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

Yu Ji swiftly tore off the tattered black veil.

A vast expanse of dazzling white was displayed before Lin Mo's eyes without reservation.

Now, in front of Lin Mo, Yu Ji had long since thrown all restraint and shame to the winds.

She even deliberately puffed out her chest to show off her impressive assets.

Then, she opened her storage ring, and with a faint glow, a very light purple gauze dress appeared out of thin air in her hand.

Yu Ji gave Lin Mo a charming smile and, in front of him, slowly put on the gauze dress.

The thin purple gauze partially concealed her proud breasts and slender waist, barely covering them.

The deep cleavage and long, fair legs were faintly visible through the hem of her skirt, adding an even more alluring and captivating charm than before.

She deliberately swayed her waist and moved closer to Lin Mo, turning around in a coquettish manner.

"Master, does Yu Ji look good in this outfit?"

"Let's go."

Lin Mo resisted the urge to start another game and stepped out of the cave.

Yu Ji giggled and followed closely behind, barefoot.

The golden bell on her right ankle made a clear, ringing sound.

Ding-dong.

Lin Mo strode out of the cave.

Yu Ji followed closely behind him like a well-behaved young wife.

Outside the cave.

The storm continues to rage.

The dark clouds above Broken Soul Valley hung extremely low.

Lin Mo stood at the cave entrance.

Looking at the torrential rain.

The dark golden true essence within his body suddenly erupted.

boom!

A violent shockwave emanated from him and swept outwards in all directions.

The raindrops fell from the sky, three feet away from his body.

It was instantly evaporated into a cloud of white mist by the terrifying high temperature of true essence.

Lin Mo touched the ground with his toes.

His entire body transformed into a dark golden streak of light, soaring into the sky.

Heading straight towards Zhenbeicheng.

Yu Ji followed closely behind.

Purple true essence enveloped his entire body, transforming into a long rainbow that closely followed Lin Mo.

boom!

The front courtyard of Zhenbei Mansion.

Amidst the torrential rain, a streak of dark golden light crashed onto the bluestone slab like a meteorite falling to earth.

Water splashed and stones flew everywhere.

The gale whipped up the rain and spread wildly in all directions, carving out a vacuum zone in the dense rain curtain.

Immediately afterwards, another purple streak of light floated down and stopped behind the dark gold streak of light.

Just as Fengniang drew her dagger and led her group of guards into the courtyard, she was confronted by this earth-shattering scene.

The guards instantly drew their swords, the blades flashing in a continuous barrage.

The light dissipated.

Lin Mo patted the moisture off his body and shook his hair.

"Put away your knives! We're on the same side!"

He shouted at the top of his lungs.

The front yard was deathly silent for a second.

The next second, it exploded.

boom!

"My husband!"

The front door to the lobby was pushed open instantly.

Su Qingyue lifted her skirt, didn't even open an umbrella, and rushed straight into the rain, burying her face in Lin Mo's arms.

"Husband, where have you been? We've been looking for you for two days and two nights, we were terrified!"

Qingyue's eyes were red and swollen. She punched Lin Mo's chest twice with her fists, and tears mixed with the rain fell down her face.

Immediately afterwards, a large group of people poured out of the front hall.

Liu Yiyi, Gu Meng'er, Feng Niang, Bai Zhi, Shen Qinghe...

All the women who remained in the mansion ran out.

"My husband! You're finally back!"

Shen Qinghe was so anxious that she stamped her feet, clutching a stack of newly written missing person notices in her hand.

"Where did you go?"

"These past two days, I've had my secret guards turn the city inside and out completely, even scooping up the moat three times!"

"If you don't come back soon, I'm going to dig up the entire town of Zhenbei!"

Feng Niang stepped forward, looked Lin Mo up and down, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that he was not missing any limbs.

"Are you alright? Are you hurt?"

Jiang Zhiwei squeezed in as well, placing her small, icy hands on his pulse.

"Waaah... I thought my husband didn't want us anymore..."

