   It's rare to find a historical fiction story without a romantic pairing. The female lead is independent and doesn't compromise herself or suffer losses. She does many things primarily for her own well-being, is not particularly helpful, and only intervenes within her control. She's an orphan from a martyr's family, raising her young nephew. She's of high seniority, the village has strong clan ties, and her uncle is the clan chief.

   1 And 2 are about cultivation, with the female protagonist in 1 possessing dual systems and her own power. In 4, the female protagonist kills the original male protagonist at the beginning, meaning the author only wrote up to her coronation ceremony for some reason. In 2, the female protagonist is favored by the Heavenly Dao, loved by the Heavenly Dao in every world; it's recommended to start reading from the second world (in some worlds, the female protagonist has a lover). In 3, the female protagonist invites the No. 1 Of the Otherworld to do missions in smaller worlds; personally, I think it leans more towards a fast-paced, slice-of-life story. In 5, the female protagonist has a younger sister; both sisters are highly skilled in martial arts, and the family gets along very well. There are also other female characters, each with their own strengths and weaknesses; personally, I think it's more like a female ensemble piece written from the female protagonist's perspective.

    I have high standards and dislike books where the female lead has ambiguous relationships with others and is overly subservient to men, lacking any sense of female identity. The first book had excellent character development for the female supporting characters, a large number of female characters, and a very exciting plot with plenty of jokes. The downside was that the author used derogatory terms like "TMD" in the early chapters, but this was largely eliminated later. Also, this book is still being serialized, making follow-up updates painful. The second book also featured many female characters, and while the plot might not be as good as the first, it avoided ambiguous relationships. I read it a long time ago, but I don't recall any major flaws. The third book had the highest level of female identity, without any derogatory terms, and the female characters were generally the highlights. The downside was that it was still being serialized, but the plot was quite exciting. The last book didn't compare to the first three in terms of plot and female character development, but it was the only historical fiction that didn't favor men. The female lead treated both men and women equally, unlike some novels where the female lead is portrayed as having immense strength but only knows how to fight other women. This book treated both female and male villains equally. If you want to read historical fiction, I recommend this one; other female-oriented historical fiction with strong female leads is really just a facade.

    I highly recommend these three books. Absolutely no romance, time travel, cultivation, comedy, decisive action, no saintly figures, independent cultivators, strong female leads, and a leveling-up storyline. No transmigration, no system, and no doting on the main characters.
