Son's crimes are also the parents I guess, shoulda raised him better lol. That being said... if MC's sister or one of his parents did something that goes against the rules/his moral code, I wonder what would happen. His family is pretty much the most important thing to him, so would he stick to his moral code or would he shush it up? Just wondering how far MC is willing to go with hypocrisy if he was in the same position as the Dad of the kid. Or would it just not matter then because he's the strongest here lol? Just curious
ch 345 Abuse of power and murder
Fantasy · XIETIAN
Ngl I'm a bit annoyed at him passing it off as a whim when his attack caused the death of those people. It's one thing to be like you don't care about their lives and it's another to indirectly cause their deaths. And then this hypocrisy of giving them a moment of silence but he really doesn't care is trash behavior, although normally this won't bother me, given the circumstances I can't help but sigh.

Review is when I'm about 160 chapters in. MC transmigrates into a new body where he finds out that he's immortal. Even with his cheat, he takes his time to grow his strength. I really enjoyed this novel. The author's way of describing the setting along with the almost slice-of-lifey storytelling adds a certain depth to the world building you don't see in many novels. I also liked the fact that, in this starting arc, many events take place where you would think a MC, much less an immortal MC, would take part of to gain new opportunities however the author made his character a very careful type and honestly its a breath of fresh air. MC completely ignores these lucky encounters and just cultivates peacefully alone to grow his strength and waits until he gets to a higher level strength before he does anything. He pretty much grinded until he maxed out his level before taking out every boss one by one. Another bit to the storytelling that makes it really engaging is the order of information the author tells you really emphasizes how good they are at the "show dont tell" part of storytelling. The characters were pretty great so far, specifically MC's old friends and his animal pals. The slice of life portions of the story along with the characters age progressions really do a good job of making you care for them, especially so by the end of their life while MC is going strong. I just.... I just wished MC coulda proposed to Zhou Wenxiu 😭😭 or left a kid or something. Oh well. Only thing in the story I was kinda iffy about was his transmigration and how quick he was to accept it. That usually won't be a problem except the transmigration itself was never thought about or at least referenced again. Like the only reason the transmigration plot is used in this novel is to give the MC the cheat (of being immortal). Not saying every single transmigration has to have a reason behind it or anything but usually you would at least have an indication that MC has a different way of thinking than villagers who are born in this world. Other novels even use comedy as a way to bridge this gap (like MC makes a joke in his head that would make sense about a certain situation that is completely normal in this world but not to us). Only thing remotely close to this was a part where MC was humming/singing a song from his previous world. Again, not a problem, its just weirded me out a bit. Anyway cant wait to see how this continues 🙏🏽
