Fortunately, the system activates, repairing his spiritual roots, and he finally embarks on the path of immortality. One day, Luo Fanshuang, the aloof and ethereal Golden Core cultivator in her twenties from the sect, noticed an unusual fluctuation of spiritual energy and landed at the door of his dilapidated hut. Their eyes met, and both of their heartbeats skipped a beat. He blurted out, almost unconsciously, "Have we... Met somewhere before?" As soon as the words left his mouth, his back was covered in cold sweat. For a menial laborer to say such a thing to a Golden Core senior sister was tantamount to courting death. But he didn't know that Luo Fanshuang had already silently recited those words in her mind. She wasn't angry; instead, she smoothed things over for him. A few days later, the system sent him to Qingxiu Peak to deliver medicine to Luo Fanshuang to suppress the cold poison.] He scrambled into the cave, only to find his senior sister suffering a relapse of her cold poison, collapsed on the ground, her eyelashes frosted over. He pulled her into his arms, channeling his primordial spiritual energy, forcefully pulling her back from the brink of death. His senior sister opened her eyes, her ears turning red, but she didn't push him away. The next day, the inner sect core token and the library's top-tier token landed in his hands. "Within the sect, anyone who dares to touch you is my enemy." Later, disciples often stopped him to ask, "Fairy Luo is so arrogant, why does she treat you differently?"

    Although it's still being serialized, the book is incredibly imaginative, with a thrilling plot and a constant stream of laughs, especially in the later chapters which feature a plethora of hilarious and absurd everyday cases. Just read a few more chapters and you'll see how fun it is.

    Only fellow bookworms can cure a bookworm's ailment; 4000 hours of reading time verified. [Heart emoji] First, the first book initially surprised me; I dismissed it as just another wish-fulfillment novel. The author seems to have studied Traditional Chinese Medicine, making it accessible to readers with no prior knowledge. It vividly and engagingly describes various ailments diagnosed through TCM principles. The second book, by a much more established author, is a masterpiece. I recommend the Tang Dynasty, the era of Empress Wu Zetian. Even in those turbulent times, everything eventually fades. The Empress grew old, as did Di Renjie, and a new generation replaced the old. The synopsis: The protagonist is the Empress's grandson, banished because of her son's transgressions. Upon his return, he rebuilds his power base. While not a typical wish-fulfillment novel, it's thrilling and exciting. The protagonist doesn't have any special abilities. The third book has no female lead, is based on Detective Conan, and features a minor male protagonist who joins the Black Organization. The main couple consists of characters from the Black Organization. It's very good, comparable to Chi Feichi's book. The protagonist is a magic user and is targeted by the world's consciousness.

    They're both around 7 now, but believe me, they'll be above 9.5 Soon. I've been reading novels since junior high, and it's been ten years since I graduated from university. Recently, I've been digging up old ones from 10 or 15 years ago, but these two have such fresh settings that even a seasoned bookworm like me wants to keep reading. For details, just click and see for yourself. In short: "Picking up trash" is a unique anime fanfiction, and "The Disabled Sentinel" is a story of two interstellar heroes heading in opposite directions.
