    These two are my two favorite books I've read recently. Although both are still being serialized, with one on hiatus, they're episodic, so it doesn't affect the reading experience. This is truly the first time I've read a novel where live-streamed variety shows in modern times are possible, with multiple people dying in a single episode, and it's even legal! The first book not only features live fortune-telling but also participation in a horror variety show—a real, live broadcast where people die. The show is incredibly unique, with all sorts of bizarre and terrifying places, and someone dies in every episode. The second book is about a powerful figure from the ancient Tianji Sect who travels to the modern era and does live fortune-telling. This one is more grounded in current events; most things that happen online get a satisfying resolution here—truly revenge for every wrong done.

    The first book is a sweet and slightly mystical romance novel, super good, super sweet, and very exciting—highly recommended! The story is engaging, the plot is tight and fast-paced, the female lead is adored by everyone, and the relationship between the male and female leads is straightforward and mutual. The second book has a fresh and unique theme, is funny yet heartwarming, very good, and highly recommended! The female lead is innocent and cute, with a powerful background—half of the underworld belongs to her family. She is the male lead's salvation and light. The male lead is gentle and doting, cherishes her deeply, and has no undesirable romantic entanglements.

    I highly recommend this book! The female lead is reborn into the body of a wealthy heiress and seeks revenge along two parallel storylines. She's not a saint and even has a third eye. The ghost-catching parts are exciting, the second male lead's parts are hilarious, and the male lead is aloof and arrogant. Sisters, please go read it!

The female lead is skilled at both ghost-catching and fortune-telling, and everyone has connections to her. Her eldest son, who happens to be a bonus, becomes her little fanboy. The second one is about a metaphysical master who fails his tribulation and transmigrates into the body of a vicious mother. She experiences a painless motherhood and gains a smart child for free. The female lead even does fortune-telling live streams. Both have romantic partners.
