The female lead should get plenty of screen time. Also, I don't want the protagonist to dither or hide their strength and identity. Preferably fantasy or cultivation.

It was hard to keep up the tension. When the male lead first met the female lead, he was incredibly resourceful, with all sorts of skills: murder, arson, poisoning, fabricating charges, and torture. He couldn't hold back, which was really interesting 🤭
The author's introduction states that the male protagonist appears in the modern world as a pawn. I suggest the author leave some foreshadowing; this will create anticipation for later plot developments. Before I reached Thailand, the interactions between the members of the Nine Divisions were honestly quite boring, mainly because the contrast between the male and female leads and the other…
This is a great book, why is the rating so low? Author, keep it up, the rating will come up! (A small suggestion for the author: for daily life, you can refer to "My Wife is from a Thousand Years Ago," for action scenes, you can refer to some urban martial arts novels, focus on domestic themes and Chinese exorcism in the early stages, and if you can maintain the balance later, you can add foreign exorcisms, or you can write it as a side story.)
I've read twenty chapters, so let me share my thoughts. The genre isn't new, and the writing style is a bit lacking, but the author writes with genuine sincerity. I haven't read a book this engaging in a long time. I hope the author keeps going; finishing it is my only wish for you. Keep it up!
So far, there haven't been any major issues with the 30 chapters, so it's worth reading. When I saw the part where the protagonist goes to work, I thought it was going to be a bad read, but it turns out I was just scaring myself. 🤦 Will the male lead continue to work alone, or will he join a modern-day demon-exorcising department?
Well, the writing style of this book isn't as good as some other novels, but it excels in the natural flow of emotions. The author also put in a lot of effort; any mistakes pointed out will be addressed and corrected one by one. I feel like this is definitely going to be popular, so I'm reserving this spot first. 😏😏😏
Finally found a proper time-travel novel on Tomato, and it's even a reverse time-travel story! Amazing! Hoping for ten chapters a day, don't disappoint! No wish-fulfillment elements, no mindless plots, no saintly characters, no dragging on. And it even has a dual narrative structure, awesome! Author, don't care what others say, amazing! Update quickly!
It's quite good, a style rarely seen in Tomato's works. The individual short stories are very enjoyable, but perhaps because it's a new author, the plot transitions aren't as smooth. However, it's considered a high-quality work on Tomato's platform. It's not purely a lighthearted read, so it might filter out some readers. I hope the author can persevere. Perhaps they could also take a look at the Demon Suppression Museum next door for inspiration; that would make their writing more mature.
I usually only read light novels, so it's rare to come across a book that's both exciting and romantic, and also well-written. I haven't finished it yet, but after reading some of the beginnings, I'd give it at least a 9.2. Keep it up, it's great! (♥∀♥)
It's fine, there aren't any major flaws, and the author listens to suggestions. However, the main characters' screen time is a bit limited. It's not an ensemble piece, but a lot of the time is spent depicting the supporting characters. This isn't necessarily bad, but I'd appreciate it if the supporting characters' storylines could be streamlined.
