Ultimate Village Doctor

Chapter Seventy

After the car had left the mountains, it headed for the provincial highway.

Xinyuan County was located next to Niu Y County, not very far away—just tens of kilometers. It took about half an hour on the provincial highway to enter the territory of Xinyuan County.

Although they were adjacent,

Xinyuan County was much wealthier than Niu Y County.

Within Hechuan City's seven counties and districts, Niu Y County ranked near the bottom, whereas Xinyuan County ranked at the top, second only to Hechuan City proper.

Its population also far exceeded that of Niu Y County, which had only three hundred thousand residents, compared to nearly one million in Xinyuan County.

Despite the proximity, Long Xiaoshan had never visited Xinyuan County before and relied solely on his phone's navigation to reach Chengguan Town, the county seat of Xinyuan County. As he entered, a bustling county town unfolded before Long Xiaoshan's eyes.

The width of the streets and the variety of buildings were a notch higher than those in Niu Y County.

There were also significantly more cars on the road.

Many of them were luxury vehicles.

With Wang Feng's address etched in his memory, Long Xiaoshan followed the navigation to his destination.

Upon reaching that street, he found it to be the center of the urban area, but with tall French plane trees lining the road, and European-style villas on both sides, it was clearly an affluent area. Long Xiaoshan found the address.

A villa with notably expansive grounds stood there.

With his Spirit Eye, Long Xiaoshan could see inside and even spotted a swimming pool.

He parked under a plane tree opposite the villa, took out a Magic Artifact, and summoned Wang Feng, asking, "Is this your home?"

Wang Feng, clearly excited at the sight of the building, replied, "Yes, Immortal Master."

"Your family seems quite wealthy," remarked Long Xiaoshan.

Owning a villa with a swimming pool in the center of the county town was not common.

Wang Feng said, "The company I used to run had decent profits. If the Immortal Master can help me, I am willing to offer ten million as a reward."

Long Xiaoshan just smiled and said nothing.

He got out of the car and said, "Don't come out. I'll go ask."

Wang Feng, being able to manifest during the daytime, was already extraordinary, but even as a fierce ghost, he could not take form in daylight; the sun would still cause him to turn to ash and smoke.

Long Xiaoshan exited the car and approached the villa's gate, pressing the doorbell.

After a while, a young man in a suit opened the door. Eyeing Long Xiaoshan's rural garb, he demanded in a sharp tone, "Who are you?"

Long Xiaoshan, taking note that the young man was inked with tattoos and clearly one of those enforcer types, inquired, "Is Liu Yufeng at home?"

Liu Yufeng was Wang Feng's wife, as Long Xiaoshan stated.

"Get lost, get lost. Where did this bumpkin come from? There's no Liu Yufeng here," the young man said forcefully as he slammed the door shut.

This response quite annoyed Long Xiaoshan.

Still, he maintained his composure, refraining from immediate action and instead used his Spirit Eye to observe the villa. He saw several men and a few young women inside.

But he did not see anyone resembling a mother and daughter as Wang Feng had described.

Since Wang Feng's wife was also in her late thirties, it was clear that the women here were at most in their twenties.

He returned to the car and reported, "Wang Feng, your wife and child aren't inside."

"How can that be?" Wang Feng said urgently.

"You said you've been dead for three years. In three years, anything could happen. Moving away wouldn't be impossible." Long Xiaoshan reasoned.

Wang Feng evidently became anxious, looking as though he wanted to rush out.

Seeing his state, Long Xiaoshan said, "Going out now would be akin to seeking death. Don't be hasty. Since I've come, I intend to see this through and will help you look."

Wang Feng calmed down and pleaded, "Immortal Master, if you can find my wife and daughter, I'll make sure they thank you. I still have money, not much, but tens of millions at least."

"Let's not talk about that for now. You first tell me the name of your company. You seem like someone who could be traced," Long Xiaoshan suggested.

Wang Feng answered, "My company is called Beacon Biotech Co. Ltd., and we make health products. It's located in the economic development zone."

