   Thumbs up! It's not the kind of story where the female lead is constantly overpowered; she gets hurt and experiences pain. Every supporting character is more than just a tool; they all have their own thoughts and schemes. It's not a mindless, wish-fulfillment story where the female lead is cunning and intelligent. There are no derogatory terms for women, no forced abuse of the female lead or supporting characters, and no abuse of women. The diverse portrayal of women is so satisfying!

    This cultivation novel features a female protagonist who holds half the script, killing and killing until she realizes she's killed the wrong people—she acquires all the top-tier resources for cultivation, only to discover she's someone else's pawn. Fortunately, the female protagonist isn't swayed by emotions, adapts quickly, and has good luck, turning the tide. Highly recommended! The author is practically begging for reviews. Please have pity on me, all seven of my books have flopped [crying]

    I've read so many but given up, and these two are the only ones I didn't find awkward. The main reason is that they don't use many modern words.
