My Xianxia Harem Life

A week passed, and Riley remained in his estate, enjoying the tranquility of nature and the warmth of his women. The days were filled with pleasure, the nights even more so. Yet, he was not entirely idle.

Between his indulgences, he devoted time to guiding his lovers in their cultivation.

Under his instruction, they progressed effortlessly, each reaching the 10th stage of the Spirit Severing Realm as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

It was a feat that should have taken years, even decades, yet with Riley’s guidance, it happened with the ease of a casual breath. However, he kept this achievement a well-guarded secret.

If word got out, it would undoubtedly cause a frenzy.

The sheer unfairness of it would drive others into a desperate competition, each woman in his orbit scrambling to earn his favor, eager to have their strength elevated in the same way.

For now, only a select few had received his blessing—Katherine, Veronica, Leia, Fay, Ava, and of course, Eve. Though Eve had been the first to benefit, Riley didn’t truly count her among them even at this time.

He knew that she was merely a bedwarmer today, a temporary indulgence rather than a true partner. But things will change in the future, but until then, she was not yet fully part of his life and Eve also knew that too.

His days passed in luxury, his estate a sanctuary of power and pleasure. The outside world felt distant, insignificant. But such peace was never meant to last.

One afternoon, as Riley lounged on the balcony, enjoying the soft caress of the breeze, he sensed a presence approaching. Moments later, Ruby arrived, her expression composed yet carrying a hint of intrigue. She carried a large ornate box, holding it with both hands as she stepped forward.

”Young Master Riley, a gift,” she said, bowing slightly. ”This comes from the people, a symbol of your sovereignty over these lands, now known as the Mason Empire.”

Riley arched an eyebrow but accepted the box, his curiosity piqued.

The Mason Empire?

It seemed his rule had solidified in the eyes of the people even with him doing absolutely nothing at all. Without hesitation, he lifted the lid, revealing the contents within.

Inside lay an exquisitely crafted golden crown. It was heavy, its surface polished to a brilliant shine, reflecting the light like a divine artifact.

The craftsmanship was flawless—intricate engravings lined its edges, each detail speaking of the dedication and reverence of its creators.

And yet, despite its beauty, Riley could immediately tell it was nothing more than a decorative piece.

There were no formations, no hidden enchantments, no grand power contained within. It was merely a crown of gold, a symbol of authority rather than a tool of strength.

Still, he couldn’t help but smirk.

And then—

”Ding!”

A familiar sound rang through his mind, followed by the sexy voice of his system.

”Congratulations, host! You have successfully acquired a wisp of faith energy. Please select one of the three available rewards.”

Riley’s eyes flickered with interest. Faith energy? He hadn’t expected that. He had long known that power came in many forms—strength, wealth, influence—but faith was something different.

It was intangible yet potent, a force capable of reshaping destiny itself.

He closed the box, his smirk widening.

An unexpected gift, indeed.

He checked his character status first and saw the details next.

Riley then checked the rewards of the system.

1. Void Sanctuary – A personal, hidden dimension accessible solely by the user. This pocket space exists beyond the boundaries of the physical and spiritual realms, rendering it utterly undetectable to any being. Not even true immortals, with their vast powers and knowledge, can breach or perceive its existence. The Void Sanctuary serves as the ultimate refuge, ensuring the user’s safety and privacy under any circumstances.

2. Eyes of True Discernment are eyes that are imbued with the power of absolute clarity, allowing the user to see beyond surface appearances and understand the true nature of everything they perceive. Whether it’s a person’s soul, the deepest secrets of the world, or the hidden intentions behind every action, the Eyes of True Discernment grant the ability to perceive things as they truly are, without deception or illusion. The user can see through lies, uncover hidden truths, and instantly recognize the core essence of any being, object, or phenomenon.

3. Ten Thousand Shadow Clones - a supreme divine art that allows the user to manifest up to 10,000 perfect clones, each possessing a complete copy of the user’s strength, intelligence, and skills. Unlike ordinary cloning techniques that create mere illusions or weak doppelgangers, this technique forges clones with true combat capabilities, making them indistinguishable from the original in battle. Each clone shares a soul link with the user, allowing for perfect coordination and instantaneous communication. Clones can act independently, execute complex battle strategies, and even cultivate—allowing the user to accelerate learning, comprehension, and mastery of techniques at an absurd rate.

”Hmmm…” Riley mused, deep in thought.

”The Ten Thousand Shadow Clones is overpowered, no doubt… but the Void Sanctuary would ensure my loved ones’ safety no matter what. That’s more important right now. Besides, in the future, I can always obtain the Ten Thousand Shadow Clones with ease.”

With his decision made, the system instantly responded.

”Ding!”

A notification appeared, reflecting his newly chosen ability in his status.
