    The first book is kind of a spin-off of the "Bureau of Public Opinion" series. I highly recommend checking out the last set. The strange and unpredictable events Qiangba encounters during his adventures are similar to those in the earlier "Bureau of Public Opinion" books, but even more thrilling and exciting! 👀

    The protagonist starts by joining the Celestial Master sect, and his grandfather is an unfathomable master—this background is terrifying! The character's growth is unique and captivating; while not a traditional horror story, it's incredibly engaging. Highly recommended—a must-see masterpiece! Looking forward to the protagonist's awakening!
