It's a good read. I've read several books of this type, and this is one of only two I'm still reading. Sometimes I think Ah Chao is a bit of a jerk and I don't think he's very capable, but overall it's still pretty good. Keep up the good work, author!
It reminded me of many Hong Kong horror movies, some of which I haven't seen yet. The Cantonese dialogue took a little getting used to, but it didn't affect reading! Overall, it was okay!
It's alright, but the main character seems to be from another time, how come I don't know anything about horror movie plots?
Some writers of Hong Kong dramas have a strong AI feel to them; perhaps using the same model, some supporting characters are just tools, while others are just tools for the main characters. This article belongs to the latter. The writing is fluent and the structure is complete.
The early episodes featured a lot of Cantonese dialogue, and the cultivation levels in Hong Kong variety shows weren't clearly defined; we mainly saw skills without any specific techniques or progression. Also, the ending of "Nightly Obsession" didn't perfectly resolve some plot holes. Overall, it's quite good, and most of the plot holes from Hong Kong variety shows are clearly resolved.
The beginning was a bit stiff, probably because the author lacked experience. It improved later, becoming smoother and more engaging. The plot points were also better integrated.
The writing is gentle and delicate, and the plot is well-paced and engaging—definitely a great book and a great author.
The plot is okay, but the Cantonese audio is difficult to watch.
The rating isn't high, but the quality is decent. The author seems quite familiar with early Hong Kong horror films; the plot unfolds in a series of twists and turns, though the story itself is rather brief.
It's innovative, retaining the flavor of classic Hong Kong films while also offering its own unique and exciting elements.
