Many children, many blessings; a stunningly beautiful wife is given to you right from the start.

The first one to pounce was Gu Ling'er, that little cannonball.

She threw Lin Mo onto the bed and cried so loudly that she wiped her snot and tears all over his clothes.

Lin Mo was so badly knocked out by her that he almost passed out again, and he was just about to say a few words of comfort.

Then I heard the girl howling at the top of her lungs.

"Waaaah... You stinky Lin Mo, you're finally awake!"

"I thought you were going to die! What am I going to do about my allowance?"

Lin Mo almost choked on his breath.

So you cried for so long just because you were worried about your little bit of pocket money?

Qin Ruxue couldn't stand it anymore, so she tore Gu Ling'er off Lin Mo and threw her aside.

"Why are you so troublesome?"

"What happened? How did you get yourself into this state?"

Qin Ruxue looked Lin Mo up and down, her eyes bloodshot, clearly indicating she hadn't rested well in the past few days.

The questioning at this moment was filled with barely suppressed fear.

"It's just... I went hunting in the mountains and accidentally stepped on a landmine. It's nothing, nothing at all."

Lin Mo waved his hand, appearing nonchalant.

As a result, when he raised his hand, the movement was a little too large, and he immediately felt a tingling numbness in his waist, causing him to involuntarily hunch down.

"hiss--"

Lin Mo gasped and instinctively clutched his lower back.

Qin Ruxue immediately noticed that something was wrong.

"That's not right..."

"You don't look injured, you look completely drained..."

She moved closer to Lin Mo with suspicion, examining him closely.

Then he looked down again at the messy bed that had clearly not been tidied up.

And there's that faint, lingering, enchanting scent in the air...

Qin Ruxue immediately understood what was going on.

His face immediately darkened.

"Lin Mo!"

Her shout was full of energy.

"You just crawled back from the brink of death, and then...and then..."

Qin Ruxue was so angry that she could barely speak, and her finger pointing at Lin Mo was trembling.

"You dare to act recklessly?! Are you out of your mind?!"

That bastard is practically asking for death—he's asking for it!

Liu Yiyi moved gracefully to the bedside, her captivating peach blossom eyes sweeping over Lin Mo.

A moment later, he covered his mouth with his sleeve and chuckled.

"Hehe... Second sister, why are you angry with your husband?"

"My husband seems perfectly fine, it's just that..."

Liu Yiyi deliberately drew out her words, glancing at Lin Mo with seductive eyes.

"I just don't know which good friend is so caring towards her husband. She just woke up and immediately helped to examine him, and she did such a thorough examination."

Lin Mo's face immediately turned as red as a monkey's bottom.

"Nonsense! I'm severely weakened, and my internal injuries haven't healed yet!"

"Yeah?"

Gu Ling'er, that curious little thing, came over again and sniffed Lin Mo like a puppy.

"Huh? Why do I smell Sixth Sister's scent? It smells so nice..."

Swish-!

In an instant, everyone's gaze in the room was fixed on Shen Qinghe.

Whether out of curiosity, gossip, admiration, or shock...

Shen Qinghe felt as if she had been stripped naked and thrown into the street, with several pairs of eyes scanning her back and forth, making every pore of her body burn.

Her delicate face flushed bright red instantly, from her cheeks all the way down to the roots of her neck, as if she wanted to disappear into a crack in the ground right then and there.

That courage I had last night, the "you lie still, I'll do the work" attitude, has long since vanished.

Right now, all she wants is to die on the spot.

"Cough cough cough!"

Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, Lin Mo quickly coughed frantically, trying to forcefully change the subject.

"Stop fooling around! Let's get down to business!"

"While I was unconscious for the past few days, has anything gone wrong in the city?"

Qin Ruxue glared at Lin Mo, but ultimately suppressed her anger and gave a cold report.

"Don't worry, everything is going well."

"The White Wolf Stronghold has been completely taken over, and the spoils of war have been counted and stored."

"Apart from the fact that you, as the head of the manor, almost ruined yourself, everything else is fine."

