Chapter 191 How about we give it a try?
He paused for a moment before stammering in response.
"Nangong Li, what... what did you just say?"
At this moment, Nangong Li gradually came to his senses. He first turned Beichen Mu's body to face him, and then looked at Beichen Mu seriously and said honestly, "I said, why don't we give it a try? There are precedents for same-sex love in the cultivation world. If we want to have children in the future, we can directly use our essence and blood to conceive a spiritual fetus. There are many methods, and we don't have to stick to worldly ways."
Upon hearing this, Bei Chenmu was even more shocked.
He never imagined that Nangong Li would say such a thing, and he never dared to imagine becoming a Daoist partner with someone of the same sex, let alone nurturing a spiritual fetus with their essence and blood. Looking at Nangong Li's serious eyes, Bei Chenmu was at a loss for words.
"Brother Li, have you really considered these things?"
Bei Chenmu swallowed hard and asked him in a low voice.
Nangong Li did not reply to him, but instead demonstrated her affection for Beichenmu through her actions.
He knew that Bei Chenmu had never had any intimate interactions with Xiao Ruoyue.
They didn't even hold hands, simply because Xiao Ruoyue disliked Bei Chenmu's contact with her.
Bei Chenmu stared blankly as someone pressed their lips against his.
Just as he was about to speak, Nangong Li took the opportunity to probe into Beichen Mu's slightly parted teeth and gently suck on his tongue. Her actions were forceful yet gentle. Beichen Mu's eyes widened instantly, his mind went blank, as if he was completely shocked by Nangong Li's actions and could not move.
Nangong Li's kiss was not rough, but rather carried a kind of careful cherishing, as if he were savoring a rare treasure. He felt Beichen Mu's body gradually relax, and an indescribable sense of satisfaction welled up in his heart.
After a long while, Nangong Li slowly released Beichenmu.
Both of them were breathing somewhat erratically.
Bei Chenmu continued to stare blankly at Nangong Li.
There was a complex light in his eyes.
She seemed to still be reeling from the kiss.
“Brother Li…” he called softly.
There was an imperceptible tremor in his voice.
Nangong Li gently stroked Beichenmu's cheek.
His eyes were full of seriousness: "Wood, I know this is sudden for you, but I really don't want to hide my feelings anymore. I like you, not just because of our childhood betrothal, but because you are you, and I don't want to see Xiao Ruoyue trample on you like that. Every time I see her humiliating you like that, my heart aches as if it's being cut by a knife..."
Nangong Li looked directly at the person in front of him. He reached out and gently stroked Beichen Mu's cheek. The touch was like a spring breeze brushing across the water, creating ripples. His fingertips trembled slightly, revealing Nangong Li's excitement and nervousness.
These hands had protected him countless times in battle, and now they were gently stroking his cheek. This gesture stirred Bei Chenmu's heart and stirred up a strange emotion within him. He had never imagined that he would be confessed to so directly by a man under such circumstances, especially since this man was Nangong Li, whom he had always regarded as a brother.
He looked into Nangong Li's earnest eyes, and his mind involuntarily drifted to the memory of how Nangong Li had been by his side all these years. No matter when or where, Nangong Li would always silently follow behind him. Even after he fell in love with Xiao Ruoyue, Nangong Li still insisted on staying by his side. This insistence lasted for two or three decades without ever having any complaints.
He recalled those years when Nangong Li always silently followed behind him. No matter what difficulties he encountered, Nangong Li would appear to protect him immediately. At that time, he thought it was just brotherly affection, but now it seems that the affection had long since crossed the line.
Another time, he was disheartened by a single sentence from Xiao Ruoyue. He sat alone on the summit of the back mountain, staring blankly at the vast sea of clouds. When Nangong Li found him, he was immersed in self-doubt and unable to extricate himself.
Nangong Li didn't say many comforting words, but simply sat quietly beside him.
I stayed with him to watch the clouds rise and fall until the sun set.
Nangong Li turned to look at Beichen Mu to the side and said softly, "Mu Tou, no matter what happens, I will be by your side." At that moment, Beichen Mu felt an unprecedented warmth from his good brother.
On another occasion, Bei Chenmu encountered a bottleneck in his cultivation and was very frustrated. When Nangong Li learned of this, she made a special trip and returned to the sect a few months later to find Bei Chenmu. She then used a rare spiritual herb that she had found to help him break through the bottleneck.
At that time, Bei Chenmu asked Nangong Li why she went to so much trouble to help him, and Nangong Li just looked at him, smiled, and said, "Because you are my brother."
These memories flooded Beichenmu's mind like a tide.
This made him restless. He realized that his feelings for Nangong Li were becoming more and more complicated. It was no longer a simple brotherly affection, but was mixed with a deep dependence, trust, and even a trace of indescribable emotion.
At this moment, seeing that he was ignoring him, Nangong Li vaguely guessed what Beichen Mu was thinking. He couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness. In the end, he still couldn't compare to Xiao Ruoyue. A trace of disappointment flashed in Nangong Li's eyes. He tried his best to calm himself down, but his heart just wouldn't calm down.
Nangong Li gave a bitter smile, stood up, and was about to leave.
He felt that he might have been too naive, thinking that his years of companionship and dedication would move Bei Chenmu's heart, but he never expected that he would ultimately be unable to replace Xiao Ruoyue in Bei Chenmu's heart.
Bei Chenmu noticed that he was about to leave, and a sense of panic welled up inside him.
He suddenly realized that he didn't want to lose Nangong Li.
Whether as brothers or in any other capacity.
Suddenly, a voice echoed in his mind: Keep him here, don't let him go!
Bei Chenmu hurriedly stood up, and with a wave of his hand, layers of barriers formed inside the private room to prevent any unexpected attacks. He quickly went to Nangong Li, stood on tiptoe, and reached out to wrap his arms around Nangong Li's neck, making him look at him at eye level. Then, he pressed his red lips to Nangong Li's lips.
This kiss sent a jolt through them like an electric current. Bei Chenmu felt his heart pounding. He had never been so affectionate with anyone before, and he never expected that his first kiss would be with A Li.
Nangong Li was stunned by the sudden kiss. His eyes widened, filled with shock and disbelief, but soon, the shock was replaced by joy. He hugged Beichen Mu tightly and deepened the kiss.
Their breaths mingled, as if the whole world had shrunk down to just the two of them.
After a long while, Bei Chenmu reluctantly parted from Nangong Li's lips.
Their eyes met, each filled with affection for the other.
Bei Chenmu looked at him shyly and whispered, "I don't want you to leave, and I don't want to lose you."
