    Reader note

    This is a hardcore underworld novel whose title doesn't do it justice; this is what adventure novels should be like. I was initially drawn in by the intriguing title, "The Only Man in History to Be Killed by Being Looked At," thinking it was some unofficial history of Wei-Jin figures. I devoured fifty chapters and was immediately captivated by the solid world-building and pacing. The author's greatest strength lies in their reconstruction of historical tropes: instead of overturning the story of "Wei Jie being killed by being looked at," they added a layer of fate to this ancient tale—his untimely death in the eyes of the world was merely the beginning of the Qingwu successor's journey to break free from the mortal realm and enter the underworld. The novel avoids forced settings and exploits history; all adaptations serve the main plot with impeccable balance. The plot is consistently engaging, completely devoid of the superficiality often found in light novels: - The action scenes are logical: the battle with lanterns and human bones, from the stalemate of defense to locking onto the core, and then the team's division of labor to break the deadlock, each person's output has a clear cost; everyone is injured after the battle, there are no cheat codes that restore them to full health, and the power system remains stable from beginning to end. - The dialogue is substantial: "The Longing for Home" avoids cheap sentimentality, using only a single illusion to expose the hidden obsessions in everyone's hearts—Lin Wan's old case, Su Qinghan's incomplete scroll, and Wang Daole's unspoken secrets about his sect. Without lengthy flashbacks, the characters' depth is immediately apparent. - The foreshadowing is compelling: The dark aura hidden in Wei Jie's wrist, the fleeting beastly shadow in Xuanzhu, and the lantern bearer's words, "You've finally arrived," are all subtly and clearly planted. There's no need for contrived suspense; you'll want to turn the page immediately after finishing the book. Most importantly, the ensemble cast is strong; no one is merely a supporting character. The detective engages in close combat, the Taoist controls the situation, the Qingwu successor breaks the deadlock, and the Black Cat covers the rear—each with their own secrets yet supporting each other. This sense of teamwork and shared destiny is far more compelling than a lone-wolf fantasy. If you enjoy unconventional Chinese metaphysical adventures and crave a solid plot, this book is definitely worth reading. We've just entered the ancient city of Youdu, which is the stage where the world-building is unfolding and the main storyline is gaining momentum, so investing in it is definitely worthwhile.
