In a Reading Slump: Completed Novels
If you’re out of books to read, take a look. They’re all completed.
Decent Enough to Read
These are books I've read and thought were pretty good. I don't like stories that try too hard to look cool. Substance matters, and the plot has to make sense. The author matters too, of course. I'm in a reading slump lately. If you've come across any good books, please recommend them. Thanks! So many books on the charts lately are comedy stories full of silly characters, or shallow wish-fulfillment tales about leveling up and fighting monsters. Even the xianxia stories I love have mostly turned
A Closer Look
A roundup of the best books I've read. I'm a chaotic evil type, a classic menace, so this list leans toward dark stories.
What Is Immortal to Me Is Poison to You
If a book gets more downvotes than upvotes, I'll delete it. This list is cursed! Please leave a like and follow! If you get poisoned to death, though, guys can stick around. We can explore the mysteries of the human body together!!~\(≧▽≦)/~ Please, authors, don't abandon your stories... I don't mind slow updates, but could you at least avoid padding them out?
Gems, Rebirth, Xianxia, Industry, Showbiz, and the Internet
Great ideas, excellent writing, and consistent updates. (The list only has room for 50 books, so I'm trying to choose ones that update regularly. The platform limits the list's visibility, so it doesn't show up in searches. When no one can find it, there's little motivation to keep updating.)
Personal Picks, Books Worth Reading Right Now
I'm out of books to read. Please recommend some.
Fantasy and Xianxia, Especially Mortal Cultivation and Primordial Wilderness Stories
The Cultivator Clan, King of Immortal City, The Child of the Jie Sect, Seeking Immortality, The Divine Kingdom of Faith, Endless Shattered Realms, The Great Sage Hanguang
A 10+ Year Veteran Reader's List, Quality Guaranteed!
Mainly recommending new books, in the hope that excellent new stories will get more attention. I've sampled every book on this list, so they're safe to read. If you don't like them, hit me with your flowers! 🌸
Catching Up on Great Books…
Quality over quantity. I only add books I've read and enjoyed! If you know any good books, please recommend them to me in the comments. And please follow the list too.

If you like the list, please follow it.

I think these are pretty good. Give them a try! I’ll update and clean up the list from time to time.
Xianxia Novels
A collection of xianxia novels that I think are pretty good. I won’t recommend the famous ones, just some that seem good but aren’t very well known. Hope you find them useful.

Grocery Store No. ∞
These ghostwriters (contract laborers) are alright, I guess. What happened to the Property Law and Antitrust Law books? They've disappeared.

If the book was still somewhat readable before the events in Rui, it really became idiotic after that. The "Divine Qi-Eating Technique" was already known to be a method for cultivating sacrificial offerings and having a strong attraction to evil spirits when the author rescued the Taoist priest Liu from the Heavenly Prison.
Seeing comments praising the book's plot as reasonable, I'm speechless. First, bringing back a hostage prince who could potentially inherit the throne required a huge sacrifice from the Qi Kingdom to agree to release him. Instead, they sent Li Sheng with a small force, and not only that, but the Qi Kingdom likely slaughtered most of his men, leaving only a handful, which is how the protagonist…
Seeing the princess being forced to dance, then committing suicide, dying from poisoning.
Regardless of whether the emperor likes the princess or not, once she entered the palace alive, she openly represents the face of the royal family. For the Duke of Chen's men to dare make his son's princess dance for him, and then, after her death, not punish them, is a laughingstock for the people. Making all the ministers side with the Duke of Chen is truly digging their own grave.
Judging from the comments, this book shows how the royal family's face was completely humiliated by their subjects, yet they remained unscathed. That's amazing. There doesn't seem to be anything like this throughout history, either in China or abroad, unless the royal family has already fallen and has no power left.
Some books are doing well, but then they suddenly throw in some rubbish, writing bizarre plots, the worst of which is something like cheating on a woman. Yours is almost on par with that; the logic in your book is simply incomprehensible. Logically speaking, a legitimate heir wouldn't need to build a team from scratch, especially since the king is about to die.
Members of the royal family can only be scolded and humiliated by the royal family. Even a dog kept by the royal family is more noble than an outsider. Even if the king wanted to kill King Ren, the queen was still a member of the royal family. The king could look down on her, but outsiders couldn't.
Well, the political intrigue at court is poorly written. I suggest the author read works by those masters of political strategy. After all, the author didn't write about this before. A nation's internal affairs involve more than just material interests; it also involves saving face.
Thank you in closing 🙏
This book is now truly finished. Thank you to all the readers for your support, especially my old friend EricWSC, who has been supporting the author since the last book. The author is someone who cares a lot about what others think, and may be a bit sentimental and easily hurt. During the writing process, there were times when he considered giving up.
I read "Green Plum Immortal Path" very well, so I came to check out the author's new book. 😁
I've already voted. I hope there won't be any plot devices with cheat codes. I feel like novels with cheat codes are poorly written, so I don't read mindless stories with cheat codes.
