My Husband Is the Leader of the Righteous Path

Chen Qingdai transmigrates into the body of a reviled member of the demonic sect.

And not just any member: she's a low-ranking grunt, a wage slave at the bottom of the ladder.

"Your mission is to infiltrate the righteous sect, get close to Xie Wushuang, and destroy his Dao body by any means necessary."

Everyone knows that Xie Wushuang cultivates the Heartless Dao and has a cold, unyielding heart. Before Chen Qingdai, the ninety-nine expendable pawns sent to him had all rushed to their deaths like moths to a flame, only to be dispatched with a single sword stroke.

Chen Qingdai: Don't wage slaves deserve to live?

She runs away and goes into hiding in a small village.

While working the fields, she saves an amnesiac man. He's handsome and refined, and the two of them join forces to get by. Before long, they get married.

Chen Qingdai likes chatting with her new husband about the latest gossip from the cultivation world.

Chen Qingdai: "I heard that Xie Wushuang, the so-called leader of the righteous path, cultivates the Heartless Dao. Don't you think the Heartless Dao is pretty twisted?"

Her husband: "Mm."

Chen Qingdai: "I heard that before he attained the Dao, he killed his father, his master, his older brother, and his friends. Do you think he was repressed for so long that it drove him crazy?"

Her husband: "Yes."

Chen Qingdai: "Ever since ancient times, people have killed their wives to prove their Dao. Whoever married him would be doomed."

"If I were his wife, I'd strike first, give him a dose of medicine, and send him off to the heavens to cultivate his stupid Heartless Dao."

Her husband smiles warmly. "You're quite clever."

Their happy life doesn't last long. People from the demonic sect track them down and tear them apart.

To keep her husband alive, Chen Qingdai leaves him a divorce letter and goes on the run, returning to her old line of work.

Later, Chen Qingdai successfully infiltrates the righteous sect as a spy.

One day, the entire sect is celebrating.

Chen Qingdai follows the other disciples to watch the commotion and get the latest gossip.

A disciple beside her excitedly tells her, "That's Lord Lingxiao Sword, Xie Wushuang!"

On a mountaintop wreathed in clouds, a man stands with a sword on his back, dressed in white, his black hair flowing. He looks down with an indifferent gaze, a vivid red cinnabar mark between his brows.

Chen Qingdai rises on her toes for a closer look

Isn't that the mortal husband she ditched with a divorce letter?!

[Note]

There will be no killing a wife to prove one's Dao, or the classic "Darling, drink your medicine" plotlines.

A levelheaded female lead × a sweet on the outside, dark on the inside male lead who tries to imitate human behavior

Not a strong female lead. The heroine has a mild tendency to attract admirers, and various shady creatures will lurk in the corners watching her. After she runs away, the story will include forced-romance elements.

Theme: Treat each other with honesty
