My CEO Harem Cultivation System

[ Would You Like To Open The Mystery Boxes Now? ]

"Yes. Open one of the Mystery Boxes."

A miniature blue box appeared in front of him and opened itself to present the item.

[ You Have Gained LSO Water-breathing Chewing Gum x3 ]

Produced in LoveStellar Organization's labs, one stick of gum allows you to visit and stay in underwater planets, oceans and other bodies of water for 24 hours. No need to produce gills, fins or anything to assimilate to the environment. This is the perfect intergalactic diplomatic chewable item that saves both your time and breath!

Comes in berry delicious and cherry pop flavors.

Each packet sold separately.

Li Yang held the small packets in his hand and raised a brow.. The packaging was similar and clean, like the Divine Energizer Drink he had purchased in the shop. But this was once again another thing he wouldn't be able to use. He couldn't exactly find a purpose for this unless he went scuba-diving. And even then, when would that occur?

The CEO moved on to the last and final Mystery Box he would open today. He thought about buying the Sage's Dao of Attraction in the Shop but didn't feel like it would be that effective. Either way, it would just increase his expense when it could have been used for something else. His cultivation.

[ Would You Like To Open Mystery Box? ]

"Yes."

The gift box that soon appeared in his vision was bigger than usual and hovered in the air with a grey box wrapped in green vines—it unwrapped itself quickly until it finally showed itself to him.

[ You Have Received Prehistoric Saber-tooth Dagger x1 ]

A dagger made from the vicious and sharp tooth of the Sabertooth, it is a dangerous melee weapon. Mammoths and Beastkin beware!

Quality: Moderate

Rarity: Common

A primitive looking dagger was now perched on his table, the blade obviously coming from the said creature and with a carefully made hilt. It came along with a sheath for him to use, but Li Yang only picked up the blade and found that while it was heavy, it wasn't that heavy and wouldn't quickly wear him out.

The notification soon came after.

[ Achievement Unlocked! ]

[ What's Inside? The Heavens Decide! - II ]

You have opened 3x Mystery Box

[ You Have Received 1000 Charm Points ]

"Hmmm…" He gave the space in front of him an experimental slash of the blade. There was a certain feral look to it that made it look more fierce, but he wasn't sure of how it would fare against an opponent. It was a modern time so it might have been more comfortable or normal with a gun as a more secure weapon, but what were the chances that he'd mess it up and shoot himself?

… although that wasn't exactly useful either.

The Panda spoke about him being weak and still penetrable by a bullet, so it meant that those in higher realms than him could take a bullet. What about nuclear? How did a full-time cultivator compared to it? It was another thing that made him question—

His phone vibrated, and he stashed the dagger in his desk's drawer before he picked his phone up. On the screen was an unknown number… he frowned but answered it. "Hello?"

'My daughter is missing!' was the sound that came from the other end of the line. 'I need your help, Yang. I can't find her all by myself—what if she got abducted or kidnapped?'

Li Yang blinked and then realized who it was, and her voice was bordering on close to hysteria. He ignored the sudden pound of his heart and focused on the situation at hand, "Miss Luo Ju Di, how did it happen?"

'One of the hotel staff attendants came across our room with the door completely unlocked and left ajar and… Chunhua's gone!'

"You left her alone at the hotel? Where are you now?" he asked. His thoughts turned back to the Panda he sent. Was it because of the creature's arrival?

'She's always been such a good girl and doesn't mind when I leave her—'

So it was the Panda.

Li Yang's grip tightened slightly on his phone, and he took a deep breath. There was no time to point fingers at anyone. "I'll look for her, but have someone check any of the surveillance around the hotel. She shouldn't have gone that far."

'What if someone—'

"I'll find her, please calm down and do what you can for now." Li Yang hung up and rubbed his face. But the System was already showing him a display screen before he could even attempt to contact the Panda through the message feature.

