My CEO Harem Cultivation System

What was more realistic than reality shows?

Actual real life, no doubt.

The One Who Slaughters: I would have preferred if he had beheaded that serpent creature himself. Or he drank the blood of it rather than let this group take it for themselves.

Sea Foam: What is it with you and blood? Do you want him to bathe in it? Not everyone is a war freak like you

Owl Brain: It is to be expected that there are benefits to consuming the blood of beasts stronger than yourself. Actually—he doesn't need to drink the blood like Blood Biters, but he could prepare a sumptuous meal with it. His people have special Gourmet Chefs that deal with monster parts, don't they? Was the pink-haired cultivator actually a chef "cultivator"?

Pomegranate: He's literally kissing his secretary now—why are you guys concerned over that snake? It took ages for them to do this and yet all of you are conversing about this stupid snake. 

The chatroom of the Heavens were in a state of some hot debate—most of which Li Yang practically tuned out of and practically muted, because they were mostly unhelpful like their conversation now.

Only Bao, the so-called "Panda" was forced to read and also gauge their reactions. It wasn't only a Transmitter but also someone who needed to create scenarios if the Heavens' Observers found it boring.

Li Yang who once called it a TV reality show was right on the money. 

Reality shows were still a performance that wanted to grab people's attention. Things were indeed scripted and even the depiction and screen time of each person on the cast was based on the assessments of the producer and camera crew.

In this case, Bao was the one expected to make it all interesting.

Thankfully, Li Yang managed to indeed make it something that people wanted to view… at least a targeted demographic. Most of which were indeed the feminine side of the Heavens—but they were still deities and powerful figures who kept the LSO running and essentially kept Bao stuck here in this goddamn awful realm. 

Even the sight of the 'star of the show' getting thrown into the sea and nearly passing out was nothing more than fanfare for them. A small step to the future.

Bao on the other hand had… actually tried to intervene.

And once again faced a stupid heavenly tribulation as a result. How was it supposed to know that Li Yang was going to survive? Humans were incredibly squishy and died far too easily, even the so-called cultivators.

Now the man was kissing Ying Yue He in the middle of the sea, his hand grabbing the back of her head as they vented their pent-up longings at last. A certain scene filled with two people long reunited after several months of not seeing each other.

Of two people that were perhaps always meant to be together.

… Bao really disliked that it would always have to be the one witnessing everything.

Li Yang's kiss with Ying Yue He ended around a minute or so, not exactly wanting everyone to witness the moment. Even if the Heavens could have very well classified him as a default exhibitionist in a sense.

Another small ship soon arrived and picked each and everyone of the men, including Ying Yue He who refused to get on board her flying sword and simply stayed at his side. 

"Alright, we've collected everyone—let's head back." The head of the expedition team called out to everyone and then threw a look down at the boat. "Yue He—you're not coming back up?"

"N-no. I'd much prefer to stay on the boat. The wind is a bit chilly," Ying Yue He said.

Everyone knew it was a ridiculous excuse for a cultivator, but she was able to stay with Li Yang. She never let go off his hand, even when the tips of her ears were burning bright red.

The cultivators that were flying on their swords made it a point to tease her about it.

Surprisingly or not, even these people who seem to be part of what Mou Gu could have called an evil sect or evil group did a good act of portraying themselves as humans. That was what was scary about some monsters and even gods—they did a great job of depicting themselves as someone ordinary and normal.

"Who would have known that the Moon Flower already has a partner," One of the few women cultivators on the sword called out with a laugh. 

"I guess this is why, Senior Longwei keeps getting rejected." Another chimed in, much to the embarrassment and chagrin of one of the men.

"Oh shut up—she's not my type." One of the male cultivators shouted at his companions, glanced at the woman aboard on the ship. "You're nice and all, Ying Yue He—but my heart belongs to someone else!" He then looked away with a huff.

Another cultivator shook his head. "Why are you even here with us?"

"My sound bats are taking care of the perimeters, I can go wherever I like."

Li Yang raised a brow at the nickname given to his secretary more than the presence of some cultivator who admired her—knowing fully well that she preferred him, as if the kiss wasn't enough of a sign—but Ying Yue He herself was just silent at his side and only blushed harder. 

It seemed like the other cultivators liked her, but the same couldn't be said for her.

She only intertwined her fingers with his and refused to even leave his side at all. Li Yang chuckled and tugged her closer. His secretary had always been cute, but now, he just kissed the top of her head. "Are you cold? I would offer my jacket, but we're both drenched."

Ying Yue He didn't know what to say—her lips were still tingling after the kiss and she was afraid that if she opened her mouth, she'd spew out only gibberish.

Where have you been?

How did you find me?

Such thoughts and feelings rested in her chest as she glanced up at his face and tried to see if there was anything that changed about her boss. Except for what appeared to be the very soaked office suit and him somehow feeling stronger than before, Ying Yue He was relieved to see him.

Her heart trembled slightly, but now that the two of them were together—

"We've reached the shore." One of the non-cultivator men shouted happily. After the incident in the sea, most of them were just happy to finally see dry land at last. This may have seemed like a fun time for cultivators as they captured a beast, but it was near traumatic for others.

"Welcome to one of the islands of the Liu Group, Li Yang." Yuan Gen interrupted as they finally reached the shore. Ying Yue He couldn't help but feel a tad nervous of what was going to happen after this.

But all she really knew was that she would do her best to leave the group. That was the thing that she had said in the beginning when she first came here and everyone was well-aware of that.

Even if they tried to deny it.
