Books I Like!
Collecting some books I enjoy and ones I'm following now.
Undercover
I lurk in Qidian's official and premium groups, digging up the stories behind books and keeping an eye on what the big-name authors are up to. I'm always ready to break some news! I'm Yu Zecheng, and I'm here to feed you some salt!
My World
I’ll recommend books that I think are really good.
Promising New Reads
This list only includes new releases or top-quality books.
A Veteran Reader’s Treasure Trove
I'm a picky reader who'll read anything. I've personally tested every book on this list, so feel free to dig in. No formulaic plots, no dumbed-down writing! Searching the whole library for good books! Sharing them with fellow fans. (Not that anyone's reading this anyway _(:з"∠)_
In a Reading Slump? Come On In
Gun Da
A Severe Case of Naming Difficulty
How should I put it? These are all books I'm currently following, and I think they're really well written. Most have either one female lead or no female lead.

We're All Book Lovers
After decades of reading, I’ve never put pen to paper and written a book. What a regret.
A Lifelong Companion Among Fragrant Books
These are novels I’ve read and enjoyed. They may have a few flaws when I revisit them, but I still want to share them here. Great stories are best enjoyed together.
Books I've Saved
All kinds of stories, and most are pretty good.
Books I Can't Bear to Remove from My Shelf, Including Some Underrated Gems
I’ve been reading for years, and most of the books on this list suit my taste. They should appeal to some longtime readers, too. There are very few amateurish stories, including the so-called masterpieces on the rankings. These days, I just laugh at the rankings.
Books That Might Resonate
One person, one song, one world; one joy, one sorrow, then letting go

If I Can Read It, So Can You
~They're readable, at least. Whether they're good is up to you. ~Some lists are managed very strategically: books get removed and then added back to bump them up, or the ones at the bottom get deleted and re-added. I know it's a clever trick, but I don't care for it. I don't promote my list through other channels, either. I simply put it out here for my fellow readers to browse and enjoy, hoping to find others who share my tastes. ~I especially dislike lists that ask people to sample books and r
What Does It Mean to Be Mortal? What Does It Mean to Be an Immortal?
The immortal heroes and divine path stories we followed back then, plus recent ones that have caught my eye. Mortal-style cultivation, classic themes, ruthless protagonists. Bring on decisive action, valuing both profit and honor. Written as “xianxia,” read as “cultivation.” Not a fan of mindless tropes about vanquishing demons for justice, sacrificing yourself for your sect or humanity, and the like. What people call righteousness, duty, or loyalty (aside from loyalty to a beloved woman) should
New or Great Books Added Since 2016
A bunch of books got hit with 404 errors a while back, and it left me feeling pretty down, so I haven't updated much. I'm getting back to it now. The list is mostly newer books. I take them down from time to time, and most are removed once they're complete.

🍶🐬 Surprise, This List Only Has Three Books!! ✒Feng Huzi
🐬 This list only keeps three books. Selection criteria: ☞ No big-name authors. They already have plenty of recommendations and followers. ☞ Don't treat writing as a joke or feed readers garbage. ☞ If you're going to serve up garbage, at least put in your best effort and serve it in the most creative way. ☞ I don't care whether a book becomes a masterpiece, but it must genuinely be good. 🐬 This list only keeps three books.

No Romance, No Goody-Two-Shoes (Promising New Reads)
For my personal use. No female lead, no saintly protagonist. I'll call out any romantic tension or explicit scenes.

I'm ashamed to say this is the first time I've ever spent money on a "reward" after reading so many books over the years; I've even seen pirated versions before. I just had a sudden, sentimental impulse. Author, please don't mind, keep going! Fate will favor everyone who works hard. PS: I hope it doesn't have any of those clichéd plot points later on! 👍
Record the cultivation techniques and skills of Daozi
Daozi said: "The ancients spared no effort in their studies, and the work they did in their youth bore fruit in their old age." "What you learn from books is never enough; you must put it into practice to truly understand." — *On Learning*
Let me make a record of the secret techniques that appeared in the book. The first one: The Secret Corpse Refining Technique of Maoshan in the Taiping Dao
Although I haven't been following this book, I've been keeping an eye on it because the previous one was such a disgrace. I suspect this one will also be abandoned; I could tell from the last book that the author is an opportunist. I'm waiting to see if I'm wrong.
Support me! Keep it up! ↖(^ω^)↗
This protagonist seems to think he's on the right path, but from killing his master and stealing his book, to recklessly chopping up temple statues and tables without any restraint, to immediately turning on and killing the fox after taking its things... He has always done ruthless, vicious, and dishonest things, which is truly despicable.
He's been castrated... 😡 Let me know if this author releases a new book!
Hurry up and criticize him, he's released a new book called "Immortal Seal," and another one called "Immortal Chat" has already been abandoned.
The novel "Immortal Records" is suspected to be written under a new pseudonym by the author.
I saw him launch a new book, heard him make grand vows, and in the end, he abandoned it!
