have you ever thought about moshang relationship but from mbj perspective? How he was almost killed by humans when he's about 4 y.o., has beef with HHP, almost killed by human again but then saved by a meek human? I think about it every day and it makes me sob every day.
imagine you've been prosecuted for your entire life. You have a valid reason to hate an entire species and you grow with it. You also live with your family who also hates human just because of old history. Presumably for hundreds of years.
so you train to be the best, the strongest, and you know that you have so much to learn but ultimately it's all needed to defeat the species who, years ago, almost k/lled you.
then you realise by the time you're about 17 years old you're still not strong enough to defeat them

it should've crushed one's spirit like mbj. Not to mention that he's all alone, injured, and on your way back, you find a group of weaklings who screams at you for being a demon and tell you to d*e
even the weak humans think they're so mighty to step on him.

then consider: you've killed all but one. But still a weakling will be able to kill him in his weak state. He fall to the ground, maybe thinking this is the end.
then you wake up. said meek human treats you for four days.

this An Ding Peak disciple ask for his protection in exchange of some information. Fair enough. There is nothing free in this world. MBJ can kill him anytime if he proves to be worthless, or betray him in the future. After all that's how human plays and he'll play the way they do
but then mbj didn't ask the human to care for him for four days. he can heal himself albeit slow. but then this human treats him well. fans him at midnight when it's on the peak of summer. puts compress so he'll stay cool. changes his bathwater and fix his torn clothes.
you're stuck with this human for four days and then you're contemplating that probably there are humans that are... tolerable.
then you followed this human and found out he's still as dedicated as ever. You might be suspicious over the years, waiting when he'll betray you

but what makes it even more beautiful for me is that MBJ is willing to learn about SQH? He's willing to acknowledge a help and be fair in it. He has pride but he doesn't let his pride best him and it's him when he's still a teenager and I think that's very sexy
being in MBJ's position at that time must have been hard. You have to overcome your hatred and pride. You hate human who's so hellbent to k/ll you, but then ironically your life is saved by a considerably weak human. If that's not character development then idk what else
I think MBJ is not a romantic person, he's never been familiar with kindness or gentle touches but then again if you see the whole meeting of him with SQH... it sounds like one hell of a journey.
and I don't think they're soulmates but I still found it endearing that they're both trying to make their relationship happens. Whatever the initial motives between them, I'm just so glad that they're friends because when you're lonely, having a good friendship is priceless.
(hey i'm a sucker for seeing them kissing but srsly I think it's amazing that they're not only lovers but also best friends for life. That's even rarer to have your lover as your best friend)
