Chapter 1158: Chapter 1158: The Village Tyrant

Qiao Guangxuan naturally couldn’t be happier. Firstly, he could help the locals solve their problems and secondly, he could also meet Ye Chenfeng and the others’ requirements. It was truly a win-win situation.

The group eventually switched to an off-road vehicle, and after driving for over an hour, entered a mountain road, though it was quite smooth. Thankfully, it was an off-road vehicle, so it didn’t bump much.

Finally, the group arrived at their destination, an absolute feng shui treasure trove, even just by its appearance.

After all, Jin City is economically strong, even in such a remote village, everyone was well-off, and there were quite a few small cars on the road.

After finishing a phone call, Qiao Guangxuan added, “This Immortal is actually a lama, respected here as Master.”

“What? A lama?” Ye Chenfeng reacted intensely, asking immediately.

After all, he was very sensitive to lamas right now.

“Yes, he’s a lama, rumored to possess Divine Skills, capable of everything!” Qiao Guangxuan said.

Ye Chenfeng secretly suppressed the excitement in his heart, returning to a normal expression.

Could it be today’s unexpected encounter might happen? Could one’s luck be this good?

The vehicle continued moving into the village, Ye Chenfeng silently urged it to go faster.

“Is this guy crazy?”

A Land Rover raced towards them, speeding over 150 km/h on a rural road, that was absolutely insane.

“Xiao Zhang, steer to the side, be careful!” Qiao Guangxuan advised.

Qiao Mayor’s driver Xiao Zhang was experienced, quickly dodging the fast car rushing towards them with ease. The seemingly crazy Land Rover rushed past them.

“Xianyou Village even has people who can afford a Land Rover?” Qiao Guangxuan couldn’t help but question.

Just when everyone thought they were safe, the Land Rover that had passed by suddenly followed them.

“Mayor Qiao, that Land Rover is following us, it looks like they’re coming for us.” Seeing this through the rearview mirror, driver Xiao Zhang commented.

“What’s happening?”

Just as Mayor Qiao spoke, there was a loud bang.

The vehicle experienced a powerful impact, tossing everyone inside around.

Although no one was injured, the shock of the collision was enough to give everyone a fright.

“What’s going on? Was this intentional?” Qiao Guangxuan immediately became angry.

Without hesitation, the group got out of the car.

Qiao Guangxuan was filled with rage, determined to demand an explanation.

After Ye Chenfeng and the others got out, four people stepped down from the Land Rover behind them.

The leading youth had a face full of flesh, dyed silver hair, dressed in denim style, appearing extremely arrogant. The other three were dressed similarly. Judging by their looks and demeanor, they were street thugs.

“What are you doing? Was the collision intentional?” Qiao Guangxuan shouted.

The leading young man sneered, “Yes, it was intentional!”

“You…”

The other side’s candidness left Qiao Guangxuan lost for words.

“You guys came to Xianyou Village to find Master, right?” Another youth couldn’t help but ask.

“So what if we did? Explain the collision first!” The mayor’s secretary angrily replied.

The youth let out a cold laugh, “Heh, since you’re here to find Master, you must follow our Xianyou Village’s rules.”

“Oh? What rules?” Ye Chenfeng curiously asked.

“Of course, there’s a toll fee. Building roads in our village isn’t easy. You have cars and people here. How about this, each of you throws in five thousand, and we’ll consider it like nothing happened today.” The young man arrogantly said.

Qiao Guangxuan’s anger surged within him, shouting, “You hit the car for no reason and now you’re charging a protection fee. What you’re doing is no different from thugs!”

“Hahaha…”

The youth exchanged glances, then burst into laughter, looking at Qiao Guangxuan like he was an idiot.

“Heh, old man, let me tell you. We call the shots here, if you don’t pay, don’t even think about seeing Master, let alone leaving!” The young man continued brazenly.

Qiao Guangxuan was furious, loudly declaring, “You’re committing a crime, do you have no regard for laws and regulations?”

“Hahaha…”

This brought another uproar of laughter from the youths, all laughing uncontrollably.

“Laws, regulations? Let me tell you, in Xianyou Village, Wang Longsheng is the boss. My dad runs the largest factory in the village, even the village committee secretary has to listen to us. The town mayor has to check my dad’s mood, not to mention anyone from the county. In short, here, I’m the overlord. If you don’t follow me, you’re opposing me. Opposing me is seeking death!” The leading young man coldly smirked.

With these words, the atmosphere became incredibly tense.

Especially for Qiao Guangxuan, whose body trembled continuously from anger. This was happening on his turf, making him the one losing face.

He had just signed a big project with Chu Qingxue earlier and needed to leave a good impression, but this scene was enough to ruin his image.

“Even the town mayor listens to you?” Qiao Guangxuan squinted and asked.

Wang Longsheng proudly raised an eyebrow and laughed, “Of course, my dad is the richest in the town, contributing so much to it.”

“Are you set on collecting the protection fee?” Qiao Guangxuan suppressed his anger and asked.

“Heh, old man, you really are foolish, didn’t I just say? It’s a road maintenance fee. If you want to pay a protection fee, then add another five thousand per person, making it ten thousand.” Wang Longsheng sneered.

“You’re extorting money!” Driver Xiao Zhang couldn’t help but say.

Qiao Guangxuan stared firmly at Wang Longsheng, “What if I don’t pay the protection fee?”

Wang Longsheng rubbed his hands together and said, “If that’s the case, you’ll have to leave the car here, and these two girls have to stay too.”

The youths’ gazes fixed on Chu Qingxue and Gu Jundie…

“Alright, very good!” Qiao Guangxuan helplessly said, then changed his tone, “Who’s the village committee secretary?”

“Li Wensheng, do you know him, old man?” Wang Longsheng tauntingly said.

Qiao Guangxuan angrily shouted, “What’s Li Wensheng worth anyway?”

Qiao Guangxuan’s roar startled many people, including Wang Longsheng.

Wang Longsheng looked baffled but immediately became angry, “Damn, old man, you’re here to pick a fight, aren’t you? If you leave here safe and sound today without paying, I’ll eat shit!”

Wang Longsheng’s fury caused the other youths to angrily approach.

“Hiss!”

At this moment, a white sedan stopped by the roadside, and a plump middle-aged man got out.

“Uncle Li, this guy is deliberately causing trouble, and said you’re worthless?” Seeing the newcomer, Wang Longsheng immediately said.

The middle-aged man was Li Wensheng, and upon hearing this, he instantly became angry, “Who insulted me?”
