My CEO Harem Cultivation System

Chunhua herself didn't have any idea as to where the 'messenger of death' took her mother at all when it left. She tried to chase after the Being but it disappeared from her sight and she had instead fallen to her knees at that time. 

The young girl didn't even know if it was actually possible to retrieve her mother back, and it seemed like the man didn't know either. But she still placed her faith in her Uncle Yang who gave her that promise.

He was going to figure it out on his own.

"I'll go for now, Chunhua." Li Yang made his way to the door.

Chunhua ran up to him and grabbed at his sleeve. "This time… you'll come back again, right?"

"Of course, I'll be back."

"Okay, I'll see you, Uncle Yang!" Chunhua smiled at him. "I'll… I'll tell Uncle Liang and Aunt Gabi that you came back and visited me when I see them later. I'm sure they'll be happy to know that you were here."

Li Yang paused at those words, but decided to say nothing. "Thank you." Whatever his brother was going to make out of it… then it was up to him. He was going to prioritize Luo Ju Di and his daughter now.

It was about time that he did it.

Even when Chunhua didn't know where her mother was exactly, that didn't mean that he didn't have his own way to find out information about his destination. 

A System was literally in his fingertips, and compared to the earlier version—it was patch updated to have everything else in addition to the harem-related functions. Did it present him with more options and was the price worth the cost?

Li Yang hadn't heard anything from DatPeach in awhile, but surely, something was bound to happen in the future. For now, he summoned the System and went right ahead to business.

[ Welcome back to Earth, Host! ]

"I need to find someone who recently died and has been taken away by some sort of creature," Li Yang said. "Possibly a grim reaper of sorts. Or an entity that collects recently deceased souls." 

[ The Host Currently Lacks The Ability And Information To Access The Afterlife Train ]

The man blinked at the information available on the screen, before only frowning slightly. "Access a train? Then there's a ticket for it. Summon shop." 

Li Yang stared at the System's shop portion and quickly filtered in the results. He soon gazed at numerous items available and was counting on seeing something that allowed him to find Luo Ju Di or access the station.

Perhaps there was something that might make it possible to find her directly? 

Whether it was the System detecting the general direction of his train of thoughts, or simply similar to how companies were able to purchase one's personal information online—several products displayed themselves in front of the CEO and were begging to be purchased.

It could have been the filter too, but it wasn't what he was quite looking for.

"I need to find something that shows any sort of connection that I have to Luo Ju Di herself." Li Yang sighed and went for the next tab, until the creature supposed to be transmitting to the Heavens decided to voice out its concerns. 

The Panda raised its paws angrily at him. "I thought you were supposed to be rational—"

"Will you be complaining or are you going to give me answers, Bao?" Li Yang stared at the floating creature. "It doesn't seem like going to the afterlife is so hard if this is how it now functions."

"Grr… There are multiple stations! Depending on the soul's current assessment and affiliation—that Luo Ju Di can end up anywhere—"

"I can probably secure a ticket even if I'm not dead yet, right? Similar to paying a fare to Charon—"

Bao raised a paw at him and quickly shushed him. "Don't go around dropping names! Names have power you incompetent—"

Li Yang swatted the creature away and sighed. "A certain creature seems to have taken away Luo Ju Di and I have to secure a ticket and find the station where she's supposed to be dropped off. That seems simple enough, doesn't it?"

"Well, you're not dead yet." Bao thrust a paw at him. "Unless you want to be dead, I can do you a favor and send you to the underworld myself."

Li Yang stared at the menacing creature without blinking one bit. Excuses like those weren't something he wished to hear when numerous tales that might have held truth were available. They were bound to be available.

"People can still purchase things as long as they can pay the price for it—"

"What if the payment is your life and soul? Geez."

Li Yang shifted his gaze away from the creature. "There's always bound to be an alternative—ah, this one might help."

[ Necromancer's Circle of Death ]

A must have for all death-seekers!

It's difficult to create an aura of death and stench to fully maximize spellcasting when one's immediate area is filled with the aura of life and holy power. Immediately cast and build a 'Circle of Death' that creates an environment perfect for raising undead or contacting dead souls.

Warning: Different entities both from the undead and anti-necromantic forces may pick up this circle. Depending on the power of the circle, it can also capture death-related individual's attention. 

Bao stared at the screen and slapped a paw over its face. 

"Surely you understand that dealing with such a thing like this and also attempting to revive a person meant to be dead is going against the natural order of things, right?"

Li Yang stared at the creature who brought him the System in the first place and he crossed his arms. "What seems to be the problem? This is bound to be exciting for the Heavens, won't it? Am I not supposed to be their entertainment?"

"I loathe the fact that I'll be saying this—but you'll be courting death!"

Author's Note: I was expecting this arc about Luo Ju Di to happen later down the line. Like maybe after Anna Song's arc and yet here we are xD I finally feel accomplished to use the "YOU'RE COURTING DEATH!" line and makes this feel like a legit Chinese cultivation novel lol. Thanks for reading today's chapters!
