Looking for books like The Cultivation World's Number One Sickly Beauty (Andu Wushuang). I want a well-written ensemble cultivation story with a wuxia feeling and a sense of chivalry. No quick transmigration, and no goofy female leads. I'd like it to feel very historical, too. It seems like only Lin...

This novel features a strong female protagonist. The heroine is remarkably clear-headed and intelligent throughout, constantly escaping danger and possessing a detached, independent air. Modern women should be their own strong, independent women! The protagonist, Lin Du, has a somewhat androgynous character. The main plot involves her transmigrating to a cultivation world and extending her life by saving those obsessed with romance. It has a system, but it's not an infinite flow story. Each story involving these "romancers" is interconnected and full of witty remarks. The beginning is filled with playful banter, like, "Sister, if I were your brother, I would definitely save money!"—It's all very funny. At first, I thought it was a silly, lighthearted story, but as I read on, something felt off. Why all the talk about the system? It turns out that while the main plot revolves around saving romance, there's a hidden subplot: saving the world. The system in this book is actually the female protagonist's terrifying system from her past life—it's her own past life. She's scheming against herself, trying to uncover various conspiracies behind the mission of saving the brain-dead. Sure enough, she uncovers a massive conspiracy: their world shouldn't have had any evil spirits in the first place; there's a traitor in their religion who deliberately wants to destroy the heavens. It gave me goosebumps! The female protagonist's master is incredibly handsome. When I was listening to the audiobook, I thought her master's AI voice was quite pleasant. I initially thought he was the male lead, but later I found out he was. The monk is the male lead, but that's okay. He's quite handsome too. The novel starts off lighthearted, then unfolds with one conspiracy after another. All the characters are very well-developed, giving the impression that even supporting characters have their own stories. The villains aren't purely evil; they have reasons for turning bad, which is somewhat regrettable.
