I have two Wuxia dramas in mind where the female lead do a lot of fighting and action scenes but there's quite a few episodes they don't appear on scene at all. Not sure if you are OK with that...

The first is https://mydramalist.com/402-return-of-the-condor-heroes-2006 where the female lead is Crystal Liu Yifei - you can check out some of her action scenes in that series from this clip:

The second drama is https://mydramalist.com/9180-flying-swords-of-dragon-gate- and the female lead is Mao Jun Jie, who is actually trained in martial arts. A action demo reel of her which featured quite a few fight scenes of her from the FSODG drama above can be found at:

As FSODG 2015 is not as well known (the fact that the lead villain actor was busted on drug charges thus forcing the producers to delete all his scenes and reshoot much of the series might have something to do with that) I will also point you to a clip o featuring the opening and ending theme song of the series:

I've seen a few with some action from the female's side (as far as I can remember):

Liu Cecilia's roles also tend to be the strong female one's - Sound of the Desert, Love In Lost Times, Chinese Paladine 3 (lots of great actors but I didn't have time to watch yet), Legend of the Condor Heroes 2008,

Eternal Love (ten miles of peach blossom) - I think this one is a much watch and the main actress (Yang Mi also great actress) had different characters played here.

The King's Woman

The Journey of Flower (Zhao Zanilia also tends to play powerful characters)

Ha Ji Won's dramas - she tends to choose strong female characters like in Empress Ki, and maybe King2Hearts but it's not historical

Queen Seon Duk

Sword and Flower

Love at First Fight

Ichi (japanese)

My Wife Is A Gangster - but it's not historical, more action-comedy

maybe Shinobi (with nakama yukie), The Legend (kdrama), Mu Lan
