Her family was wiped out overnight, but she escaped while cultivating elsewhere and embarked on a path of seeking the truth and revenge. She helps a ghost bride, helps a mother who lost her child find her child, and relays messages for a couple who died unjustly… She goes to court and into the inner quarters, all to find the truth. Behind a series of bizarre events, she discovers a conspiracy hidden in the Great Liang Dynasty, and the deaths of her family are also related to this conspiracy. If the conspiracy succeeds, the country will be destroyed, but the mastermind is none other than the high and mighty emperor. Her entire family of loyal martyrs died unjustly; she kills the emperor, not only for her family but also for the common people. PS: The female protagonist is not overly mature; she is intelligent and clear-headed when reasoning, but somewhat oblivious to romance.

    This is a series of metaphysical novels by Xiaoxu, and they're quite classic. Each book has independent characters and plots, and the cameo appearances by characters are very interesting. I think the best one is *Lifelike*. However, I still recommend reading them in order; it'll be more enjoyable. *I Am a Hermaphrodite* → *I Am a Female Teacher* → *I Am a Female Fortune Teller* → *Lifelike* → *Firefly All Beings*

    1. The content is clean, concise, and doesn't drag! The female lead doesn't feel aloof or detached from reality, and there are no awful relatives. What I'm most satisfied with is that there's no overly sweet romance with a rich young master (I'm tired of the typical female lead-centric storylines where she's in a strong-versus-strong romance with the current or future head of the most powerful family in Kyoto). 2. Highly recommended! It features multiple beautiful male and female leads, a mystical ancestor, and the male lead recovering energy through close contact. Everyone is handsome! The female lead is a foodie with a nickname, "Master" (Big Lion), hahaha [smirk].

    The first book is highly recommended. It features a lot of live-streaming in the early stages, interspersed with various plot elements. I've read it several times. The author's other works are also excellent, a true blessing for readers of metaphysical novels. There's another one called "Opening the Coffin to Find Joy," which is also very good. The second book has a very exciting plot, similar to a female-centric novel. I forgot if there's a male lead, but if there is, he has a very small role. I recommend reading it. The third book I read a long time ago, and I've forgotten what it was about, but it's in my reading list. Judging from the title, it should also be a metaphysical novel. You could check out the synopsis. Different strokes for different folks; these three books have different characteristics, so there's bound to be one you'll like!
