Ultimate Village Doctor

Chapter Two Hundred and Sixteen

Upon hearing Wang Sihai's roar on the phone, Zhu Liang knew he was finished.

After obtaining Wang Sihai's assurance that Zhu Liang would disappear before him,

Long Xiaoshan and Ashui walked out of Dihao Entertainment City.

"Brother Long, please get in the car," Ashui said as he opened the back door of the Bentley.

Long Xiaoshan and Chun Tao took a seat in the back, Ashui closed the car door, got into the driver's seat, started the car, and drove the Bentley out of the parking lot.

After the Bentley entered the street, a young girl walked out from a corner of the parking lot.

It was Li Mengjie.

The Kowloon Mountain Clubhouse was located on a mountain in the suburbs of Hechuan City, named Kowloon Mountain. The mountain was densely forested and even boasted a hot spring. After being surveyed by a feng shui grandmaster, it was said that this place was a treasure spot of feng shui capable of accumulating dragon energy, which could lead to promotions and wealth.

Therefore, it had been claimed early on by Hechuan City's richest man, Zhou Yushan, to build a private clubhouse.

The Kowloon Mountain Clubhouse was not open to the general public.

Unlike Dihao Entertainment City, where anyone with money could go to spend,

The Kowloon Mountain Clubhouse was more like a private forest garden.

Only the real big shots of Hechuan City could enter this place. However, today, the Kowloon Mountain Clubhouse was busier and more strictly guarded than usual.

After the Bentley wound its way up Kowloon Mountain, passing checks at three gatekeeper posts at the foot, midway, and the top of the mountain, it finally drove into the parking lot of the Kowloon Mountain Clubhouse.

"Nice place," said Long Xiaoshan as he looked at the clubhouse hidden among the dense forests and the layout of the entire Kowloon Mountain.

Others might not notice.

But he, a Spirit Practitioner with the Heavenly Eye, had already enveloped the whole Kowloon Mountain, and with his knowledge of feng shui, he could tell that the place had been transformed by a feng shui grandmaster. The layout and terrain were definitely a treasure of feng shui.

Even, the spiritual energy for cultivation here was more abundant than outside.

Ordinary people living here would have stronger bodies, and cultivators would progress faster here than outside.

Long Xiaoshan and Chun Tao walked hand in hand.

They didn't seem to be here for an arena competition, but rather as tourists.

Originally, he wanted to send Chun Tao away first, but since she wanted to be with him, he let her stay.

Seeing Long Xiaoshan and Chun Tao leisurely touring the clubhouse manor, with Long Xiaoshan occasionally pointing and admiring his surroundings, Ashui was speechless, thinking to himself how carefree Brother Long was.

Did he not realize how important tonight's arena competition was?

Today was the day that would determine the fate of the entire underground forces of Hechuan City.

If this were ancient times, it would resemble the struggle for the position of martial alliance hierarch.

Whoever emerged victorious from the arena competition would be able to decisively become the real decision-maker of Hechuan City's underground. Yet, at this time, Long Xiaoshan actually had the leisure to appreciate the scenery.

Ashui couldn't help but remind him, "Brother Long, Boss Wang is already waiting for you inside."

"Oh," Long Xiaoshan seemed to snap out of it.

Pulling Chun Tao's hand, he said, "Let's go inside and take a look first, if it's not fun, we can leave in a bit."

"Mhm," Chun Tao nodded.

"..."

Ashui didn't know what else to say.

He led Long Xiaoshan and the others toward the main clubhouse. After a few steps, he saw Wang Sihai standing at the entrance of the grand hall, looking around anxiously. Find more to read at empire

Upon seeing Long Xiaoshan, Wang Sihai's face brightened with joy, and he quickly walked over, exclaiming, "Brother Long, you finally arrived."

"Director Wang," Long Xiaoshan nodded in acknowledgement.

"Brother Long, I'm truly sorry about the matter with Zhu Liang, I swear I won't let him appear before you again."

