[The protagonist is adored by everyone, with everyone harboring one-sided feelings for him. There may be a love-triangle showdown, but there is one true top.]
Lin Yesheng was once the strongest cultivator in the world of immortal cultivation, just one step away from ascending. But right before he could ascend, a bolt of heavenly lightning struck him and made him transmigrate. When he opened his eyes again, he had been reborn inside a novel about the wealthy and entertainment worlds, as the cannon-fodder ex-wife of a domineering CEO.
In the original plot, the cannon-fodder ex-wife entered the entertainment industry to prove himself, only to run into the protagonist's love interest on a talent show and become nothing more than a foil. In the end, the CEO fell deeply in love with the protagonist's love interest and kicked his cannon-fodder ex-wife to the curb.
But everything changed after Lin Yesheng arrived.
On a talent show, Lin Yesheng read fortunes and caught ghosts on a livestream. He even tried to give a protective talisman to a judge, warning that disaster was coming. The judge turned him down, only for something to really happen to him?
On a film set, they were supposed to be shooting a xianxia drama, but an actual monster appeared. Lin Yesheng had no choice but to slay it in front of the cameras. When the show aired, everyone praised the special effects, while the director wiped the cold sweat from his brow and thought, Those weren't special effects...
On a haunted-house variety show, what should have been an ordinary escape room became the scene of a supernatural incident. All the fake ghosts turned real. With everyone trapped and unable to escape, Lin Yesheng somehow pulled out a sharp sword and held it before him. "Everyone, be careful. Get behind me."
Over time, netizens realized that Lin Yesheng, the celebrity who had built a "Taoist master" persona, really was a Taoist master, and a highly skilled one at that. He could read feng shui and geomantic layouts, vanquish demons and ghosts, and even stocked "hair-growth tonic," "beauty pills," and "protective talismans" in his online shop. Every item sold out as soon as it went up.
Every now and then, an outsider who knew nothing about him would say, "Isn't that the celebrity who's been so popular lately?"
His fans: "What celebrity? Call him Immortal Master!"
The CEO had been very troubled lately. He could accept those fans liking his wife, but why did all these other people like his wife too?!
He watched a popular young star openly fawn over Lin Yesheng on a variety show, a superstar make a bold confession at a concert, an award-winning actor gaze at Lin Yesheng with affection on set, and even the protagonist's love interest follow Lin Yesheng around like a little shadow. He was so angry he nearly ground his teeth to dust.
Finally, he publicly posted a photo of their marriage certificate online and tagged Lin Yesheng, adding just two words: "Mine."
Lin Yesheng: ?
The CEO: "Sorry, honey. My finger slipped a little."
A cold, aloof, otherworldly cultivator who seems immune to desire, as the bottom x a domineering CEO who is cool and ruthless to everyone else but a lovesick, devoted wife-slave at home, as the top
