The Junior Brother I Raised Says He Wants to Marry Me

[Two male leads + mutual healing + devoted to each other + pure love + equally powerful + happy ending] A cool, beautiful, gifted senior disciple versus a seemingly obedient, free-spirited junior prince Qi Hexian rescued a child from a mountain of corpses and blood, then kept him by his side for decades. When the child was bullied, he stood up for him; when the child fell ill, he cared for him. He thought of himself only as a senior brother protecting the boy for life. He didn’t know that while he protected the boy’s life, the boy hid his feelings for him. The boy secretly wore his robes, peeked at him bathing through the window, crept into his room at night, and slipped under his covers to cling to him as they slept. A little selfishness, a bit of foolish courage, hidden for years, never spoken aloud. When his secret was finally discovered, whether he was made to kneel or scolded, Qi Nian’an kept his head bowed, yet knew perfectly well what he wanted. It had never been just his senior brother. Just then, disciples from various sects began disappearing one after another. The two were ordered by an elder of the Suiyuan Sect to descend the mountain and investigate. The martial world was swept by a sudden wave of bloodshed. A wicked sect used puppetry to disguise its actions while secretly stealing cultivators’ golden cores to make pills. A rumor also spread that gathering five magical artifacts would open the supreme treasure vault of the Baixiao Hall. Greed ran rampant, the killing never stopped, and the martial world fell into calamity. With danger lurking at every turn, the two traveled side by side. The feelings they had long suppressed and the obsession they had kept hidden would soon have nowhere left to hide amid the blood and storm. “Senior Brother, will you always protect me?” “Of course. I’ll keep you safe.” “But I don’t want to be safe. I only want you.”