Hearing this, Lin Mo finally felt relieved.

Second Sister is reliable when she gets things done.

With his worries gone, Lin Mo immediately put on a weak expression, clutching his chest and waving his hand listlessly.

"Ahem... Let's leave it at that for now."

"I just woke up and I'm still weak. With you all gathered around here, I can't breathe."

"Everyone, please leave first. Let me have some peace and quiet."

The girls were immediately unhappy when he gave them the order to leave.

"No! What if you faint again?"

"Exactly, we have to keep an eye on you!"

"Husband, shall I peel an apple for you?"

They chattered away, each one more concerned than the last.

But Lin Mo was in no mood for apples right now; he had a ton of things to do.

The witch trapped in the crystal needs research, and the upgraded [Map of Mountains and Rivers] is still not fully understood. Just thinking about these things makes one's heart race with anticipation.

Just as Lin Mo was at his wit's end and didn't know what to do, Su Qingyue, who had been silent all along, spoke up.

"Alright, stop fooling around."

She walked to the bedside and gently tucked the blanket around Lin Mo, her tone leaving no room for refusal.

"Let my husband rest well, let's all go out first."

When the eldest sister speaks, her words carry weight.

Although the women looked reluctant, they obediently followed them out.

Gu Meng'er walked to the door, then turned back, her big, bright eyes blinking as she looked at Lin Mo, and whispered:

"My lord, shall I make you your favorite osmanthus cake?"

Lin Mo felt a warmth in his heart.

Of all the wives, Meng'er is the most obedient and considerate.

He waved to Gu Meng'er.

The little girl immediately flew back like a happy little butterfly.

Lin Mo gave her a quick kiss on her smooth forehead.

"My Meng'er is so good. Go on, your husband is waiting for your osmanthus cake."

Gu Meng'er blushed, covered her forehead, and happily ran out.

Once everyone had left, Lin Mo immediately jumped out of bed, rushed to the door in three quick steps, and locked it from the inside with a "click".

Immediately afterward, he took out the pills he had previously obtained from the system space.

Three Body Tempering Pills and five Blood Nourishing Pills.

Lin Mo first grabbed three body-tempering pills the size of peanuts and, like eating candy, popped them all into his mouth with a "crunch".

A scalding torrent instantly surged into Lin Mo's limbs and bones, as if it would melt Lin Mo's bones!

Lin Mo felt a series of crackling sounds coming from deep within his bones, as if every inch of his fascia was being recast and forged!

He couldn't help but let out a muffled groan, his whole body trembling violently!

After a short while, that domineering power gradually subsided.

[Realm]: Body Tempering Stage Sixth Level (Great Completion)

Excellent! Breaking through to the seventh level is just around the corner!

Lin Mo clenched his fist, feeling an unprecedented sense of solidity in his bones and muscles.

Then, he looked at the five blood-red Blood Nourishing Pills.

[Blood Nourishing Pill]: After taking it, it can instantly replenish the depleted Qi and blood, and slightly increase the upper limit of Qi and blood.

"Increase the maximum amount of Qi and Blood?"

"nice one."

Lin Mo recalled the terror of almost being drained dry by the witch before, and without hesitation, he picked up a pill and threw it directly into his mouth.

As the pill entered his throat, a surge of immense vitality exploded forth, like a dried-up riverbed being filled with surging water!

The feeling of being completely drained was swept away, replaced by an unprecedented sense of fullness and strength!

"Cool!"

This one pill completely restored his depleted health bar, and even caused some to overflow!

Returned to its peak condition.

Lin Mo turned his attention back to the ultimate prize of this expedition—the stunningly beautiful witch who was a perfect 100.

He moved his hands and feet, clearing out all the tables, chairs, and benches in the center of the room, making a large open space.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Mo immersed his consciousness into the exclusive storage space of the Mountain and River Hegemony Map, locking onto the eerie purple light floating in the void.

"Come out here!"

Lin Mo had a sudden thought and gave a low shout.
