Why should I dwell on that wrong decision from the past?
There's always a way.
Just then, a flash of inspiration suddenly struck Lin Ci's mind.
My main mission in this world is to conquer the known universe and spread my faith.
Now, the four civilizations of Angels, Demons, Styx, and Sun have all submitted.
His Shadow Legion spread the flame of faith of the "Lord of All Gods" to every corner of the universe.
The task has been completed to an extremely high degree.
As is customary, the system will issue rewards upon completion of world quests.
If this reward...
Lin Ci's eyes suddenly lit up.
It was a glimmer of hope seen in the midst of despair.
The somber and oppressive aura surrounding him vanished instantly.
"My God, you've come up with a solution?"
He Xi was the first to notice his change and asked in surprise.
Keisha, Liang Bing, and Qi Lin all looked over at the same time, their eyes filled with anticipation.
Looking at their expectant gazes, Lin Ci's lips curled back into that familiar, all-encompassing smile.
"Hmm, there's another way."
"any solution?"
Liang Bing was the most anxious and pressed for answers directly.
Lin Ci shook his head.
"I still do not know yet."
Liang Bing was stunned.
Keisha and Hexi also looked puzzled.
Lin Ci explained.
"But it is a hope, and a hope with a high probability."
His words caused all four women to fall into deep thought.
Lin Ci chuckled lightly.
"Alright, let's not talk about those heavy things for now. From now on, the four of you will stay by my side."
"Let's see if that old space geezer dares to come."
He reached out and pulled Qi Lin, Keisha, Liang Bing, and He Xi into his arms, holding the four women tightly.
He whispered in their ears, in an unquestionable tone.
"I want them all."
"As long as I am here, no one can be harmed."
And they are unreasonable.
But it instantly filled the hearts of the four women with a tremendous sense of happiness and security.
Their gods, their men, are the most unreasonable beings in the universe.
Rules are meant to bind mortals.
And he is the god who sets the rules.
The huge weight that had been pressing on everyone's hearts finally dissipated completely.
The atmosphere in the council chamber relaxed again.
Lin Ci released them and lazily leaned back on the throne.
His gaze swept over the four women one by one.
From Keisha's elegance and nobility to Hexi's intellectual aloofness.
Then there's Liang Bing's fiery and alluring charm, and finally Qi Lin's heroic and dashing spirit.
Four distinct styles have come together at this moment, vying for attention and beauty.
A hint of amusement flashed in Lin Ci's eyes.
He tapped the armrest gently.
"My beloved concubines."
All four women's eyes were fixed on him.
It's getting late.
Keisha glanced subconsciously at the sky outside the council chamber.
The stars of the Angel Nebula are high in the sky, shining brightly.
It's only morning.
He Xi and Qi Lin were also somewhat bewildered.
Only Liang Bing was the first to react.
Her pretty face flushed red instantly.
She stared wide-eyed at Lin Ci, her captivating eyes widening, and stammered slightly.
"You...you...what do you want to do?"
Seeing Liang Bing's expression, Keisha and He Xi instantly understood Lin Ci's meaning.
Even though she had lived for tens of thousands of years and was the queen who ruled the order of the universe.
Keisha's cheeks involuntarily flushed a beautiful blush, and her eyes darted away.
He Xi buried her face in Lin Ci's arms, not daring to look up.
As a modern woman, Qi Lin felt shy, but more than that, she felt a sense of novelty and excitement.
This is... way too fancy.
Lin Ci chuckled as he watched their fascinating expressions.
"How about we go and rest?"
The days that followed were unprecedented for the entire Angel Civilization.
Their lord of all gods, their supreme deity.
Completely "indulged" in the pleasures of love, he almost never stepped out of his bedchamber again.
And their three queens, as well as that god-queen from Earth.
They also disappeared from the sight of all the angels.
Lin Ci transformed the palace of the Heavenly Court of Merlo into a separate little world.
Here, there are no complicated military and political affairs, no cosmic disturbances.
Only endless joy and tenderness.
Lin Ci fully experienced what it meant to enjoy the life of an emperor.
When he wanted to discuss academic matters, Tianji Wang Hexi would talk with him all night long, from the theory of the void to the genes of the divine body. Every collision of ideas deepened the admiration in Hexi's eyes.
When he wanted to stretch his muscles, Tianqi King Liang Bing would change into a tight-fitting outfit and "spar" with him on the simulated battlefield. Every time he was easily suppressed by him, Liang Bing would demand even more from him.
When he wanted to look down upon the universe, Queen Keisha of the Heavenly Blade would nestle beside him and tell him about the rise and fall of cosmic civilizations over the past 30,000 years. The majesty and decisiveness of a king would turn into tender affection in his presence.
When he wanted to feel peaceful, Qilin would brew a pot of tea from Earth and quietly keep him company, saying nothing and doing nothing. That simplicity and purity was the best way to soothe him.
Lin Ci was lazily lying on a soft bed made of nebula matter.
He Xi leaned against him, her fingertips tracing circles on his chest.
Liang Bing lay beside him, teasing him restlessly.
Keisha knelt by the bed, peeling a purple crystal grape with her slender fingers, preparing to put it into his mouth.
Qi Lin, on the other side, carefully massaged his shoulders.
The sounds of orioles and swallows, the soft fragrance of jade.
The real human world...
No, it is the joy of heaven and man.
Just as Keisha brought the crystal-clear grape to Lin Ci's lips.
A cold, mechanical, yet heavenly notification sounded in his mind without warning.
[The belief in the "Lord of All Gods" has been detected to cover more than 70% of the known civilizations in the universe...]
[Current world main quest: Conquest, completed.]
[Settling task rewards...]
Chapter 163 The Choices Given by the System
[Settling task rewards...]
[Reward selection complete.]
Based on the host's strongest current fluctuations in will, the reward for this mission offers the following two options.
A glimmer of light was instantly ignited deep within Lin Ci's eyes.
[Option 1: Provide the host with an additional "Spirit Binding and Commanding" slot.]
The huge rock of frustration that had been weighing on Lin Ci's heart was almost shattered by these words.
