Ringkasan
Following his father's murder, Wu Ling's mother returned to the life of a courtesan, disguising her young son as a girl to take refuge in the Bamboo Silk House, a women's only sect dedicated to the arts. Now, as his powers awaken, he'll find himself torn between protecting his family and the goals of powerful cultivators who see him as a means to an end.
"Wu Ling, I've accepted a marriage proposal on your behalf," the bewitching Hall Master of the Bamboo Silk House declared. "When you enter the Inner Sect, you'll enter under the name 'Hua Qianhu', fiancee of a young lord of the Liang family."
"Hall Master, that's impossible!" Wu Ling protested. "Even if you ignore my relationship with Meifeng, I might have dressed well enough to hide as a mortal woman but I could never..."
"So you truly didn't realize what you were doing," the Hall Master said, a dark smile on her lips. "Little Ling, you're a natural-born Shapeshifter. I'll teach you what you need to know," she said, her features shifting until she looked like a mirror image of the stunned Wu Ling. "As long as you follow my arrangements and learn my techniques, it isn't impossible for you to reunite with Meifeng..."
"But you should consider Young Lord Liang carefully," the Hall Master added. "His affection for you is genuine. Perhaps, one day, you'll even feel the same for him..."

An interesting take on the xuanhuan genre. I like the fact that not every situation is resolved with fists, without denying the inherently violent nature of a cultivation world. Wu Ling is a protagonist that I grew attached to as the story progressed, eager to see how his dichotomy will play out.
This is a solid story; the main impressive aspect is the regularity of updates. The world building is such that when you have a question about something, it is frequently answered in the next couple of chapters. Wu Ling is a complex character. The side characters each have their distinctive elements, and it seems we will be learning more about them.
I'm planning to follow this series over from Royal Road. This story was fun to read so far and it's good seeing a different side to Xianxia than is normally focused on. I really like the story progression so far and that the characters have to put thought and effort into their achievements. The gender fluidity aspect is well balanced to me but I think the romance sub-plot and love interest(s) are under developed to the point of feeling extraneous. Also, please no tone deaf or token harem. The world is interesting and attracts my attention but could use more depth to build immersion if you're looking to improve. At this point, it often feels like the characters are overwhelming their environment rather than existing in it (a little touch of the 'conversation in an empty, white room' thing). Overall, I'm this story glad it's seen some recognition and really looking forward to seeing how it continues.
