   The first two were originally intended to be male-oriented novels, focusing on brotherhood, but the readers went crazy for the story, and the author went astray, eventually turning them into dual-male protagonist stories. A straight man writing BL (Boys' Love), yes. The last one is a male-oriented dual-male story, prioritizing plot and secondary romance, with a 4:1 ratio. Initially, they are mortal enemies, later becoming twin stars. This one wasn't a deviation; it was originally intended to be a dual-male story.

   🌟1. This is written by a male author. At the beginning, it's just a simple rivalry (or something like that), but it gets drawn out towards the end, so why not count it? 🌟2. The values ​​are very positive. Don't worry about whether the protagonist kills or not. Also, the romance develops relatively late; they only clearly get together in the last few chapters. It's a novel about the protagonist saving himself but unexpectedly redeeming the protagonist. 🌟3. This is a genuine male-oriented novel, really, really good, and the plot is great. Just look at the title, it's definitely worth reading. I just feel like the plot isn't finished at the end, it has a bit of a time loop feel, but it's really finished! 🌟4. This is the kind of unrequited love story, I don't know, but it's really good. Everyone's summaries are pretty good, you should check it out. I've almost finished it too (I suggest reading it during the day, I'm afraid of ghosts 👻). 🌟5. This is also a male-oriented novel, but they get together later, so it becomes a dual-male lead story. Don't worry about it being all lovey-dovey from the start; the focus is on their careers first, then the romance. 🌟6. Not explicitly stated, but there's a hint of the seme secretly liking the uke, but later they both realize it and start to accept it/think of the other. The beginning is all about survival, interspersed with a touch of unrequited love. Highly recommended if you like it. 🌟7. Male-oriented novel. The story starts with career development, then the seme meets the uke, redeems him from becoming a villain, and finally becomes the lord's knight (silver hair, height difference, cold but cute)! Transmigration, player, the Fourth Calamity (main plot/main storyline involves world development and fighting against Cthulhu). There's also a side couple late in the story. Also, the setting of the sun in the first few chapters is okay if you don't want to remember it; you'll get used to it later. Seriously, don't quit (because I quit because of that, then got writer's block, and then reread it. Result: It's so good!). 🌟8. A goofy, silly seme battles a powerful tyrant with an extremely strong protective instinct. Later on, it's almost like raising a child while simultaneously cultivating. Hehehe.

    I initially intended to write a no-romance story, but then I discovered the male supporting character (Zhou) was incredibly charming. My protagonist needed someone to love and pamper him unconditionally. Although this male supporting character eventually became the male lead (Zhou), he had many hidden agendas. He would team up with his younger self to form a love pact with the protagonist, saying he didn't love her, but seeing his younger self confess and be rejected by the protagonist would break his heart. Later, the protagonist accepted him, leading to their marriage in the future! Hahaha, the protagonist was incredulous and couldn't believe it. The protagonist wanted to escape, and Zhou, feeling jealous, even considered imprisoning her. The protagonist, desperate to change her fate, softened his heart. The second time, when the protagonist was going on an adventure to save her sister, Zhou couldn't resist anymore and successfully imprisoned her. However, the protagonist's friend interrupted, and the protagonist escaped. The third time, he completely turned to the dark side, secretly collaborating with the villain to set a trap for the protagonist, altering his memories to portray a sweet, married life—a world only for the two of them. But things didn't go as planned. The protagonist harbored many friends and family members in his heart, and as these friends and family members unexpectedly appeared in the protagonist's world, Zhou's plan collapsed. The protagonist, no longer under his control, sent him to prison before his "death." Later, after Zhou's release, the protagonist personally took him home to live a simple life, spending the rest of his life testing whether he had reformed in prison. If not, then he would be "imprisoned," letting him experience the taste of being manipulated—actually, it was just the flirtatious daily life of an old married couple. Our Zhou is just like that, mischievously playing tricks. He simply doesn't want the protagonist to leave him; he's still love-struck. Wherever the protagonist goes, he goes. If the protagonist tells him to go to prison, he obediently goes to labor camp—spoiled by the protagonist. (The above is purely fictional; please do not imitate.) If you like this kind of story, please come in; it's almost finished!

    This one! Although it's a new book and the rating is low, it's really good! A talkative innkeeper named Xiao Yao transmigrates into a novel, only to find himself in the cultivation world with no cheat codes, no powerful backers, and just a small, nearly bankrupt inn. He just wants to relax and enjoy life, but his best friends keep encountering strange things. With the Ascension Conference approaching, he suddenly finds himself with a system after living for over a decade? Wait, what? There's a male lead too? So it's not transmigration, it's transmigration into a book? What did you say? My father is best friends with the Emperor? My mother is the daughter of the Lingxiao Sect's leader, the strongest sect in the cultivation world? My sister is the chief disciple of the Qingyao Immortal Sect, full of beauties? My brother is the most well-informed pavilion master of the Moheng Pavilion in the entire cultivation world? Why am I the only ordinary one without even spiritual roots? And why have all his friends become powerful figures? A scion of a powerful family, the richest man in the country, the most powerful martial artist in his sect, a demon spy… wait, why is the most beautiful woman in the world performing at his inn? Why is the Crown Prince having tea at his inn? And why did the male lead I painstakingly raised… suddenly become a demon lord? A blend of everyday comedy, mystery solving, and cultivation.

    Reader note

    Here are two more recommendations. These two are still ongoing and are probably all-male. I recently read them, partly because the authors just released new books. 🌟1. Urban martial arts theme, comedy. The male protagonist (straight) has a system that turns men into gay men; the more gay men he has, the stronger he becomes. However, as the number of gay men increases, he becomes the object of many of their affections. This doesn't include younger-older, older-older, possessive, rivalry, love triangles, kissing, smelling the protagonist's clothes, or him being liked in a fantasy world. It also includes a lecherous homeroom teacher who forces love on you (don't be put off, it's a comedy, haha), a scheming homeroom teacher who rapes his nephew (not the protagonist), and a 1.69-Meter-tall boy who becomes a cute boy for some reason. So far, I've seen all-male stories, and I recommend reading them. 🌟2. This one also has a gay system, but it involves issuing tasks. The male protagonist is absolutely, utterly ... (I'd like to ask if anyone else has this kind of gay subsystem. I've only seen these two so far 😫)
