it's ok to have other interpretations of course, but I think that hua cheng calling xie lian his beloved as a ghost fire and as wu ming makes it clear that he's loved xie lian *romantically* for 800 years. his devotion and romantic feelings aren't something that can be separated

friendly reminder that xie lian was known as the flower-crowned martial god; someone with incredible strength, but also beauty and gentleness
"A sword in one hand, a flower in the other: “the power to end the world, but with a heart as gentle as a flower”"

I think it says a lot about xie lian that what finally got him to fully realize his feelings for hua cheng was being manhandled, pinned against an altar, and fiercely kissed and touched all over
