
i love all their personalities so much, ur right abt what u said abt them not being two dimensional characters bc as time goes on u really genuinely start to get attached to them and love them. i’ve heard so much abt how after volume 7 there’s just straight angst till the end and how everyone is excited (and scared) for that.
also! i’m reading the officials and see that they’re only out till volume 7, but i see a lot of ppl say they’ve already finished the entire novel, it’s too good and i can’t wait so i was wondering if u knew where to read the fan translations or anything after vol 7?
and i thought the art was really good tbh, i’ll be honest i didn’t rly like the art in the first few chapters bc the eyes felt?? copy and pasted into the bg?? if that makes sense, but after that it got really pretty so i don’t see why ppl were complaining abt it. other than them missing huge chunks of arcs from the novel i don’t see what else there is to complain abt.
The art at the begining was realistic which is cool and all, but I didn't like much either because it felt dull and everyone looked the almost the same
It was very blurry I would say..
The art changed more than for sure
But I kinda liked each one in a different way, different artists bring different nuances to the charcacers
Maybe it will be better if more the one artist workd one this story? Who knows
I am glad you like it ! Enjoy reading it :)
I stopped reading halfway through for now because I wanted to see the live action "immortality" and still hope they will find a way to publish it like "meet at you blossom" managed it through by going abroad which is awsome!
Last but not least
I had a lot of trouble finding the rest of the novel when I started but it seems easy now through google
Like this website below

RIGHT i would get confused at the start bc they looked the same, and this is my first xianxia manhua and novel so it was even more confusing icl. i didn't even notice it changed more than twice? after the first artist the rest seemed similar and i rly liked them, yeah i think it would be cool if more than one artist worked on this.
but if it continues i hope they don't exclude anything else bc reading the novel MAN they rly missed sooo many important parts i would've loved to see drawn. i heard of 'immortality' and i can't wait until that releases, i just know it'd be as big as untamed, the story is so good.
thank you so much fr the translation looks good too, i really appreciate all ur help!!
You are more than welcome! :)
Sorry for all the grammar mistakes I made..
The artists changed a lot (you can tell mainly by the eyes and hair)
That's the main reason why this adaption started becoming messy to the point they skipped a whole arc after finding a new artist and returning from hituas..
I hope this will turn out well.
P.S Immortality for sure will be big with the cators they chose for the main cast . Those are some big names
Not to mention, lou yunxi is an amazing actor ("ashes of love" ect.) and just perfect for chu wanning character
I look forward to seeing it one day, hopefully
One thing I didn't understand Chu wannig was turned into child and he crawled with Mo ran body to their sect but this part is different so is it correct
