   The female protagonist in this book is a total comedian who transmigrates into a novel she once read, becoming a little turtle in a wishing well. As the male protagonist's contracted beast, she refuses to accept this and transforms into human form to begin cultivating immortality. The story is full of laughs, but it also has some heartbreaking moments later on. 🧐🧐🧐 Highly recommended, it's truly excellent.

   Reader note

   The first book is a crossover novel with various TV series and movies. Each storyline is closely related to the original series, and it's not just about various nannies or outrageous plots. It's not a harem story either; it includes both original characters from the original series and newly added ones. It's very good, highly recommended! I especially recommend Lotus Tower and Scarlet Heart. The second book is a fanfiction of The Legend of the Young Swordsman. I can't stress this enough, it's amazing! Highly recommended! Each character is more developed, and it fills in the gaps in everyone's character, including resolving the regrets of Su Muyu from the Dark River.

    Of course, it's an interesting story! The male lead is a pure bad guy who enjoys killing. When he's being manipulated by the female lead, he tries to trip her up but often ends up getting the short end of the stick. The female lead is a smart, rational, decisive, principled, and strong woman who isn't a saint. She's very adaptable, knows how to assess situations, and isn't pretentious. The love-hate relationship between the male and female leads is also very interesting. The game-like worlds are diverse, and each world is full and rich.

    [A Hilarious Landslide in the Cultivation World! "The Sword-Seller in Red Robes" Devils the Entire Immortal Sect] This absurd cultivation novel is a pinnacle of the most wicked literature! The female protagonist, Chi Miao, starts by stripping an outer disciple of their clothes to set up a fortune-telling stall. After unlocking the "Sneaky History System," she completely lets loose, carving the word "immoral" into her lungs—tricking the Sword Sect's holy son into learning the Way of the Scoundrel, teaching the Buddhist Sect's disciple the Social Dance, leading the Qin Sect's young master astray in driving tests, and even causing the Hehuan Sect's holy maiden to bang her head against a wall for her! The author's use of references is masterful: during a spiritual root test, the female protagonist cheats using the system, causing a celestial phenomenon, and the elders of Nine Swords Mountain almost draw their swords to fight over a disciple; Ying Wuhuo, the inheritor of the Way of Honesty, encounters the rambling Chi Miao and is forced into a daily routine of "debunking a fraud." The most hilarious part is that the young master of the Jin family is tricked into throwing spirit stones at someone and then having to retrieve them, perfectly illustrating that "the happiness of the rich is often simple and unpretentious!" The book's 477 chapters are packed with jokes like a barrage of pear blossoms, and every line the female lead utters is designed to tickle the reader's funny bone. While other cultivation novels are all about "don't underestimate a young man's potential," Chi Miao has already led the entire cultivation world in a raucous dance party on graves. Friendly reminder: Please store your brain before reading, or you might laugh until your soul leaves your body! Rating: ★★★★★ (Warning: Extremely high level of silliness)

    I think this one is pretty good. The main difference between it and other rule-based supernatural tales is that it leans a bit more towards a shonen (action-packed) ensemble cast later on. The male lead isn't that outstanding. It's more about multiple strong characters than one super-powerful character with multiple strong opponents.

    Qin Qianning looked at the mountain of dishes piled up in front of her, feeling both amused and exasperated. Her elders and younger brother were vying to serve her food, leaving her no chance to even touch her chopsticks. "I... I can do it myself..." She muttered softly, but no one heard her. Before Ying Zheng could even put the braised pork he'd picked up into her bowl, Li Shimin had already offered her a spoonful of crab roe tofu; Pei Yu had just put down the steamed sea bass when Qin Yanzhi pushed over a plate of crystal shrimp dumplings. The young girl held the bowl helplessly, her almond-shaped eyes filled with confusion. These historically powerful figures were now competing like children vying for attention. She looked down at the overflowing food, then up at the expectant eyes of the others, her ears gradually turning pink. "It's getting cold..." She weakly reminded them, finally stopping everyone from eating. But the next second, four pairs of chopsticks reached for her bowl at the same time—"Try mine first!" Amidst the calls, Qin Qianning suddenly felt that being surrounded by such sweet troubles wasn't so bad.

    Rating: 9.5 or higher, I won't say more. 😳😘 1. A female-oriented fantasy novel with a fresh idol theme. You definitely need to read the second part before deciding whether to stay or leave, OK? (Personally, I feel the second part is very attractive.) The whole story has strong values, a strong sense of team spirit, and a great ensemble cast. Everyone is intelligent. 2. The values remain strong, the methods for clearing levels are novel, the characters are all highly intelligent, and it's not tiring to read. Later, the protagonist becomes a big shot and starts a company in a horror world, still aiming to save all of humanity. 3. Little Martial Uncle (9.8 rating) needs no introduction. The author truly put their heart into it; it's a high-level cultivation novel. My name is Lin Du, the "Du" in "Du Ren Du Ji" (meaning "to save others and oneself"). 4. God of Slaughter vs. Evil God, no worries about the levels, the CP is sweet, and the plot is top-notch. I also love the side CP (the doctor is mine 😳). 5. It's very high-level; it's a published novel, which I discovered while doing a quest. 6. Learn emotional intelligence; a very useful and funny story. The values are the foundation of my book recommendations.
