Ye Chenyi, who had once struggled to get by in the mortal world, secured himself a proper position in the underworld...

The content is currently quite good; the plot is well-structured and doesn't feel chaotic. The protagonist isn't acting foolishly, and the author isn't infatuated. I hope the author will write well and avoid having too many women surrounding the protagonist, and also avoid making the protagonist the sole dominant figure.

The plot is good and doesn't go astray like other wish-fulfillment novels.

The plot isn't much different from what I've seen before, so those who enjoy older storylines might find it worth watching. However, to be honest, even with the protagonist's newfound power, he's still trapped in the complexities of human relationships, unable to break free and completely bound by them. Those who enjoy stories about complex interpersonal relationships, characters being bullied and oppressed, and those who ultimately erupt in anger might enjoy this one.

Very interesting, keep it up, author! After reading the last page, the cold words seemed to come alive, surrounding me and gradually revealing Ye Chenyi's broken figure, Bai Tong's glistening tears radiating her sorrow, and my typing hands... Ah, the author's writing is truly excellent, and this story is truly excellent, but it's so short! I'm really looking forward to it...
