   The first book is barely considered a no-romance book, although one world has a romantic pairing, but it's generally not. Those who dislike romance can skip that volume (note: that world is BG). The following books are all no-romance, and I personally found them enjoyable. There's Jiang Shubai, who uses his frail health to cultivate his conscience; Luo Jing, who commits suicide to refresh his status; a gentleman trapped in a bizarre body but possessing a human heart; the unretainable Kazama Tsuru; Yu Chen, a creator of ghost stories with a rather literary air; and Angel, whom I feel has a slight yandere tendency.

    Highly recommend the first book: ↓ The protagonist is originally an evil god (no romance – feel free to ship any pairing) (He can carve a ton of people, and each one has so-called evidence) (The protagonist doesn't have that particularly submissive feel, but every time he dies, it's a beautiful (tragic) death – this really appeals to my taste) (The protagonist's appearance goes without saying. Ideal type – read it yourself) (Mainly, he's sickly) His power is suppressed, causing his body to be very weak, coughing up blood almost every day. Because he's an evil god, he can be resurrected after death, but his teammates always misunderstand him (thinking he's trying to commit suicide or is about to die). But there's no special care (not the kind of care that makes you feel disgusted after reading). The author's writing is excellent, the plot is smooth and fluid, the logic is tight, and the language is witty and humorous. The ending won't disappoint (the ending is perfect and wonderful), and the epilogue is also quite exciting (the protagonist is misunderstood again by a professor in the real world, who thinks he's about to die...). Hehehe, the whole book doesn't feel like a diary entry at all!! Not at all!!! There really isn't any filler!!! I really like this book (I have a very high standard for novels). I'll recommend what I consider to be the best.

    😘No romance, sickly but handsome male lead, this book is seriously amazing!!! He suffers from all sorts of illnesses, including a sickness simulator, coughing up blood, stomach cancer, and a broken leg. It's not a typical early story; the beginning focuses on setting up the protagonist and his growth, a relatively gradual development, but it really explodes in the middle!!! He's a heartthrob for both men and women, a true straight man's favorite. It's not a dual-male lead style, it's a very niche genre. In his past life, he was a major villain, ruthless and disdainful of everyone, focused solely on his own beauty!! 😘Later, his villainous brothers from his past life appear, making it incredibly addictive and enjoyable!!! He's sickly, but because of his personality, he's arrogant and indifferent to everything, so you don't feel any angst for him, which is the best part. Go for it! If you like this style, hurry up and read it!!!

    I've watched it 3 times! The sickly beauty of the crown prince is incredibly endearing, a madman criticizing the emperor, initially giving off a strong ❤️, but I actually love him. He's beautiful, strong, and tragically fated, coughing up blood throughout, but truly powerful; everyone is intelligent, a double strength. At first, I thought he was just a heartthrob, but he's not at all. Each character has their own backstory, each is well-developed and fleshed out. The writing is superb; after finishing it, I felt sorry for every single character. It's not black and white; everyone is truly acting out of necessity from their own perspective. It's really captivating and a fantastic read. Highly recommended!
