[Chinese BL novel] I wear it back after becoming an Emperor / 成了武帝的我又穿了回来

Shortly: very good. I really liked it.

It's the epitome of light-hearted and humorous reads.

Short introduction: MC becomes a Wu Emperor in the world of cultivation, he reaches such a level that he can finally connect to his previous world, find the timeline and wear it back. He lived for almost a thousand years with an obsession. In his original world his mother died on her way to MC's school, later he found out that someone hired to hit his mother, but when he wanted revenge he was pushed off the rooftop by the child of his father and his new wife. Now he comes back, but things do not go as planned, he also brought back his opponent who fought with him for hundreds of years and reached the same position as him. Yet he has no time to think about these things, while crossing he was injured and now with almost abolished cultivation he runs fast to save his mother, because the moment he crossed was exactly the day of his mother's death.

The story is basically not that grim, though MC does slowly untie all his heart knots that kept him going for all these years, but there is no real danger to MC, he's OP in a cool way and the story is wrapped in a nice way with a tiny twist at the end.

Although some part are a bit rushed and at other times some characters seem to be forgotten, but still I find it a cool story and an easy read. It's mere 128 chapters, the development is upbeat and changes are great.

ML is basically his "enemy", both had a feud when they first met and from then on they kept fighting, but it wasn't anything serious, but many around considered them as mortal enemies. When they crossed to modern times ML was intact, his cultivation involves physical cultivation, while MC regressed from a thousand years cultivator to a 18 year old kid. Both of them at times act like kids that just toss around, but the situation made ML look at the feelings that kept appearing but he still didn't recognize it before, but now realized that slowly but surely their interactions made him fall in love. Then he confessed to MC and although MC is OP in other fields he is awkward about real feelings, yet same longing and realization was in his own heart too.

The story spoilers is as follows: In the original timeline MC's mother dies and he is pushed down and crosses. At the time of crossing back ML saw a shadow and followed into the channel. This made MC almost abolish his cultivation and crystalized cultivation actually entered this modern world. MC came to the day when his mother dies. His diary which was forged by the child of his father and his new wife was posted and everyone ridiculed him as gay, while principal's lackey asked for MC to quit school. MC managed to save his mother that day and next knew that he will not leave the school but will face his father and his new family who were responsible for the hit and run of his mother. His father is the principal in this school, he got position through marriage to the prominent family. He actually derailed in the first marriage and almost caused the death of MC when he was a child just born. These things MC found in previous time when his mother died. At first he came to school since he longed for his father, but later when witnessed his father on the same roof he was pushed from his heart changed completely. There are several conflicts between him and his father and his lackey in school, slowly he washed his name and exposed his half-brother to public. He came as a champion in the exam as a result, while the new wife was found to be originally a junior (Bai family). Their family is the only one that lacks in IQ in this novel. During this time MC realized that parts of his cultivation were located here and there, so basically because his cultivation was shattered in the tunnel, it crossed at different times to Earth. Because he found that if he won't do something he won't live long, but he had a big plan how to make his mother's life comfortable. On the other hand ML came in contact with the cultivators right away. MC was a bit different, he stumbled upon cultivators accidentally, but from that time people started pestering him from time to time. Since in this world the aura is scarce, no one took MC seriously, since MC is a master of formation and in this world such masters are rare. Anyway it's the usual underestimated me you get faceslap routine, which is fun at times. This way for a period of time MC tried to hide well, first no one took his seriously due to his age, next he appeared next to ML often and ppl thought he's just a gadget, but MC didn't care since he tried to restore his strength, since he had not only his mother, but now had to send ML back. And the thing is they had a great combo, MC is a pure spirit, while ML is a physical cultivator, he works like a purifier, he uses everything for his cultivation and basically gives a pure aura MC needs, so they worked like that, but were mistaked for a couple for the longest of times before becoming one. There are several conflicts within the cultivation world, like involving the schemes of on of the sects that used other people's souls as a base for cultivation, which also touched MC's mother original family. 

What I liked is the connection of MC, who is profound in formations and this world's problem, the lack of aura due to stolen formation, which was moved to another country. You can guess that the formation was moved back and also proved their guess that two worlds are connected and that is why MC could fly there and then they could get back. And the fact that MC's cultivation entered world at different times and a bit changed the history. Anyway I think many things were played well. Despite a bit of naiveness at times and how it was rushed at times, but in general I really-really enjoyed it.

RATE: 5/5. Moder + cultivation can be fun :'D
