Novels Without Harem-Seeking Heroes
Novels with little to no romance. Long live the Harmony God!
Awakening from a Great Dream a Thousand Years Later
Please don't recommend books. I won't add them. I've removed some books because their blurbs weren't good enough. If you like the list, please add it to your favorites. →_→ The title was too generic, so I changed it. Reading tip: turn off chapter comments.
Personal
Simple, Clean, and White
These works are full of ideas that can benefit young people today, especially in logic and ways of thinking, and they challenge conventional beliefs. I’ve studied them deeply and found endless things to appreciate.
Dark Themes: Twisted Human Nature
Seal the darkness at the bottom of a bottle, and brew the most savage red. Light is called light precisely because darkness sets it off, but all of this meaning has been imposed by human beings. Whether one becomes a Buddha or a demon, the road is paved with countless bones. This list mainly recommends dark novels of all kinds. I will regularly update the collection and clear out books each month. If you know of any excellent dark novels I have missed, please leave me a message.
My Personal Reading List
Rational, unconventional, cold, and crazy
A Treat for the Logic-Minded
A reader for ten years. No stupid protagonists, please. I like sensible stories with thoughtful protagonists and a clear main plot. These are books I've read and remember.
Rational, Simple, and Running Out of Books to Read
The protagonists are generally pretty levelheaded.
Some Miscellaneous Books I've Read
A few of these are favorites of mine
A Lazy Reader's List: No Fake Saints, No Protagonist Abuse, Mainly Feel-Good Stories
I might as well recommend the books I’ve subscribed to, to thank everyone who saved this list. My terminal laziness means I don’t comment much on books. It takes too much brainpower.
Long Live Dark Stories
Dark, satisfying power fantasies
Dark Cuisine
These are books I personally like: dark in tone, with an intelligent protagonist, no female lead, and interesting supporting characters. (P.S. Why can't comics be added to reading lists? There are quite a few good comics worth reading too.)
Dark Fiction, No Female Lead, or an Insignificant Female Lead
Dark novels with no female lead, or with a female lead who barely features
Awake from the Dream, No Female Lead (Like It? Please Give It a Thumbs-Up)
So many good books have been ruined by their female leads!!! There are absolutely no female leads in any of the books on this list!!! Meng Xing Guanzhu's list has reached 3,000 followers! For various reasons, updates have been slow. Please bear with me!!!
Books to Beat the Boredom
Rational and dark
Personal Tastes
I have pretty discerning tastes, but I can guarantee that I've carefully read every book on this list. Updated irregularly.
Dark Fiction
A haven for fans of dark fiction. I've read nearly every book here, and they're all excellent dark novels.
Halfway to Becoming a Demon
How can you gain the power to create heaven without enduring the agonies of hell!
Illusion
Some books have gone missing: Earth Lord God, From Chieftain to Planetary Leader, Lord of All Souls, and Super Giant Beast Clone.
Dark Fantasy Reads I've Been Following! A Decade-Long Bookworm's Honest Recommendations ✔

The tragic end of a once-powerful figure is both regrettable and somewhat expected. From the author's perspective, the ending is perfect, and the tragic conclusion provides an explanation for Wang Zhen's fate. However, from the reader's perspective, while one experiences a profound and indescribable sorrow, it's not satisfying!
For days after watching it, it kept replaying in my mind; I would think of it every time I closed my eyes.
The Legend of the Sunflower Manual is also a prequel to The Smiling, Proud Wanderer.
This book is truly a masterpiece of the dark martial arts genre, a perfect 10 stars! 👍
After reading it, I was truly moved. No matter how splendid the world is, it will eventually fade into nothingness, like a firefly. The protagonist, a once-powerful figure, ultimately died with resentment. Although the book is short, the content is very exciting. The beginning is quite interesting.
To Wang Zhen
I've never liked villains, except for Wang Zhen. He was an extremely selfish and ruthless man who, for his own desires, murdered his relatives, benefactors, and carried out a bloody massacre of tens of thousands of impoverished people; he was a capricious and tyrannical man who, in a fit of rage, would kill his confidants and wife, slaughter women and children for personal grudges, and destroy…
The author wrote this novel when he was 18. I can't believe it. I was 17 or 18, still studying hard, striving for the college entrance exam, and reading novels like *Battle Through the Heavens* and *Douluo Continent*—youthful and passionate, synonymous with youth. This work, however, offers profound insights into society and human nature, particularly regarding ancient officials.
I resisted reading this book several times before finally doing so; it's a gem among unfinished works.
I've always wanted to say, this book is so good, why haven't I read more of it? In my heart, this book, *Phoenix's Lament*, *Evil Alchemy*, *Evolution of the Celestial Pythons*, and another one whose title I forgot are also exceptionally good. *Summoning Nightmares: Where is the Immortal Path?* Barely makes the list; there really aren't many other good books…
Such a good book in 11 years!
