The ending was still quite cheeky. This book felt rushed compared to "The Evil Ones," with less exposition. While this isn't a major issue, many major scenes ended abruptly, which was a bit unsettling, like being abruptly jumped to the next episode just when you're about to witness a big scene.
This should be one of the Three Saints series, featuring Li Nie, Xiang Kai, and Wei Ping. It's fantastic!
The novel's plot is absolutely captivating. Unlike many other novels that merely boast, this one is remarkably detailed in its many plot points, making it well worth reading.
I absolutely love this author's male protagonist!!! He's totally my type! I love male protagonists who aren't brainless idiots or overly compassionate.
After finishing this book, I felt it was very similar to "The Borrower of Life," with a rich and coherent plot, and the final twist was quite similar. Personally, I think the storytelling is better than "The King's Soul." Highly recommended!
The protagonist must kill all the Lin family members.
The three books about the earthly life-borrowing person and the journey to the underworld coffin with this geomancer.
Each story in the book is exciting, but they all feel rushed, and the transitions between stories are rather abrupt. Nevertheless, it's still a good book, and the main character's personality is commendable.
The details are well-written, the plot unfolds smoothly without any clichés, and I give it a good review.
I've read two of the author's books in a row; it was so satisfying!
