In an instant, the entire bamboo house was filled with Lin Mo's roars, the woman's coughs, and the doctors' exclamations.

The scene was so chaotic that it resembled a brawl in a vegetable market.

Strangely, under this almost violent treatment, the women who were on the verge of death actually stabilized one by one.

The terrifying dark purple color on their faces gradually faded, and their breathing became steady and long.

After an unknown amount of time, when the last sister also fell into a deep sleep, the entire bamboo house finally became quiet.

Manager Sun and the doctors all collapsed to the ground, their clothes soaked with sweat.

But each of them had a look of joy on their faces, as if they had survived a disaster.

They...participated in a miracle!

Shangguan Yan walked to the bedside, her hand trembling as she reached out to check one of her sisters' breaths and then touched the forehead of another.

Warm.

They all breathe.

They are all still alive.

Shangguan Yan's taut nerves snapped completely at that moment.

She slowly turned around and walked towards the man who was standing with his hands on his hips, panting.

Just as Lin Mo was about to say, "It's nothing, no need to thank me," he saw Shangguan Yan walking straight toward him.

Then, in complete silence.

"Thump!"

Shangguan Yan knelt heavily on both knees in front of Lin Mo.

"Shangguan Yan thanks you for saving her life!"

Shangguan Yan's voice was hoarse, yet it carried a resolute determination that could shake mountains.

"From this day forward, our lives belong to our benefactor! We will brave mountains of knives and seas of fire, even unto death!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the other women in the bamboo house also knelt down in unison.

"Thank you so much for saving my life!"

The voices of dozens of women merged into one, echoing throughout the Hundred Herbs Garden, a truly moving sight.

Lin Mo was about to say something like, "Don't do that, our company doesn't have that kind of corporate culture. Get up and help me up, my legs are a little numb."

But his movements suddenly froze.

He was frozen in place, as if the pause button had been pressed.

[Ding! The quest "Mountain Elegy" has been completed!]

[Rewards: Hundred Flowers Camp Blueprint x1, Hegemony Points x5000!]

[Shangguan Yan's loyalty has been detected to be up to standard. Consume the Hundred Flowers Camp blueprint to unlock the special Hundred Flowers Camp at Iron Wall Pass?]

Good heavens, here it comes!

Overjoyed, Lin Mo immediately said: Confirm!

[Hundred Flowers Camp blueprint successfully consumed! Hundred Flowers Camp at Iron Wall Pass is now unlocked!]

[Hundred Flowers Battalion: A special forces battalion capable of training female special operations units.]

Currently trainable troop types: Hundred Flowers Guard (Light Cavalry), Hundred Flowers Archer (Archer), Hundred Flowers Assassin (Assassin), Hundred Flowers Medic (Medic)

Lin Mo stared blankly at the dense information on the system panel.

I love it!

This isn't just an all-female army, it's an all-female supergroup!

Light cavalry, archers, assassins... and even medics?!

An all-around talent, destined for instant success!

The most incredible thing is this "twin flowers blooming together"!

Isn't this the legendary power of best friends?

If enough people gather, the fighting power will skyrocket.

They made a killing! This was a windfall!

"Husband?"

A soft voice sounded in his ear, and Lin Mo came back to his senses.

Jiang Zhiwei was standing beside him, reaching out her fair little hand to gently tug at his sleeve, her always watery eyes filled with a hint of doubt.

Lin Mo then realized that Shangguan Yan and the others were still kneeling on the ground, making the scene quite awkward.

He quickly stepped forward and reached out to the women.

"Get up quickly, get up quickly, the ground is cold. You're all feeling better now, don't cause any more problems."

Shangguan Yan was also helped up by Lin Mo. She straightened her somewhat disheveled clothes and adopted a very humble posture.

"Lord Lin, we will return to Wanren Mountain immediately, pack our belongings, take stock of our men, and descend the mountain to join you!"

Lin Mo nodded, pondering how to turn this all-female group into his trump card.

"Alright, then I will return to Iron Wall Pass immediately to arrange your camp."

After saying that, Lin Mo turned around and was about to leave, eager to get started on infrastructure construction.

However, someone grabbed his sleeve again.

He looked down and saw Jiang Zhiwei tugging at his sleeve. Her eyes, which were usually glazed over, were now looking at him with unusual stubbornness.

Jiang Zhiwei didn't say anything, but just tugged at his sleeve.

But that look in his eyes... Lin Mo was a little confused.

What kind of look is that?

Feeling wronged? Resentful? And with a hint of...accusation?

Brother, what did I do?

I saved a bunch of people and was just about to go back to expand your medicinal herb garden. What's with that "Do you have another dog outside?" look on your face?

Lin Mo stood there, unsure whether to leave or stay.

He discovered for the first time that winning over a woman was much harder than winning over an army.

Just as the atmosphere reached a stalemate, Shangguan Yan, who was standing to the side, understood.

She glanced at Lin Mo, then at Jiang Zhiwei who was still clinging to him, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.

The humiliating experience on the carriage gave her a completely new understanding of this man.

He is not invincible; he can also feel awkward and at a loss.

This realization made her feel inexplicably close to it.

Shangguan Yan immediately stepped forward, clasped her hands in a fist salute to Lin Mo, and gave him a perfect way out.

"My benefactor, it is not something that can be accomplished in a day, but we have returned to the mountain to take stock of our manpower and organize our supplies."

"You and the Seventh Madam haven't seen each other for a long time, so you should... spend more time with her."

Shangguan Yan spoke with perfect ease, but a hint of mockery lingered in her clear eyes.

Lin Mo instantly understood. It turned out that Jiang Zhiwei was complaining that he only knew how to be wild outside and didn't spend more time with her.

Seeing Jiang Zhiwei's slightly resentful gaze, Lin Mo had no choice but to back down immediately.

"Well, you're right..."

"Then...then I won't rush back. I'll stay here and keep my wife company."

Upon hearing Lin Mo's words, Jiang Zhiwei's tense face immediately relaxed, and she let go of the sleeve she was holding.

She turned her head to Shangguan Yan, slowly gave her a thumbs up, and uttered two words.

"A good person."

Shangguan Yan smiled slightly at Jiang Zhiwei in response.

She immediately turned around and began directing her sisters to pack their things and return to Wanren Mountain.

With Lin Mo's permission, the doctors, who had been busy all day, each selected their favorite rare medicinal herbs.

Exhausted yet excited, they followed Shangguan Yan's group and embarked on the journey back to Tiebi Pass.

Soon, only Lin Mo and Jiang Zhiwei remained in the Hundred Herbs Garden.

Lin Mo originally wanted to massage Jiang Zhiwei's shoulders and praise her for her hard work today.

Before he could even finish speaking, Jiang Zhiwei grabbed his wrist and dragged him toward the bedroom without giving him a chance to explain.

"Quick, take a shower and go to bed."

Jiang Zhiwei spoke concisely.

Lin Mo was somewhat bewildered by her sudden action.

"It's only evening, and we haven't even had dinner yet. Why are you going to bed so soon?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhiwei turned her head, a hint of confusion in her clear eyes.

As if wondering why Lin Mo had misunderstood her meaning, Jiang Zhiwei added succinctly once again.

"Not that kind of sleeping, it's that... sleeping."
