    I'm delighted by reading The Legenday Mechanic. For some, the novel is trash and does not merit such high recognition. There's many genres, but I won't dwell in that.

    I would like to read some novel where the MC scams people, but a moderate extend. I enjoy how Han Xiao power grows when he 'scams people'.
    Basically, I just like the way he grew so fast in such a short period of time, I might be a little biased, but I do enjoy novels where the protagonist don't go full 'work hard' mode and lasts a millenia (800 or 1200 chapters), just to be sent to another dimension where the power level they attained is basically a normal non gifted/ without talent for cultivation teenager's strength.

    tl;dr
    MC that grows fast, scams people, has followers/sect, is famous, goes undercover and messes up with big and powerful organizations and comes back unscathed. If possible, with 250 chapters translated at least or more. I'd reconsider if the novel is truly worth it.

    Do comment your suggestions!

    purple font is horrible for something you want people to read. I think I am speaking for most users when I say that purple doesn't have a lot of contrast with the grey background of the dark theme most people use

    ISSTH fits the bill more or less I would say. The Strongest System completely fit, but he gets strong fast and it's also completely translated

    I'd love to recommend God Level Demon as it's exactly what u asked for. But it's only on LNMTL, so... :blobsad:

    P.S. Just in case u decide to get adventurous, it's pretty easy to understand.

    I've seen this title crop up too many times in my recommendations feed that I can't ignore it anymore. I remember reading the first 3 to 5 chapters.
    it was an absolute worthless piece of shit novel/manga. I regretted reading.
    Now, almost a year later, this is the umpteenth time this novel has been mentioned. I went back to manga and I can't get past the second chapter. If I can't get past chapter two of the manga, what is worth reading in the novel?

    I know it's a bit off from those cultivation novels, but The Legend of Sun Knight has a mc who do scams others and do many shameless things, with a major plot twist, and a strong bromance, also, it's complete.
    I can never forget how Sun kept saying to his subordinate how it's wrong to harm people and how the god of light can see everything..... only for his subordinate say that they will make sure to hide their identity and use a sac to beat people....... with was exactly what Sun wanted, he really haven't chosen a wrong subordinate :ROFLMAO:

    The starting feels pretty shit. 100+ chapters is when things get rolling. If you judge based on 2 chapters of manhua, well, it's your preference then.
    The real LLS begins after 400 something chapters in novel tbh. As for manhua, it is garbage just like most of them. Why would you even read that shit?

    I'll give it a go. I've read worst novels just to make a judgement, it's unfair I dumped LLS right off the bat.

    if you mean like, smart psychology or detail scam, i can't help you.
    But if you mean bullshiting until the other believes you: Ultimate Scheming System. MC grows fast, scams people (with bullshiting and misunderstandings), is famous, goes undercover and messes up with big and powerful organizations. Dont remember if he ever got in danger but last time i read he's fine. 427 chapters translated.
    Edit: maybe change the title to scamming MC? Cause i was going to recommend Lightning Empress Maid for unique mc
