As per the title, I'm looking for stories featuring female leads without romance as the main plotline(but I'm fine with romance as a minor plotline). I'm female but I don't quite like reading romance stories. I prefer reading action-adventure stories.
Something like Lady Cultivator. Thank you.
Looking for female lead stories without romance
warmmilktea I highly recommend this --> https://m.webnovel.com/book/11653172006457405
The MC is a girl who transmigrated to a different world and has to pose as a boy. No romance yet (there's 40+ chaps). Tho there's a number of boys interested at the MC. But the MC just doesn't care about them. LOL. Try it if you're interested in fantasy/transmigration/genderbender.
warmmilktea hi. please give my book a chance? https://www.webnovel.com/book/11911622506604705/Good-Girl-Gone-Bad%3A-Queen-of-the-Underworld
Just as heads up, my first couple of tens chapter are all unedited so yeah, expect a bumpy read. T.T
A slow romance is planned for these stories, but it hasn’t even yet started with over two dozen chapters for each story atm.
Girl reincarnated as a tree with a system set in a fantasy world and who’s currently exploring a hidden valley with prehistoric monsters, yeh.

I've reviewed it a few months ago. As far as it was written at that time the only naked bodied shown were those with entrails spilling out.
The MC is definitely very much female. The males are usually very much dead.
warmmilktea promoting my own novel right now, haha.

romance has not played a big part right now, and it's only been hinted occasionally.
it's not action/adventure since it's about an artist, so if you're into slice of life, this should be a good novel for you. though romance might develop more later, so you'll have to be somewhat open to that?
Lady Cultivator and The Empress Livestream
- Edited
warmmilktea +1 for The Empress Livestream. I don't think you will have a true Romance in this novel any time soon. And it is potentially the best transmigration into a daughter of General/Prime Minister/High-ranked official that I have ever seen. However, it is also the darkest, focused on the suffering of many instead of just dealing with the inner courts filled with white lotus, green tea, and moronic families.
After that, you have the serie of Transmigration Counterattack. The "quick-transmigrating-second-female-leads-counterattack", "side-character-transmigrations", "quick transmigration cannon fodder" and others. I don't know if that's what you mean. The "second lead" is filled with romance, the "side character" is more focused on funny things while the "cannon fodder" is far more serious. But they are just small stories with an ongoing plot, so I don't know if it qualifies for what you want. Also, I only picked the three with the highest amount of chapters, others with 100 chapters or so exists, all strangely similar but at the same time, totally foreigner.
Mine has one, but the story is still in starting stages. I never wrote my story initially with romance and don't see my version being penned here having any. Too much world building, diabolical magical realism going on. Plus my girl needs to figure out what her name is, this will soon begin to stir up crap for those around her. Reborn Legacy is the story.

Ah I don't read enough action adventure to recommend much, a lot of good ones have already been said. (like Rmpress' Livestream) But as a fellow female who's tired of the generic romance stories I like and support this thread!
Keep up the reccs so i can increase my own to read library!
Some non main romances in my library are:
Doomsday Wonderland
Legend of Fuyao
Village Girl as Family Head : picked up a general for farming
Some shorter/growing original reads include:
The (Former) Queen's Adventure In The Abyss
Terani Mara
I'm tempted to self promote my own latest writings like others before me but my girls are nothing like Lady Cultivator and lack action( ̄□ ̄;)
Happy readings everyone!
My master has disconnected yet again.
Try these;
•Coming of the Villian Boss
•Empress Livesteam
•Lady Cultivator
•Doomsday Wonderland
•Zombie Sister Strategy
I'm glad I'm not the only girl that hates romance around here
warmmilktea The Next Defender
Thank you for the suggestions! I will check them out! :)
(I'm already reading Lady Cultivator and wanted more stories like it hence the thread)
warmmilktea My story does have romance a sub-plot, but I promise, the main plot is adventure.... Check it out (the title does sound cheesy though, but I'm planning to change it soon since it is super long)
