Chapter 663, The Happy Life of the Stallion
I thought that after Huo Longyuan went back, he would quickly send news.
However, after waiting…
Seven years passed.
…
A lot happened in those seven years.
The biggest event was that the Empress of the Holy Kingdom announced her abdication and handed the throne to her younger brother, Huo Ming, who had just celebrated his twenty-second birthday.
At that time, under Huo Longyuan’s hard work, the Holy Kingdom was starting to gradually regain the splendor of its peak years. Ever since Huo Ming ascended the throne and issued an edict to lift the gate restrictions of Tianlang City, countless sect cultivators and common folk were desperately trying to squeeze in. Tianlang City finally reveal itself fully to the world.
With various major sects moving into Tianlang City, even the headquarters of the Taixu League relocated from the Demon Cult to a separate Taixu League office building in Tianlang City, making it a political center that looked onto the economic hub of Linzhou from afar.
The National Master’s Mansion was renamed Taixu Academy and opened to scholars from across the nation.
The academy was taken over by Li Shanyan, who had retired from the Taixu League and became the principal. In just a few years, it transformed into the most prestigious academy in the world.
Countless nobles and powerful families tried their best to send their offspring to the academy, but Li Shanyan never considered backgrounds or qualifications when selecting students.
He had only one requirement.
Be eager to learn.
As long as they were eager to learn, it didn’t matter whether they were poor or dull.
He would gladly teach them.
Compared to the myriad tasks Huo Ming had to handle after ascending the throne,
Huo Ningxue seemed to be enjoying herself immensely.
On the day of the abdication, she dashed to the Sang residence requesting a room, and then spent three blissful days and nights with Young Master Sang making babies.
In the end, she became the third person in the Sang family to be pregnant, proving that hard work pays off.
Originally, this was a matter worth celebrating across the land.
However, there was one person who, upon hearing this news, immediately abandoned all her affairs in the Sword Flower Palace and rushed headlong into the Sang family.
Yes.
Gu Yingmian saw Huo Ningxue flaunting her pregnancy via video call and couldn’t hold back her anger any longer. She abandoned her Taoist heart and sword intent and hurried back to the Sang family, swearing not to return to the Sword Flower Palace until she was pregnant too.
So poor Chun Lan and Qiu Ju had to take over all the responsibilities of the Sword Flower Palace, waiting eagerly for their palace master to return.
But naturally, they wouldn’t see their master back anytime soon.
After all, there was still a long line of people waiting for the stallion.
Though being a stallion sounded gross, Young Master Sang was actually living quite the comfortable life.
Since the departure of the Primordial Deities, he had completely unloaded all matters related to the Demon Cult and Taixu League, focusing on spending time at home with his wife and children.
Occasionally, the family would go on trips or send the kids to Taixu Academy for a few days of tutoring while he relaxed at home.
Life was so comfortable that he nearly forgot about the matters concerning Ancestral Cang and Old Woman Xi.
However, there was still one thing that constantly weighed on his mind.
…That dead girl Nian Nian, who knows if she’s just being tsundere or genuinely has some obsession.
Over these seven years, Young Master Sang had countless opportunities to capture her, yet each time he failed due to various reasons or her stubborn escape.
Whenever he asked her why, she always mumbled something about “not romantic enough,” “needs to be more ceremonial,” and the like.
Ceremony, romance.
Fine.
Young Master Sang began to think of different ways to create romantic confessions in flowery settings, even teaming up with Bai Ming and others to prepare surprises.
But the results were often underwhelming.
Later, it was Yan Rouwan who woke him up. Nian Nian was omniscient, so all those little surprises he painstakingly prepared probably didn’t count as surprises for her.
And since Nian Nian was clearly not willing to progress any further, there must have been her own reasons for it.
Thus, Young Master Sang let go of the matter for now.
After all, even if they couldn’t reach the main story,
the perks he needed to claim couldn’t escape that little girl.
Sometimes, watching her with an unwilling face, having to blush and lower her head to eat candy, he found it quite enjoyable.

One night, after a loving session with Xu Hongyi, Young Master Sang was checking his communication device in bed when suddenly a message came in.
It was from Li Shanyan.
“The former emperor’s clone sends a message: Ancestral Cang and Old Woman Xi have not been found in their realms.”
Young Master Sang stared at the message blankly for a long time before suddenly recalling who those two were.
“Damn… It’s been so long to get a message back.”
“Can’t really say it’s been long,” Xu Hongyi said, resting her head on his chest, her fingertips drawing circles on his abdomen. “After all, for us Primordial Deities, seven years is like a blink of an eye.”
“Maybe Longyuan went back to flirt with his little lover for a while before checking,” he thought for a moment, and that seemed possible.
However, the continued disappearance of Ancestral Cang and Old Woman Xi wasn’t particularly good news.
“Should I go look for them too?” Xu Hongyi said softly. “Or should we ask other Deities for help?”
Young Master Sang thought about it and shook his head. “Forget it.”
“After all, I finally got rid of those deities. I don’t want to get entangled with them again.”
“You don’t need to go. My clone is still aimlessly cultivating outside. Since it’s being lazy anyway, I’ll use my clone to try my luck.”
“Oh,” Xu Hongyi replied, not pressing further.
In fact, at this point, finding Old Woman Xi and Ancestral Cang didn’t mean much to them anymore.
Even if Ancestral Cang regained his peak strength, Young Master Sang wasn’t worried about him threatening the Abyss Realm.
Not to mention he had helpers like Huo Longyuan and Xu Hongyi among the Primordial Deities.
Simply having Yan Rouwan, who was just one treasure away from complete awakening, could ensure Ancestral Cang wouldn’t even step into the Abyss Realm.
As for Old Woman Xi, no need to elaborate.
Xu Hongyi had mentioned that Old Woman Xi was among the Primordial Deities the least skilled at battle.
The rules she mastered concerning replication and reproduction weren’t very strong. Young Master Sang was confident he could take her down in no time.
“Please send a message to Huo Longyuan to deliver a gift for his child.”
After sending that message to Li Shanyan, Young Master Sang shut off the communication device and yawned.
“Ugh… So sleepy.”
“Better go to bed early. Didn’t Bai Ming say he had something to discuss with his family tomorrow?”
However, Xu Hongyi wasn’t asleep.
She continued to stare at Young Master Sang, her eyes filled with longing.
Young Master Sang: “…Wait, we just finished, right?”
“Don’t you want to know if Primordial Deities can give birth to offspring?”
“Even if I want to know, wouldn’t I need ample time for an experiment?”
“The schedule is already tight, and if you don’t work hard, when will we get results?”
Young Master Sang wanted to retort, but Xu Hongyi was already straddling him, sensually licking her lips.
“Don’t forget your current identity, okay?”
“You’re the designated stallion of the Sang family. Stallions must fulfill their duties.”
Frustrated, Young Master Sang could only sigh.
…Alright.
Having a harem is a moment of bliss. Being the stallion, a funeral pyre.
