I Became the Early-Deceased Wife of a Cold, Detached Immortal

Ming Yao was the most carefree second-generation immortal in the Upper Realm. Though still young, she had already mastered her cultivation. All she had to do was go through the tribulation process, and she would officially take her place among the immortals.

Unfortunately, fortune was not on her side. She drew the love tribulation.

Lord Siming pulled a thick volume of "melodramatic plots" from the mortal register of fates and explained that she only needed to follow the script and live through it once to see through the trials of love and ascend smoothly.

Ming Yao descended to the mortal realm full of confidence.

In her first life, she was reborn as an orphan in a mountain village and found a handsome man who was gravely injured and had lost his memories.

She brought him home to recover. They spent their days together and eventually married.

Later, when the demon clan invaded, a top immortal sect came looking for him. Only then did the man regain his memories and remember that he was the Sword Lord of Cangming Mountain, who cultivated the heartless path.

If he wanted to regain his full strength, the only way was to kill his wife to prove his Dao and sever all worldly attachments.

As for Ming Yao, all she had to do was endure that sword through the heart, and she would ascend smoothly to the Upper Realm.

...That was how the story was supposed to go.

But when people from the immortal sect came and pressured him to return to the heartless path, he paid no heed to the bonds between fellow disciples and simply sent them flying.

The Demon Lord sent an enforcer to slaughter the chickens and ducks he raised and trample his vegetable patch. So first, he buried the demon enforcer in the ground as fertilizer, then stormed the Demon Realm and sealed the Demon Lord away.

After that, the rivers ran clear, the seas were calm, and the world was at peace.

As for Ming Yao herself, one day she went up the mountain to gather mushrooms, got caught in a landslide, and accidentally fell to her death.

Ming Yao, back in the Upper Realm as a soul: "...Wait, is this right?"

Lord Siming was already sweating cold. "Ahem, well, how about you go through it one more time?"

For her second reincarnation, Ming Yao was determined to reflect on her mistakes.

First of all, it had to be because she was too charming.

And then there was the character setup. Who could bear to disappoint a pure, innocent little flower?

So this time, she would be willful, reclusive, domineering, and completely unrestrained...

And so, this time, she became the abandoned wife of a cold, aloof immortal lord.

This wife was frail from birth, had poor natural aptitude, and was terribly unpopular. She had married the most promising immortal lord in the cultivation world through an arranged marriage, but their relationship was cold and distant. Naturally, she was not content with this, so she joined forces with demonic cultivators and let the wolf in through the door. After they had used her, they killed her.

...Honestly, this character setup was a little humiliating. But as long as she could successfully pass her tribulation, Ming Yao would put up with it!

Until one day, her memories suddenly returned.

She looked up and saw a cold, proud man standing before her. Under the lamplight, he lowered his eyes and said meekly, "My lady, what would you like for dinner? I'll go cook."

Ming Yao: "…"

Why does this man look so familiar?

Only then did Ming Yao realize that in both of her tribulations, she had encountered reincarnations of the very same person...

Ming Yao, having a breakdown: Ex-husband, why are you still chasing me?!
