Chapter Five Hundred Ninety-Three: The Child of the Primordial Deities
The Falling Red Realm is indeed much larger than the Abyss Realm.
This is also the first time Young Master Sang has comprehended the existence of realms. In fact, even any random continent within the Falling Red Realm is about the same size as the Abyss Realm.
And there are thousands, if not countless, such continents in the Falling Red Realm.
According to Xu Hongyi, this realm is even the smallest among all the realms of the Primordial Deities.
“The biggest should be my brother’s own realm,” Xu Hongyi pondered and said, “After all, you’re the first deity/demon born. Your realm has existed the longest.”
Young Master Sang nodded thoughtfully.
…How come I didn’t know I was so awesome?
Aside from its size, the Falling Red Realm isn’t much different from the Abyss Realm. If one must say, the customs here seem rather peculiar.
Here, regardless of gender, people can freely marry and fall in love without any concepts of fidelity or devotion.
Every man can have many wives, and every woman can have many husbands; all marital relationships can coexist simultaneously without any moral disputes.
Seeing this for the first time, Young Master Sang was greatly shocked by such customs. However, according to Xu Hongyi’s explanation, it seemed understandable.
“If you can’t be with the person you like, isn’t that too sad? Regardless of whether it’s because you liked someone else first or for whatever reason.”
With a pitying expression, she said, “It’s such a shame to not be with your loved one just because of those moral marriage rules and regulations. Isn’t it better for everyone to be freely with the person they love?”
…True.
With a romance-obsessed realm lord like this, it’s only normal for the moral concepts of this realm to be a bit askew.
Thinking this way, Young Master Sang felt relieved.
Additionally, the scenery in the Falling Red Realm is uniquely interesting.
For the next few days, Young Master Sang and Xu Hongyi wandered through the realm like a newlywed couple, exploring mountains and rivers.
Xu Hongyi seemed to really enjoy this honeymoon-like experience, wearing a brilliant smile every day, cheerfully holding Young Master Sang’s hand wherever they went.
“Brother, look! What a big sea beast! It’s rolling around!”
“Brother! This flower smells so good! Can you put it on my head, please?”
“Brother… with such a beautiful starry sky, don’t you want to kiss me?”
Young Master Sang never refused any of Xu Hongyi’s requests.
He really seemed like a brother trying hard to satisfy his capricious little sister.
They kissed in a valley of fallen red maple leaves, embraced in the stream under the bright stars, and were affectionate in the empty snowy ground.
Their traces were left in many places, enjoying bliss unconcerned.

“So soft~ so comfortable.”
In a rarely visited spirit beast valley.
This place is home to many spirit beasts unique to the Falling Red Realm, most of which are quite powerful, making it nearly impossible for humans to enter.
Of course, for Young Master Sang and Xu Hongyi, it was just a big cat café.
By the lake, a handsome giant horse with a luscious mane lay stretched out. Xu Hongyi lay on its belly, contentedly petting its fur while watching countless demonic beasts running and playing around in the valley.
All the spirit beasts ignored Xu Hongyi and Young Master Sang, showing no hostility and allowing them to lean against them and stroke their bodies.
“Brother, you really like fluffy little animals, right? Isn’t this place great?”
“Indeed.” Young Master Sang gently patted the giant horse behind him, which exhaled white mist from its nostrils, showing a contented expression at their touch.
“Being peaceful and multiplying in this valley, just like them, must be quite happy.”
At that moment, a few little foals, having finished drinking water at the lake, trotted over to Young Master Sang and Xu Hongyi, kneeling beside the giant horse’s soft belly.
The giant horse leaned down and licked its offspring, creating an incredibly warm scene that brought smiles to Xu Hongyi and Young Master Sang.
“How wonderful,” Young Master Sang murmured, “Little Ying You and Little Lonely are also—”
Halfway through his sentence, he stopped.
He turned to look at Xu Hongyi.
Her beautiful eyes drooped slightly, and her expression seemed to carry a hint of melancholy.
“I’m sorry…”
She said softly, “Brother, are you thinking of your own children?”
Xu Hongyi has always been sensitive about the topics concerning Young Master Sang in the Abyss Realm.
She knew that even if Young Master Sang regained the memories of the First Deity/Demon, everything that happened in the Abyss Realm wouldn’t vanish. Young Master Sang’s feelings for his wives wouldn’t disappear either.
Despite selfishly taking Young Master Sang back, she also knew that what she did was wrong.
She had just been avoiding the matter, even hesitating to bring it up in front of Young Master Sang.
Young Master Sang blinked and pretended to be nonchalant: “Actually, it’s fine.”
“After all, I am a Primordial Deity, and there’s too big a disparity in identity.”
“For me, moments passing in the blink of an eye may be equivalent to their millennia. By the time I return, maybe they’ve already reincarnated.”
Xu Hongyi looked at Young Master Sang with a complicated expression. After a moment, she gently hugged his head and pulled him into her embrace.
“It’s okay… I’ll provide the family bond that brother lacks.”
“As long as you and I work hard, we can have a child that belongs to us.”
Young Master Sang chuckled: “Can Primordial Deities even have children?”
“Well… although there doesn’t seem to be a precedent,” Xu Hongyi tilted her little head and thought, “but we should at least give it a try.”
“And even if we really can’t have children, we can think of other ways.”
“After all, as long as it’s what brother wants,” she nudged him with her little head and sweetly said, “I can satisfy brother with anything.”
Young Master Sang smiled calmly, affectionately ruffling her hair.
Suddenly, there came a chorus of little foal neighs from the distance.
As they looked up, they saw a few little foals gathered around a trembling little creature by the lakeside.
The little creature was soaking wet, as if it had just crawled out of the lake. It had a youthful visage, but its claws were incredibly sharp, and its faintly crimson eyes warily scanned its surroundings.
“Eh?”
Xu Hongyi exclaimed softly: “A wild Little Blood Demon? So rare!”
The two of them approached the Little Blood Demon, which instinctively shrank back, baring its teeth in a show of defiance.
“It’s okay, it’s okay~”
Xu Hongyi gently patted its little head, causing the Little Blood Demon to settle down obediently, staring wide-eyed in confusion at the two.
“What a poor child.”
Xu Hongyi murmured: “There aren’t many blood demons in the Falling Red Realm. A wild blood demon nurtured by the cosmos is even rarer.”
“Born into this lake, without parents, must be so unfortunate.”
The Little Blood Demon seemed to sense Xu Hongyi’s sympathetic feelings, and it widened its adorable eyes,主动用小脑袋蹭了蹭许红衣的手.
“Ah! So cute!” Xu Hongyi instantly felt joy.
“Brother! Let’s take it home and raise it!”
She excitedly turned around: “Before we have children of our own, we can treat it as our child for the time being, what do you think?”
“Sure.”
Young Master Sang smiled quietly, though his eyes were exceptionally calm.