Long Xiaoshan waved his hand dismissively, too lazy to speak. Zhu Liang was just a minor character. Whether Wang Sihai dealt with him or not, Zhu Liang would never be able to stand tall again in his lifetime. Those who threatened his family, he would not let them off easily.

"Brother Long, this way, please. Let's rest for a bit first. The ring competition doesn't start until eight o'clock," Wang Sihai said respectfully.

"Alright."

A group of people walked inside.

Suddenly, Long Xiaoshan's gaze caught a familiar figure, and he exclaimed, "Zhao Jun."

Zhao Jun stood with another group of people. Among them was a man in a Tang suit playing with a string of star-and-moon Buddha beads. He appeared to be in his fifties or sixties, with half-white hair and a dignified presence. Zhao Jun stood slightly behind him, indicating the man's higher status.

Zhao Jun was now helping with his work, keeping an eye on the Longling Pharmaceuticals' business in Xinyuan County.

Hearing Long Xiaoshan's voice, Zhao Jun turned his head around.

His face showed a mix of surprise and then quickly turned somewhat fearful.

Long Xiaoshan asked, "What are you doing here?"

Zhao Jun replied with a respectful face, "I'm here to watch the ring competition, Brother Long."

Seeing Zhao Jun treat a young man with such reverence, the man in the Tang suit furrowed his brows. Zheng Laoshi had helped Zhao Jun in the past. Although Zhao Jun had since become independent and was thriving in Xinyuan County, he still had to call the man Fourth Uncle upon seeing him.

Now, Zhao Jun was showing more deference to this younger person than to him, which rubbed him the wrong way.

And this young man was standing with Wang Sihai.

Everyone in Hechuan County knew that he and Wang Sihai were at odds.

"Director Wang." The man in the Tang suit said coolly.

"Zheng Laoshi," Wang Sihai responded with a forced smile.

"Who is this young fellow? I don't recognize him. Could he be one of your juniors?" Zheng Laoshi asked indifferently.

"Zheng Laoshi, don't get things wrong. This is Brother Long, not one of my juniors, but a master I've invited to hold the fort," Wang Sihai hurriedly said.

"Your invited master? Him?" Zheng Laoshi laughed.

He thought Long Xiaoshan looked like an ordinary person, and even more like someone who had come up the hard way, otherwise his skin wouldn't be so dark, and his clothes wouldn't be so shabby.

"Zheng Laoshi, what are you laughing at?" Wang Sihai said with displeasure.

"Wang Sihai, you've really regressed with age. In today's tournament that will decide the Dragon Head of the Hechuan City Chamber of Commerce, you invited him to contend with Yu Cheng?" Zheng Laoshi scoffed coldly.

"Fourth Uncle, please be cautious with your words," Zhao Jun hurriedly tugged at Zheng Laoshi's sleeve.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Others might not know, but how could he not? Long Xiaoshan was a tough man, someone who couldn't even be killed by bullets.

However, his action made Zheng Laoshi lose face, especially since Zhao Jun was his man and was advising him to be cautious. He spoke sharply, "Junzi, what are you doing?"

Zhao Jun replied, "Brother Long is a master, a very formidable one."

"Nonsense! Junzi, have you become muddled after a few months of not seeing? This is what a real master looks like, here comes the grandmaster," Zheng Laoshi said disdainfully.

As he spoke, a Rolls-Royce pulled up.

The car door opened, and a person in a black robe stepped out, emitting a chilling and decayed aura.

Once the man descended, everyone felt their skin tingle. He was extremely thin, almost skeletal, and he held a bell in his hand. After shaking the bell, a harsh sound rang out from it.

Click-clack.

A tall figure crawled out from the back seat of the Rolls-Royce. The person's movements were bizarre, stiff to the extreme, as if not quite human.

And their skin was a grayish brown, uncharacteristic of any living person. As he stepped out, a wave of putrefaction enveloped the air.

The people around couldn't help but step back in horror.
