Who Doesn't Have a Sword Immortal Wife?

Shen Yun Hao, a 21st-century university student, wakes up after a night of drinking with friends to find himself in an ancient hall, dressed as a groom. He initially thinks he is in an immersive escape room, but quickly realizes he has been transported into a cultivation world. He is forced into a wedding chamber with a woman in red, Ning Yuyao, an immortal fairy from the Broad Cold Palace. When he lifts her veil, he is stunned by her beauty. Suddenly, a flood of fragmented memories erupts in his mind, causing him to call her "Yao'er" before collapsing from the pain.

The story reveals that Shen Yun Hao was a mortal with useless meridians who had been engaged to Ning Yuyao since childhood. However, he had attempted to break off the marriage upon her return, infuriating her senior martial sister Ying Tangtang and the sect. The Shen family, eager for a connection to the immortal sect, forced the wedding to proceed. Ning Yuyao, who had secretly cherished her memories of "Brother Yun Hao" for years, was initially disappointed but finds his cry of "Yao'er" deeply moving. She sits by his bedside as he remains unconscious for three full days, comatose from the mental shock.

During his coma, a subplot emerges involving a jealous Young Palace Master who had tried to drug Shen Yun Hao with a powerful intoxicant called Soul-Separating Drunkenness to prevent the marriage from being consummated. The drug is suspected to be the cause of Shen Yun Hao's prolonged sleep. Meanwhile, Ying Tangtang urges Ning Yuyao to return to the sect for the triennial Spiritual Spring Soul Tempering, a critical cultivation opportunity. Ning Yuyao hesitates, wanting to stay with Shen Yun Hao, but is persuaded that he will wake soon and that she must not miss the event. The sect background is explained: the broad cold palace has no precedent for hosting men, and the palace master, Nie Qingshuang, initially opposed the marriage, only reluctantly agreeing after mediation.

On the third day, a cat that Shen Yun Hao used to feed appears regularly at the windowsill, and Ning Yuyao cares for it, integrating into his life. Ying Tangtang, suspecting the cat might be more than it seems, teases her junior sister. The story concludes with Ying Tangtang leaving the couple alone for their last night, carrying the cat away. Ning Yuyao resolves to watch over Shen Yun Hao one more night before returning to the sect with Ying Tangtang the next day. The protagonist remains in a mysterious coma, his mind seemingly isolated by a strange power, while the main conflict revolves around the clash between mortal and immortal worlds, the arranged marriage, and the looming pressure of sect rules and a jealous rival.

The core story follows Shen Yun Hao's transmigration into a cultivation world, his forced marriage to an immortal fairy, his mental crisis triggered by past life memories, and the immediate aftermath of his three-day coma. The narrative establishes his initial reluctance, the sect's disdain, and Ning Yuyao's steadfast devotion. The ultimate goal and larger story arc are not yet resolved, but the introduction sets up Shen Yun Hao's potential hidden origins, the conflict with the young palace master, and the necessity for him to navigate the power dynamics of the cultivation world. The story ends with Shen Yun Hao still unconscious, Ning Yuyao torn between duty and love, and the pending return to the Broad Cold Palace.
