Smart Male Leads, No Heroine or Just One
This reading list reflects only my personal tastes... I really dislike it when a novel has a female lead who inexplicably falls for the male lead... It just makes me laugh. So I tend to prefer male leads who are decisive, coldhearted, ruthless, and consummate egoists. I only add the occasional book with a genuinely well-written romance, and I don't mind books where the female lead barely matters. Some people might think certain books on my list are too cold-blooded, but my previous list was lit

Reading Experience: My Favorite Books
Before 2016, I read Chinese and world literature by authors such as Liu Cixin, Mo Yan, Lu Yao, and Asimov. Then, in early 2016, I stumbled upon Battle Through the Heavens and started following fantasy and xianxia. This list recommends the xianxia and fantasy gems I've read and genuinely enjoyed, with quality over quantity. I'd also love for friends to share good books with me.

Thoughts after reading Chapter 171
The tropes in novels these days are getting increasingly disgusting. They always portray the protagonist as someone who has to save the world, as if the world will collapse if he doesn't, especially when the protagonist is just a nobody. I once read a quote in a book: "If the world truly depended on one person to save it, and if that person had to do it, then the world would have already…
Everything was fine until I saw that she was going to be a live-in son-in-law to this woman surnamed Zhong... You're someone who has the mark of an evil Buddha and won't live more than two years, yet you traveled all this way to find that temple just to survive, right? And you just happened to be passing by to watch the show and got dragged into becoming a live-in son-in-law?
Did the author receive money from the monks to write this novel that belittles Taoists and praises monks? Perhaps it shouldn't be too obvious.
What exactly is the main plot? What is the protagonist's goal? Is it to cultivate oneself and bring peace to the world? Or is it simply to escape the hustle and bustle and live a carefree, immortal life? I've read almost to the latest chapter, but I still don't understand.
A promising start but a disappointing finish
Honestly, the early part of this book was phenomenal, comparable to *The Legend of the Chess Master*. However, in the later stages, especially after the introduction of the Daoist path, it felt like it was written by two completely different people. It became increasingly uninteresting, filled with various unfinished plots and schemes.
Dude, please stop writing romance scenes. It's so awkward to watch. Both women fall in love at first sight without any build-up.
It's inexplicable; the contrast is too great. First, they were educating others not to treat ordinary people like ants, then they became saying that not being ants is unworthy of being just a series of numbers, without batting an eye.
Having read over 700 chapters, this is the end.
The early parts were alright, with some demon-slaying scenes, but later it became all about scheming and intrigue. The protagonist's cultivation level seemed to increase each time, yet also seemed to stagnate. The enemies he faced at each level were essentially no different from those at the previous level—it felt like an endless nesting of dolls.
It's well-written, except for the early scenes where the prime minister's daughter is killed and his wife is taken advantage of by a shaman, which is a bit much. The prime minister is second only to the emperor, so I don't know until later in the story, but it seems unlikely that even if the dynasty falls, such things would actually happen. That's all I'll say. Otherwise, it's pretty good. Happy New Year!
