    Hi, I'm wondering if a novel like this even exist?

    The History's Strongest Senior Brother and The History's Number 1 Founder both have an MC who generally bashes the stereotype MC of chinese novels. I love these two novels because I find the generic '-xia MCs' annoying and shallow.

    So, I'm just wondering if a Female Version (Female MC) exists?

    While I do like some stories with the whole Fem MC transmigrates to ancient times then goes BOOM! Prodigious Talent was exposed left and right... I guess this summary from a certain novel will explain it all...

    '...Want to ravage her? She laughs as she will soon teach them how to behave themselves! Magic is amazing? Her Five Lightning’s Bombardment Talisman will turn you into ashes! Medication is very incredible? With one furnace of medicinal pills, useless can also become genius! A vigorous army of a million is very ferocious? With Scattering Beansprout Soldiers, all of you can slowly play!...'

    These kinds of novels are basically a '-xia MC' turned Female.

    Can anyone recommend some novels that basically deviates from this 'Prodigious F!MCs that seeks revenge left and right'? Or Better yet, is there even a novel where the MC recognizes the setup but doesn't follow through with it?

    I don't mind if it's a Chinese, Japanese, or Korean. Just no RRL.

    The Ancestor of our Sect Isn’t Acting like an Elder

    It's gender bender though.

    There is one tho I don't know what the title is. Basically, the Female MC only cares about survival in a world where female disciples are just to be married off. Its a second chance novel too.. I'm not really sure if about the other events buts that's what I remember.

    My disciple died yet again

    A novel with all the xianxia tropes you can think of in one novel (Female disciple, sometimes the strongest, sometimes the weakest)

    Only novel that's remotely similar to that is, My Disciple Died Yet Again.
    You may find something if you try searching similar novels to that.

    I will have to third My Disciple Died Yet Again

    It makes fun of a lot of the generic protagonists, and the MC is someone who draws the line at killing. Because, she actually considers human life to be important (shocking in a novel, I know).

    so well, i have some questions...
    do you still want it to be the xianxia genre?
    if no, have yoy tried the 'reincarnated as villainess girl' stories? the 'reliving life again' stories?

    what genres are you looking for?

    Whatever genre set in Ancient times or Other World.

    I think I already read all the Villainess Noble Girl stories, so unless it's a newly translated novel, I know it already.
