As the previous list got quite large so I'll add the novels that have less than 80 chapters here!

No description.

Content warning: Mostly r18 for either erotica or brutal description 

Quality Stories with a more dark theme , no romance if possible , absolutely no bl gl yaoi shoune ai  shoujo  josei yuri stuff.... more>>

PS : no. 4.5 " Arrogant Young master template A variation 4" , score : 60 , amazing , meta mc, refreshing trope for a xianxia , and on thr above only it would have gotten 30 points but the execution and cohesion is so well done that it produces synergy,  i had to add 20 , and 10 is my personal bias since this is something new for me.

A list with characters who are fond of plotting against their enemies, are uncovering great schemes and/or of characters who are caught in the schemes of their enemies. ... more>>

Stories with big schemes that will make your mind blow and your head dizzy.

Top 17 are some of the most scheming protagonists imo, only the first three are ranked according to whom I belive are the most schemming of all, the other ones were hard to decide qwq, though they are more or less ranked too. Those guys are really cunning...

The ones more at the bottom are, either not soooo schemming or not really schemming at all, they were caught in other people's schemes and conspiracies, don't know if it would be convinient to point them out to differenciate. <<less

Some have a lighter tone than others. But all of these contain elements like ~complicated relationships, dogblood drama, tragic pasts, betrayal, or deaths. ... more>>

tropes i like: 

♡ cunning protagonists that are calm and smart when they encounter a problem

♡ groveling men that actually gets hold acountable for their past actions and not just get brushed over 

♡ well written female relationships, i don't mind if they have a complicated relationship with each other but it must be written in a way that's organic and not just bc they like the same man 

♡ slow burn but the kind that knows when to stop dragging it out

♡ doting family, i love that stuff. it gives me life reading fluffy family moments

♡ male leads that complement perfectly with the female lead. they don't have to be perfect but they just have to be good for each other <<less

Note: Recently, some of the translation teams have taken their works down (dead links on the content section)  from NU (because NU has grown a lot) however most of them if not all have their own sites and the novels are still available there! So if you search the novels online you can still find them! ;)

P.S. There is also a part 2 with more novels and hidden gems for everyone to read! If interested the second list can be found on my account :)  <<less

List of newer additions to NU, so that I can MTL them later. Also included are machine translated novels on other sites. The quality is unknown, so reader discretion advised. These are mostly CN romcoms set in ancient China.
