    Having read *The Misty Rain Pavilion*, *Ten Days of Bells*, and *Tian Yuan*, as well as *The Mysterious City of Beasts* and *The Ghostly Abode*, I still think *The Mysterious City of Beasts* and *The Ghostly Abode* are better. They're captivating from the very beginning, avoiding a formulaic feel. The plots are full of twists and turns, gripping and immersive, making them very easy to follow. Actually, all of these books are quite good; this is just my personal opinion. [Heart][Kiss][Admiration]

    The first one is my favorite, and the second one is often recommended to me by people around me; the interactions between the male lead and that other person are particularly humorous.

    The first book features a protagonist who's a bit eccentric and unpredictable, defying conventional tropes. He always has his own reasons for taking action. The story structure is that each volume typically resolves a major event beyond expectations, often with undercurrents swirling beneath the surface. The second book, I only read the first four hundred chapters or so, and it felt a bit like *Daojun*, with its old emperor's scheming ultimately revealed to be outmaneuvered by the general's plot—very exciting.

    A must-read masterpiece in the harem genre, featuring a sect that recruits female teachers, maids, mature women, female sect leaders, lolis, ice maidens, twin female ghosts, female demons, empresses, nuns, and even a green and white snake demon—a complete variety. The male protagonist is very fortunate, and the story is highly immersive. The plot is interesting, unconventional, humorous, suspenseful, and fantastical, using modern concepts of cultivation.
