   These are all time-travel novels, highly recommended! [Drooling][drooling] First book: It's really super good, an ensemble piece. "That year at the Heroes' Gathering, seven champions emerged, but unfortunately two died, one turned evil, one left after an argument, two became rogue cultivators, leaving only the lively junior brother, who later became the steady senior brother." Don't worry, it's slightly angsty 🤭🤭, but they all come back in the end 😀. The female lead's mission is to conquer the villains. Second book: The female lead transmigrates into a book, conquers the male lead, thinking he has a white moonlight, but actually she is that white moonlight. This book is slightly angsty 🤭🤭, but the ending has a big twist. She doesn't know that her transmigration was actually Mu Zhe exchanging half his heart and all her memories with a god. "I've taken your memories, so you won't remember her anymore. How can we possibly meet again? At that time, for both of us, we'll be nothing more than strangers meeting for the first time. Perhaps we'll just brush past each other, perhaps we'll become enemies. The final outcome... Ha, who knows?" The young man's tone was filled with malice, sending chills down one's spine. More than a god symbolizing light and hope, he seemed like a demon fallen into hell. Hearing this, Mu Zhe gently opened his eyes, his eyebrows slightly raised, his tone filled with absolute confidence: "No matter how much I've forgotten, the moment I meet her again, I will still fall in love with her once more." His expression softened, and he chuckled softly, "I always feel that I was born for her. I came into this world only to love her." (The third book is a redemption story, anyway, it's really good, not angsty, a sweet little story, go read it hard!!!)

Watching the female protagonist navigate the complex web of various factions is quite captivating.

    The first book was truly amazing! I'm currently reading the second one; the female lead orchestrates a deadly trap for everyone involved, and it's incredibly moving (she doesn't die, and it has a happy ending). The numerous tear-jerking moments throughout are also very touching! I highly recommend the third book, although it's a little angsty, but the story of the girls and their friendships is truly wonderful. It feels somewhat like the bonds between the girls in "Palace Wall Willow." In summary: these three books are the best I've read in the last two months. I'm currently experiencing a reading slump in historical romance novels, and these are so good that I haven't been able to find another one yet.

    [Three Kingdoms Fanfiction, No System, No Time Travel, No Cheat Codes] Guaranteed to be Amazing! A work by the author of the physical book under a pseudonym! [Learned] Ma Yunlu: All crows are black, I won't marry anyone! Zhao Yun: Marriage in chaotic times will only lead to disappointment, I won't marry anyone! [Martial Arts Style, Traditional Ancient Romance, Three Kingdoms Fanfiction: The Love Story of Ma Yunlu and Zhao Yun] [1v1, No Time Travel, No Cheat Codes, No System, A Match Made in Heaven, Beautiful, Strong, and Tragic X Beautiful, Strong, and Tragic Single Female Lead, Mutual Redemption] Also known as: "The Legend of Yunlu in the Three Kingdoms", "The Unofficial Biography of Zhao Yun in the Three Kingdoms", etc. The lonely moon shines only because I haven't seen it. The dim starry river only because I haven't seen you. This book showcases the journey of Ma Yunlu, daughter of Ma Teng, the governor of Tianshui, sister of Ma Chao, and wife of Zhao Yun, from a young girl to a female general, and tells her love story with Zhao Yun. (This story employs a dual narrative: the romance unfolds when the male and female protagonists are together, while their growth and development, along with the historical events and wars, unfold when they are apart.) Most historical figures are covered in this book, but its unique feature is its female perspective, offering more insights and perspectives from a female viewpoint… It provides a fresh interpretation of the well-known stories of the Three Kingdoms period from a new angle. (There may be instances where the plot deviates from the timeline of either the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" or "historical records" for plot purposes; the overall direction is similar to the novel. Readers who are sensitive to this should proceed with caution.)
