Exhausted!

Chen Nan felt an unprecedented level of tiredness.

Even breathing was exceptionally difficult.

Especially his eyelids—they were so heavy that he nearly felt like passing out.

"It seems I can't be so reckless in the future."

"I can't release all my True Qi; otherwise, my body won't be able to take it."

Chen Nan gasped heavily, then bit his tongue tip; under severe pain, his body regained some strength.

Then.

He forced himself to stand up, and once the elevator doors opened, he weakly walked towards the direction of the morgue.

He was very weak now.

With his current state, he couldn't possibly return to a prosperous life.

So, he had to cultivate for a while.

And the morgue was the best place to go.

Because there, the yin energy was rich. The Scripture of the Hidden Talisman could absorb the yin energy from the heavens and earth, converting it into True Qi, thereby strengthening Chen Nan's body.

There are many types of yin energy in the world.

The most sacred is the yin energy within a woman's body, which won't cause any harm to the body.

The worst is the yin energy emitted from a dead person.

Absorbing this kind of yin energy can affect the mind, making a person irritable and easily angered.

If it had been earlier, Chen Nan definitely wouldn't have chosen to absorb the yin energy from a dead person.

But now.

He had no choice!

The gloomy entrance of the morgue emitted a dim yellow light.

A night owl, upon seeing someone approaching, let out a hoarse meow and then quickly disappeared into the darkness.

Although he hadn't entered yet.

Chen Nan already smelled the pungent formaldehyde inside, along with a slight cool aura.

This kind of coolness was different from the coolness of air-conditioning.

The cool breeze from the air conditioner can make one's body feel cool and comfortable.

However, this trace of coolness near the morgue could chill someone to the core.

Sitting cross-legged.

Chen Nan silently chanted the Scripture of the Hidden Talisman.

The next moment.

He felt the surrounding yin energy slowly gathering towards him, eventually entering his body.

As more and more yin energy entered his body, Chen Nan clearly felt as though his body, like a parched land, was being irrigated by sweet rain.

The feeling of exhaustion also gradually weakened.

"That's about enough."

As soon as he felt the exhaustion dissipate, Chen Nan decisively stopped cultivating; he also knew that continuing to absorb the surrounding yin energy could enhance his cultivation level.

But he knew too well the dangers of absorbing a dead person's yin energy.

He got up and left the morgue, walking towards the hospital's main entrance.

And just as he reached the entrance to the emergency room, he inadvertently saw a large group of people standing in the corridor outside the resuscitation room.

Of course.

That didn't matter.

What mattered was that there was an acquaintance, Li Yao.

Seeing this, Chen Nan turned and entered the emergency room.

"Mr. Chen, what brings you here?" Li Yao looked at Chen Nan with a face full of surprise, his eyes clearly showing an added level of respect.

Although he had always respected Chen Nan.

But now.

He had come to regard Chen Nan as a transcendent master.

Chen Nan looked at the middle-aged men in police uniforms behind Li Yao. Although he did not know their identities, their police ranks were all quite high.

As Chen Nan was sizing up these people, the middle-aged men were also anxiously looking at him.

They did not know Chen Nan's background and origins.

But the fact that Li Yao was treating him so respectfully, even calling him "Sir,"

was enough to show that he was no ordinary person.

Chen Nan asked doubtfully, "Has Old Zhao not woken up yet?"

Li Yao grunted, his expression grave, "Old Zhao's injuries are severe; not only was his stomach perforated, but his lungs have also been severely damaged!"

"It's not a big problem; he should wake up in about ten more minutes." Chen Nan said casually, then added, "Nothing much, I was just passing by the hospital and saw you here, so I came in to say hello."

"Well, I'm going to head off now."

Li Yao said politely, "Let me see you out," and left the emergency room with Chen Nan.

Watching Li Yao escort Chen Nan away, the few middle-aged men in police uniforms exchanged glances, revealing expressions of doubt.

How could he possibly know that Director Zhao would wake up in ten minutes?

Could this guy have the ability to foresee the future?

Outside the emergency room, Li Yao said respectfully, "Mr. Chen, about that matter you instructed, I've set the wheels in motion. I estimate that your friend will soon receive a new job assignment."

Chen Nan smiled, "Thanks!"

Li Yao replied, "I should be thanking you."

Chen Nan responded, "We're practically family now; no need to be so formal. Go on, you're busy!" Saying this, he walked out of the hospital and waited for over ten minutes before finally catching a taxi.

After getting into the car, Chen Nan said, "Master, to the Yangsheng Hall Pharmacy."

The taxi immediately headed toward the Yangsheng Hall Pharmacy as instructed by Chen Nan.

Watching the neon lights flit by outside the window, Chen Nan thought to himself, "Once I've made some money, I really should buy a car for transportation; it would make going out much more convenient."

He had already obtained his driver's license two years ago, and had planned with his father that, after the college entrance examinations, he would buy a car he liked.

But due to a quarrel with his father, he had angrily entered the mountains, and the plan to buy a car was also postponed.

While Chen Nan was en route to the Yangsheng Hall Pharmacy,

Wang Li's cellphone suddenly rang.

She was eating spicy snail noodles and watching her favorite TV show. Seeing an unknown caller, she hit the answer button impatiently, "I'm not interested in investing, I won't consider purchasing any shops, I'm looking to borrow money, but I have none to repay."

Wang Li was in a bad mood.

Although she had experienced the joy of being a woman today,

Chen Nan had not provided her with the answers she wanted.

There was a brief silence on the phone, followed by a polite voice of a middle-aged man, "I'm Chen Liang from the Jizhou City Health Bureau, may I speak with Miss Wang Li?"

Hearing the caller's affiliation, Wang Li's pupils suddenly trembled, and her chopsticks fell to the ground, powerless. She immediately responded, "Hello, I...I'm Wang Li. What can I do for you?"

As a doctor, Wang Li clearly understood the considerable power held by the Health Bureau.

The Health Bureau is the chief administrative body for all hospitals!

She could not comprehend why someone from the Health Bureau would call her at this time.

Chen Liang said politely, "After discussions among the leaders of the Health Bureau, we have decided to reassign you and provide a new position. You have been appointed as the Deputy Director of the Public Relations Department at Jizhou First People's Hospital. May I know when Miss Wang can start?"

Boom!

With a few simple words,

Wang Li felt a tingling sensation on her scalp, her pupils trembled fiercely, and a tidal wave of emotions surged in her heart.

It felt surreal to her, like she was dreaming,

as she was just an inconspicuous school doctor at present.

Who would have thought

that the leaders of the Health Bureau would arrange for her to take the position of Deputy Director of Public Relations at the People's Hospital?

It was like a sudden elevation to heaven!

After the shock, Wang Li suppressed the excitement in her heart and asked, "Mr. Chen, if I may ask, why have the leaders chosen to appoint me to the position of Deputy Director of Public Relations?"
