Raul quickly warms to Fino because of her enthusiasm and sincerity, which remind him of the hard time he had adjusting to "civilian" life after the Demon King was defeated. Top notch novel IMO (if you forgive the pacing / style of the first 100 or so chapters).Keisuke Koumoto Raul Chaser is the main protagonist. I've never seen another novel where the MC seems so human, with his joys and sorrows described in poignant detail (while still being relevant to the story).
Incredible world building, and the MC's character actually grows instead of being a cookie cutter template all the way.
A Sorcerer's Journey - it's sad that QI really bungled on the translation of this novel, leaving people no way to read it except via MTL. 
A lot of other novels have no tension at all, with the MC either being too OP or a too heavy hand with plot armor. Battles that end story arcs are incredibly epic, with chapters regularly keeping you on the edge of your seat as to what happens next.
Archfiend - there are a couple of hiccups to this novel (MC changes cultivation course a bit too often I think, author took a while to get used to his switch from modern setting to proper xianxia / fantasy), but all that is overweighed IMO by the knack the author has of building, keeping, and releasing tension. DD3 isn't as good IMO, the MC is way way OP, storyline was sacrificed in favor of power ups. It's rare to find a novel with detailed group battles in addition to one on ones (most novels focus almost exclusively on the MC), and I really like the cultivation system as well as the variety of abilities. Douluo Dalu II (aka Unrivaled Tang Sect) - I consider it one of the classics, TJSS's best work IMO. Not much repetition, tropes and page fillers like annoying noisy audiences or auctions or spoiled young masters are nowhere to be found. Very interesting initial premise, story line is unique and doesn't take the path of reimagining characters from popular Chinese classics like Investiture of the Gods or Journey to the West like more than a couple of other xianxias I've read. Tales of Herding Gods - ongoing novel. There's always something interesting happening, author keeps of finding ways to add humor to the novel. Cultivation Chat Group - a funny breath of fresh air, especially after you've read more than a couple of xianxias. 
Getting back to topic, my recommendations for must-read novels: (At least up to the point where I read before I grew too disgusted with it) The MC in AoA even asks the chip for the optimum way to go about something. At least Leylin supplies the direction for the computation to take. Age of Adepts is much, much worse in that aspect. Click to expand.WMW isn't so bad in the chip department.
