   I see many of the books you recommended have already been taken down. Let me recommend one: the protagonist kills everyone, men and women alike, for personal gain. It also features high-IQ battles of wits, and despite being supernatural, he infiltrates the investigation bureau to better utilize his talents for growth. Plus, there's absolutely no romance, no sex scenes! No downsides.

   Chu Xuan transmigrated to the Cangxuan World, becoming a demonic cultivator of the Wuji Sect. The so-called demonic cultivation involves plundering the essence of heaven and earth, seizing the spirit of all things. Only by slaughtering countless lives can one become a supreme demon lord. However, killing is intolerable to the Heavenly Dao of humanity. The Wuji Sect was also destroyed by the righteous sects. In utter desperation, Chu Xuan accidentally obtained the Blood Mirror, which allowed him to travel to a post-apocalyptic planet overrun by zombies! He was astonished to discover that this place was practically a blessed land exclusively for demonic cultivators! If he dared to sacrifice a million mortals, the Heavenly Dao of humanity would summon heavenly thunder and earthly fire to pulverize him and burn him to ashes. But if he sacrificed a million zombies, not only would he escape disaster, but the Wuji Sect would also be destroyed by the righteous sects.

   This book is absolutely dark. The protagonist, a former demon lord, is reborn and plots to conquer the world. He devours his so-called subordinates once they lose their usefulness. The first 30 chapters are filled with foreshadowing, making it somewhat disorganized. If the plot isn't particularly clear, I suggest starting from chapter 40. The author is a fan of Gu Zhenren, so there's a lot of poetry. In short, I highly recommend it. (Extremely selfish)

   I've read 100 chapters. The protagonist is currently a 10-year-old human, all alone, practically devoid of humanity. Of all the books I've read that portray characters as so-called ruthless, decisive, and selfish, this is the only one that truly fits the bill.
