   I know the answer to this question. These are all excellent works without a female lead that I've read. 1 And 11 are by the same author, and I found them quite enjoyable to read—it's all about revenge! 9 And 10 are also by the same author; they're both quite angsty, but really good and worth reading multiple times. Except for 1, 2, 5, and 8, the rest are completed works. 1, 2, 5, And 11 are a bit darker, so it depends on your personal preference.

The first book features an immortal protagonist and revolves around his daily life with his apprentice (very sweet, trust me). The second book features a protagonist who is a White Tower player, starting by clearing the first dungeon 1000 times (also sweet). The third book features a protagonist who is a moon, infiltrating the human world, but his disguise is later revealed (this ending is super sweet). The fourth book is a sequel to the second; the protagonist is an assassin who gets no work and even debuts in a boy band. Later, the Azure Boat arrives, and the protagonist embarks on another dungeon-clearing journey (just as sweet as the second book). The fifth book features a protagonist in excellent mental condition, as you can tell from the beginning. The sixth book features a protagonist with a world-class destiny at the start, which is very funny (especially chapter 444).

    Although the author didn't explicitly state it in the first book, given Zhou Ke's personality, there would absolutely be no female lead. In the second book, Chang Ge has a severe case of mysophobia (though it disappears later, she's still very clean). Anyway, both books are without romance; the protagonists are both powerful, pure, and aloof (?). Zhou Ke doesn't outwardly show it, but in reality, he's quite self-serving and aloof (of course, he's very good to his friends). As for Liu Li Xian, needless to say (the author practically dedicates half a chapter to the protagonist's aloofness, so if you mind, don't read it; the early chapters are exceptionally well-written, but the later ones feel a bit padded, though in my heart, it's still my top 1).

    I've either finished reading these books or read a lot of them, and they're truly amazing. I can guarantee that all of them are free of any romantic pairings, ambiguity, or unclear descriptions. Even some important supporting characters don't have romantic partners, and they all have ratings above 9.

    First book: Urban supernatural, Bai Yuan, an ordinary person (with a bit of mental illness), who becomes invincible due to the existence of ghost faces, and is quite greedy [smirk]. His teacher is also greedy [laugh]. (I didn't really like the ending, Bai Yuan became an ordinary person again, so you can skip the ending.) (Recommended!) Second book: Li Po, who embarks on a journey to find his father. Later, he met Ye Yang and became partners. It's super sweet! (Recommended!) Third book: Li Hongxing, in order to find out where his uncle is, decides to fight for Gou Yunlu, and finally sings the Yin Boat. His friend Zhou Yi dies with him (I think, it's been too long since I read it). Zhou Yi and Li Hongxing are super sweet together. Fourth book: Er Mao's books need no introduction, very good. The setting of the Hundred Schools of Thought really resonated with me (the beginning is a bit angsty) (Recommended!) Fifth book: Also Er Mao's books, really good (Recommended!) Sixth book: The Gods' Fool's Play, also very good. Seventh book: (Oh no, I don't think I've read it) You guys read it yourselves, tell me what it's about after you finish. Eighth book: Also okay, I haven't finished it, only read the first few chapters and the ending. The ending feels a bit angsty. Ninth and tenth books: Er Mao's books, authoritative! (Recommended!) Eleventh book: 9.9 Points, no need to say more. Twelfth book: Super good!!! (Recommended!)
