    This book is amazing and perfectly matches your requirements. The protagonist is ruthless and decisive, completely devoid of any saintly qualities, and there's no gender distinction. It's incredibly satisfying to read.

I'm a robot who accidentally transmigrated into the body of a demonic sect leader. As someone well versed in the tropes of human cultivation novels, I knew exactly what to do. To keep the sect out of the turmoil between the righteous and demonic paths, I announced that we'd be sealing off the mountain. To deal with all the usual cultivation-world schemes, I issued five new sect rules: 1. No relieving yourself wherever you please. 2.

    I followed this series for a long time back then! The updates were very slow! The main character was very famous! The Azure Emperor, Qin Changqing, had a rather cold personality! Arrogant, no explanation needed! Decisive in killing, definitely not a saint! He was often misunderstood, but people figured it out themselves! Why should the Azure Emperor need to discuss killing with you!
