    This urban fantasy novel was so enjoyable! No system; the protagonist debuts purely through his own strength, taking down martial arts masters and mercenary kings as soon as he descends the mountain. He draws circles around the other powerful figures, telling them to stay inside and not come out—anyone who steps out will be in trouble. It reminded me of Journey to the West, where Sun Wukong draws circles around his master, haha. But those powerful figures didn't listen and stepped out of the circles. Guess what happened? Read the first chapter to find out, and you'll be hooked! This novel is currently complete and can be read in one go.

In the end, she held a gun to her own mother's head and wanted to kill the entire Shen family. The two female leads killing each other is too cruel!

    It's an urban fantasy novel, primarily focusing on fighting off a demonic invasion of Earth. The protagonist is incredibly powerful. I wrote it myself, so I'm hoping for some support and traffic, even just a word of encouragement from a passerby would be a huge boost. It's already a complete flop.

    Reader note

    The first book is truly excellent, provided you skip the first dozen or so chapters – skipping the initial climax will make it incredibly enjoyable. The second book is, needless to say, non-toxic; those who haven't read it can definitely give it a try. The third is a new book; the beginning is good, but I don't recommend reading it yet. I suggest waiting at least six months before reading a newly written book.
