Any Pure Wuxia Novels?

Any good martial arts stories? People hardly write wuxia these days. I miss it. Nowadays, everyone gets a System and cheats their way to immortality and godhood, with divine physiques and all that. I'm sick of it. It's so boring. I want to feel the thrill of roaming the world with a sword and settling scores with a sense of justice.

Looking for Stories About the Jianghu, Where Both the Hero and Heroine Are Renowned and Powerful

I've read too many stories about court intrigue, so now I want to read about a man and woman traveling through the martial world and building up considerable influence, with plenty of secret identities and the like. No tragic romance, and no misunderstandings. The male lead can be absent too. I like strong female leads and historical romance.

Looking for Martial Arts, Not Immortal Cultivation. Any Recommendations?
