I Painted Faces at the Cemetery for Fifteen Years

I found a major plot hole after reading the first two chapters, please help! The plot involves the protagonist killing the third son of his enemy, a nobleman, and spending three days and three nights drawing his own bones and veins! Excuse me: Firstly, after killing the son of a powerful local tyrant, the protagonist didn't move his base for three days and three nights. Is he really that reckless?

Readers gradually grew tired of the pastry genre. "The Demon Emperor" was arguably the best-written, but later works like "Eunuch," "Son-in-Law," and one urban novel (I forgot how many I read) followed—I didn't read much of it—and now "Graveyard," I only read a few chapters of that too before giving up.

It's fantasy; all power is concentrated in one person. Why would one recognize a thief as one's father? It's all about court intrigue; wisdom and strategy are the ultimate weapons. Why waste fifteen years in the graveyard? Lacking the grandeur of a celestial dynasty, the passion of power struggles, and the wonder of fantasy, it is rather uninteresting to read.

From Daily Drug Addict, what do you think of this book? 😏

The beginning confused me completely; I was totally bewildered.

To be honest, it's a bit toxic. The protagonist extracts the memories of his enemy's son and perfectly impersonates him; his family treats him well, even kindly. He continues this pretense, intending to take over his enemy's power, ostensibly to make them suffer.

I feel really bad about what I'm seeing so far. I want to see the main character die and let King Mi be the main character instead. So far, only King Mi has been portrayed reasonably well. The others are nobody, they're nothing at all.

The biggest problem with pastry-themed stories is that the protagonist is always a powerless loser.

Why didn't I read the comments section beforehand? The beginning of the book was alright; it seemed like both the good and the bad guys were intelligent. But around chapter 200, it just kept repeating the same pattern of being slapped in the face and then getting slapped in the face, and then finally discovering that all the enemies were actually family members. It was disgusting. I just had to vent.

Among top-tier writers, this level of writing is truly appalling. The ideas and creativity are good, but there's a lack of matching writing skill. Overall, it's worth a look, but if you find the writing style unbearable at a certain point, just give up.
