   Reader note

   No romantic pairing, female-oriented wish-fulfillment novel, with a small ensemble cast, a touch of doting on the main characters, rebirth, and a sect with senior brothers and sisters. The relationship between Yan Lang and Chi Fengxin is also quite compelling. Calling it friendship feels like their bond goes beyond that, while calling it love feels like tainting their genuine emotions (not saying love is bad). The female lead, Yan Lang, is not a good person; she's a practitioner of the path of killing, specializing in swordsmanship, talismans, and alchemy. She's ruthless, decisive, and even arguably "selfish" (living for herself). Each character in the story has a very independent personality. For example, Chi Fengxin is a genius in sword formations, flamboyant, known for her signature red robes, meticulous thinking, and ruthless nature. She has excellent chemistry with Yan Lang and is just as "selfish" as her. Her character is so independent she could fill a novel on her own. The plot is intricately woven with foreshadowing. Not a mindless wish-fulfillment novel.

   Follow me to find great books and you won't get lost! These two are both no-romance, female-centric, action-packed novels. The first one is the only female-oriented novel to make it into the top five of the recommendation list. The female lead is similar to a master thief, and the plot is very interesting, with a touch of humor. He thanks everyone along his journey, whether obstacles or mentors, for pushing him to become stronger. The second one is a pure action-packed novel, truly enjoyable to read. I especially love the scenes of punishing the villains. It only recently finished, and despite a hiatus of several years, many people were still waiting for it. Its quality speaks for itself.

    Nobody recommends these two books? They're both really good (the downside: both are unfinished). The first one features a decisive and ruthless female lead, a slow-paced cultivation story, and a genius protagonist who works incredibly hard and steadily. The second one has a system, but the system's cheat codes aren't that great. It's really satisfying when the female lead confronts people! She immediately becomes enemies with the overpowered male lead after transmigrating, but she still confronts him when necessary, quietly develops her strength, and eventually defeats the original male lead!

Regardless of era, gender, or age, everyone is single, with no secret crushes or ambiguous relationships. What I'm seeing now isn't even human. It might not be the most engaging part at first, but it gets better and better as it goes on. Some stories pay homage to the past, while others rewrite history. The more I read, the more I enjoy it.

    This book is great! The female lead has strong morals and is very capable. The individual episodes are exciting, featuring vengeful ghosts blocking cars, man-eating locust trees, weasels demanding lives, Southeast Asian black magic, Ouija boards, ghost marriages, borrowing lifespans from the dead, and trips to the underworld. It also includes a lot of metaphysical and scientific information, with both thrilling and heartwarming moments.

    Three currently being serialized, all pure romance with no romantic pairings. The female lead is incredibly strong, relying on herself and not men. The first is a survival story where she gains pets and friendships. The second involves the female lead building an alliance, leading humanity to fight back against zombies and resume work and production. The third is a system-based shop-opening story where she achieves sales targets and returns to the real world.

    Highly recommend this, everyone!!! 1. The female lead transmigrates and seemingly wins by simply signing in, but in reality, everything the system gives her is already hers!!! (The female lead is from that world). 2. She hoards supplies in the apocalypse; she's not a saint without a romantic partner, and she's the strongest in the apocalypse. 3. The female lead levels up and seizes opportunities by reloading save files; she's a chosen one with incredible luck, and with the perseverance to reload save files like crazy, she'll succeed at anything.

    The first book didn't even have a one-sided love interest in the female lead; she started practicing martial arts in the early to mid-stages, and with someone backing her up, she could practically do whatever she wanted. I didn't like the second book much towards the end; it felt a bit simplistic, though the beginning was great. The third book had a tall, handsome female lead who was a mecha warrior—intelligent and powerful. I'm not sure if the fourth book counts as having no romantic pairing because she's a woman disguised as a man, and her wife is a system pretending to be someone else.

    The first book, "Seeking Songs with Wine," was truly fantastic!! The second was a group portrait of the nation's fate; besides the four main female characters, the other characters were also very well-developed. The third was a short story about a female protagonist who awakens and then goes on a killing spree, though she suffered quite a bit in the beginning.

    It's incredibly good. The female lead doesn't have a single romantic partner, and it's really good at taking down the villains, but it's not vulgar at all. Later on, there's patriotism that really got me fired up. In short, it's extremely good and I highly recommend it.
