I Became the Immortal Lord's Ex-Wife in a Cultivation Novel

(No childbirth plot, the top is just going crazy.)

After transmigrating into a cultivation novel as an immortal lord's short-lived wife, Chen Zhuo is told that once he completes the plot, he can go home.

In the original story, the immortal lord seems aloof and indifferent, but is actually a cold-blooded madman who kills a million people without a second thought.

The only person he cares about in the entire story is the beautiful immortal maiden. At the end, she changes him, and he returns to the righteous path, living happily ever after.

But none of that has anything to do with Chen Zhuo. Chen Zhuo is the wife who dies young, a forgettable full stop in the story, whose life is as brief as dew and a flash of lightning.

Perhaps the immortal lord doesn't even remember his name.

That isn't a problem. All Chen Zhuo thinks about is going home.

But no matter how long he waits, his fated death never comes.

Chen Zhuo thinks it over and decides to kill himself.

He fails to die and comes back to life.

Nie Huanzhen holds his hand, his expression as calm as ever, just like before. He only calls him, "Senior Brother."

He is now an immortal lord, but his expression and tone are just the same as always.

For some reason, though, Chen Zhuo gets a chill down his spine. He tries to pull his hand free of Nie Huanzhen's.

Nie Huanzhen watches him with open eyes. Chen Zhuo tugs again, and Nie Huanzhen slowly lets go.

Chen Zhuo breathes a sigh of relief. That's right, everything is just as it used to be.

He and Nie Huanzhen still have the same half-familiar, half-strange cultivation partnership they had before he died. They rarely speak, and see each other even less.

By his reckoning, it should soon be time for Nie Huanzhen to meet that immortal maiden.

Chen Zhuo thinks it over and over, trying to come up with a tactful way to ask Nie Huanzhen to dissolve their marriage oath.

It seems only natural. Nie Huanzhen is now an immortal lord, so of course this inexplicable marriage between them should be dissolved.

But perhaps it's just his imagination. These past few days, he keeps falling asleep, and when he wakes, he finds faint red marks on the backs of his knees, his thighs, and his lower back.

As if someone had held him between their lips and carefully licked and kissed him again and again.

It's... just his imagination, right? Chen Zhuo thinks uncertainly. Who in all the world could sneak into the immortal lord's bedchamber without a sound?

Until his waist aches all day, his lower belly grows rounder by the day, and even his chest becomes tender and full...

Only after his senior brother's inexplicable death does Nie Huanzhen realize that what seemed like a happy marriage was nothing but a lie.

Did I do something wrong? Is that why Senior Brother doesn't like me and wants to leave me?

I still don't know Senior Brother well enough.

He swallows Senior Brother's sword, letting it tear his internal organs to pieces.

He cuts open his chest and abdomen, takes out his heart and liver one by one, and searches them with blood all over his hands.

Senior Brother's name isn't written on his heart or liver. His name isn't there at all. Doesn't that mean I don't love Senior Brother enough?

Nie Huanzhen carves Senior Brother's name into his heart and puts it back in his chest. As he does so, he feels rather guilty.

What if Senior Brother discovers that he carved the name there himself, instead of it growing there naturally...

What should I do? What should I do?

Senior Brother likes children. If I could give Senior Brother a child, would he stop leaving me?

I could bear a child for Senior Brother, too. But Senior Brother refused me. Why doesn't he like my child?

Will he like his own child? He will, right? He definitely will, right?
