Lin Jie, a transmigrator, is the owner of a bookstore in another world.

He’s kind and warm-hearted, often recommending healing books to customers who are going through a tough time. From time to time, he secretly promotes his own work too.

Over time, these customers begin to respect him greatly, some even frequently bringing local specialties to repay his favor. They often seek his professional opinion when it comes to selecting books, and share their experiences with this ordinary bookstore owner to people around them.

They respectfully and intimately refer to him using names such as the «Demon God’s Lackey», «Propagator of the Flesh and Blood Gospel», “ ‘Corpse Devouring Sect’s Rites and Customs’ Author» and «Shepherd of the Stars».

    Mini-review: Quality novel with some minor flaws until later parts, where quality dropped. Pretty good world building and elegant plot development. Smart faceslaping, build on misunderstandings and coincidences (with hidden implications). Have elements of horror and mystery.
    Solid 4+.
    -------------------------------
    More of a venting:
    Very excellent novel... until late 300 chapters (456 is the last chapter). I don't know what happened, but it as though author lost interest and decided to end it, while being at least somewhat responsible, but without previous passion and hard work it's not the same. Or another author finished it (it happens with chinese novels sometimes).

    Anyway, it is finished and these last several dozens of chapters are okay, but they very much lacking previous meticulous plot building. It's all happened possibly because of some subpar choices in story development in chapters just before worsened quality.

    There were also some very mild "patriotism eruptions" in the later chapters, despite author being very respectful to all cultures most of the novel (which is why they are more glaring, despite being mild). And increased use of some usual chinese tropes. That's why different author is one of my suspects.

    It's pretty sad, actually. If quality was maintained and resolution was more complete and gradual, I would have confidently declared this novel one of the best chinese novels that I ever read (worse that Lord of the Mysteries, but almost at Reverend Insanity level).

    If we talking about flaws that were separate from issues with the later parts, then its some specific characters acted somewhat too arrogant and self-confident (to unrealistic degree) to magnify novel admittedly pretty smart faceslaping. And, also, introduction of some villian characters are not smooth and gradual enough.

    This book is the epitome of misunderstanding just like the song Darkness in case of double entendre and I like both.

    Here I express my attitude towards the ending of the novel, so those who do not want to know how it all ended, pass by, even if the ending is hasty, the book is still worth reading!

      The author got tired of writing. The final scenes were clearly, (from my perspective at least) meant to be arcs, spread across another 300-400 chapters but he/she got tired along the way and decided to dump everything in a bid to end the book.
      And by happenstance, ended up sacrificing the literal beauty on the alter of cruel cruel pragmatic info dump.

    Where you read it though?



    But at least the author bothered with solving most of the mysteries within the book.
    ps: find a word replacer from chrome extensions, you'll need it to replace words such as "god rank" with "supreme rank" and some few other words if nuances in word consistency triggers you as much as it does me.
