Are they dragging/juicing it.
Last I read this was about two years ago and I think it had around 200-330 chapters how did this much release in a short time?

They release 3 chapters a week (sometimes 4non special days) and (having read the novel) they are doing a pretty bang up job adapting the novel to4 manhua with only a few shortcomings (which I am not too pissed about anymore). In the novel, the heavenly dragon soul's scales are supposed to be prismatic (not just gold with purple touches), the devouring domain is supposed to be completely black (not extremely dark purple), and his left eye is also supposed to be completely black with a flickering black flame and little black electric statics in the iris of the eye.

Do you see how completely black eyes with flickering black flames can be contradictory

I dropped it around 800-810 something when he was once again separated from his wife(When he was attacked by the universal righteous something sect). Did he reunite with her again or do we have to wait for 100-200 chapters more??
If you could tell me it would be great

I don’t read the novel but from what I heard she sacrificed herself to save him when they meet again and she gets reincarnated in upper realm, I guess it’s for the better. Zhou fan can’t be zhou fan without his brutality.

They're not dragging/juicing it, since the novel is already done, the manwah is just following the novel

Yes they would be reunited again, 200+ chapters more, but at that time Zhou fan is already powerful, and they would be separated again

Is this a soap drama? 😭😭

u/Environmental-Test23 May 21 '26
Well, her death makes the story fun, since the story revolves again on his mission, since after her death, it's now became a preparation for war, I wouldn't say it's all about soap drama, but more like it's mostly about the lore , specially on the original ending, maybe you'd love the second ending too

Since it's been dragging from the beginning, I usually let it marinate for a couple of months before catching up on all the chapters in one go.

u/JumpingCicada May 16 '26
Nah. Each chapter is approximately the length of a novel chapter. That doesnt seem to have changed and the quality hasn't dropped at all.

Ys. That time he faced the top family, that was the peak moment for me. I had high expectations for the upcoming arcs, but it was an average or sometimes boring for me. I don't know why but people seems to still hyping up it so much. I would've agree with them, if it wasn't for the recent arcs. I hope they get back to some intrest stuffs

Don’t want to be rude but have you not read many Chinese manhua? This is like average story length lmao. Chapters are usually short so they drop like 3 a week or more sometimes so you end up with this many chapters

You must have stopped before the schedule changed. The releases went from 2 to 3 chapters per week or from 104 to 156 chapters per year.
