    This is an ensemble piece featuring supernatural abilities, with a single female lead. Each character in the main group is fully fleshed out and developed. This is a new book by the author, Yi Bin, and updates are guaranteed. Low quality doesn't guarantee popularity; my reading time speaks volumes about my enjoyment of this book.

    The first book features the male and female leads hiding their identities from each other, a typical sweet and angsty romance. Sigh. The second book starts with a forced marriage to a demon empress. Both have a single female lead and high ratings. [Smirk][Smirk][Makes face][Cool]

    [Top post][Top post][Top post] This is a single female lead story. The female lead has a lot of screen time. She appears at the beginning and stays by the male lead's side the whole time. Moreover, the female lead is not the male lead's appendage. She will work hard to improve her own strength.
