   The first book is truly amazing! The female lead is humorous, funny, and incredibly capable. The supporting characters are also quite good. The second book is also great! The female lead is strong, stable, and unafraid of worldly power. She also has a powerful background; her parents are in the underworld and can come up to her whenever she needs help, even the King of Hell can come to her aid. The male lead is also steadfast in his choice of her, and the two have a deep connection. The female lead is an ancient goddess, and the male lead is an ancient war god. The female lead is very busy and doesn't want her cultivation to be restricted, so she decisively descends to the mortal realm to train. The male lead accompanies her to the mortal realm in her eighth incarnation. In this life, the male lead manipulates the destiny chart, and the two become husband and wife for one lifetime. After that, their fates are intertwined for countless lifetimes, with many bizarre and wonderful events that make it hard to put down. The third book features the male and female leads working together to solve cases with great chemistry, cracking cases like the poisoning of royal children while their relationship deepens. The characters are vividly portrayed, the plot is tight and fast-paced, and there are many plot twists. It's a must-read for mystery lovers. The fourth book has a relatively novel plot, and it's one of the few I've read so far where the male and female leads, who are living people working in the underworld, are truly destined to be together after reincarnation. After regaining their past life memories, their bond strengthens, and they develop a stronger trust and understanding that was lacking in their previous lives. So, meeting the right person at the right time makes everything fall into place. There are also many memorable supporting characters. Overall, the plot progresses quite quickly, but the ending is a bit too rushed; the villains are dealt with in just a few lines in one chapter, making it feel a bit abrupt. However, the whole book is quite lighthearted and funny, with no angst, making it a good read. The fifth book is a novel ancient Chinese detective story with interconnected episodic stories. There are no melodramatic twists, and the romance develops naturally within the cases. The male and female leads are likable, their interactions are relaxed and playful, and the sweetness is just right, making it very appealing.

    The first book tells the story of a short-lived young Taoist priest who is reborn into the body of Lu Jin, a struggling 18th-tier celebrity in modern times. He gains a second life but faces a huge compensation claim, forcing him to rely on livestreaming to earn money. Unexpectedly, in this life, he actually encounters someone who will pull him out of the abyss. Fu Yu initially thinks Lu Jin is just a novice during his first livestream, but later becomes the one who helps him when he's on the verge of collapse. It's a strong, pure romance; I really love the line, "I won't go to the abyss, I have the bright path of humanity. You have no one waiting for you, but I do." The second book features a lazy, food-loving, straightforward protagonist (Qi Gu) and a lazy, dramatic, and powerful antagonist (Lin Hanzhi). Several later books also have livestreaming storylines. The third book has no romantic pairing, but the plot is unique; the fourth book currently appears to be an ensemble piece, with the female lead not having any romantic relationships with anyone.

    Absolutely a guaranteed investment! Highly recommended! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 This could be a prequel to all cultivation novels! It will show you why there are human, ghost, and immortal realms, and why immortals face inner demons during their ascension! The female lead is cool, so incredibly cool! Every chapter is thrilling, from beginning to end! Everyone is incredibly intelligent! Each character is distinct, and the villains are all extremely intelligent, plotting almost invincibly to defeat the female lead! The female lead is also incredibly cunning. Many times I thought she was doomed, but then she turned the tables! Even the readers were bewildered; her intelligence is off the charts, and the plot twists are amazing! 1: My name is Li Fu, Li as in dawn, Fu as in soaring upwards. I have no Daoist name, but I excel at killing immortals! 2: The Nine Heavens won't give her justice, and the immortals won't reason with her. So, from this day forward—truth lies only on the edge of her sword! 3: Ten thousand vengeful ghosts pave the way, one sword pierces through the six realms. 4: "I will fall from the heavens, making the distinction between immortals and mortals irreversible!" 5: "After chasing all the way, now it's my turn." Li Fu gripped the black sword, tilted her head, and smiled: "Kill!" 6: As soon as she finished speaking, her expression suddenly changed, and the three people beside her rose with overwhelming resentment, their eyes cold and fierce: "Kill!" 7: Li Fu leaned forward, the Emperor's Sword Banner in her hand piercing through his dantian, twisting it forcefully, and smiled slightly in his ear: "It's a pleasure to meet you, then... Goodbye."
