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.

Hidden-Powerhouse Cultivating Heroine in a Realistic Story; Reborn Hero Transmigrates into a Book and Clings to Her
The gorgeous female lead is overpowered from her very first appearance. It can be a transmigrate into a book story where the current male lead is a tragic villain in the original novel, handsome and strong but doomed to suffer. She falls in love at first sight, captivated by his looks. After he is reborn, he clings to her for dear life. Sweet romance, one couple, rebirth, transmigrate into a book.
Are There Any Novels Where the Protagonist Is a Fox Spirit or Nine-Tailed Fox?
The protagonist transmigrates as a fox demon or a nine-tailed fox and has a System. Preferably no female lead; I like satisfying power fantasies.

Water Melody - Thoughts on Viewing a Strange Book The other day, while idly flipping through a book, I suddenly came across the Nine-Tailed Fox. It should be a top-tier item, but its humble origins are rare. Indeed, its exterior is simple, yet it conceals a grand and opulent interior.
It feels like watching a localized tokusatsu (special effects) series, interspersed with slice-of-life episodic segments, but with a clear theme, a boss, and elements of I Ching (the Book of Changes). The author's writing is excellent, and they demonstrate a deep understanding of I Ching principles.
Can you believe you can learn something from reading novels? This book is exactly that. It has both the everyday banter between the main characters and heartwarming scenes. I hope the author doesn't ruin the ending; as long as it doesn't, I'll continue to support the author!
After finishing each chapter, I felt like I'd watched another episode. It didn't feel like reading a novel; it was more like watching a slice-of-life anime, which was really fun 😄
This novel, based on ancient Chinese Feng Shui theory combined with the Six Lines divination method, uses a series of interconnected short stories to develop its characters. The character portrayals are quite successful; the protagonist doesn't have a saintly heart and truly fulfills the duties of a Feng Shui master: doing one's best and leaving the rest to fate.
It's a really good novel. To be honest, I was amazed that it could perfectly integrate the I Ching into a secular novel (rather than a supernatural or horror novel). And I'm already looking forward to it being adapted into a comic book and a film/TV series. Actually, I think labeling it as "urban romance" or "pure love" would probably attract more viewers.
This book is more like a collection of short stories, with the protagonist being an observer who strings together the various tales. The conflicts don't revolve around him, but rather around the characters in each segment. Rather than Ji Changfeng being the protagonist, it's more accurate to say that these fortune tellers are the main characters, a point highlighted in the synopsis.
Each of these endings feels a little familiar, like the questions Jade asks at the end of each episode of Jackie Chan Adventures. It's very well written! 👍
This is the most humane and down-to-earth online novel I've ever read, bar none. From the grand themes of heroes and heroines to the local customs and traditions of everyday life, everything is expressed with calm yet infectious language. It introduces traditional Chinese culture and folk food culture, promotes the concept of harmonious coexistence between humanity and nature, and conveys the…
It's visually appealing, and the interactions between the male and female leads are very sweet, but there's a pervasive sense of suspense and a hint of angst about lifespan. If the author dares to include any angst, I wouldn't mind sending him a knife.
