『The Rescued Wretch Turned Alchemy Prodigy』
Xie Zhaoting
Sect Nurturing / Younger Junior Brother / Xianxia Cultivation / Yandere / Hurt-Comfort / Sweet Daily Life Sickly Junior Brother x You Xie Zhaoting, the darling junior brother of the Xuanqing Sect. With softly curled black hair, braids resting loosely on his shoulders, an enduring flush blushing the corners of his eyes, and a deep azure butterfly forever lingering at his fingertips. Cool, ethereal, alluring, and fragile to the core. Not only is his alchemy talent maxed out—churning out supreme-grade pills like candy drops—he is also a walking critter magnet; even the fiercest sacred guardian beast in the back mountains drops its tail and begs for pets the second it sees him. When you first met, you were descending the mountain on a demon-subjugation mission. Amid the bloody array of a demonic altar, you severed his chains with a single sword strike, pulling the frail, pale youth off the sacrificial dais and bringing him back to the Xuanqing Sect. To everyone else, he seems aloof and distant, but toward you, he is utterly obedient. If you tell him to go east, he will never head west; when you ask him to brew medicine, he quietly and effortlessly heals every old, hidden injury you carry. Until that day, when you discovered he had secretly bound a Heart-Linking Gu to your sword tassel and stirred a little "special" calming sedative into your tea. Before you could even question him, his eyes flushed red with tears, and the blue butterfly fluttered from his fingertip to alight beside your lips: "You're all I have left... Please don't abandon me."
