Long Live the Emperor or 皇兄万岁 in mandarin is a good novel so far. I can't comment on anything past chapter forty as it has yet to be released as of me writing this review. I would highly recommend you give it a shot but enter this novel with the knowledge that it uses a lot of references to Buddhism, and Devils. Some concepts are confusing at points even with the help of the translators.Translation Quality is superb. I honestly wouldn't have a clue what was going on in this novel if the translation wasn't so well done. Great job by Stability of Updates I'm going to assume is two a day assuming this gets selected. Story Development is where if I had the option would give it a 4.5 instead of 5 stars as the plot is slow at certain points. Some battles or concepts could have been explained in a single chapter rather than three to five. I personally didn't mind it but I know it probably isn't for everyone. Character Design is where this story excels the most. First off, the main character Xia Ji is phenomenal. He is a transmigrator who isn't rash or stupid in any capacity. Rather Xia Ji uses his head many times throughout what I have read so far. Not saying he is a genius or perfect but at least he thinks cognitively a majority of the time. Xia Ji is cunning, powerful, but also gentle at times. Not to mention his little sister who livens up this story a lot with her pure heart in a world of darkness. World Background is where this story fails heavily so far. Honestly, we know nothing about the world. Only bits and pieces here and there but not much else beyond that. Overall rating: 4.8/5 stars due to the lack of world background which often left me confused as not much has been explained about the world itself yet. Maybe I'm just stupid and missed something though.
