    Jiang Yu rou walked in, you are all here, it seems that husband still has a bias!

    Mo Wenjie was confused, he said hurriedly: "Yu Rou, what do you mean by that? I treat everyone the same, how can there be any bias on my part?"

    Jiang Yu Rou said to him with a laugh, "Why is Xiao Yawen and Ding Yan earlier than me? You must have notified them in advance. This is not bias, what else could it be?"

    Mo Wenjie helplessly ran his fingers through his forehead, smiling and explaining, "Yu Rou, it's not like you think. Xiao Yawen and Ding Yan were already home when I came back this morning. I didn't notify them, you can ask Mei Lan Zhu Ju if you don't believe me." Jiang Yu Rou crossed her arms and tilted her head slightly, her eyes filled with suspicion: "Hmph, who knows if what you say is true. You need to compensate me." Mo Wenjie asked eagerly, "Okay, okay, how do you want me to compensate you?" Jiang Yu Rou thought for a moment and slyly said, "I heard there's a spiritual plant maturing on the outskirts of the city. Will you accompany me to pick it up?" Mo Wenjie looked troubled, "There are powerful beasts guarding that spiritual plant; it's quite dangerous." Jiang Yu Rou stepped forward and pulled his arm in a playful pout, "I don't care. After all, it's because of your bias that I misunderstood you. With your strength, surely you can protect me." Mo Wenjie couldn't resist her and had no choice but to nod in agreement. Jiang Yu Rou finally released her grip with satisfaction, her face lit up with a victorious smile. Nearby, Xiao Yawen and Ding Yan couldn't help but laugh as they teased Mo Wenjie for being completely under Jiang Yu Rou's control.

    "You can't accompany her, I just got here, and you're leaving already. What does that mean?" Tuo Bai Ying Ying said!

    Mo Wenjie heard what Tuo Bai Ying Ying said, he covered his forehead and couldn't say anything!

    Jiang Yu Rou was not pleased at all. "Tuo Bai Yingying, do you want to pick a fight? Then why don't we settle this with a show of strength!"

    Jiang Yu Rou was not pleased. Tuo Bai Ying Ying, do you want to cause trouble? How about we have a sparring match!

    Jiang Yu Rou huffed, "What am I supposed to do then? I can't just give in." At that moment, Xiao Yawen, who had not spoken until now, said, "Why don't we go together to the outskirts of the city? More people mean more strength. We can protect Yu Rou and get the spiritual plant, and it also counts as Mo Dae-jun fulfilling his promise to Ying Ying. It's a win-win situation." Everyone heard this and thought it was a good idea. Mo Wenjie nodded first, "Alright, let's do that." Jiang Yu Rou and Tuo Bai Ying Ying exchanged a look, still feeling awkward but accepting the plan. So they set off towards the outskirts of the city, discussing strategies to deal with the beasts along the way.

    Mo Wenjie led six beautiful women to the outskirts of the city to search for the spiritual plant. Now it was quite a scene, as they said that three women make a play. It was definitely two plays! Mo Wenjie was driven crazy by their noise, and he wanted to plug his ears. However, he couldn't do it openly, as he might be discovered by them. If they found out, things would get out of hand!

    As the bickering continued, Mo Wenjie suddenly tightened his expression and signaled everyone to be quiet. "There is a spiritual energy fluctuation ahead. There may be a spiritual plant emerging or a demon beast appearing." The women immediately fell silent and their eyes grew alert.

    Mo Wenjie cautiously investigated ahead and saw a spiritual plant with a dim blue glow amidst the grass. Before the others could express their joy, a massive wyvern leaped out, staring at them menacingly.

    Mo Wenjie positioned the six beautiful women behind him, ready to face the challenge. However, Tuo Bai Ying Ying rushed forward without considering the danger, casting a spell on the wyvern. The wyvern easily dodged it and lunged towards Tuo Bai Ying Ying. Just as they were about to be attacked, Jiang Yu Rou came to her rescue and struck the wyvern with a flash of spiritual energy on its side.

    Mo Wenjie seized the opportunity to unleash a powerful attack to capture the wyvern. Xiao Yawen swiftly ran over to harvest the spiritual plant. The other women also quickly cast spells to reinforce the seal holding the wyvern. In the end, Xiao Yawen successfully harvested the spiritual plant, and Mo Wenjie completely eradicated the wyvern.

    After this incident, Jiang Yu Rou and Tuo Bai Ying Ying smiled at each other, resolving their conflict. Mo Wenjie let out a sigh of relief, thinking that their trip to the outskirts of the city had indeed been fruitful, and that the girls seemed to have grown closer as a group.

    Jiang Yu Rou looked at Mo Wenjie and said, "Husband, we've already been engaged to each other, but what about Huang Ling'er and Qin Xiao Di? You want to take them in, but we won't object. However, we have already been engaged to you. Huang Ling'er may be a county princess, but she doesn't have as long a connection with us as we do. So even if she is a county princess, she must be our younger sister!"

