   A fan of CP-free (no pairing) fantasy novels is here to recommend some books! ① My first time reading a super-rich novel, a time-travel to the Republic of China era with a system, the writing is pretty good, but it's still new with only 93 chapters; ② A quick transmigration story with interdimensional trading, covering various themes and independent unit stories, quite enjoyable; ③ A post-apocalyptic business novel, with itinerant shop openings; ④ Similar to ③, this one has a great plot, but it's still ongoing, currently at 300+ chapters; (③ and ④ are pure business novels, no infrastructure development or affiliation with any faction); ⑤ A post-apocalyptic disaster novel, the female lead is a god-like lone wolf, with pet plants (that don't hold her back); ⑥ A time-travel to ancient times to escape famine, also a lone wolf story, the plot is pretty good, currently at 500+ chapters (but the updates are getting slower); ⑦ A cultivation novel with a save-save system, fighting against the Celestial Dragons, lighthearted and funny.

    [No romance + ruthless characters] (One-sentence summary: A story where the villain uses the "final scene" trope in a novel, only to be swiftly defeated.) She once thought that the "final scene" was the end of the story, until the morning light pierced the lies on the ruins of the sect. As the sole survivor of "The Six Luminaries of Tian Shu," Bu Ci personally buried five of her fellow disciples. In that battle, the immortal sect misjudged the situation, and five of the six luminaries perished, leaving only the eldest sister alive. To soothe the readers' lingering emotions, the author wrote an extra chapter: Everything was just a mortal stage. On the day of the final scene, the six removed their makeup and went their separate ways. But they didn't know that the villain had already transformed "final scene" into a demonic illusion. For a hundred years, their memories were sealed, and they thought they were just modern actors who had finished filming, unaware that every daily action was a real massacre of their fellow disciples—pouring tea was a severing throat, flicking a sleeve was shattering a pill, and the sect was engulfed in bloodshed amidst laughter. When the morning light once again illuminated the cultivation world, they finally awoke. But then they saw the sacred mountain collapse, corpses strewn across the fields, and realized with horror that their so-called "modern life" was a collective illusion that had lasted for a century. There was no time travel, no theatrical performance, only the horrific massacre of their entire family, created by their own hands after their perceptions were distorted. "This sword will bury our century-long dream." Bu Ci pointed his sword at the heavens, a single stroke of frost chilling fourteen provinces. —The spring breeze, though cut down, has not returned; all those who were once friends have turned to dust beneath the sword.