"All right, I'll go take a look."

Long Xiaoshan heard Wang Feng say this and then drove towards the direction of the development zone.

Arriving at the development zone, Long Xiaoshan quickly found Beacon Biotech Co. Ltd., which encompassed several hundred acres of factory space—Wang Feng's business was indeed substantial.

At this moment, Wang Feng couldn't help but poke his head out.

Fortunately, no sunlight could penetrate into the car, so he could still reveal a bit of himself.

Long Xiaoshan was just parking the car at the entrance, ready to go in and inquire about the situation.

Suddenly, Wang Feng exclaimed, "Immortal Master, Immortal Master, wait, that, that looks like my daughter, Wang Yan."

Long Xiaoshan looked over.

A girl in a skirt was entangled with a tall young man at the entrance.

The girl was about one meter seventy, with a fine figure, long slender legs, big eyes, and fair skin, clearly having led a life of comfort from a young age.

"Are you sure?"

"Let me take another look, it really is her, she has a beauty mark on the corner of her mouth, it can't be wrong, little Yan, you've grown up so much," Wang Feng became emotionally agitated and shouted, "Little Yan."

"Dad?"

The girl seemed to hear something and turned her head around.

Long Xiaoshan said, "Why are you shouting? She can't see you, let me go talk to her."

Long Xiaoshan got out of the car.

Wang Yan thought she had heard her father's voice, but when she turned around, all she saw was a young man dressed in an unfashionable manner getting out of a pickup truck.

She turned her head back in disappointment; her father had already been missing for three years, if he could have come back, he would have done so long ago.

"Wang Yan, I'll give you one more chance, be my girlfriend," the tall young man said.

Wang Yan forcefully pulled away from the young man who was grabbing her arm, "Feng Boo, let me go, I won't agree to be your girlfriend. Your Feng family has taken over my family's company, and now you want me to be your girlfriend. Dream on."

"Wang Yan, you said it yourself. I've given you face, but if this is how it's going to be, you're coming with me to a hotel today; otherwise, forget about the rest of your shares. Without the money, I'd like to see how you're going to pay for your mom's treatment," the young man's face turned fierce.

"You!" Wang Yan was filled with anger.

"Wang Yan?" a voice interjected.

Wang Yan saw the young man who had alighted from the pickup truck approaching, and asked with confusion, "Do you know me?"

"I don't know you, but I know your father. Isn't your father named Wang Feng?"

Wang Yan's heart trembled. Wang Feng had been missing for three years, and while he was once a well-known figure in Xinyuan County, he had been forgotten now, and she hadn't heard someone mention him in a long time, she asked, "You know my father, who are you?"

"My name is Long Xiaoshan, from Niu Y County. I'm here because your father entrusted me to find you," Long Xiaoshan said.

"What?" Wang Yan turned pale and said, "My father sent you? Where is my father then, where is he?"

"It's not convenient to talk here, get in the car and we'll talk," Long Xiaoshan opened the car door.

Wang Yan immediately wrinkled her brows, cautious.

Seeing her like this, Long Xiaoshan thought to himself that this girl still had some smarts, not losing her composure at the news of her father.

"Who are you, can't you see I'm talking to Wang Yan?" the young man beside her said with a frown and a fierce tone.

"Didn't I say? I'm Wang Feng's friend," Long Xiaoshan said.

"Bullshit, Wang Feng has been dead a long time ago," Feng Boo said.

"Feng Boo, don't you dare speak of my dad like that, my dad is only missing, not dead!" Wang Yan said angrily.

Feng Boo gave a cold laugh.

Long Xiaoshan's eyes shifted as he said, "How can you be so sure Wang Feng is dead? Is Wang Feng's disappearance related to you?"

Feng Boo's face changed as he said, "Don't slander me."

"Wang Yan, I have news about your dad. If you trust me, get on the car, but if you don't, I'll leave right now," Long Xiaoshan looked at Wang Yan.

"Fine, I'll get in the car," Wang Yan bit her lip and climbed into the pickup truck.
