I gave these four stars based on my personal impressions. I felt they had a few flaws in certain areas and weren’t perfect, but I still enjoyed them. I bought every chapter with my own money, and they were worth it

Long completed or ongoing novels with coherent logic, smooth writing, and excellent plots. (The rating system won't let me give everything five stars.)

Is this the end of the previous Poseidon hero? Is he different from other male protagonists? It was giving up the eternal sacrifice of oneself that gave the heroine her freedom. And the heroine deliberately kept his original power and took it away, but ended up sealing the crystal and nothing happened?
Hahahahaha... This alternative journey to the west really makes me laugh to death, hahahaha
So in this world, Erlang Zhenjun finally reunited. Looking at it this way, it's still be.
This is the funniest Tang Monk in all the Journey to the West fanfics I've seen. It's really funny!
White lotus emerges from the mud but remains unstained. There is contrast. When one person has something bad, the other person will immediately show what he has done well in this area. Some people deliberately provoke each other and magnify the other person's bad side, just to show their own good side. Green tea, don't speak ill of a person. Speak ill of people similar to this person and make innuendoes about this person. Well, if you encounter someone who sees through the situation while performing the above skills, hold on tight, don't be embarrassed, apologize immediately, and try to speak normally. Thick skin is also a necessity in life.
Is the second part out yet? Let's go!
The heroine is indeed quick-witted and smart, and she has saved herself from very dangerous situations many times. Like the heroine. I like the world that the author has painstakingly constructed. The logic is reasonable but not wise. There are many characters, and the heroine understands the feelings of the world. I saw what others did. What is the difference between green tea and white lotus? I still can't tell the difference. But I know a little bit.
After reading the follow-up supplement to this map in the second part, even Zhenjun finished playing it, and Xiangxiang started to wear it again, ugh
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha I burst out laughing
I had read a little bit of the second book before, and then I read this Poseidon Sacrifice, and I know that Yang Jian also chose Hedao in the end. The characters are so well created, and it makes me sad to read them. The writing is really good, and it is not just about the love between children. I hope the writing will get better and better~
