Recommend Books with Principled Protagonists. A Little Too Compassionate Is Fine
Modern novels always go out of their way to avoid making the protagonist a saint, preferring to portray them as petty or villainous. I want to read about a protagonist who is chivalrous and courageous, clearly distinguishes good from evil, understands right from wrong, and helps others within their means.

Good book, I like books that aren't verbose. However, it would be better if the martial arts characters had some martial arts moves added, and the Taoist characters with magic would be even more interesting. Otherwise, it just feels like there's only the realm of cultivation and nothing else, making the fights unexciting. It got increasingly bland and uninteresting later on.
Well written, with meticulous and rich descriptions. What would normally be a single sentence or paragraph is expanded into a chapter or even two by a skilled author. This not only allows readers to experience the inexplicable psychological journey of a seemingly random character (as seen in chapters 429 and 430), but also significantly extends the lifespan of the work – truly excellent!
It's alright, not bad. Before reading, I checked some reviews and found some people saying there was too much slice-of-life content, but isn't that what slice-of-life is all about? Why does it have to include several chapters of fighting? Overall, it's okay, but the little fox is a plus.
Come, author, repeat after me: I solemnly swear: From today onward, I will never stop updating. I will not watch dramas, travel, or get sick. I will not play games or write filler articles. I will be strictly self-disciplined, cherish time like gold, be indomitable, strive hard, pursue excellence, strive for brilliance, find joy in writing, be tempered into steel, and be worthy of my readers…
Keep up the good work, author! 💪 Great writing!
There are many other aspects to consider: writing style, plot, pacing, and the protagonist's character development—all important criteria for readers. However, having read over 200 chapters, the most impactful aspect for me is the protagonist's characterization. The protagonist is too flat, like a camera recording the entire story; he's merely a tool, failing to showcase his personal charm.
The influence of the novel *Snow in the Sky* is clearly visible, but I prefer the writing style of this book. Firstly, I don't like the group portraits in *Snow in the Sky*, and secondly, the writing style in *Snow in the Sky* is haphazard and awkward, with various poems used inappropriately, making it seem literary but…
How many chapters have passed already, and his fifth-rank strength hasn't improved at all?
The writing is good and the plot is exciting, but the pace of advancement to the fifth rank of Immortal Spirit Root needs to be slowed down. I hope the author updates quickly, and this book will be very successful.
Hello, I am the father of the child on this account. My child was diagnosed with severe depression two days ago. I just learned that he has been reading here for a long time, and his symptoms have relapsed multiple times. At first, his symptoms improved a lot, and I was really happy. But then one day, he suddenly picked up a knife and tried to commit suicide.
