Primordial Harem System

Han Qingyu felt an overwhelming oppression as she lowered her head instinctively. Not daring to meet the gaze of a peak expert.

Meanwhile, when Shen Yuan felt the overwhelming oppression, his bloodline reacted instantly, releasing a soft energy throughout his body that dispelled any sense of oppression.

Shen Yuan didn't mind this as he could tell that she was not doing this purposely, but instead, it was an instinctive reaction from their bodies when meeting someone at a much higher cultivation base than theirs.

After standing there for a while, the sect leader finally finished her song as she opened her eyes to look at Shen Yuan and the others, her eyes sparkled with divine light as if containing the myriad world. It felt like no secret could be veiled in front of those divine eyes.

Han Qingyu nearly kneeled when she felt the pressure intensifying, but Shen Yuan put a hand on her shoulder and the pressure vanished for her as well.

The Sect Leader's eyes flashed with surprise as she retracted all her pressure, "My apologies. I couldn't resist examining you more closely when I saw you standing before me. You truly are something else, even I can't see through you completely."

Shen Yuan left Han Qingyu's side and stepped forward a bit, he bowed slightly in respect before speaking, "No need to mind about that, my mom talked a lot about you before, Senior Mei Hua."

He took a good look at her after finishing speaking, she was wearing a thin pink veil, covering her face as they revealed her enchanting pink eyes, and her pink hair reached her waist.

She was sitting barefoot beside the lake with a zither, looking curiously at Shen Yuan.

Mei Hua's eyes curled slightly as if smiling a bit, she asked gently, "Yuxin, huh…, what did she say about me?"

'Fuck! She never talked about you! I was just being polite.' Shen Yuan groaned inwardly while thinking about what to make up.

"My mother mentioned you in passing during my training sessions, Senior Mei Hua. She talked about your graceful ways of handling the sect and how you give pointers to juniors in the sect. She admires you a lot, and that left quite an impression on me." He prayed that this vague compliment would be enough to satisfy her curiosity.

Mei Hua's pink eyes gleamed with amusement as she giggled, "Hehe~ You shouldn't compliment others if you are not used to it. I know for certain she didn't tell you anything about me or the sect. She likes to keep the suspense of things. As for her admiring me?" She placed a hand on her lips and chuckled softly, "I am merely a junior in front of her, why would she admire me?"

Shen Yuan's eyes twitched as Mei Huo saw through his lie, he coughed to hide his embarrassment, "Cough, It's not like that, Senior. I just didn't know how to start the conversation."

Huo Rong and Han Qingyu stood some distance away, suppressing their laughter as they looked at Shen Yuan, while Xun Shuren shook her head and muttered under her breath, "I asked him to behave in front of the sect leader but this guy…"

Mei Hua stopped laughing but still held a smile behind her veil, she asked softly, "Tell me Shen Yuan, why do you want to join my Radiant Lotus Sacred Sect? It's an all-female sect you know? It has never happened in our sect, so it will cause quite a stir if it happened."

Shen Yuan also calmed down and looked straight at her before replying, "Because my Mom and Sisters asked me to join it."

Mei Hua waited for a bit for him to continue. But seeing that he was not continuing, she asked in a slightly confused voice, "That's it? You are joining just because your Mom and Sisters asked you to? Didn't you think of joining sects more suitable for you? Please don't take offence but I don't think our sect's techniques are suitable for you."

Shen Yuan smiled confidently and replied, "You need not worry about it. I already have a cultivation technique and I don't want another one. As for joining a better sect, that's out of the question, whichever sect I join will become the best sect. It will be boring to join the strongest sects from the beginning."

Mei Hua looked at him in confusion, not comprehending his thought process but she soon shook her head to get rid of stray thoughts and asked again, "So, now that you have visited our sect, do you still plan to join it?"

Shen Yuan looked at her with slight confusion, "Shouldn't you be the one accepting or refusing me?"

Mei Hua smiled lightly, "What are you talking about? With your talent alone, no sect would refuse you. Nearly all sects of the Desolate Continent would wage war for you if they knew about your talent. Why would we refuse you, even if we talk about our only female rule, you have already passed the trial set by our founding ancestor."

She paused, looking intently at Shen Yuan, "Now, it's up to you whether you want to join our sect or not. We won't ask for the Ancestral Pagoda as that was written our Ancestral records, whoever inherits the Pagoda will have full control over it."

Shen Yuan nodded in understanding, "I see…so that's how it was arranged. Then I will…"

Huo Rong, Han Qingyu, Xun Shuren, and Mei Hua waited with bathed breaths to hear Shen Yuan's decision.

"...join the Radiant Lotus Sacred Sect, since that was why I came this far. And my family is already here, so it would be better to just stay here until I'm strong enough to travel the land on my own." he finished speaking with a smile on his face.

All the other women heaved a sigh of relief hearing his decision. Then they all got happy receiving a peerless genius in their sect.

"Welcome to the Sect, Shen Yuan." Xun Shuren came forward a bit and welcomed Shen Yuan into the sect.

Mei Hua also nodded her head, "Very well, Shen Yuan, you are welcome to the sect. But where do you think we should place you?"

She asked him for his opinion on this matter since he would be the one to receive the treatment of that rank.

Shen Yuan thought for a second before replying, "Outer Sect disciple would be the best for now."

Huo Rong stepped forward a bit and nudged him, "Are you sure about that, Yuan'er? You can directly become a core disciple you know. Why do you want to become an outer disciple."

Shen Yuan turned around and patted her head lightly before explaining in a gentle tone, "You tell me, when an unknown male disciple, who no one has even heard of, joined one of the most powerful all-female sects of Eastern Desolate Region, and as a core disciple at that. How would the sect disciples react?"

Huo Rong contemplated for a bit before answering, "There would be unrest in the sect, disciples might even be dissatisfied with the treatment of the sect. And the top disciples will think that an outsider stole a spot of the core disciple from them."
