Any High-Quality Alternate-History Novels with Excellent Writing?
If possible, I want a perfect ten out of ten.
High Intelligence, Cunning Plans, Masterful Schemes, Treating the World Like a Chessboard
Looking for a novel with a protagonist like Murong Li from The Legend of Qin: someone who treats the world as a chessboard and all living beings as pieces, plans everything out, and plays life like a game, but is willing to become a piece on the board himself when necessary.
Alternate History, High-IQ Characters, Military Conflict, and Strategic Showdowns
The protagonist defeats opponents through high intelligence rather than mindlessly overpowering them.
High Intelligence, Calm, and Powerful Protagonist (Xianxia)
Any xianxia novels with a powerful, intelligent protagonist? Pay attention, I mean xianxia, not something like Yin Nian.
Fantasy, Xianxia, and Underrated Gems
Fantasy and Xianxia Novels That Are Good for a Long Read
Looking for books similar to Realm of the Dark Night. Something immersive, with a tightly plotted story. This one, Realm of the Dark Night, is pretty good.
Looking for Wuxia or Xianxia, No System Stories. Any Recommendations?
Preferably something about Golden Core, Nascent Soul, or sword immortals.
Any Cultivation Tragedies? I’m Out of Things to Read, Everyone!
I don't mind whether there's rebirth or not! The main thing is that it has to be heartbreaking, the kind that makes your heart ache! It has to make you want to keep reading!

It should be just a small world now. Although the plot of the small world has not been revealed yet, from the key space, it can be seen that this is probably a part of the small world. I am actually looking forward to it.
It's a book that needs to be read with your brain, and the plot is very exciting in the later stages.
The writing is exquisite and full of details, and it can be seen that a lot of care has been taken. Good works must be shared.
It's a fascinating thing to watch, but you still need to use some brains to watch it.
It looks good so far. I wonder what will happen to Wei Lai in the future. I am looking forward to it.
I was a little confused. At first, Wei Lai's name made me think that he was from the future, but later I found out that he was not, but the appearance of the key showed that Wei Lai was from the future!
At least you have to stand from the perspective of justice and do all kinds of evil to the people along the way. You are destined to not win.
Human nature, machinations, strategizing, and decisive victory thousands of miles away!
Did Wei Lai and Qi Qingyao not love each other enough? Otherwise, what if we were seen holding hands? Still not enough
A book with reasonable logic and great suspense.
