My CEO Harem Cultivation System

What were the chances that the CEO would be trapped in the room of a beautiful woman? Some might have considered this a dream come true, and yet for the man who could feel his intuition picking up something dangerous—this was not the place to be.

"My bathroom is right over there." Bai Minghua gestured to another door with a bright smile. "Please feel free to use it, dear fan. There's no need to be embarrassed, okay?" The woman was keeping up with the facade of being a wholesome and innocent woman, despite already using her strength to pull him into her room.

He smiled and nodded. "Ah, thank you, Miss Bai Minghua."

Li Yang wished that Taiga was here.

Especially when the notification appeared in his vision.

[ Assessment of Individual Complete ]

[ Evaluation ]

Individual is an insignificant being in the earthly plane, originally living in the underwater portion of the plane. Most commonly known by humans as 'mermaids' and are classified under the Undine sub-race. Even by Individual's own people, the Individual is notable. The Individual is powerful enough to stay away from water, maintain their natural strength and keep the ocean's gifts to their people.

Considered suitable as part of the 'Harem' for the Host.

[ One Trait Discovered! ]

[ Congratulations! You Have Completed the Side Quest: Find Out Her True Nature ]

Due to Accomplishment of System-Generated Side Quest. You Have Been Given Preview and Access To The Next Main Quest.

[ You Have Gained 5000 Charm Points ]

"Well? It's terrible to hold it in, dear fan." She had both of her hands covering her face shyly, the idol swaying in place. "Are you just going to keep staring at me? I'm getting embarrassed here."

"My apologies, it's hard not to stare when you're in front of your idol."

"You're quite a smooth talker, aren't you?" She giggled.

[ You Have Lost 100 Charm Points ]

"Not as much as you." he smiled.

"Eh?! That's not true. Just go in the bathroom now will you? Let's talk after that."

[ You Have Gained 50 Charm Points ]

Li Yang would take the opportunity to step inside of the bathroom, and he quickly locked the door behind him. If he could still feel the strength of the woman despite ascending to Qi Condensation Stage Three… then it meant that her strength could be on par with some cultivators.

And yet what had struck more was the System announcing that she was a suitable part of his harem and was given a chance to look at the Main Quest once more?

He quickly opened up to check.

[ Main Quest: Conquering the 'White Lotus' Bai Minghua ]

[ Difficulty Level: Easy (Bai Minghua) Difficult (True Nature) ]

[ Status: Can Now Be Unlocked ]

[ Summary: Harem Cultivation is the method of gaining power through conquering beauties and adding them to your 'harem'. Your current target is 'Bai Minghua' , the top-idol with the extremely rotten nature inside. She is currently kind to you, but what will happen if you reveal her true self? ]

[ Time Remaining: 30 Days ]

[ Success: 50,000 Charm Points ]

[ Failure: Collapse of Your Company ]

[ Would You Like To End The 'Interlude' And Start The Main Quest? ]

[ Main Quest Will Automatically Start At End Of 'Interlude ]

"Not yet."

He still needed to gather strength to be on par with much stronger individuals and groups in order to protect himself, and even then—he had to gather more details about who he was up against. The CEO checked the other available information gathered for him.

[ Human Name: Bai Minghua ]

[ Other Name: Narissa ]

[ Human Age: 23 years old ]

[ Actual Age: 230 years old ]

[ Cultivation: None ]

[ Constitution: Undine (100%) ]

[ Bloodline: Mermaid Bloodline (awakened) - Concentration (100%) ]

[ Roots: Water (100%) ]

The purity of her constitution, bloodline and roots were immense. It was on another entirely new level when he compared it to Ying Yue He. Li Yang could now understand why the System, Heavens, or whoever was in charge of choosing Harem Members had chosen her? But then again, wasn't every Undine who came from the oceans would have the same information?

He could faintly recall that Taiga had boasted of having pure fire roots—which meant she could have been the perfect counter to this individual. And it was for this reason that he wished she was here, then at least he could be at ease. The man could use his Mental Skill to protect himself from the Mermaid's influence, but he still wasn't sure if he was good in terms of actual combat.

Another question came in his mind, if Taiga didn't fulfill the criteria of becoming part of the harem according to the System's Evaluation… it meant that there were other characteristics in play than having a capacity to become a strong cultivator.

The CEO checked the skills section.

[ Skills ]

Undine Nature (uncommon)

The number of Undines are quite diminished when compared to the Humans inhabiting the earthly plane. However, their capacity to breathe and dwell underwater is one of their inborn traits. Supernatural strength is often available for those who dwell in the darkest trenches of the oceans with tremendous pressure.

Voice of the Siren (special)

Not everyone who inhabits the oceans can draw upon the voice that has brought destruction to countless ships, sailors and men lost in the waters. Her unique and mesmerizing voice can cause hallucinations, both visual and auditory. When one falls for this Siren's bewitching voice, a memory of the most desired thing will appear in one's mind.

Fish Out of Water (rare)

Most dwellers of the depths prefer to stay in the darkest and coldest waters, to even think of going to the surface when the moon and dark sky are not out can render and kill the weakest of their kind. Staying too long from a natural water source is extremely dangerous.

[ Fate ]

Current: Cherished and Beloved Idol

Through the use of her voice and exceptional beauty, she has gained the hearts of the land folks and is living her life in richness, fame and splendor.

Li Yang sighed, flushed the toilet, and washed his hands. Did he really want to involve himself with this kind of woman? The remaining days left from accomplishing 'Date the Secretary' Main Quest was still running and giving him time, but at the end of that period—he'd be facing this woman yet again.

There was no escaping this incident.

Would it be better that he just accepted the Main Quest and got it over as fast as he could? It was up to the CEO to keep her close and actually stay in touch with this 'young' idol in order to have a speedier process when he started the Quest. It took little time to form an idea on what to say and offer to Bai Minghua to keep in touch with her.

Li Yang would step out of the bathroom.

He would come across her in front of her dresser, she was currently combing her hair. The reflection in the mirror was of Bai Minghua smiling. "Ah, are you done already? Thank goodness. Since you managed to come here by yourself by accident—how about the two of us talk for a bit, dear fan? Don't tell anybody else, okay? I don't want to hurt their feelings by showing preferential treatment."

Author Note: Yes, you should have listened to Granny Bo Lanfen's words about mermaids :< Is it finally time to start the Main Quest? If you were in the CEO's shoes, what would be your course of action and game plan? What do you think the CEO will do? Thanks for reading!
