My CEO Harem Cultivation System

Li Yang shifted his gaze to the man and eyed the blood dripping on the blade. He didn\'t say anything at first and beheld the wariness of the guy. Perhaps he just beheld the guy\'s idiocy. Li Yang was holding a weapon and even though he was supposedly a \'consort\'—his appearance should have said otherwise.

Or maybe he was thinking too far—

Ding!

Li Yang quickly enshrouded himself in Ao and gripped his sword tighter. That was until he saw the screen in front of him. It was once again flashing a strange quest for him to choose.

[ System-Generated Temporary Mission! ]

[ Type: Non-Harem, Power-related Task ]

[ Switching Allegiances ]

The world of Telriah is ruled by women and only small but organized groups like the Damask Insurgents are fighting to regain men\'s footing in this world.. The Goddess Aurora exiled her brother Aseroth from the world they created together and shunned the males in this world. 

Damask Insurgents have risen up and caught the Mashiro Temple unprepared. There are currently 18 Priestesses dead and 6 Damask Insurgents dead.

You Are Currently Associated With The [ Sect: Mashiro Temple ] Engaged In Defense Against The Intruders. The System Has Assessed Current Success Rate In Favor of Damask Insurgents at 75% Success. 

Would You Like To Switch Allegiances? 

[ Yes - I Wish To Betray The Mashiro Temple. Gain Targets To Kill For Bonus Power Points. Greatly Decrease Fame in Mashiro Temple ]

[ No -  I Would Like To Help Mashiro Temple. Gain Temporary Defense Bonus And Mission To Save Specific Individuals. Increases Fame in Mashiro Temple ]

You Have 30 Seconds To Decide!

30… 29… 28... 

Li Yang gritted his teeth.

It was in his best interest to stay allied with the Mashiro Temple—he was more tied with them and yet with how the System assessed things? 

They were quickly losing for some reason. Were they really just caught off guard? 

Why were they losing all of a sudden? 

What edge did Damask Insurgents have? 

What kind of situation was this?

He didn\'t have any time to mull—

His senses picked something up. The rooftop above them split open and Li Yang quickly dodged from the debris whereas the other man wasn\'t so lucky himself and was caught in the avalanche. 

The Damask Insurgent died then and there.

As Li Yang gazed up, he found a woman flying in the air. Even while he had only seen her from afar, he quickly recognized them as the woman in the casket of ice. The same person he avoided back in the Frostborne Mountain Peaks last night. 

All around her was a black veil that covered the entire surroundings.

But this woman—who Li Yang instantly recognized as the Goddess Aurora in a heartbeat—looked more annoyed at it than anything. 

More than that, there was something about her that made him think of Setsuko at that very hour. Perhaps it was just the same white hair that flowed down—but the resemblance was unmistakable. 

And yet he couldn\'t stare at her for too long.

It was too late already.

Aurora had already seen him the first time either. The white celestial glow in her eyes now tinted red as she pointed a finger at him. "YOU FREAKIN\' BASTARD!" 

There was no time to even notice that the Goddess\' choice of words suddenly resembled Bao\'s. Li Yang immediately flew backwards and avoided the ray of light that incinerated the very spot he had been. 

His gaze immediately shifted towards him and Setsuko\'s rooms, the two Priestesses were there—and yet he didn\'t even need to worry about them.

The Goddess Aurora\'s attention was solely reserved for him alone.

Just as another ray of light tore through the temple\'s ceiling came the System\'s own disruption. 

Ding! 

[ You Have Not Chosen An Answer For Switching Allegiance Temporary Mission ]

[ System Taking In Current New Parameters... ]

[ Survive The Telriah Goddess of the Light ]

Amidst the struggle and conflict between Mashiro Temple and Damask Insurgents has come an unexpected party tonight. The Goddess of Telriah has returned and is infuriated and aggravated by your presence.

The Host\'s Current Power Levels Are Insufficient For Head-On Combat. It Is In Host\'s Best Interest To Find A Way To Survive The Wrath Of A Goddess.

[ System Is Generating Possible Solutions… ]

Unconcerned of Li Yang\'s current situation against life and death, the System flashed a new screen at him that stated the obvious. He didn\'t need a reminder of how he needed to avoid the fight. 

Li Yang started mentally dismissing them away as he barely dodged the ray of light grazing at his shoulder. An incredible heat tore through his robes as he gnashed his teeth—but then suddenly felt it nullify as his Ao enshroudment did its job.

While he was surprised, Li Yang didn\'t wait for another taste of the Goddess\' ray to see what exactly saved him from the light and he turned away to run.

Li Yang didn\'t quite catch the look of shock that tore through the Goddess\' expression that made Bao regain control of the vessel for a couple of seconds. 

Now Bao the Panda was conflicted between leaving the vessel and enjoying the body of the Goddess, or separating to catch the man and also hit him for getting involved with a world calamity level.

Regardless of those thoughts unknown to him, Li Yang started running to avoid the Goddess\' anger. He didn\'t quite like his odds, and this made him wish that the World Warper was actually charged to the fullest. 

Even before the System could offer up possible solutions—Li Yang beat it to the one he already had in mind a long time ago. Li Yang needed to find as many Beast Cores as possible to fulfill the energy bar of the World Warper to escape.

If it was Li Yang\'s presence alone that tormented the Goddess… then the chances of the deity leaving and turning away from the Mashiro Temple itself once he was gone was possible, right? 

He absolutely had no idea at all.

And yet that was the best plan that he could come up with right now. Li Yang couldn\'t expect anyone in Mashiro Temple or even the Damask Insurgents to work with him together to face a Goddess. 

That was a death wish.
