Jiang Che had long been prepared for this moment.
Three fully automated alchemy furnaces, capable of producing at least 36 tons of low-grade elixirs in a single batch.
Though these were low-grade elixirs, their sheer quantity was staggering.
With 36 tons, assuming each pill weighed between 3 to 10 grams, that amounted to millions in one go!
Of course, such a quantity might not be enough for the entire Dragon Nation’s population of over a billion, but scarcity drives value.
Still, the three fully automated furnaces were more than sufficient.
"Feifei, I have three fully automated alchemy furnaces here, capable of producing millions of pills in one batch. Running them at full capacity, we can refine four or five batches a day. We’ll buy up more land... I’ll convert it all into low-grade spiritual fields and plant medicinal herbs..."
Jiang Che began outlining his plans to Ji Ningxue and Gu Lingfei.
After all, they were his women, and he had his own selfish motives—when the tide of spiritual resurgence arrived, his women couldn’t be left as ordinary.
"Alright, Xiao Che, we’ll follow your lead," Gu Lingfei nodded first.
She didn’t understand elixirs or spiritual fields, nor could she fully grasp Jiang Che’s grand schemes.
But she chose to support him unconditionally. Whatever Xiao Che decided to do, she wouldn’t question it.
"Feifei, I’ll have Leng Ningqiu restructure Yuanche Pharmaceutical into an alchemy-focused company. My Qiangsheng Group will also be repurposed into an auction house, dealing in rare treasures..."
"Your company originally specialized in beauty products, so it can be integrated under Yuanche Pharmaceutical, dedicated to refining and selling beauty elixirs like Youth Preservation Pills, Beauty Pills, and Curvature Enhancers..."
"As for Ningning, your company can pivot to artifact forging! I also have fully automated furnace equipment for crafting magical tools. Just input the raw materials, and it can mass-produce enchanted artifacts."
[Fully Automated Artifact Forging Furnace (Yellow Tier): Equipped with six complete production lines, automated engraving of arrays, inscription of runes, and molding... Capable of large-scale production of Yellow Tier artifacts...]
[Price per production line: 3 million points.]
Jiang Che waved his hand and bought ten of them outright!
He would monopolize the global cultivation resources, forcing all cultivators on Earth to work for him.
"Fine~ We’ll do as you say," Ji Ningxue relented.
Like Gu Lingfei, she didn’t fully comprehend Jiang Che’s plans, but she was willing to take the risk for him.
Seeing both Ji Ningxue and Gu Lingfei agree, Jiang Che’s lips curled into a smirk. What man could resist women like this?
Cold, elegant, and powerful CEOs, yet utterly devoted to him.
To have even one would be a blessing from a past life, let alone several!
"Xiao Che, what are you smiling about?" Gu Lingfei tilted her head in confusion.
"Haha, nothing. I was just thinking... I must have saved the entire universe in my past life to deserve you two!" Jiang Che wrapped his arms around their slender waists.
"Hmm? Why your past life?" Ji Ningxue raised an eyebrow.
"Uh..." Jiang Che hesitated. How could he tell them he’d been a playboy in his previous life?
"Darling, because my past life was spent searching for you. Thankfully... I found you in this one!"
Damn, nothing could stump Jiang Che!
Logically, such cheesy lines shouldn’t work on two seasoned CEOs. Women like Ji Ningxue and Gu Lingfei had seen it all—their past suitors were countless.
Yet, they ate it up when it came from Jiang Che.
So, some seemingly aloof women... might not be cold to everyone. Maybe just to you.
"Tch, you little rascal, all you have is a sweet tongue!" Gu Lingfei rolled her eyes.
"Ha! My mouth isn’t just sweet—it’s slick, silver-tongued, and downright devilish!"
Jiang Che’s grin was so infuriating the women almost hit him.
......
Jiang Che stayed by Ji Ningxue and Gu Lingfei’s side, practically guiding them step-by-step on how to reform their companies for the path of cultivation.
"Let me introduce you to my little secretary... Leng Ningqiu, Qiu’er!"
At Yuanche Pharmaceutical, a stunning woman in a black suit, sky-high heels, and silver-rimmed glasses approached them.
Ji Ningxue and Gu Lingfei’s gazes sharpened. They knew Leng Ningqiu well—dubbed the "Fox of the Business World," she was cunning and ruthless, outmaneuvering even seasoned veterans.
"Hello, I’m Qiu’er, Master’s little secretary and... little lover!"
Leng Ningqiu smiled sweetly, her fox-like eyes glinting with mischief. In an instant, her icy CEO facade shattered, transforming into a seductive vixen in a heartbeat!
