Family Cultivation: My entire family are Villains-Chapter 84: Dare to Speak Up on the Shelf!

It's not sentimental words, it's the daring words.

This is my second book, and I still haven't managed to break through my own limits. The lack of follow-up readership means no promotion, and so here I am, putting it on the shelf like this.

There's a bit of reluctance, sure, but mostly it's a sigh of relief.

Waiting for the data to come in every day, looking at reader feedback, revising the plot outline, setting the pace... and then every Friday, waiting hopefully for a recommendation. It's really anxiety-inducing, so I just went ahead and released it.

Summarizing the readers' comments, there are thoughts on the pacing being too slow, not enough thrilling moments, the plot dragging, suspicions of masochistic tendencies, an overly long revenge arc, unclear romantic developments, and a world view that isn't captivating enough. There are even some blaming the author for being too handsome...

To be honest, if I took the comments too seriously, I really couldn't write at all...

It's a headache when the suggestion to start a new book comes up again and again.

I want to emphasize this: no new books, unless this one completely flops...

Now, let's talk about something else:

The theme of this book is still about family, just that the background has shifted to a high martial arts world.

High martial arts certainly can't be detached from the martial arts world, as you can tell from the names I've chosen, which carry a hint of the martial world spirit.

Of course, it's not just limited to the martial world. There's Confucianism, Dynasties, Sects, Gangs, Families...

My intention in blending these together was, of course, to portray a fascinating and diverse universe.

Then, to slowly unfold the story of how the Hou Family orchestrates their strategies, from vengeance to reaching the pinnacle, unfolding it into a tapestry presented to everyone.

Of course, this is difficult, so when I started this book, I didn't have much confidence in my heart.

As expected, from the start of the book to now, there's been non-stop criticism...

From the opening chapters, complaints about the slow pace, too many toxic elements, a muddled plot, too many characters, the main character leveling up too slowly, urging me to start a new book...

I've heard these words ceaselessly.

If it wasn't for the rounds of recommendations that gave me a bit of confidence, I really would have started a new book already...

Next, I'd like to take a moment to explain my personal thoughts from the first chapter to the current opening, and I'd be truly grateful if you could take the time to hear me out!

Starting with the turmoil in the two states in the opening, what I wanted to create was a complete world; a world fleshed out with everyone having their own schemes; a world where love and relationships are entangled, and each person has their own stance; a world filled with intrigue and every family harboring their own ulterior motives.

And not just to toss out a map, have the protagonist scrap the map, then move on to the next map, and repeat...

Of course, the story should be written like that, but the world should not be like that.

This world, of course, exists because of the protagonist, but the protagonist is not omnipotent, at least, not at the beginning.

There are countless people who could kill him; there are plenty with greater talent; there are even more with higher intelligence than him...

Can today's readers not accept such a protagonist?

Everyone knows that the protagonist is bound to be the strongest, but isn't there a stronger sense of exhilaration in watching such a protagonist climb to the top step by step?

Is that not a more intense satisfaction than killing a person every day, advancing a level every ten days, switching maps every hundred days?

Of course, it's hard to please everyone, and I know that I can't satisfy all. Therefore, I can only earnestly ask everyone:

You can freely express your opinions; I will read them all. But please be kind with your words, and if you really can't stand it, switch to another book. There are many famous and silver-level authors out there.

There's no point in trolling me. Even if you drove me off the site, it would be a trivial matter.

My motto is: unless it's the end of the world, I will never abandon my work.

Even if you don't want to read it, I'll keep updating this book on Qidian until it's complete. If you're dissatisfied, come and fight me...

I've talked too much nonsense, now for the main content:

Some say the pace is slow, and I admit that it's my writing ability that's to blame. There's just too much to write. I feel like without explaining it all, it wouldn't be complete, but explaining everything takes up word count, so I can only ask for everyone's understanding.

My greatest hope is that I can "slowly" write, and you'll slowly read.

(The 'slowly' here is not an excuse for laziness, it's about the rhythm~)

Sorry, but this is where the main content actually starts:

The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.

I'm on my knees asking for support with the initial subscriptions; future recommendations depend on it!

......(Millions of words of sob stories omitted here)

The book will go live tomorrow after twelve noon, with a minimum of five updates guaranteed. Oh, and after going live, I'll return to a normal word count with over 3500+ words per chapter, a minimum of two chapters per day, ensuring a substantial and satisfying read...

Truth be told, I don't have any chapters stored up, so I'm really hustling here...

Based on the follow-up readership, I've set a goal of 1200 for initial subscriptions. For every additional 200 reached, I'll add another chapter, even without stored chapters.

About the whole donation thing, are there really people who would donate to read advanced chapters? I feel like that's more about friends supporting each other.

Alliance Hierarch + five more chapters, 20,000 Jiao coins + one more chapter, silver...

Don't blame me for setting it high; I feel that hope is average at best. I'd be really happy just to get some subscriptions.

Shengjiang, thanking everyone for their support!
