   It's incredibly good, judging by my reading time. The protagonist is a member of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion and has a system. The synopsis explains everything. It's an unconventional "power fantasy" novel; the early parts are side quests, only entering the main storyline later. It gets better as you read on. (If you don't like it, you can exit in the upper left corner, but please don't leave a negative review.) This book isn't just about killing and ruthless action. The protagonist is a pleasure-seeker. If there were a Star God in this world, he would definitely belong to the pleasure faction (not the tavern type, but more like an older generation of pleasure-seeking travelers). This is just my personal opinion.

    I think these three books fit the titles quite well. The first one features a protagonist picked up by Fatty Wang on the road, who later joins the Iron Triangle in tomb raiding. Changbai Mountain can't hold Wang Xiaoying, nor can it hold the person in the book. The protagonist is Wan Nu Wang. The second book features a protagonist waiting for Xiao Ge outside the Bronze Gate. The protagonist is Wang Mo Chi, a member of the Zhang family (I don't know if he's still a member of the Wang family). His "collapsed shoulders" and "shoulders not collapsing" are names given to him later by Zhang Shou Mo. He genuinely likes Wang Mo Chi and has considerable influence in some areas. The third book features Qing Yan. This one best fits the title, but it gets a bit angsty later on. I highly recommend this one; I think it's super awesome! There's also a second volume to this book.
