Xie Yin Xue is on the brink of death, yet he clings to life. In a desperate bid to survive, Xie Yin Xue, with no prior knowledge of exorcism, takes on a part-time job as a celestial master, helping individuals resolve paranormal occurrences. In return, clients are required to share a month of their lifespan with him and bear half of his afflictions. His venture isn’t smooth sailing, prompting Xie Yin Xue to join a game named “Eternal Lock”. Once you’re in, failure to clear the game results in death. However, many participants are willing to endure temporary pain in exchange for extended life. Inside the game, Xie Yin Xue extends his life by aiding others to clear levels. But due to his overpowering abilities, players often mistake him for a game NPC. Xie Yin Xue doesn’t mind, as long as it doesn’t hinder his pursuit of longevity. That is, until the day he meets a real NPC… NPC: “Evil ones are molded from water, the good from mud. The sight of the wicked refreshes me, while the righteous seem foul and repelling. Yet, Mr. Xie, you’re different from both; you have a delightful fragrance.” Xie Yin Xue: “Are you challenging me?” Xie Yin Xue: “?” “If the King of Hell decrees your death at the third watch, I can keep you alive till the fifth.”

My Thoughts on I Can Keep You Alive Till The Fifth Watch
"I Can Keep You Alive Till The Fifth Watch" promised a unique blend of fantasy, horror, and romance, and after diving in, I can see why it's garnered a dedicated following. The premise alone – a calm protagonist voluntarily entering dangerous scenarios – set it apart from typical "dragged into a game" narratives.
First Impressions
Initially, I was intrigued by the world-building and the dynamic between the main characters. The shift in perspectives took a little getting used to, but it ultimately added depth to the story. The MC's seemingly overpowered nature, bordering on comical, was a fun twist. I quickly became invested in unraveling the mysteries surrounding his motivations and the nature of the "game" he's participating in.
What Works Well
The story shines in its creative scenarios and the engaging interactions between the characters. I found myself particularly drawn to the unique settings and the slow-burn romance. The author does a great job of creating suspense and intrigue, keeping me guessing about what dangers lie around each corner. I appreciated that the MC, despite his initial advantages, faces increasing limitations as the story progresses, raising the stakes and forcing him to rely on his wits and relationships. The side characters, while perhaps not as fleshed out as I would have liked, added color and humor to the overall narrative. The ending, while perhaps not universally loved, provided a satisfying sense of closure.
Areas of Concern
While I enjoyed the overall experience, I did notice some inconsistencies in the plot and character development. The pacing felt a bit uneven at times, and certain plot points felt somewhat underdeveloped. The characters don't develop, they stay the same through the story. Also, the introduction of past lives in the extras felt unnecessary and somewhat detracted from the established relationship.

The engaging characters, intriguing plot, and unique world-building make it a worthwhile investment for fans of fantasy, romance, and suspense. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a story that's both thrilling and thought-provoking.
