He's got the intelligence, the looks, and the acting skills, and the stories of the characters he plays are all fantastic!! I can't describe it, just read it yourself! The second one: The protagonist of this book is a pure villain, a lone wolf, not a saint. Although he takes care of his former subordinates, their interactions are limited; he's simply repaying past debts. The pacing is fast and doesn't drag at all. Furthermore, it doesn't vilify the original protagonist (Li Shouyun). A common problem with villainous characters is that they vilify the original protagonist to justify the villain's actions against them. But this kind of writing is just a variation on the same theme. In this book, the protagonist simply dislikes the original protagonist (Li Shouyun), without erasing any of the original protagonist's shining moments of humanity.

The protagonist, a fox spirit, is incredibly intelligent, almost demonic. After joining the group, he schemes to change the future and prevent the original storyline's ending. The protagonist is actually a scapegoat; the corrupt emperor is constantly targeting him, trying to shift blame onto him. The protagonist can't escape, so he secretly plots, outwardly confirming his villainous identity while secretly trying to save the protagonist's group—a truly tragic situation.
