Primordial Harem System

The sudden question from Yue Lan caught Shen Yuan off-guard. He felt the intense gazes of Shen Yuxin, Huo Rong, and Bing Rong all focused on him. He could feel a faint pressure building in the surrounding room, knowing that his answer may very well trigger all three of them.

Yue Lan's teasing voice echoed in his mind,

[Nyahaha, let's see how you handle this one, Shen Yuan.]

He ignored Yue Lan for now and took a deep breath, trying to come up with a passable answer to diffuse the situation. "Well… you see…" he began, scratching the back of his head as he lowered his head slightly and fell silent for a while, contemplating his choices.

He raised his head, his eyes radiating resolve as he spoke, "I won't close off my heart if I find a woman I like, so there might be only 3, 4, 7, or 10, or even more women around me."

He paused here, looking at their reaction. He heaved a sigh as he saw that Shen Yuxin, Huo Rong, and Bing Rong's expressions were the same and they weren't disappointed in him. But from their faces, they also weren't happy with him. So he continued,

"But I also won't go around collecting beauties from all over the place, I won't get together with any new one before getting permission from my harem members." He spoke seriously, without a shred of falsehood in his tone.

Shen Yuxin, Huo Rong, and Bing Rong's eyes lit up as they also heaved a sigh internally. They also felt proud of Shen Yuan's mature view of his future.

Yue Lan smiled slightly as she looked at the reaction of Shen Yuxin and the others. She had already expected how this event would play out. After all, she was trying her best to keep Shen Yuan's future in mind.

Shen Yuan got silent while looking at their positive reaction and finally smiled slightly. He was also a little happy at being able to give a solid answer.

"Alright, let's not talk about this further, we still need to discuss about my cultivation. Should we go to a place? Somewhere I can look learn some new stuff and hopefully also find something to feed my bloodline." He asked Shen Yuxin in a soft voice.

Shen Yuxin nodded her head as she considered for a moment and looked outside the window, it was already evening. She smiled slightly as she spoke, "We will stop at the next city to look around. It will take us quite some time so we will spend the night here."

Shen Yuan's eyes clouded with confusion as he asked, "Shouldn't it take only a few minutes with the speed of the ship? After all, we saw a lot of cities fly past us as we traveled when we were going towards the training ground."

Shen Yuxin smiled mischievously, "Yes yes, don't worry about it. The ship will be going slowly cause it doesn't have enough fuel."

"Wha-" Before Shen Yuan could even ask, Shen Yuxin spoke up to Huo Rong and Bing Rong. "Take him to the dining room and set up the table."

Bing Rong and Huo Rong got up and smilingly pulled at Shen Yuan's hands and began dragging him out of the room.

[Nyahaha~~]

Yue Lan transformed into light and went inside Shen Yuan's head, 'Hey, I didn't even check the system screen after the upgrade!' Shen Yuan yelled inside his head.

[Don't worry about it and just eat food, you can't do anything about it for now anyway since you don't have anyone in your harem. Just be good and find a few jade beauties.]

She spoke in a playful and seductive tone, the same as she had before taking on the form of a cat.

'Wait, why are you talking normally now? I thought you were a cat spirit or something.' Shen Yuan asked in puzzlement while Huo Rong and Bing Rong continued taking him to the dining room.

Each of them had taken a single hand of Shen Yuan, grasping it tightly as Shen Yuan felt their soft hands. Their silky smooth skin soothed his heart as he relaxed.

Yue Lan spoke up in a mesmerizing voice,

[You are enjoying yourself quite much huh, and for your earlier question. I only took the form of a cat and decided to play along with my role. I'm not literally a cat.]

Shen Yuan nodded his head internally as they soon reached the dining room. There was a round table with 4 chairs at the center and light decorations all around, like a few paintings of greenery or artifacts like lamps, etc.

Both Huo Rong and Bing Rong left Shen Yuan's hand as he moved forward to sit down on one of the chairs.

Before he even sat down properly, both Huo Rong and Bing Rong sat down on both sides of Shen Yuan, only leaving the seat directly facing him empty for Shen Yuxin.

"Are you sure about this? Won't Mom be angry with you if you take her spot?" Shen Yuan asked in a slightly curious tone, as he knew the worst they would get was a spanking from his mother so he wasn't worried about them much.

"Hehehe, you don't have to worry about that, since she let us go with you first then it was a tacit agreement, so we can sit with you today. After all, she took you for the whole night after she returned that day. And then you had to leave for the training. So that's the reason she allowed us to sit with you."

Huo Rong giggled sweetly as she finished speaking. While Shen Yuan thought inwardly, 'Your happiness is quite cheap, Mom really scammed you.'

His eyes filled with pity as he raised his hand and patted Huo Rong's head, her soft hair feeling like a feather as he rubbed her head.

Huo Rong tilted her head as she looked at Shen Yuan, she questioned him when she saw the look of pity on Shen Yuan's face, which only made her annoyed even though she was feeling quite good being patted by Shen Yuan.
