Urban Super Medical Saint-Chapter 686 - 685: Seeking a Visit [First Update, Request for Votes]

Baiyun Mountain, halfway up the slopes, a Taoist temple devoted to Ren Yao now boasts an ancient-style villa.

In the villa's grassy courtyard, Yang Yinhou sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, the mountain breeze ruffling his white beard and hair, making him seem like an old immortal.

"I can feel the desolation of winter, but I can't comprehend the intrinsic principle of conservation and encapsulation you're talking about," Yang Yinhou said, opening his eyes after a long while.

"Why is that? I just hadn't thought about it before, but once I did, I just needed to calm my mind to easily sense that principle, and then change the True Qi and Qi-Blood in my body accordingly," Ge Dongxu said, puzzled.

Confident that he had grasped the threshold of winter's conservation, Ge Dongxu had specially rushed back to share this with Yang Yinhou, hoping to further advance his cultivation, but it now seemed that things were not as simple as he had imagined.

"There's nothing strange about that. Everyone has a different affinity with nature's spiritual energy and the principles of the world. Moreover, your cultivation is much higher than your brother's, so you can sense the subtle changes that directly touch the essence of nature. I'm not that sensitive. However, with the insight you've shared, I just need to dedicate time every day to feel it, and eventually, I will grasp that essential principle," Yang Yinhou said with a smile, stroking his beard, showing no disappointment. Instead, his gaze towards Ge Dongxu was full of delight.

"It's a pity! You must take some time to sense it in the future. I can feel that, although my body looks weaker than before, the life force within is more vigorous. So, if you can comprehend the mysteries of spring's birth, summer's growth, autumn's harvest, and winter's preservation, your lifespan will surely increase," Ge Dongxu said regretfully.

At the same time, Ge Dongxu understood that his ability to sense the principle that directly touches the nature of the world so easily was probably not just due to his talent and higher cultivation compared to Yang Yinhou, but more importantly, his chance occurrence of Unity of Heaven and Man, which had granted him a much closer connection to the world than most people.

"Haha, don't worry, I value this life even more than you do!" Yang Yinhou laughed.

Ge Dongxu scratched his head with a laugh, then said, "Since that's the case, I'll head home to see my parents first. I have to rush back to the Provincial Capital tonight."

"Go ahead. I see your parents often enough, I won't join in on the family reunion this time," Yang Yinhou said with a laugh.

"I'll have to ask you to take some time to look after and guide my parents," Ge Dongxu said, bowing slightly to Yang Yinhou before floating down the mountain.

Ge Dongxu originally had modest hopes for his parents embarking on the path of cultivation; he just wished they could live a happy and peaceful life to a ripe old age. But as Ge Dongxu's own cultivation steadily surpassed that of his master, and even the legendary Dragon Tiger Realm seemed within reach, reaching that level would not only allow him to use Dual Cultivation to improve the constitutions of his loved ones like Liu Jiayao, but also, if he could find some legendary Heaven and Earth Treasures, he might be able to refine elixirs that could change one's constitution. Thus, even though Ge Dongxu's parents were getting on in years, the possibility of them embarking on the path of cultivation wasn't out of reach.

For this reason, after Ge Dongxu broke through to the Eighth Layer of Qi Cultivation, he began insisting his parents adhere to simple cultivation practices, with the task of guidance naturally falling to Yang Yinhou.

After visiting his parents and dining with them, Ge Dongxu drove through the night to return to the Provincial Capital because the next day, besides attending his own classes, he also needed to guide the medical practitioners in the Department of Internal Medicine.

Aside from that, he also needed to squeeze in time to visit the flower base near Qian River, choose a location with the most beautiful scenery, and then cast the spell of "Gathering Clouds and Falling Rain", pulling together the water's spirit energy of the Qian River and the surrounding wood's spirit energy to descend onto the piece of land he had selected.

Days passed, one by one.

Every day, when darkness fell, Ge Dongxu would go to the flower base by the Qian River to cast spells.

Gradually, the flower garden began to grow lush and verdant, not only sprouting tender green leaves but also buds that had unknowingly emerged from the branches, waiting to bloom.

After classes on Friday morning, Ge Dongxu did not go to the department of internal medicine but instead went to Qinglan Cosmetics Company.

Because today, Gu Yezeng, a bigwig in the Chinese circle, and his family were coming.

Although Ge Dongxu's seniority was higher than Gu Yezeng's, as the saying goes, a distant guest is a god, and Yu Xin had especially come to shoot the Flower Spirit. Therefore, as the owner and landlord, it was only right and proper that Ge Dongxu would accompany Liu Jiayao to pick them up from the airport.

"Ms. Liu, I am truly sincere about cooperating with you. Look, for this cooperation, I've specially invited two of my good friends from Lincheng. This one is the son of Deputy Director Yang of the Provincial Health Department, who oversees the coordination and supervision of cosmetics, Yang Zhonghui. And this is Mr. Zheng Qingli, Zheng Zijie's uncle. You might not know Zheng Qingli, but you should know his uncle; he's the Deputy Governor of Jiangnan Province and the head of the Public Security Department, Mr. Zheng Zijie. What do you say, Ms. Liu, can you give me some face? Let's have lunch together at noon and talk over the cooperation," Park Yu-ji said to Liu Jiayao with a smile in his office at Qinglan Cosmetics Company.

"Yes, Ms. Liu, Chairman Park is really earnest about wanting to cooperate with Qinglan Cosmetics. Hesi Cosmetics Company is a subsidiary of Xianxing Group, which is among the top five hundred companies in the world. They have not only strong capital but are also leaders in scientific research management technology, far ahead of the existing cosmetics companies in our country. If your Qinglan Cosmetics Company cooperates with Hesi Cosmetics Company, you will not only transform into a Sino-foreign joint venture and enjoy many policy advantages, but you will also be better able to absorb foreign investment and their advanced technology and management philosophy. So, Ms. Liu, I think cooperating with Chairman Park is all gain and no harm," Yang Zhonghui followed, nodding his head persuasively.

Liu Jiayao's brows furrowed upon hearing this, and anger began to rise in her heart.

Having weathered many years in the business world, she could clearly see that Park Yu-ji's bringing the son of the Deputy Director and the nephew of the Deputy Governor was a show of force and intimidation!

And Yang Zhonghui's words, which seemed to consider Qinglan Cosmetics' interests at every turn, were obviously influenced by some benefit he had received from Park Yu-ji, leveraging his father's position to pressure her into cooperating with Hesi Cosmetics Company.

"Mr. Yang, thank you for your kindness. However, Qinglan Cosmetics currently does not lack funds, and we have achieved a new breakthrough in terms of technology recently, so there is no need for cooperation with other companies." However, Yang Zhonghui was after all the son of the Deputy Director of the Provincial Health Department who was responsible for cosmetics, and even if Liu Jiayao was annoyed, she did not want to burn bridges completely, so she ultimately suppressed her anger and replied with dignity and composure.
