1. 1 道 The Taoist Exorcist 道门驱邪人 Peeing into the Wind and Soaking Myself迎风尿一身Mystery768k WordsCompleted Where there is evil under heaven, there are all manner of wicked things, and so there are Daoist exorcists. He travels between heaven and earth, yin and yang. He ventures deep into the hundred thousand mountains of Miao territory and far away to the borders of the southern seas. Head-dropping curses, gu raising, black magic, and all the world's fiends and spirits of darkness. He has exorcised countless demons and ghosts, only to discover in the end that nothing is more evil than the human heart. 2.6kReads9.1Score395Shelves

   The first four books are all in the Li Changsheng series, and they have the most female readers' comments among the male-oriented novels I've read on Tomato. The author really did a great job creating Li Changsheng—a domineering, decisive, and secretly passionate character who loves entrapment and law enforcement. He's very charismatic, and the writing style is humorous. There's no romance or ambiguity. Aside from the zombie queen, Qing, who has a slight romantic subplot (resurrecting his wife), the other supporting characters have no romantic relationships. The Taoist priest Changsheng has focused on exorcising evil spirits for over two thousand years. The last book is one I've been reading recently; it's hilarious. In short, the protagonist, Fu Yan, has a unique personality and is quite a talent.

   The female protagonist has no romantic partner, a cheat-like advantage, and is involved in the supernatural and eerie worlds. She believes in never compromising herself and enjoys a satisfying read. Before transmigrating, she lived in a world where humans and supernatural beings coexisted. Later, she was accidentally discovered and eaten by her supernatural mother. She then transmigrated to a parallel world and became the real heiress in a story of two fake heiresses. By reviewing the real heiress's memories, she decided not to compromise herself and directly slapped her mentally unstable parents, brother, and the fake heiress. The female protagonist has a slightly crazy personality; she will never use words if she can use her hands, and when she does, she will leave people speechless.

    1. No romantic pairing: The protagonist, after graduating from university, can't find a proper job and becomes a sleep tester in a haunted house. He starts by resolving the grievances of ghosts, one by one they come and go. After hundreds of chapters, he only meets people by chance. The humor is genuinely funny, but the story is set in Chongqing, with some references to Nantong. 2. No romantic pairing: When the protagonist was a child, he encountered a weasel named Baiyue and mistook it for a request for a title. He then reversed the request and formed an inextricable bond with Huang Tianci. The first two volumes are quite scary, but it gets more fun after that. Ba Liang is really funny, though a bit sleazy. Grandpa Tianci is also really nice. 3. The duality of no romantic pairing and romantic pairing: if you think they are, then they are. Everyone in the martial arts world thinks Li Po and Ye Yang are a couple, but Li Po himself doesn't admit it. The Liangjie Hall is full of beauties, but everyone is leading the way in shipping them. There are also people who like Ye Yang, but no one likes Li Po because Li Po is terrifyingly straight [facepalm]. The supernatural setting is also quite interesting, but the author's descriptions of some ghosts are rather one-dimensional. No matter what kind of ghost it is, he likes to sneer, which is quite speechless. The story was pretty good, but it fell a bit short in the later stages.

    This one is slightly scary. The female lead makes horror games. It's very good. There's no romantic pairing and no stupid supporting characters.

    One of my favorite supernatural novels! The plot is fast-paced and logical! The main character's personality is distinct and well-developed! There are no idiotic villains! The male lead is intelligent and not a saint! I think this rating is too low; apart from being a bit short, it has no other flaws! However, the male lead is initially on the human side, but will later switch to the ghost/deity side!
