   The first book features a very capable female lead, but no one around her is truly devoted to her. All the supporting characters are incredibly intelligent, making it a very compelling palace intrigue novel. The second book features a very capable female lead with strong moral values. The male lead's family dotes on her excessively. The female lead's tragic backstory made me cry many times. The third book is a story about unrequited love. The female lead comes from a bad family and has a crush on the male lead. Later, the male lead finds out and spoils her in every way!

    The female protagonist has lived for nearly two hundred years, is ageless and immortal. She was captured and studied, her blood was drawn, her heart was removed, and she was dissected, but she still didn't die. She doesn't know who she is and lives as she pleases. She kills anyone she doesn't like. Her combat power is extremely high, she can take down the whole field by herself. She has many identities and is respected as a little ancestor by many big shots based on her strength. Even the male protagonist is not as strong as her, and is slightly humble. It's a satisfying story of revenge and face-slapping.
