I'm okay~ish with harem as long as the girls/boys ain't brain dead and actually has a story, still I would like to read some good wuxia/xianxia novels without harem once in a while. Can you guys recommend some of your favs. Thanks (b˙◁˙ )b Update Thanks y'all I'll try to read all of them although I did already read some of them before (>.<)
Don’t think xianxia and no harem exists, at least I don’t think I’ve come across one yet. as for wuxia, my favorite would probably be martial arts master
History’s Strongest Senior Brother Record of a mortal’s journey to immortality Forty Milleniums of Cultivation -strictly it kinda feels more like a sci fi than a xianxia, but it’s got a strong focus on different views and perspectives of characters, which kinda counts as ‘Dao’ and cultivation of your mindset Edit: if you want relatively good if kinda same-ish stuff with a likeable non-harem MC, check out I Eat Tomatoe’s novels
This Young Master is not Cannon Fodder Birth of the Demonic Sword My Senior Brother is Too Steady Ascending, Do Not Disturb
Never read ISSTH as for DE I’ll give you that. Then again, IET is notorious for not making harems, it’s always the first or second girl the MC meets and “falls in love with” that ends up being his wife Swallowed star -first girl Lord xue ying - second girl Desolate era - second girl Seeking Flying sword path - first girl Archean eon art - first girl Coiling dragon - second girl Stellar transformation - first girl
Then you should read ISSTH. The MC is literally chasing the same girl even after reincarnation. Even when there are a lot of potential FL.
What is the point of living forever if you can fall in love only once? A xianxia without harem makes no sense...
What a curious request. Almost all wuxia novels don't have harems so almost the entire genre would qualify. It's nearly like asking for an isekai novel where the protagonist goes to another world. The Legend of the Condor Heroes would be a good place to start reading the genre but just about anything other than "the Deer and the Cauldron" would be good.
I Really Don't Want to Defy the Heavens, Seized by the System, Carefree Path of Dreams, Martial Arts Master, Gourmet of Another World, Martial God (Only on here without TL but if you can take the risk to MTL, definitely worth your time), History's Number One Founder, and as said before, ISSTH and just about all IET novels (IET novels all have romance in them somewhere along with parenting so they might be closer to what you're looking for).
