Immediately, a merger and restructuring agreement was signed, and my company, Shengming Pharmaceutical, came into being under such circumstances. Gao Liang, as the Chairman of the Board, held supreme authority, while George and Lane, though serving as managers, were in reality working diligently for Gao Liang. American executives were serving outstanding Chinese men from our homeland with unwavering loyalty and dedication—something rare in the United States. This clearly demonstrates the strength of our protagonist. Of course, behind Gao Liang there are several key female supporters: Ying'er, Zhang Yuping, Chen Yuting, and Xuebi. Immediately, the Golden Light Messenger descended to earth on a resplendent, multicolored cloud from the Heavenly Palace. Ying was in an open, well-lit office on the 68th floor of Jinmao Tower, the branch of Long-Feng Hall in San Francisco, diligently organizing some documents for Long-Feng Hall. She had been busy all morning and was now ready for lunch. As she prepared to leave her desk, a Taoist monk with silvering hair, holding a broom, appeared—none other than the Golden Light Messenger. "Righteous Lady! I have been sent by the Heavenly Emperor to deliver the imperial decree—please receive it!" Ying immediately knelt on the floor. The Golden Light Messenger unfurled a yellow imperial decree, unrolled it, and read: "The Heavenly Emperor deeply cares about the matter of the Imperial Seal. He requests that the Protective Righteous Deity and the Righteous Lady work in close cooperation to swiftly locate a suitable gemstone for crafting the Seal." "Thank you, Your Majesty!" Ying accepted the decree. The Golden Light Messenger nodded and added, "Do your best—do not let the Heavenly Emperor down!" Ying'er rolled up the imperial decree. At that moment, Gao Liang and Zhang Yупing arrived, having just returned from the Victoria Mall in San Francisco, their arms full of bags and parcels, making Gao Liang gasp for breath. Zhang Yупing, on the other hand, looked extremely satisfied. Ying'er was deeply concerned. After all, according to the heavenly calendar, only two days had passed—despite the significant difference between the time flows of the mortal realm and the divine realm, where one day in heaven equals one year on earth. However, due to the cyclical nature of time, heavenly time itself was also shifting. Moreover, finding the gemstone suitable for crafting the jade seal was no easy task. In the vast universe, across the cosmos, there were only a few treasures worthy of the Heavenly Emperor's appreciation. If such a gem could not be found in heaven, it had to be sought out on earth—demonstrating both the difficulty and the weight of the mission. Gao Liang fastened a necklace of the Heart of the Angel onto Ying'er's neck, its purity as bright and smooth as jade, and at the same time draped a heart-shaped platinum diamond necklace around Zhang Yuping's neck. Instantly, the two beautiful women shone with radiant grace, more delicate and enchanting than ever. Gao Liang watched them, his heart soaring with joy. Yet, he noticed Ying'er's brows furrowed and immediately asked, "Ying'er! What's wrong?" Ying'er stammered, hesitating. At that moment, Zhang Yuping, with her keen attention, immediately spotted the yellow silk cloth and picked it up. Ying'er said, "Give it back to me!" But Zhang Yuping, this clever one, insisted on seeing it, hiding behind Gao Liang. Ying'er chased after her, and Zhang Yuping circled her husband, the two beautiful women darting around Gao Liang like they were playing hide-and-seek. "Click!" The yellow silk cloth spread out on the ground. Naturally, Gao Liang and Zhang Yuping saw what was inside. Gao Liang and Ying'er were deities from the Celestial Palace—how could Zhang Yuping have possibly seen the Heavenly Emperor’s imperial decree? Yet, she had seen it all. With sparkling eyes, Zhang Yuping gazed at this outstanding man before her, then turned her sparkling eyes to Ying'er, as if she didn’t recognize her at all, scrutinizing him from head to toe. Finally, she turned to Gao Liang and asked, “Gao Liang! Are you truly the guardian deity of the heavenly realm?” Gao Liang, pretending not to know, replied, “Ping'er! Don’t be mistaken—this is merely an artwork! It’s one of my personal collections. I’m no more than a mortal, with only a bit of special abilities and martial prowess!” Though his face remained calm and composed, Ying'er, despite possessing thousands of years of spiritual energy, was mentally outmatched by Gao Liang. Zhang Yuping noticed the subtle shift in Ying'er’s expression and gaze, and immediately pulled at her sleeve, asking, “Ying sister! Tell me through your eyes! Are you indeed the true guardian deity? Are you married to Gao Liang?” "Zhang Yuping asked again, 'You've all been hiding this from me! Gao Liang! You've deceived me! Why didn't you tell me about your marriage to Yingjie?' 