   No female lead. I read the first book a year or two ago and it had no female lead. It was a long double-thriller, so there should have been a girl, but she was just an umbrella, and there was no romance. The second book involved girls who either had a grudge against someone, had a boyfriend, or were SR targets. Each of the two books had a very long arc. Overall, I'd give both books a 9-star rating. The third book is probably familiar to everyone. If you couldn't stand it because of the female lead, here's another recommendation: Fairy Tale. The fourth book also has no romance, but it has a younger sister, who is the doll's sister. The girls in several arcs belong to the past, and their meeting is their death. The past saves her, and in the future, she guides him to meet again, but it's death. The fifth book has no female lead, so there's no romance. These three books are 9-star ratings. I must have forgotten to mention the second book because it's so long. The second book is already considered finished.

    Reader note

    The plot is quite humorous, and the early parts resemble a mindless wish-fulfillment novel. However, once you get past the beginning, it's so good you can read it in one go. The characters' self-narration is touching, and even though the protagonist has no cultivation, he manages to find a way out through ingenious methods, such as using a teleportation talisman to send pills into the enemy's stomach. All the actions in the story are logical and well-founded. While the early parts feel like mindless wish-fulfillment, the later additions and descriptions are surprising. The story doesn't feature a protagonist who mindlessly invincible or becomes unstoppable in the face of danger. Instead, the protagonist uses logical and ingenious strategies to find a way to survive and defeat his enemies.

    The first book is all about swords, so who needs a female lead? The ensemble cast is quite good. It's just that the author has a serious writer's block and frequently goes on hiatus, just like that author Gou829. The second book is a new book, but the author writes exceptionally well. The trio of characters are all unique, and I haven't seen any romantic relationships between them and the male lead. There's a spirit, but T-Cat seems to be gay. The third book is my absolute favorite. The beginning was great, but the author went on hiatus, and when they came back, it wasn't as good. I finished it, and there's no female lead. The fourth book, Er Mao's skill speaks for itself. The fifth book, a Western fantasy, is quite appealing. Although I haven't read much, the premise is great. The sixth book, a villainous protagonist with a well-developed character, no female lead. The seventh book, highly recommended! The protagonist is emotionless, absolutely no female lead.
