   The protagonist of this novel is amazing! To the outside world, he is a ruthless person who puts profit first, but in reality, he is a drama queen who loves to take advantage of others. He has many female protagonists around him and can even cultivate from martial arts to immortality. He is cautious and has a sharp tongue. He is definitely the king of survival. The plot is by no means mindless and comes with its own humor!
