Having Met a Gentleman, How Could I Not Be Glad? By Qing Xuan (Mostly Female-Led Fantasy Cultivation Novels)
After years of reading, there aren't many books that I truly like. Even fewer have a heroine with just the right balance of intelligence and personality: she shouldn't be weak and helpless, but she shouldn't be so ruthless that her values are completely warped either. When a story gets that balance right, the character is bound to shine.

A Veteran Bookworm's Female Cultivation Reading List
After years of reading, I've read quite a few female-led cultivation stories where the heroines focus on their path to immortality instead of romance. I can't stand stories where the heroine loses all reason the moment she meets the male lead, or fluffy romance novels dressed up as cultivation stories. You can rest assured there are absolutely no books like that on this list. Come on in! P.S. I feel bad that most of my recommendations are either new or on hiatus. So much for saying you can rea

Cultivation Heroines: Odd Tastes, No Popular Fluff
I don't read much on Qidian, and almost everything I read is cultivation fiction. I don't like overly sappy romance. Most of these have no male lead, or the male lead barely features. I prefer new and niche books 😘😘😘 JJ list: Cultivation: I'm the Female Lead ← A native-born heroine with no rebirth, fighting to make her way (originally a harem-leveling story with a womanizer and his harem).

Fantasy, Sci-Fi, and Xianxia with Female Leads, No Romance
There are already so many romance novels with female protagonists, but I just don't enjoy them! This list recommends female-led stories without romance, mainly featuring strong women. There are all kinds of fantasy, xianxia, otherworldly, sci-fi, and post-apocalyptic stories, so have a look and find what you like. The list is limited to 50 books, so I update it from time to time. Feel free to recommend books in the comments, and I'll check them out. Sorry about the limit. P.S. Because of the li
Books I Enjoy (⊙O⊙)
Most of these feature strong female leads, and there are some quick transmigration stories too.
No Romance Series
Whether the protagonist is male or female, it seems like falling in love automatically turns them into hopeless romantics. Even in an apocalyptic world, they have to fall in love and run away while pregnant. Even in a cultivation world, they can be all lovey-dovey and then ascend to another realm without a hitch. It's as if the whole world exists just for romance. I've had enough of this, so now I only read stories without romance.

Independent Immortal Heroines Beyond the Mortal World
With a cool eye, I watch the world grow corrupt, while devoting my whole heart to the pursuit of the Great Dao. Every question I ask myself, every struggle between the immortal and mortal worlds: in today's world of cultivation, full of intrigue, will one transcend the mundane, or draw even closer to it? Or will this become an even more naked, blood-soaked age of chaos?! Skin white as snow, graceful as a maiden; no need for the five grains, living on wind and dew; riding the clouds and driving a

The concept of the book is very good. The heroine was framed and came to the Shinto Continent to revive her reputation as a Qi Refiner. What a good idea. However, the heroine used her spiritual sense to clearly hear other people's conspiracies. I thought the heroine had a way to deal with it. As a result, the heroine has no solution. Leave alchemy alone and don't think of a solution. Do you have to compete with others in poetry? Articles are written to suit the occasion, and songs and poems are written to suit the occasion. If you don't understand other people's historical stories, customs, and actual facts, what should you write? Do you write goose goose goose? Do you think that writing about goose, goose, and goose can lead you to the top? ? ? As a result, the article also revealed that he had plagiarized Yongliu and used it to get close to a Taoist master. I'm done with it. As a result, Daojun saw the heroine dying in front of his eyes, and there should be applause here. *** It's not easy to say that the best thing is like water, which benefits all things without fighting. Logically speaking, this sentence should be talking about a person who is gentle and does not fight, or a person who acts behind his back without asking for gratitude and is indifferent to fame and fortune. You, the heroine, are always on edge, taking the cauldron even though you have the ability to do so, not warning your benefactor when he falls into the conspiracy, and you really don't deserve to be in the limelight just to show off. Abandoned.
The heroine thought that Qingyang cared about her and would save her after seeing her call for help, but in fact it was her own fault. Qingyang's words made it very clear that he asked for nothing but Jiu Miao. Everyone understood what Qingyang meant. Only the heroine thought that the only thing Qingyang wanted was herself, so her cousin secretly thought that she would kill the heroine to get Jiu Miao for Qingyang. The heroine thought it was great that she had become a god, but when a cousin, a cousin, and a demon were besieging her, she had no choice but to hold on to the protective shield and wait for death. At least the two brothers and sisters were not much lower than her in cultivation. There were not many people with such strength in the family. Judging from these two points, the heroine's IQ is definitely below the average level. Isn't it a right choice for such a woman to die? God can do evil, but she can't live if she does it herself.
I don't understand why the heroine was so distracted in the examination room. Is she pretending to be cool just because she can plagiarize our thousands-year-old Chinese culture?
After reading forty or fifty chapters, I abandoned the book. . . It's so verbose, I don't even know what the heroine is thinking.
I was drunk, I originally thought it was a cultivator, but after reading it, I realized that the parents were short-lived, depressed, and gave up.
The writing is really wordy, is it about spiritual practice? Or a poetry conference? Departing from the topic, I used dozens of chapters to write poetry competitions to persuade people to quit, and to persuade them to quit.
Cultivation of Immortality makes you feel like writing a house fight, I'm convinced!
It feels like a good book that has been buried (the feeling of an old bookworm who has been reading fantasy novels for nearly 8 years). It is a pity that I have not been able to take revenge. But it is normal. When you were an ant, you were defeated by other ants. Later, when you became a human, would you specifically seek revenge on the ant who defeated you? It may be that you ended it smoothly without going out of your way.
Shinto is more like the ancient feudal society, so I hate Shinto and cannot accept that the heroine is a cultivator and still thinks Shinto is good. There is also the fact that many of the realms of immortality are separated between cultivators and mortals. Mortals have their own kingdom. Although there are mortals and immortals who live together, those mortals can only dream of it, because future generations can practice. The author insists on writing that mortals and immortal cultivators are all together and precarious to express the goodness of Shinto, and he is speechless and helpless.
I personally read it and thought it was good! There are no surprises. It has become stable since the heroine won Hua Haomeng.
