Synopsis

[Supernatural resurgence + nonhuman protagonist + no female lead + evil gods]

Note: This is not a livestream story, a wish-fulfillment power fantasy, or a brainless invincible-protagonist story. Feel free to ship any pairings, though (doge). It leans a little toward two male leads, but not much, and has an everyone-loves-the-protagonist vibe. If that bothers you, please move along.

The worlds of ghosts and humans were once clearly divided, yin and yang keeping each other in balance.

But as time passed, the evil gods from beyond began to encroach, blurring the boundary between the human world and the spirit realm. The balance gradually broke, and all kinds of supernatural incidents began happening one after another in the human world. In the future, the human world and the spirit realm would gradually collide and merge.

To become stronger, a supernatural being named Xue Zhou left the spirit realm for the human world, disguising himself as a human and studying human emotions.

But his high school life, which should have been peaceful, changed after his classmates got themselves killed by visiting a haunted site. Xue Zhou had hoped to live an ordinary human life, but was forced to get caught up in a string of events tied to the evil gods' plans.

“Evil gods show mercy to no one. Don’t trust them. All they can bring to the world is despair.”

“I’m not an evil god. Besides, I hate evil gods most of all.”

[Supernatural being ranks: Spirit, Vengeful Spirit, Vicious Ghost, Calamity, Lord of Calamity]

[Cursed item ranks: Human (equivalent to Vengeful Spirit), Earth (equivalent to Vicious Ghost), Heaven (equivalent to Calamity)]

[The protagonist's titles, still being updated: Red Moon Ghost Lord (given by humans), Lord of the Corpse Mountain (given by supernatural beings), God Xue (given by his high school classmates), Brother Taotie (given by the Luo Wang organization), God of Slaughter (given by the Disciples' Church), Original Red Moon (what the evil gods call him)]

Xue Zhou: Thanks so much for coming up with all these names for me.

No Female Lead!! Truly No Female Lead, No Romance, Read Carefully!!

Don’t recommend ongoing stories with heroines. If a story isn’t finished and doesn’t say it has no heroine, ask the author whether there is one first. For "I Became Invincible After Rejecting the System", the author said it has one heroine, so absolutely do not recommend it. The requester really will get mad.

The story is good, and the writing is decent. The protagonist is an evil lawful being, not a saint. At least as a bookworm of over 10 years, I found it enjoyable.

This book is really good, and it's one of the few weird novels I've been able to finish reading. Plus, the title is quite novel. I personally find the male lead and the second male lead a really good couple. ⊙_⊙

It's so beautiful!!! I swear on... Uh... On the divinity of the great, supreme, holy, and flawless Flower Goddess Jin Jin La of the Flower Fairy Kingdom, the brave and kind former Flower Fairy Magician Angel, who embodies love, beauty, and wisdom, and the personal dignity of the handsome, charming, and universally admired Prince Kukuru of the Flower Fairy Kingdom, who brings flat tires to cars.

Good! I really like the male lead's personality, and he doesn't have any cheat codes (he himself is probably the biggest cheat code). The plot, world view, and setting are all very good! There are many characters, but basically no two have the same personality (I really like Su Chen), but I think Lin Xiao (the male lead Xue Zhou's deskmate) is the most outstanding character so far.

It's a great read, the characters are very well-developed, and each storyline is complete. However, I personally feel that it lacks the overall supernatural and suspenseful feel; it's more like a heartwarming monster-fighting story (? What's with the heartwarming part? How did I even come up with that description?!).

This book is simply amazing! Every character is so well-developed, especially Xue Zhou. The author foreshadowed Xue Zhou's identity very early on, and he always filled in the plot holes. Xue Zhou is both the Red Moon Ghost Lord and the Red Moon himself. But in my heart, Xue Zhou was just someone who wanted an ordinary life. However, his destiny was to become a red moon in the sky.

The horror atmosphere in this book is excellent! I hope the future plot will be just as good, and I hope the author can unleash their imagination and write even better and more surprising plot twists! Author, keep up the good work! The protagonist is invincible, in the style of One-Punch Man.

Wow, this is really good! 🥰 Keep up the good work, author! I really like Xue Zhou's cunning nature, which is disguised in human skin, and he's also low-key and doesn't talk much. The cast is still classic: a powerful non-human protagonist and a goofy, highly gifted human. I'm a little curious about their final fate.

It's amazing! I started reading because the synopsis sounded fun, but it's truly a masterpiece! I'm totally shipping Xue Zhou and Lin Xiao! So incredibly sweet! The author's writing is also excellent, though the angst made me want to cry. Like the author himself said, it's influenced by the Dragon Clan and Lord of Mysteries, and some parts are a bit similar to those two works, but it's still so…
