“Ah!!!”
Liu Hong slammed on the brakes, the tires screeching against the ground. The air was instantly filled with the acrid scent of burnt rubber.
He looked at the passenger seat as if he had seen a ghost.
“You... you... you...”
Yin Yang turned his head. “What about me?”
“Zheng Yang? Is it... Is it really you!”
Liu Hong’s expression of terror transformed into joy, and his eyes quickly reddened.
“I knew it! I knew you wouldn’t die.”
“If even I could survive, there was no way you’d have a problem.”
“This is great... this is just great.”
Yin Yang smiled at the sight of him. He reached into his pocket, pulled out another ginkgo leaf, and handed it to Liu Hong.
“Help me give this to Mr. Yuan. Tell him that I will always remember having a teacher like him.”
Liu Hong rubbed his eyes. “You... aren’t you coming back with me?”
“No, I have to go.”
Liu Hong didn’t speak further, merely looking at him with a complex expression.
From the moment Liu Hong learned that Yin Yang had been hiding his status as a transcendent, he knew this man was anything but simple.
But regardless of his true identity or his goals, Liu Hong only knew one thing: this man had saved his life—twice!
Under these circumstances, nothing else mattered.
“Then... take care of yourself.”
“I will,” Yin Yang promised with a smile as he opened the door and stepped out. Liu Hong hurriedly called out after him.
“You’re leaving right here? We’re in the middle of nowhere! There isn’t a person in sight!”
“Come back inside. I’ll drive you to Huangshi City. It won’t be too late to leave once we get there.”
Yin Yang waved him off. “No need to go to all that trouble. Just go on ahead.”
“Will we see each other again? How can I contact you?”
Liu Hong leaned across the passenger seat toward the window, trying to make his voice as clear as possible.
“Liu Hong.”
“Yeah?”
“Stay alive!”
“Of course I’ll stay alive! I...”
Before he could finish his sentence, he realized Yin Yang was already gone from the side of the car.
He hurriedly unbuckled his seatbelt and got out to look around.
When he found that Yin Yang had truly vanished, a look of loneliness crossed his face. He took a deep breath, cupped his hands around his mouth, and shouted at the top of his lungs.
“Zheng Yang!!!”
“You have to stay alive too!!!”
...
Woo, woo—
The train sped along the tracks. Yin Yang sat by the window, reading a book.
“Mister, are you a barista?”
A young boy looked at Yin Yang with curiosity.
Yin Yang closed his book and smiled. “Yes, I am. How did you know?”
The little boy pointed proudly at the cover of Yin Yang’s book. “Because there’s a coffee pattern on it. My dad took me to drink it before.”
“And you smell like coffee. It smells really good.”
Yin Yang chuckled. Just as he was about to speak, the boy’s parent walked over and scooped the child up.
“I’m sorry, did he bother you?”
The parent spoke politely, but their eyes were wary.
Yin Yang waved it off with a smile. Without waiting for a reply, the parent carried the child back toward their seats.
“Goodbye, Mister!”
The little boy waved at Yin Yang before he left, showing good manners.
Yin Yang winked at him and returned to his book.
He didn’t think the parent was in the wrong. On the contrary, he wished every parent was this attentive to their children.
It had been three days since Yin Yang left Wangnian City.
The heroic spirits within the divine kingdom were somewhat unique. They didn't leave even after consuming the sacrifices, and their spirituality was slowly increasing.
From here on, it was simply a matter of patience and time; there was no need for him to stay on the front lines.
He was already certain that the person who had obtained his internal organs was a member of the royal family.
Since he had no other leads on the remaining organs anyway, why not try his luck in Central City?
Besides, he hadn't finished gathering the materials for his breakthrough to the Demigod rank. Central City’s resources were clearly much more abundant than those of other cities.
It was said that as long as you had money there, nothing was impossible!
That was why Yin Yang had purchased a ticket to Central City.
The train was crowded. Because war had broken out at the border, even though Great Wei hadn't officially evacuated the surrounding cities, anyone with a bit of money was choosing to move to the interior.
After all, safety was the top priority.
If you were dead, nothing else mattered.
“Attention, passengers! Attention, passengers!”
“We are now broadcasting an emergency request for medical assistance!”
“If there are any medical workers or passengers with emergency medical experience on board, please proceed immediately to Carriage 13, Seat B34 to assist with a medical emergency!”
“The patient has suddenly fainted and is experiencing convulsions. Professional help is urgently needed!”
“Once again, we appeal to any qualified medical personnel to proceed to Carriage 13, Seat B34!”
“Other passengers, please do not crowd the area and keep the aisles clear. Thank you for your cooperation.”
“Repeating...”
The emergency announcement rang out. Many passengers poked their heads out, peering toward Carriage 13 as if they could see what was happening from where they sat.
Yin Yang didn't hesitate. He stood up and made his way toward Carriage 13.
He was in Carriage 11, so it wasn't far.
When he arrived at Carriage 13, he saw a crowd gathered in the middle of the car.
A train attendant looked at Yin Yang as if he were a savior.
“Are you a doctor, sir?”
“Yes.”
Yin Yang pulled out his 【Disguiser’s Proof】 and showed it to the attendant.
“I am a doctor, a graduate of Huangyi City Medical School.”
The attendant didn't even look at the proof before turning around and shouting excitedly.
“A doctor is here! Everyone, move aside! Let the doctor through!”
The crowd parted, and Yin Yang strode forward. He saw a white-haired old man lying on the floor. His face was a sickly blue, his lips were purple, and his body was trembling slightly.
“Doctor, please! Please, you have to save my father!”
A middle-aged woman, her face covered in tears, almost collapsed to her knees before Yin Yang.
“Don’t panic. Everyone, back away at least three meters. The patient needs air.”
As he spoke, Yin Yang loosened the old man’s collar and turned his head and body to the side to prevent choking.
“To the family member: does the patient have any underlying medical conditions?”
“Yes, my father’s heart has always been poor. He also has high blood pressure and high cholesterol.”
“Do you have the medication he usually takes?”
“Yes, I have it!”
The woman retained some presence of mind and hurriedly pulled the old man’s regular medication from her bag.
Yin Yang took a look and nodded. He then reached into his ‘pocket’ and pulled out a syringe.
“According to the emergency medical regulations of Great Wei, I must explain the medication to you...”
“Doctor, as long as you can save my father, I will take full responsibility for any consequences!”
“Everyone here is a witness! Whether he lives or dies, I will bear the responsibility!”
The middle-aged woman wept as she made her promise, urging Yin Yang to proceed with the treatment.
Yin Yang didn't waste any more words and plunged the needle in!
As soon as the liquid was injected, the old man’s complexion improved significantly, and even his breathing became more forceful.
Seeing this, the middle-aged woman collapsed to her knees and burst into tears—a release of pure relief after her intense terror.
Yin Yang stood up. “He’s out of danger now. Just wait for him to wake up on his own.”
The surrounding passengers burst into applause, looking at Yin Yang with excitement.
They had witnessed a miracle with their own eyes.
The train attendant also looked at Yin Yang with excitement. “Sir, what is your name?”
“Liu Yang.”
