   In the first book, it wasn't the female lead who went mad, but her brother. In the second book, the female lead was mad from beginning to end—a madness that shocked everyone, a madness that even God wanted to kill. The third and fourth books both feature characters who are world-weary; the third book has a somewhat popular female lead, while the fourth book is entirely about the female lead using her abilities to make those who looked down on her start to admire her.

    Yes, these eight books are also super good. Okay, the first one perfectly matches my image of a female protagonist cultivating the ruthless path. Unlike other novels that use this label but have a male lead and various family ties, making it all complicated, this one's female lead isn't a saint either. Highly recommended! The second one really makes me love Lin Du's aloof and cool demeanor. That nickname is refreshing, and it kept coming back to me as I read. The third one has a very well-developed female lead—strong yet quirky, it's really good. The fourth one has a clear and logical plot, not dragging on like other female-centric novels with lots of misunderstandings. In this one, the female lead defeats the fake Heavenly Dao through her own efforts and successfully ascends to immortality. Also highly recommended. The fifth one's female lead is decisive and efficient, cultivating step by step through her own hard work. Book 6 is also very good. The female protagonist transmigrates to the cultivation world and is determined to die. It's really interesting how the souls of the two madmen, the male and female protagonists, collide. The plot is fresh and fast-paced, and the female protagonist is world-weary but has unparalleled combat power, making it super enjoyable. Book 7 is also a masterpiece, especially the family relationships in it, which really touched me. I highly recommend checking it out.

Reborn from a World-Weary Life, the Female Supporting Character Sweeps the Table and Kills Wildly" Book Synopsis [A seemingly weak but actually ruthless villainous demon emperor x a world-weary, insane princess who'll fight anyone who disagrees] Chu Cige just wanted to quietly quit the game on Earth. But the moment she breathed her last, she transmigrated into a book, becoming the female supporting character princess, a stepping stone for the main character. System mission: Eliminate the main character group. System cheat: Immortality. Chu Cige, who practically wore her world-weariness on her sleeve: ... So, while others were cautious and meticulous in their missions, solely for survival, she always held onto one belief: The protagonist dies or she dies! The vicious protagonists, enjoying the privileges of the heavens, gradually understood one thing: Don't fight Chu Cige! She's really fearless! Yun Yanchen, burdened with immense hatred, approached her with a humble and ingratiating attitude, but in reality, he harbored malice, only wanting to see her die in agony. Gradually, he discovered that this was her pursuit. At first, he stood by, enjoying the passing of his enemy's life. Later, he went crazy and held her tightly, his voice hoarse and trembling: "Chuchu, don't go..." (The female lead is depressed and world-weary, but invincible.)

    The female lead in this one was so boring, she committed suicide, I don't know if that counts, but it's really good. It's the kind of story where everything is carefully planned and scheming.

    I guess this counts. Anyway, the story reveals that the female lead is the last god of the world, both a god and a ghost… well, more like a human-turned-god-ghost. She's actually a bit insane, but hides it very well, and the author didn't really describe that aspect (as far as I remember). The first book is set in China, and the second is set abroad. Because the rules are different, she can't fully utilize her abilities in the China story unless she doesn't want to be human anymore. In comparison, the foreign story, being under invasion and with its chaotic rules, is a bit more exciting than the China story. It's a no-romance, rule-based supernatural story, leaning towards an ensemble cast and a touch of apocalypse, with one secondary romance.
