Hua Hua You Long is a manhua based on a novel with the same name and it portrays a bittersweet relationship between a beautiful cold-blooded Emperor and a strong-willed bandit.
The story begins with Emperor Jing using his extraordinary beauty to disguise himself as a woman to seduce Lu Cang in order to punish him for his recent village raids. When a terrified Lu Cang realizes that there is a man in his room instead of a pretty maiden, it is too late.
The most impressive fact about this manhua is the seme/uke portrayal. The seme is beautiful and dignified while the uke has manlier features, but when it comes to top and bottoming
Jing’s superiority is absolute though his depravity can be irritating because it creates too much pointless sex.
Characters: Jing: A sadistic beautiful beast who uses every method possible to keep his toy by his side.He doesn’t poetize his desire and is manipulative and ruthless to the point of marking Lu Cang’s body with his imperial seal.
Lu Cang: A bandit who according to Jing requires a special treatment. He is bitter and is desperate to escape from Jing’s clutches.
Relationship:
Their relationship is clichéd yet complicated. Lu Cang
doesn’t enjoy Jing’s forcefulness. His sadistic dominance doesn’t turn Lu Cang on and although responsive time to time, he is unwilling. Jing on the other hand tries to be softer but his possessive nature refuses to let go and creates a frustrating defective cycle.
Smut:
Hardcore and uncensored. Be prepared.
Art:
Art is elegant and expressive and the subtle way that the story is hidden beneath is intriguing.
Conclusion:
This manhua is highly recommended if you are looking for gorgeous men, long hair and explicit sex and despite all plot holes, it is an enjoyable read.
