   These are all single-female-lead novels, the kind where characters support each other and grow stronger, and the female leads all have a significant amount of screen time. The first one leans towards a slice-of-life comedy about cultivation. The second one features dual rebirths, with the female lead gradually winning over her empress master. The third one has a female lead who is extremely jealous; she gets incredibly sour at the slightest hint of jealousy—she's just too adorable!
