After watching "The Return of Evil Thoughts", I think it is the most unique protagonist setting among online novels in the past two years. Lu Chen is not a reborn person in the traditional sense. He has no system, no grandfather, and even no complete self. In his previous life, in order to pursue the "flawless Taoist mind", he personally cut off his own evil thoughts - greed, anger, ignorance, love and hatred, and stripped away all things considered "impure". The result? He became weaker. Become hesitant, kind, indecisive. If others plot against him, he forgives; if others harm him, he tolerates it. Finally, he was tied to the altar by his fellow disciples and engulfed in flames. Before he died, the evil thoughts that he had killed said the last words in his ear: "Look, without us, you would have died so useless." In this life, the evil thoughts came back and shared the same body with him. It turns the "protagonist becomes stronger" core of a traditional fantasy rebirth novel into something more profound - self-acceptance. What Lu Chen has to face is not only the pursuit of the sect and the threat of the altar, but also a more fundamental question: is he willing to accept the violent, murderous, and imperfect version of himself? Lu Chen had evil thoughts and wanted to kill everyone, but Lu Chen tried his best to suppress them. The two of them fight and quarrel with each other in the same body, and neither one can live without the other. Until one day, Yin Yue appeared. She is the heir of Yaowang Valley, and left voluntarily because she longed for freedom. She was the only one who saw through Lu Chen's secret, and the only one who said to evil thoughts, "You must be working hard too." The evil thoughts were silenced for the first time. At that moment, I was thinking: Maybe true strength is not to cut off something, but to accept all of yourself. In the previous life, he had evil thoughts and was burned to death. The evil thoughts in this life come back and share the same body. He shouted kill, I shouted stop. Until the altar was lit for me again - this time, I didn't shout stop. He cut off his evil thoughts and wanted to become a perfect monk. As a result, he was tied to the altar by his fellow disciples.
