Primordial Harem System

[Host need not worry for his family from his past life for now, they are still alive and living in your old world, Host can't reach that place as it is outside your current world in another plane altogether, host needs to reach the apex level of this world first before host can think about searching for his family again.]

Shen Yuan calmed down as well and the avatar of his bloodline also vanished from his sea of consciousness as he listened to the system explanation, his expression still hard as he considered his current situation, but he thought about something as he asked, 'What about the time difference between this world and my old world?'

[Host's previous world is in a special condition, merging with another world so the time dilation fluctuates anywhere from 2 times slower to 10 times slower or more, so 1 year in your previous world can be 2 years or 10 years in your current world, or it might even be higher depending on your previous world's situation.]

Shen Yuan took a moment to contemplate what the system said, he understood that he had plenty of time to go back to his old world, and he visibly heaved a sigh of relief as he got the confirmation of his mother's and sister's safety, but due to his sudden sigh of relief Shen Yuxin also woke up.

Shen Yuxin's eyes fluttered open as she looked below to see Shen Yuan lying down with closed eyes in her embrace; she smiled sweetly as she saw that he was already awake but didn't make noise so she could sleep peacefully.

She hugged him tightly as she spoke with a gentle tone, "Have you woken up Yuan'er?"

Yuan pulled back his face from her bosom as he smiled and replied in a happy tone, "Good morning, Mom. I woke up a while ago"

Shen Yuxin patted his head affectionately and asked, "You seem to be lost in thought, do you have some problem with something?"

Shen Yuan considered for a moment and made up his mind to talk about his past life with his mother, he didn't want to deceive her any longer.

"Mom, there is something I want to tell you." Shen Yuan began, his voice was steady with a hint of nervousness in it. He was worrying what Shen Yuxin would think of him, would she think that he deceived her for so long?

Shen Yuxin got serious as she heard the gravity of her son's voice, she gently patted his head and asked, "What is it Yuan'er? Just tell your mom, you can tell me anything you want."

She then fell silent, waiting for her son to muster up the courage to tell her whatever he would say.

Shen Yuan took a deep breath while considering what to say before he started talking, "I am a reincarnated being. Before I was born in this world, I was living in a world called Earth, I was an ordinary mortal, there was no such thing as Qi or cultivators in my previous world. I only have my mother and sister as my family,

…

He continued to talk about his past life with Shen Yuxin, who was listening attentively without interrupting him. He talked about his childhood, his hardships, and even the anime and novels that he used to watch and read.

As he reached the final moments of his last life when he died mysteriously Shen Yuxin hugged him closer. Shen Yuan took a shaky breath, the emotions of his past life still present even with the passage of time, "After I left from my work I died mysteriously, I don't even know how I died back then. Then the next thing I saw was you holding me as a baby."

Shen Yuan got silent as he spoke up to this point, waiting for his mom to digest what he said till now, Shen Yuxin gently stroked his hair, she still had that soft smile as she spoke gently, "I had my suspicions that you were a reincarnated person after all, no normal child is as smart and sensible as you."

"Even in this Desolate Continent, there are many legends of reincarnated cultivators so you don't have to worry about how I would treat you, and even in your last life when you were only 20 years old, you are still a child to me."

Shen Yuan visibly relaxed as he heard Shen Yuxin's words. He smiled lightly as he hugged Shen Yuxin tightly, Shen Yuxin smiled gently as she patted his head.

They stayed like that for a few more minutes as Shen Yuxin said, "Let's go eat breakfast or else both of your aunts would make fun of you for sleeping till so late."

Shen Yuan laughed lightly as he felt normal again after all that long talk at the mention of his aunts, "Alright, let's go eat breakfast now before they start teasing me."

They got up and made their way toward the dining hall, where both Huo Rong and Bing Rong were waiting for them while readying the food, setting up the table, etc.

"Good Morning Yuan'er," Bing Rong greeted Shen Yuan as he walked into the dining hall, she continued with a slightly cheerful tone, "You finally decided to join us."

Huo Rong also joined in the fun as she spoke, "We were starting to wonder if you were planning to sleep all day today."

Shen Yuan scratched the back of his head at their teasing as he just went to sit on his chair while ignoring their teasing words, he continued, "Good morning, Aunt Huo, Aunt Bing. I had a long discussion about myself with my Mom, that's why I was late. Now let's start eating before the food goes cold."
