So I sort of(or maybe not) have an idea of what it means but I can't seem to come up with a term without butchering its actual meaning. So what is the english equivalent of 结为道侣 and 天道见证 Is it something like cultivating the way of the Tao? and the second one being to be recognized by the heavens? The context is below: “弟子想与师尊结为道侣。”不知道为什么觉得自己在这时候就是该半跪下来 and “结为道侣是要由天道见证方才可成。” Let me know if I'm wrong or if you have a corrector answer!! thanks!
1) Dao Companion 2) To become Dao companions, they must be judged by the heavens in determining whether they could be together. I think that’s it haha
There are two types of Dao Companion in xianxia novels. One is equivalent to friend/classmate and one is equivalent to wife/husband. I think this belongs to type 2.
