   I have to mention this one. After reading it, I couldn't stand any of the other Jinyiwei novels. It's pure bliss, no one says a word after reading it. It's already finished, no female lead, ruthless and decisive, a killing spree from beginning to end. Just a killing spree. The Jinyiwei, using imperial power, act without restraint, daring to mess with anyone, leveling up quickly. The ending is regicide, fighting the boss, and then it's over. At least it doesn't just change the setting and become a repetitive story.