    Mo Wenjie scratched his head in confusion and said, "Yu Rou, you misunderstood. I am bound to Huang Ling'er for three lifetimes. My acquaintance with Qin Xiao Di was by chance and not at all a personal desire." Jiang Yu Rou huffed, "Husband, can your words be trusted? Qin Xiao Di looks at you with a very intense gaze." Mo Wenjie sighed bitterly, "I can't control her thoughts, but my heart belongs only to you." At this moment, Huang Ling'er and Qin Xiao Di approached. Huang Ling'er heard their conversation and blushed slightly while still maintaining her stubbornness: "Mo Wenjie is the engagement agreement between this county's principal lady and you for three lifetimes. Do you dare to go back on your promise?" Qin Xiao Di also chimed in: "That's right. I'm not trying to ruin your relationship." Mo Wenjie bowed in gratitude. At that very moment, the sky suddenly darkened, and a sinister atmosphere spread throughout the area. Mo Wenjie frowned and said with concern, "This is bad. There is an evil practitioner who has set up an array here to steal the spiritual plant we just obtained." Everyone immediately grew tense and formed a circle around themselves with Mo Wenjie standing at the forefront holding his treasure weapon and ready for battle. "Whoever wants to take away the spiritual plant must first get past me!" Mo Wenjie said resolutely with a determined look in his eyes.

    Jiang Yu Rou looked into the distance. "Husband, even if the other side is as powerful as they are, we have seven of us. Besides, you are at the first realm and unparalleled. What should we be afraid of? I think we can defeat any opponent. It's only if immortals want to cause trouble for us!"

    Mo Wenjie listened to Jiang Yu Rou's words and felt slightly relieved. However, the sinister atmosphere grew increasingly intense. Suddenly, a dark shadow emerged from the darkness, speeding towards Jiang Yu Rou who was holding the spiritual plant. Mo Wenjie shouted and threw his treasure weapon, casting a beam of light to block the attack. The shadow revealed its form, revealing an evil practitioner with a fierce countenance. "With just a few of you, do you think you can keep hold of the spiritual plant?" the evil practitioner sneered coldly. Mo Wenjie retorted coldly: "Why not? Today I will not let you succeed." The evil practitioner clasped his hands and summoned countless ghosts around them attacking everyone. Everyone hurriedly cast spells to fend off the attacks. Qin Xiao Di, despite her weaker cultivation level, gritted her teeth and held on. Huang Ling'er shouted: "Everyone together attack his array core! Destroy this array!" Realizing this, they attacked in unison with Mo Wenjie unleashing his strongest strike causing bursts of light to shine brightly. The evil practitioner hadn't expected them to be so united and looked panicked on his face as he was heavily injured from their joint effort before escaping after giving everyone a fierce glance with disdain in his eyes. Mo Wenjie sighed in relief before turning around at look at the women beside him with gratitude swelling in his heart: "Thanks to all of you today we were able to save the spiritual plant." The women exchanged glances and smiled together in joyous agreement. The above text is a translation of the provided Chinese passage into English.

    Jiang Yu Rou was particularly satisfied with everyone's performance. "Since we are all his consorts, we must stand together. Today's performance has been very satisfying to me. I've decided that we should all absorb the spiritual essence of the plant together!"

    As everyone heard Jiang Yu Rou's words, they all showed delight. It was well known that the spiritual plant they had just obtained contained extremely dense spiritual essence. If they all absorbed it together, it would greatly benefit everyone's cultivation.

    So, the group sat in a circle around the spiritual plant, which was placed in the middle. Jiang Yu Rou took the lead by activating her cultivation technique to guide the spiritual essence. The others followed suit. Soon, streams of colorful light began to rise from the spiritual plant and gradually merge with their bodies.

    Just at that moment, the sky suddenly turned dark with clouds and winds, and a lightning strike descended from the sky. It turned out that this spiritual plant was a celestial treasure, and the simultaneous absorption of its spiritual essence by multiple people had attracted divine punishment. Mo Wenjie shouted, "Don't panic, everyone! Let's work together to withstand the lightning strike." The group quickly adjusted their states and used various methods to combat the lightning strike.

    Mo Wenjie waved his defense treasure and created a protective barrier; Qin Xiao Di strengthened the barrier with her own spiritual power; while Jiang Yu Rou led the other women to perform magic to counter the electrical forces of the lightning strike. After a fierce struggle, they finally managed to withstand the lightning strike. Following this battle, not only did everyone's cultivation increase significantly, but their feelings also became deeper. They knew that as long as they were united, they could overcome any difficulties in the future.

    Xiao Yawen took the initiative to strike at the lightning strike!

    Tuo Bai Ying Ying did not want to lag behind, and the rest of the group also threw their hands forward.

    Mo Wenjie couldn't afford to retreat. He led the way, forming a seal with his hands and reciting incantations, and attacking the lightning strike!

    However, the power of the lightning strike far exceeded everyone's imagination. Despite their best efforts, they could barely make a dent in it. As time went on, the group began to feel exhausted. Mo Wenjie was in a state of panic. Suddenly, his eyes lit up with inspiration and he came up with a risky plan.

    Mo Wenjie shouted, "Everyone, concentrate your power on me!" The others, though puzzled, did not hesitate and followed his instructions. Mo Wenjie's body burst into a dazzling light as he charged towards the lightning strike. As he approached the core of the lightning strike, he forcibly opened a spatial rift, trying to channel the lightning strike into it.

    The lightning strike seemed to have a sense of intelligence, fiercely resisting. Mo Wenjie gritted his teeth and used all his remaining strength to finally guide part of the lightning strike into the rift. The remaining lightning strike's power was greatly reduced, and the group saw this situation and boosted their morale, launching their strongest attack together.

    Only after a massive rumble that shook the heavens and earth did the lightning strike dissipate. Exhausted, the group collapsed on the ground, but their eyes met with smiles of relief. Having overcome this challenge together, they were even more determined to continue their journey through the bustling urban Daoist world, filled with dangers and opportunities, hand in hand.
