The Yi City arc didn't have to go that hard 😭 wdym we got doomed yaoi tragic triangle gays but it was just a side quest, never to be seen and touched again 😭
The flashbacks are always so long and even though I do eventually enjoy them, I struggle to adjust with not seeing wwx and lwj make googly eyes at each other in the beginnings. Once they hit their stride though, the flashbacks are captivating and pulls you into their own story so well.
I love watching wwx and lwj's relationship grow, even if I'm incredibly frustrated it's taking so long!! I know I'll reap good shit at the end of this slow burn but my GOD!! It's the way you can tell wwx's thought processes change over time the more he's acknowledging lwj's feelings, and his own lingering thoughts reflect the way he's becoming more aware of his own feelings. Every time he has a stray thought about lwj and about how much he wanted to see him at that moment, I want to stab myself in the eye 😭

Dramatic battles, tense political intrigue, unique world building...and is that maybe some romance I'm sensing? These books are not Romantasy but focus primarily on the SFF elements. Romance is a subplot and may not appear until later in the series, but when it does, you won't be disappointed.
