After Transmigrating into the Cannon-Fodder Ex Wife I Drove the Aloof Immortal Venerable Crazy

Su Tiantian transmigrates into the body of Su Yao, a cannon fodder character in the novel "The Cold Immortal Venerable's Little Darling Disciple." Su Yao was a demon clan spy who infiltrated the Yunmiao Peak by staging a rescue for the sect's leader, Immortal Venerable Song Qingzhi. She destroyed her own cultivation foundation in the process and forced a marriage through rumors. Su Tiantian's mission is to follow the original plot and die by Song Qingzhi's sword after her identity is exposed, with the reward being a return to her original world. She must make Song Qingzhi marry her within three days to complete the first phase of her task.

Song Qingzhi agrees to the marriage out of a sense of duty and guilt, not love. He is cold, aloof, and deeply suspicious of Su Tiantian's true nature. Su Tiantian attempts various seduction tactics, including feigning weakness and accidental physical contact, but Song Qingzhi consistently rebuffs her using spiritual energy to maintain distance. He remains emotionally detached, viewing her as a burden he must protect due to his gratitude for her saving his life. Meanwhile, Su Tiantian continues her espionage work for the Demon Lord Jin Chuan, who monitors her remotely and punishes her with painful backlash if she deviates from her mission.

As Su Tiantian navigates her new life, she encounters Bai Weiwei, the original female lead and Song Qingzhi's disciple. Bai Weiwei appears gentle and pure but is subtly hostile toward Su Tiantian, warning her to stay in her place. Su Tiantian also discovers that her "Chaotic Spiritual Root" prevents her from growing spiritual plants, forcing her to rely on Song Qingzhi's help for healing at a spiritual spring. These healing sessions become a critical turning point, as Song Qingzhi gradually allows more physical contact, such as holding her wrist or letting her grip his sleeve during nightmares caused by Jin Chuan's control.

Song Qingzhi's behavior begins to shift from pure duty to a mix of responsibility and growing curiosity. He notices inconsistencies in Su Tiantian's injuries and her genuine reactions, which differ from her calculated performances. Despite his suspicions, he finds himself drawn to her vulnerability and begins to show subtle signs of care, such as fixing her plants and allowing her to stay by his side. Su Tiantian, in turn, starts to develop genuine feelings for him, complicating her mission and loyalty to the Demon Lord.

The story progresses with Su Tiantian balancing her dual roles as a spy and a wife. She uses the healing sessions to gather intelligence on Yunmiao Peak's formations while trying to avoid Jin Chuan's wrath. Song Qingzhi's cold exterior slowly cracks as he becomes more attentive to her well-being, though he remains guarded about his true feelings. The tension between their growing closeness and the looming threat of exposure creates a complex dynamic, setting the stage for further conflict as Su Tiantian's identity as a demon spy remains a secret.
