    Reader note

    I highly recommend this unconventional fantasy novel. It's packed with laughs from beginning to end, with all the humor stemming from the protagonist's meticulously planned schemes and unexpected victories. He uses four different personas to outwit various cultivators. The protagonist is ruthless and self-serving, mercilessly seizing treasures and setting traps. If you can't handle a brutal plot or just want a lighthearted slice-of-life story, proceed with caution. A heads-up: the first two chapters are a bit long with setup, and the fifth chapter kicks off a series of infamous traps and schemes. The entire 400,000-word novel is a constant whirlwind of plot twists. [Laughing emoji]