Ji Ningxue and Gu Lingfei: "..."
Holy hell, a formidable rival! Where did Jiang Che even find her?
"Alright, no jealousy. Qiu’er isn’t even jealous of you two!"
They say three women make a drama, but Jiang Che felt it wasn’t so bad. With three CEOs gathered, the expected battlefield of emotions never materialized.
"Qiu’er, I’ve already notified the Jiang family in the capital. Old Man Jiang is now the head of the Dragon Nation’s Cultivator Association. He’ll handle any official hurdles for the company’s transformation. You just focus on production."
A cultivation-focused company in the Dragon Nation would inevitably face challenges, but that didn’t matter.
Let Old Man Jiang deal with the headaches—they’d focus on making money.
"Master, I’ve purchased over 1,200 acres of land in the southern outskirts and spent 110 million to secure a mountain resort..." Leng Ningqiu reported.
"1,200 acres... roughly 800,000 square meters. Low-grade spiritual fields cost 1 point per square meter, so 800,000 points should cover it. But is 1,200 acres enough?"
Jiang Che rubbed his chin.
Low-grade fields had slower maturation rates—some herbs might take a week to grow. He’d test the waters first. If results were promising, he’d expand tenfold, even a hundredfold!
......
Jiang Che overhauled the entire company with sweeping reforms.
The board of directors at Yuanche Pharmaceutical nearly had a collective heart attack upon hearing the young chairman’s plans. Even the old guard left by Jiang Yuan were stunned.
"Young Master Jiang, this won’t do! Yuanche Pharmaceutical is Chairman Jiang’s life’s work. Reforming it like this... you’ll ruin the company!" An elder pleaded, voice trembling.
"Xiao Jiang, I absolutely forbid this recklessness!"
"Young Master, reconsider!!!"
Jiang Che lounged in the executive chair, legs propped on the table, the very image of a spoiled heir.
He dug at his ear, then pulled out his phone and dialed Jiang Yuan.
Speakerphone on.
Soon, Jiang Yuan's voice came through from the other end.
"You bunch of old fossils, we're in the era of immortal cultivation now! I think Jiang Che's idea is brilliant—straight-up reform to welcome the new era! I stand by my son's decision. Anyone who opposes can get the hell out of the company! Don’t blame me for not sparing any old ties!"
Jiang Yuan seemed busy, cursing a couple more times before hanging up abruptly.
The room fell dead silent.
Even the few old-timers who had been protesting earlier were now speechless.
"Well~ My father said it himself. So... from now on, Yuanche Pharmaceutical is getting a new name!"
"It’ll be renamed... Yuanche Elixir Supply Co., Ltd.!"
esick Sect? Well, at least it's considered a respectable orthodox sect. Wait a minute— What kind of vibe are you all giving off? Shouldn’t this be a love-struck, romance-obsessed sect? Why does everyone here sound more like demonic cultivators? "Master, today he’s getting married. This disciple wishes to descend the mountain and crash the wedding, then toy with him to death right in front of his wife..." "Elder, I only got into your sect through connections, so why won’t you teach me anything?" "Because I also became an elder through connections." Thankfully, Su Ji was just an outer sect labor disciple. Surely, nothing too crazy would— "Junior Brother, you’ve broken through to Qi Refining. Once you sever your useless spiritual root, you can officially become an outer sect disciple." "The Great Dao is merciless. Don’t let a worthless spiritual root waste your essence and spirit, hindering your cultivation." Is this really the Lovesick Sect? ... Three years later, Su Ji sat in the seat of the Lovesick Sect’s sect master, sighing with emotion. His rise to this position all started when his junior sister adamantly insisted on preserving his "spiritual root." "Mmm... Senior Brother, what’s our relationship now?" "Stop talking. Keep going." "By the way, that newly promoted top-tier sect—didn’t they come to buy our Love Beans?" "One top-grade spirit stone per Love Bean—is that really so expensive?" "I suspect they’ve eaten too many Love Beans." "Now they’re lovesick." Well, this really is the Lovesick Sect after all.

Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?"

Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"

m back to his original world. In the end, he realized he had overthought things. [Hey, why is Shen Manni, the female lead, acting strange? Shouldn't she be fawning over the male lead at this point?] [Zhou Qiaoqiao, are you sick? Weren't you supposed to break off your engagement today?] [Damn it!
