I Thought You Were My Lackey, but You Want to Be My Dao Companion

[Two Male Leads, Cultivation, Some Ensemble Cast, Multiple Couples, Happy Ending]

Jiang Suye awakened the Taotie Totem, which lets him grow stronger just by eating. The problem is, no matter how much he eats, he can never get full, and his tribe simply can't afford to feed him.

Jiang Suye has no choice but to load up decades' worth of the tribe's rations and go looking for food elsewhere. Little does he know that as soon as he leaves the tribe, he'll fall in love at first sight with Shi Hui, who drops from the sky.

Shi Hui is handsome, comes from a good family, is talented, and has a great personality. He's perfect in every way, except for one little quirk: he wants to take on a junior brother who calls him "big bro" every day.

If you want to be his friend, you have to be his junior brother first.

So Jiang Suye approaches him for a chat and ends up becoming Shi Hui's junior brother. Shi Hui takes him around, freeloading on food and drink, and the more Jiang Suye eats, the stronger he gets.

Jiang Suye returns the favor by helping Shi Hui seize the opportunities that were supposed to go to a certain male protagonist from a storybook. The more they snatch, the stronger they become.

In this way, they both change their fates as cannon fodder in the storybook, and even the fate of their continent as cannon fodder. They don't become stepping stones for the great male protagonist's ascension.

Jiang Suye goes from an obedient, capable junior brother to a friend who faces life and death alongside Shi Hui, and then to someone who shares his bed...

Shi Hui realizes it a little late: I thought you were my junior brother, but you want to be my cultivation partner?

The world is destroyed and reborn; we are parted and reunited. From now on, our path to immortality will be smooth, and we will never part again.

A thousand regrets from a past life, all made whole in this one.
