   These books currently all lack a female lead. I won't go into the first book, "The Lying God," I think you've already read it. The male protagonist in the second book is truly cold-blooded, the kind who casually kills his enemies and wipes out their entire families; he's intelligent enough to do so. The third and fourth books don't feature cold-blooded male protagonists, but they're incredibly good. Don't miss them if you can't handle it! The fifth book, well, it's about the protagonist single-handedly managing the entire cultivation world. Everyone in it has their own distinct personality, which makes it very engaging. PS: This is not a BL novel.

    First book: Needless to say, The Illusionist is awesome! The second book: It's a female-centric story, currently without a male lead. The third book: It's very good. The author also wrote another book, which touches on the topic a little bit in this one, but it doesn't really affect the overall experience at the moment. There's currently no female lead. The fourth book: The beginning was quite good; the protagonist was just surviving in a small village, but recently a character who seems to be the female lead has appeared. Fifth book: I haven't finished reading it yet, it should have no female lead.
