The protagonist is powerful but low-key, has seen through the world and retired from it, and runs a small restaurant. Then all sorts of trouble crops up and forces them to step in. A wuxia setting would be best.

Great! This is exactly the kind of invincible martial arts novel I've been looking for 😢 It doesn't have any clichéd plots, the portrayal of the martial arts world and the imperial court is spot-on, the human relationships are written comfortably, and it emphasizes following your heart, so satisfying! The unfolding events after breaking through the void were far different from what I had imagined, and the preceding setup was largely wasted.
It's not ambiguous, and it's invincible. I also like the free and unrestrained style of Song Dynasty poetry. Also, I'd like to ask the author, where's the picture? I hope the author will describe the process when writing about Qinglian and Hongluan next time; a friend of mine wants to see it.
It's good, and most importantly, the main character isn't a womanizer. The story isn't melodramatic or clichéd, and the author is a cute girl 😳😳
Author, hurry up and write! I won't mind if it's not tens of thousands of words. I'll put the book on my bookshelf and wait for your update. Please don't stop updating! As for what others think, don't worry about it. Just write your own story. Good luck!
While some parts are described without enough detail (I'm afraid being accused of padding if I were more detailed), I'm currently enjoying it very much. Having read many books, I now prefer this kind of more relaxed reading style, but that's also why these kinds of books are hard to make popular—after all, being idle can become boring. Good luck to the author!
That's life, not about fawning over every woman you see. It's about going out and encountering women who have been kidnapped and then running away.
I've read the latest chapter, 81, and so far it seems pretty good. It's rare to see Tomato (the author) write another decent new book; I hope the author can continue to work hard and maintain this level of quality.
It's a good read with a lot of meaning. I hope it doesn't have a bad ending. Keep up the good work, author! 🥰
This book is good 🤔. It's invincible yet not mindless. There's no female lead in the beginning, but unfortunately, she appears in the last few chapters. Her character development is decent, and she's not arrogant or domineering. Plus, she only appears for a few chapters. The moment the protagonist returns to his hometown and sees Zheng Ge at the end elevates the book's scope. Overall, it's definitely a good book.
The author writes very well, although there are some minor flaws. I would have liked it even more if the white fox that accompanied the protagonist at the beginning could have been resurrected, because I was initially drawn in by the white fox. It's a bit of a shame, but it's still very good, since not everyone can have a perfect life. The writing is excellent.