Gu Meng'er stood not far away, her eyes red and tears welling up in her eyes.

"Alright, my husband is back safe and sound, isn't he?"

Bai Zhi gently patted Gu Meng'er's back to comfort her.

"But, my husband, where have you been these past two days?"

Bai Zhi raised her head and looked Lin Mo up and down.

Lin Mo turned his head and met Bai Zhi's questioning gaze, causing his heart to skip a beat.

It's over, what was bound to happen has finally happened.

Lin Mo's brain raced as he tried to fabricate a perfect alibi.

"Um... let me explain... no, let me explain."

"I actually went to the deep mountains outside the city for secluded cultivation, and also to comprehend the great principles of heaven and earth..."

Lin Mo was talking nonsense with a straight face.

"You understand what 'sudden enlightenment' means? It's that state where you suddenly enter a sage mode and forget about the passage of time."

Liu Yiyi walked over with graceful steps, holding a paper umbrella.

She held the umbrella over Lin Mo's head to shield him from the rain.

"Alright, stop making things up."

She interrupted Lin Mo's spellcasting, her expression grave.

"Something terrible has happened."

Lin Mo was taken aback upon hearing this.

"Something big? What's so big?"

He dropped his joking expression and unconsciously glanced around at everyone.

Only then did they realize that several familiar figures were missing.

"Where's Ruxue? Where did Man'er and Ling'er go?"

"Heading to Heishui Pass."

Liu Yiyi replied with a heavy expression.

"Blackwater Pass?"

Lin Mo's heart sank, and he immediately realized that the situation was not good.

"In the two days you were away, Xia Jie led an army of a million men and crossed the Luo River, his forces heading straight for the Blackwater Pass."

"He used the old emperor's tiger tally and mobilized the Central Plains Imperial Guard and local troops. He is going all out to flatten our northern border."

Liu Yiyi spoke very quickly, giving a concise report on the current situation.

"Second Sister led the Xuanjia Army, Zhenbei Heavy Cavalry, and Hanshan Army to Heishui Pass overnight to provide reinforcements, while Mengyao was coordinating logistics and supplies."

Lin Mo raised an eyebrow.

A million-strong army?

Is he planning to fight himself to the death?

But before he could even speak...

Yu Ji, who had been standing silently behind him, suddenly let out a low, puzzled gasp.

"That third prince?"

Yu Ji blurted out.

Xia Jie?

That good-for-nothing who's been hollowed out by wine and women?

At that time at Changsheng Temple, I only used less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

Inhale remotely.

They completely drained the meager amount of true dragon energy from his body.

That piece of trash should have turned into a dried-up corpse long ago.

How can he command an army of millions?

Has it come back to life?

Could there be some heaven-defying resurrection technique in this mortal world?

Yu Ji stood behind Lin Mo, her purple eyes filled with confusion.

The air suddenly became quiet.

The sound of raindrops hitting the bluestone slabs became exceptionally clear.

All eyes turned past Lin Mo and fixed on Yu Ji.

Just now, everyone was so worried about Lin Mo, plus the rain made visibility blurry.

They didn't even notice that Lin Mo had brought back a living, breathing person behind him.

And she was a woman.

A woman who is stunningly beautiful, yet dressed in a scandalous manner!

The new gauze dress that Yu Ji was wearing was made of very little fabric.

The light purple gauze partially concealed her figure, and the side of the skirt was slit all the way up to her thigh.

Two long, dazzlingly white legs were exposed to the air without reservation.

A golden bell was hanging on her right ankle.

Yu Ji moved slightly.

Ding-dong.

The bell rang with an extremely clear and crisp sound.

Look up further.

The purple gauze neckline was wide open, and the fabric could hardly contain her astonishing fullness.

Large patches of her fair skin still shone brightly in the rainy night, with even a few suspicious red marks on it.

Coupled with that aloof and stunningly beautiful face, yet possessing an innate allure, and those shimmering purple eyes.

This is no respectable woman!

This is clearly a demon who just escaped from the Spider Cave and will devour any man she wants!
