The shocking news spread throughout Haicheng. Ding Fengtang, Haicheng's wealthiest magnate, along with his two sons and grandson, had their lives claimed by "Bai Wuchang." Also taken were Wang Wei, the underworld emperor of Haicheng, and two of his subordinates.
With his great revenge exacted, Ye Tian went to the graves of his parents and elder sister-in-law that night to burn incense and offer prayers. He returned home well past one in the morning.
Ye Shaodong was awake and had been waiting for Ye Tian. Seeing his brother return, he asked, "Xiao Tian, where did you go?"
Ye Tian replied, "Nowhere, just went for a walk."
Then he smiled and said, "Brother, I'll give you acupuncture."
After this session, Ye Shaodong's fingers could move, and he could slowly turn over by himself. Though his hands still couldn't grasp things, he could lift them to pat Ye Tian's head.
Ye Shaodong was overjoyed and asked, "Xiao Tian, how long until I can walk on my own?"
Ye Tian thought for a moment and said, "A week. Within a week, I'll have you standing."
After Ye Shaodong fell asleep, Ye Tian went to the backyard.
The backyard was vast, with a flat clearing. He stood in a stable stance, breathing and circulating his qi.
He was practicing the supreme cultivation technique, the Jiusi Tianjing, passed down to him by his ancestors in a dream. Based on Jiusi Tianjing, there were many other miraculous martial arts techniques, of which he had only learned a few so far.
After cultivating for three hours, he slowly concluded his practice, murmuring, "I've been in the Hua realm for half a year, yet I still haven't broken through to the Shen realm. It seems this world is no longer suitable for cultivators."
In his dreams, he had seen the era of his ancestors, a time when there were many places filled with abundant spiritual energy. But now, such places were likely hard to find.
"I need to find spiritual energy quickly, otherwise, my Shen realm will never break through," he muttered.
Early the next morning, Lin Ziyi woke up to prepare breakfast. After breakfast, she personally took Yan'er to the nearby international kindergarten. The teachers there were better, and the facilities were vastly superior to the previous kindergarten.
Ye Tian stayed at home to continue treating Ye Shaodong.
As soon as Lin Ziyi returned, she smiled and asked, "Tian Ge, when are you going to report to the hospital?"
In Lin Ziyi's view, Ye Tian should find a stable job as soon as possible.
Ye Tian smiled and replied, "I'll go after I get my medical license."
Lin Ziyi said, "Alright. Then I'm going to work?"
Lin Ziyi worked at an advertising company and, due to her hard work, was currently a manager in the marketing department.
With nothing else to do, Ye Tian said, "I'll drive you."
Lin Ziyi smiled and said, "No need, I can manage. You stay home and take care of Big Brother. Oh, I might not be back for lunch, so make something for yourself to eat."
Thus, Lin Ziyi drove Ye Tian's "second-hand" 7-series to work. She hadn't wanted to drive, feeling it was too ostentatious. But Ye Tian had insisted, carrying her to the car, so she had no choice but to drive it to work.
After seeing Lin Ziyi off, Ye Tian thought about the prescription. He had signed a contract with Yang Shoucheng to develop a drug for type 2 diabetes. Therefore, he had to go to the factory to produce the samples.
He then called Yang Shoucheng. Shortly after, a car arrived at his doorstep to pick him up.
The car drove directly to a pharmaceutical factory in Haicheng. The factory had professional experimental equipment, and Ye Tian would prepare the medicine here.
Upon arriving at the factory, Ye Tian was greeted by a young woman in a white coat, who was beautiful and clearly had the scent of medicinal chemicals about her.
The woman extended her hand and smiled, "Welcome, Mr. Ye. My name is Zhu Hongyan, and I am the head of the factory's laboratory."
Ye Tian shook her hand, saying, "Hello, Miss Zhu."
Zhu Hongyan wore no makeup, but her beauty was on par with Lin Ziyi's. Furthermore, as a researcher, she possessed a unique aura.
