Divine fortune teller and traditional Chinese medicine doctor

"Hey! Brother Shan's here too? Looks like this is going to be quite a big event today!"

The young man looked at Niu Wenshan and spoke with a curious tone.

"Oh dear! Young Master Dong, you can't call me Brother Shan! How dare I, Niu Wenshan, call myself 'Brother' in front of Young Master Dong? Just call me Old Niu! Hahaha!"

Niu Wenshan smiled humbly as he spoke.

Even as the top dog in the southern district, he didn't dare to show any airs or prestige in front of this young man who looked to be only in his twenties!

At this moment, Niu Wenshan looked like a little follower in front of this young man.

This scene was not unexpected for Li Mu, but he was still somewhat surprised.

Although the divination clearly indicated that this big-name character who appeared last was more powerful than Niu Wenshan, Li Mu's current divination skills were not yet able to analyze the specific details so accurately and thoroughly.

He hadn't expected that this kid would have so much influence and power in Qianlong City!

Even someone like Niu Wenshan treated him with utmost respect.

Yes, this young man is none other than Wang Hedong, the young master of the most powerful family in Qianlong City, who was just accepted as a disciple by Li Mu!

At this moment, Wang Hedong had not yet seen Li Mu, who was surrounded by the crowd.

He came to the South District today to find his master. He happened to pass by Xingfu Street and saw so many people gathered here. Being curious, he stopped his car to come and see what was going on.

Li Mu had also foreseen the arrival of this disciple.

When Lu Ming saw Wang Hedong arrive, she was also very surprised. She couldn't help but exchange a glance with You Meiyu, her eyes filled with undisguised worry.

How could she not know Wang Hedong, the eldest son of the Wang family?

If this young master Dong is also going to back Niu Wenshan up, then she has absolutely no way to protect Li Mu today.

So when Lu Ming saw that Wang Hedong had also arrived, her heart sank into an ice cave.

"President Lu, what's going on today? Even a big shot like Young Master Dong is here? Looks like Niu Wenshan and he's on good terms! We're doomed!"

You Meiyu frowned and whispered to Lu Ming.

Li Mu overheard their conversation and chuckled inwardly.

Of course, people laugh at them for being overly worried.

"Alright, I'll call you Old Ox then. Old Ox, what's going on here? Such a big fuss?"

Wang Hedong asked with a faint smirk.

In fact, Niu Wenshan's respect for Wang Hedong was not only due to Wang Hedong's terrifying background, but also because this guy had a life-or-death friendship with their boss, Qiu Tianlong, the real overlord of the entire Qianlong City underworld.

Qiu Tianlong and Wang Hedong usually addressed each other as brothers who had been through thick and thin together. As someone of a lower rank like Niu Wenshan, how could he dare to disrespect Wang Hedong?

"Hehe, I'm afraid I'll have to make you laugh, Young Master Dong. It's all because of that damned old bastard. It wasn't a big deal to begin with, but the Lu family from the South District insisted on getting involved, and now things are getting tense! Luckily, Young Master Dong is here, and I hope you can uphold justice for us! That old bastard killed me..."

As Niu Wenshan spoke, he raised his hand and pointed at Li Mu, and only then did Wang Hedong look in the direction Niu Wenshan pointed towards the center of the crowd.

However, Niu Wenshan suddenly noticed something strange about the way Dong Shao was looking at Li Mu when he was halfway through his sentence!

"Master? Master! What are you doing here?! Ah? Master, the person Niu Wenshan and the others are after is you!"

When Wang Hedong discovered that the old rascal Niu Wenshan had mentioned was actually his master, he was so shocked that his eyelids twitched, and he shouted as he rushed to Li Mu's side.

He held Li Mu's arm, appearing extremely respectful.

"..."

This scene plunged the scene into an eerie silence.

"He Dong, what brings you here?"

Li Mu did not answer Wang Hedong's question, but instead asked with a smile.

Hearing this seemingly ordinary old man directly address the awesome Young Master Dong as "Hedong" is just like an elder addressing a junior!

At this moment, Niu Wenshan's expression froze on the word "astonishment".

His subordinates, including Hua Hu and Zhao Shijie, were all dumbfounded, their eyes wide open.

Those who were shocked included Niu Wenshan and others, as well as Lu Ming, You Meiyu, and other members of the Lu family who were standing next to Li Mu.

Just now, Lu Ming thought that this young master Dong was someone that their Lu family could not afford to offend, and that he was here to support Niu Wenshan. She never dreamed that this young master Dong was actually the apprentice of Doctor Li!

Her heart, which had fallen into an icy abyss, instantly soared into the bright sunshine!

You Meiyu was also stunned, glancing at Wang Hedong and then at Li Mu, her mind buzzing, and she could hardly believe what she was seeing.

"Hehe, Master, I just came to see you! I never expected you to be surrounded by a bunch of blind fools! Master, what's going on?"

Wang Hedong chuckled and asked Li Mu.

He addressed Li Mu as "Master" repeatedly, his tone respectful, admiring, and affectionate.

However, the closer Wang Hedong and Li Mu became, the more terrifying it was for Niu Wenshan and the others!

Especially after hearing Wang Hedong call them a bunch of "blind fools," Niu Wenshan was now terrified, his mind going completely blank.

"Sigh, I just wanted to rent a storefront on Happiness Street to open a clinic. Who knew that some bastards like Brother Biao would try to raise the rent, and then a conflict broke out. Now, they can't beat this old man, so they called their boss. This guy called Brother Shan even falsely accused me of killing his brother and wants to arrest me! Look at what they're saying!"

Li Mu explained simply, with a speechless expression on his face.

Hearing his master's words, Wang Hedong's face gradually darkened. He then turned to Niu Wenshan and coldly asked, "Old Niu, is what my master said true?"

Niu Wenshan's body jolted, then he blinked, swallowed hard, and stammered, "Young Master Dong... this... I really didn't know this old man was your master! Otherwise, I... even if I had a hundred and twenty leopards' gall, I wouldn't dare to provoke him..."

After Niu Wenshan finished speaking, he immediately turned his fierce gaze to Hua Hu, Zhao Shijie, and Zhuo Biao, whose head had been beaten into a pig's head, and angrily shouted, "You son of a bitch! Come over here and kowtow to Young Master Dong's master to admit your mistake!!"

Hua Hu, Zhao Shijie, and Zhuo Biao were all startled and immediately knelt down in front of Li Mu without thinking.

"Grandpa, spare us! We were blind and didn't know you were Young Master Dong's master!"

"Grandpa, please spare us! We were blind and offended you! Please, have mercy on us!"

"Grandpa, please forgive us! We were wrong!"

Hua Hu and the other two kowtowed repeatedly while pleading loudly.

At this moment, Niu Wenshan glanced at the other twenty-odd underlings.

Whoosh!

Immediately, all twenty-odd people knelt down, kowtowing and begging for forgiveness.

This spectacular scene astonished some onlookers and shop owners.

They were all exclaiming in astonishment, wondering who this old man was and how he could be so powerful!
