A short story. I'll start once I'm sure my health has recovered and I won't keep going on hiatus without warning.
1
Fifty years later, the five great sects' four prodigies returned from a secret realm. Some led or carried children who were unmistakably related to them by blood. All of them, without exception, had unknown mothers.
2
Young Master Linghu Yuanzhen of the Wanfa Dao Sect was notorious for forcing his way into the top five of the prodigy rankings through blatant favoritism. No one knew that he, too, had been imprisoned in the secret realm for fifty years, and had forgotten the memories connected to it.

The cultivation world's grand tournament, held once every twenty years, coincided with an extraordinary celestial phenomenon, drawing unprecedented attention.
The Wanfa Dao Sect's young master stood out among the contestants, clearing one round after another with remarkable skill, seemingly poised to wash away the disgrace of his undeserved reputation.
Just as the competition reached its climax, an extraterrestrial demon launched a surprise attack.
With his life hanging in the balance, Linghu Yuanzhen's many magical treasures sprang into action, unleashing five-colored divine light bright enough to blind the onlookers.
A closer look revealed one, two, three, four... five peerless defensive treasures, each belonging to one of the five great sects and passed down only to its next sect leader!
The mountains and seas fell silent. The crowd surged, all turning to look at the five sects' young masters and their children seated at the judges' table.
Content warnings:
1. A practice piece and a writing comeback. This short story won't be behind a paywall. Updates every other day or every two days.
Not one-on-one. Pregnancy and childbirth. Lots of melodrama, with both sides hurting each other. Both lose their memories midway through the story (the bottom does it). The events in synopsis sections 1 and 3 happen around the middle. Read with caution.
2. Not pure love, not equal, no playing favorites, no preference for either the top or bottom. Pure melodrama. Personal kink, read with caution.
3. The bottom leans straight, because this author wants to see a straight man pinned down and crying out. Personal kink, think carefully before reading.
4. A kink-driven story. Think carefully before reading. We must accept everyone's dark kinks (rustling) (crawling around) (twisting my whiskers and laughing like a hearty old pauper).
5. Same world as The Sea King's Shipwreck, though there may be some differences in the storyline. Think carefully before getting into it.
6. Don't insult me. I've already warned you, so don't blame me if the story hits one of your triggers.
Theme: Be devoted and respectful, and raise healthy children.
