A seemingly obedient but secretly mad Ming Snake boy × a cold, chaste Immortal Venerable who's the strongest of all
On the very first day Lin Yao left his village to travel, he was kidnapped.
Forced to swallow the poison that supposedly kills the moment it touches your blood, he sighed and left his last words: "I've done plenty of evil in my life. Meeting you lot makes us even."
But he didn't die. Nothing happened.
Wait, wasn't that poison supposed to kill on contact with blood?!

With his innocent, pretty face, Lin Yao became a disciple of Immortal Venerable Yu Heng at Lingxiao Peak.
During the new disciples' trial, Lin Yao discovered that he was impervious to blades, spears, water, and fire. He stopped holding back and became astonishingly bold, taking first place in the trial.
When he turned around, his master had been turned into a pincushion.
Lin Yao: So injuries don't disappear; they just get transferred...
Lin Yao discovered that it wasn't just injuries. Their cultivation could be transferred between them too...
His eyes lit up. To get revenge, he simply seduced Yu Heng, and the two ended up in bed together.
Absorb whatever you can.
His master... agreed.

After getting Yu Heng on his side, Lin Yao learned that the Six Great Immortal Sects had been the ones to attack him. He decided to slaughter his way through them all to get revenge.
When Lin Yao transformed into a Ming Snake and smashed into the first immortal sect, the other five surrounded him. Yu Heng stepped forward to speak for him, putting on a most reasonable front:
"Just normal relationship-building." It was the sect's door that was too flimsy. You couldn't blame Lin Yao for accidentally breaking it.
"It's not a mutation." His true form was a snake.
"He didn't kill anyone." The dead ones were beasts, not people.
"He's always been very well-behaved." He looks cute when he cries. Makes me want to take him to bed.
The sects watched their usually honest, expressionless ancestor lie through his teeth with his eyes wide open, and seethed with anger. "His eyes are glowing red!"
The protagonist grows stronger as the story goes on, and gets revenge. Things are frustrating early on, but it gets more and more satisfying later.
The love interest is a doting spouse with no conditions.
One-on-one romance. The original setting is extensive, so please don't scrutinize it too closely.
Theme: Rather than hoping your husband becomes a dragon, become one yourself.
