HC that the PIDW created by Shang Wei there were so many plants to allow odd-couples to have babies. All the non human wives Bing-ge had, there had to be SOME way to reproduce, even if he didn't specifically add them to the web novel. They existed in his head.
Except, after he transmigrated, SQH was low key shocked to discover that every single fucking peak! Has a full childcare system, and a bunch of little kids running about!
Turns out that all those half imagined plants and trees he thought up actually manifested in this PIDW adjacent world. Here, if you happen to be using spiritual energy nearby, say, a Second Womb Tree, or even one of the Immaculate Earthbound climbing vines, chances are goo that you'd get a whole ass baby dropped on you a few minutes later!
And Cang Qiong had a very firm "yes to all the babies, bring them home and we'll grow our own disciples" policy.
So there were mini Wei Qingwei's and Liu Qingge's running around. A tiny little Mu Qingfang toddling after her Baba. And on Qing Jing Peak, where nearly everyone is a spiritual cultivator-there are several little boys and girls who are dead ringers for Shen Qingqiu
All of this to say that SQH definitely isn't getting paid enough, he for SURE isn't drinking enough, and what do you MEAN, my King, why do I have to go on this walk with you?
(A few minutes later)
SQH: OH. *Looks down at very new half demon baby in his arms* And smiles.