'Yes! I admit it!' Gao Liang knew he couldn't hide it anymore. At this moment, Zhang Yuping couldn't accept the reality before her and hurried off several times. Gao Liang didn't chase after her. Eventually, he would have to face all the people he loved about his own story with Yingjie. 'Master! I've calculated it! We don't have much time—we must quickly find the gemstone suitable for the Seal of the Heavenly Palace. However, in recent days, we've collected many precious jewels from the mortal world, but none of them meet the requirements for the Seal of the Heavenly Palace. They're all ordinary—some even fakes!' Yingjie said, growing increasingly anxious. 'Yingjie! Let's work together on this. Even though we've returned from the Heavenly Palace and have done several tasks unrelated to finding the gemstone, I've been quietly studying the qualities a gemstone must possess to be suitable for the Seal of the Heavens. Here are my After speaking, Gao Liang quickly opened his super portable computer. Ying'er noticed that Gao Liang had already compiled images of various true qi gemstones, even some national treasure-level exhibits. Ying'er blew a breath of spiritual energy at these treasures and shook her head. After viewing the 16,800th image, when she blew energy at one particular object, she noticed the object gently trembled on the screen. "It's it! It's it! Wonderful! Husband! We found it! We found it!" Ying'er exclaimed joyfully. Yet Gao Liang sighed and said, "Ying'er, these are images I've collected myself. The actual physical artifact—look at the line below—it has already been lost." Ying'er looked down and was stunned. The object had indeed vanished long ago, dating back to the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods of ancient China, as far back as the time before our current era. Now, it was 2011. How could they possibly search for something that had already disappeared? Ying'er felt at a loss. "Wife! Let's go through the time gates! The miraculous time-travel remote we've been using for so long—how long has it been since we last used it? Qin, Han, Three Kingdoms, Jin, Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, Qing! I can travel through any era you'd like!" Gao Liang pulled out the extraordinary time-travel remote from his waist. But upon closer inspection, he noticed that the remote only listed the Qin Dynasty, with no mention of the Spring and Autumn or Warring States periods. Damn it—so this miraculous remote seems capable of time travel only up to the Qin Dynasty. Gao Liang felt a bit disheartened. Ying'er, whose spiritual energy surpassed his own, smiled brightly and said, "Husband! If your ability were one level higher, you could travel back even before the Qin Dynasty!" "Heh! That's great! Then this time, let's go right to the Qin Dynasty!" Gao Liang reached for Ying'er's hand. At the "Jade Apex" on the highest level of Jinmao Tower, Gao Liang concentrates his spirit and calms his breath, focusing his spirit in the Purple Palace and gathering his vital energy at the Dan Tian, engaging in the absorption and transformation of energy—something he hasn't done for a long time. The oxygen atoms, negative ions, and other elements in the air are now being absorbed and utilized by him. Even certain subtle, fragrant essences in the atmosphere have been taken in. All the elements of nature are being fully absorbed into Gao Liang’s body. He now freely commands the elements of nature—wind, rain, thunder, lightning, and light. Currently, he is deeply absorbing the material elements present in nature. For instance, the scents of various flowers, as well as the body fragrance of a particular beautiful woman, have all been absorbed into his body. At some point in the future, these elements will prove useful. The training for the refinement of spiritual energy had nearly concluded when high-level cultivation of mental strength began again—this time, guided by Ying'er's instructions. Ying'er demonstrated her transformation techniques, which was the first time she had showcased them before Gao Liang, shifting into various forms: beautiful women, young girls, mature women, executives, queens, young wives, and even angels. Gao Liang could only watch, absolutely unable to shift his mental focus. Any movement of intent would cause the balance measuring his spiritual energy to tilt. Initially, Gao Liang managed to maintain composure, but after enduring for half an hour, when Ying'er suddenly grew affectionate, gently beckoned to him with her fingers, and performed increasingly intimate gestures, the balance began to tremble.