[ You Have Received A Side Quest! ]

Side Quests are generated by the System or sponsored by Observers from the Heavens

[ Side Quest: Seeking the Lost Child ]

The Heavens see the missing child in the bustling streets of Shanghai. Because of the mistake of one, many have suffered—search for the child and reunite with her mother.

[ Time Remaining: 58 minutes and 30 seconds ]

[ Success: 5000 Charm Points ]

[ Failure: Scandal With Your Company ]

There wasn't even an option to say no to a 'side-quest' but Li Yang already gave his word to the mother. Whether or not it was actually his problem, the Heavens decided it was so. But what weighed on him was the time limit—the man made his way out of his office and approached his secretary. "Miss He, I have an urgent question."

She looked up to him in alarm, "What is it, Mister Li?"

"Where's the address to Luo Ju Di's current accommodations?" He would head there and—

[ You Have Lost 5 Charisma Points ]

"A-Ah, I'll give you the address, sir," Ying Yue He was quick to jot it down on a sticky notepad and then stuck it to his hand. Never exactly sounding upset, but her movements were brash. "Please have a pleasant trip."

She didn't understand it.

Li Yang gave her a look, "If there's any chance that the child from yesterday gets here—let me know. She's missing and I'm going out to find her. Please cancel any schedule I have within the next two hours."

And then he was gone.

The CEO got into his car and stuck the address on the dashboard, glancing at Ying Yue He's scribbled penmanship and drove. Perhaps it might have been better to bring her along, but if the child somehow stumbled back into the company, she would be there.

He trusted her.

What he couldn't get behind was the Panda's actions. It seemed like if things weren't interesting around him, the creature would set up their own scenarios to get the Heavens paying attention to them. He didn't like the fact that a child was getting involved, but there was nothing he could do now except find her.

The faster he did—the better things would be. Li Yang didn't know what came to the mother's mind of leaving a child alone either… well, he could almost understand it. His own father was gone for most of his childhood because of business, but he didn't think something like this could happen right now. "Couldn't she have gotten a nanny?" he asked himself, a little annoyed.

He sent a message to the Panda.

CEO: Where's the child?

Panda: !

The exclamation mark provided no context at all, and he asked again. Not exactly liking the response and half-wondering if that was an intentional answer to make things harder for him. Li Yang would drive through the streets and look around for the sight of the girl on the off chance that she got far, but other than that—he drove towards the hotel.

It was better for him to search her on foot sooner or later.

He had little time.

. . .

Two people stopped in front of Luo Chunhua and gave her a smile.

"Are you lost, kid?"

"Where's your mommy?"

The young girl was often brave, but the look from the two much older men in front of her didn't bode well for her—as if there was something covering them in sickly purple and green. Her legs didn't move that well and her gaze darted around the crowd, most of the individuals bustling past them without a hint of regard.

Until she felt a familiar presence and spotted a tall figure in the distance.

Chunhua's eyes widened, and she ran into the man's direction, bumping and pushing past other people, "Uncle Yang! Uncle Yang!" Of course, he would be close by if his pet Panda-Goblin was around. Her body jerked forward, and she shouted, "Uncle Yang—"

Right before her knees could meet the cold pavement, someone grabbed her arm, and she looked up to see… Uncle Yang? Chunhua's eyes squinted at the man. The surrounding air was close to Uncle Yang, and even his face, but it wasn't him.

"Look who you caught, Liang." There was a mature and beautiful woman standing beside him and with an overpowering color of pink and red enshrouding her compared to the man's own muted gray. "Must be another case of a mistaken identity, I assume?"

This man managed a small laugh and shook his head, and he let go of her arm and gave her a kind look. "I'm not exactly sure, my brother is named Yang, but if he's an uncle to this child then who am I?"

Chunhua's lips quivered, "Y-You're not Uncle Yang?" She could see that she was mistaken, but if he wasn't him and the Panda was gone and she didn't know where she was—

"I'm afraid not." he said, but then the man knelt in front of her and scratched the back of his head. "But where's your mother or father? You should be more careful and not just run after a person because you thought he was someone else."
