While out picking up trash, I was forcefully pushed around by a beautiful female CEO.

Zhao Yang stood frozen at the stairwell for several seconds, looking left and right. He only saw Lin Feng's figure and patches of blood in the corridor, and he gasped in shock.

"Holy crap, Feng, you did this?"

Zhao Yang pointed at the high-speed rail gate that had pierced through the wall and couldn't help but swear.

"Stop talking nonsense, tell Zhang Ming and Li Hang to hold Xiao Liquan down! He sent a grandmaster to kill me. If I hadn't been lucky, I would have been dead here... cough cough..."

Lin Feng said irritably. Although he had escaped with his life, it was impossible for him not to feel any anger.

With his Qi Transformation level strength, he managed to withstand two moves from Qian Jiuqing, a mid-stage Grandmaster. Even with the foundation of a peak Grandmaster, he was still seriously injured, and his whole body was in pain.

However, the pain he had endured over the past two years had already pushed Lin Feng's pain tolerance to an extremely terrifying level. Therefore, the stinging sensation in his body was still within his tolerance range.

"Grandmaster...?"

Zhao Yang was even more stunned, taking a deep breath and staring at Lin Feng, stammering, "Feng... Brother Feng, you... you said the person you were fighting just now was a Grandmaster?"

"Hmm, mid-stage Grandmaster!"

Lin Feng nodded.

"Holy crap, where is he?!"

Zhao Yang swallowed hard.

"Dead! If I weren't dead, would I still be standing here talking to you?"

Lin Feng pointed to the elevator shaft and said irritably.

The old Taoist priest had no intention of revealing himself to the world, so Lin Feng naturally kept quiet.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yang rushed to the elevator shaft, craned his neck to look down, and after seeing Qian Jiuqing's miserable state, he shuddered twice. He turned back to look at Lin Feng as if he were a monster: "My goodness, you even killed a Grandmaster?"

"What do you mean, kid?"

Lin Feng was amused and annoyed, but he couldn't explain, "Why are you staring at me like that?"

"Brother, from now on you'll be my idol..."

Zhao Yang chuckled and scurried over, then looked at Lin Feng hesitantly: "Brother Feng, I just heard a woman screaming for help downstairs in the elevator. Is there someone else in the elevator?"

The woman's cries for help that Zhao Yang mentioned were naturally from the female nurse who brought Lin Feng here. The elevator had fallen from the first basement level to the second basement level, which was only one floor away. No one would die, but injuries were certain.

The nurse was probably woken up by the fall, which is why she was calling for help.

"Yeah, there's a nurse who tricked me into coming here!"

Lin Feng nodded indifferently, then looked at Zhao Yang with a mocking expression: "What? You want to save her?"

"Save my ass! I'm not a bodhisattva! If she doesn't die from this ambush on Brother Feng, her ancestors' graves will be emitting auspicious smoke."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yang's expression changed immediately, and he angrily cursed.

"Alright, forget about her. Let her live or die as she pleases, get back to work!"

Lin Feng lightly kicked Zhao Yang.

"Okay!"

Zhao Yang was now extremely impressed with Lin Feng. Not only was his background impressive, but his personal strength was also incredibly impressive.

Because he was unaware of the old Taoist priest's existence, Zhao Yang assumed that Qian Jiuqing was killed by Lin Feng.

The two did not linger on the basement level, but went up to the third floor via the fire escape.

Midway through, Zhao Yang called Zhang Ming and asked him to take Li Hang to arrest Xiao Liquan.

Lin Feng then called Qin Xiangyang and recounted what had happened that day.

He wanted to settle scores with Wang Zewei, but out of consideration for Qin Xiangyang, he still had to inform him, since Qin Xiangyang was unaware that Xiao Liquan had been secretly bribed by forces in Kyoto.

Minghai, who was just about to leave work, broke out in a cold sweat after listening to Lin Feng's story on the phone.

"Xiao Feng, I was careless this time! I introduced Wang Zewei to you because I thought having him as the county head would make things much easier for you, but I didn't expect..."

Qin Xiangyang was filled with lingering fear and guilt. By the end, his face was burning with embarrassment, and he couldn't bring himself to continue.

"Uncle Qin, please don't overthink it. The way the forces in Kyoto bribed Wang Zewei was very discreet. Even my father and his group didn't notice anything, let alone you! I'm just explaining the whole story to you, Uncle Qin, so you won't misunderstand when we settle things with Wang Zewei!"

Lin Feng endured the pain and took a breath of cold air as he spoke.

"Don't worry, Xiao Feng, you just kill them. I'll immediately arrange for absolutely reliable people to take over the affairs of Ya'ao County! Don't have any worries. Anyone who colludes with Wang Zewei, don't let a single one go..."

Qin Xiangyang was also seething with anger, wishing he could personally strangle Wang Zewei, but he quickly noticed the unusual tone in Lin Feng's voice and immediately changed the subject, asking worriedly, "Xiao Feng, are you injured?"

"There's one thing: my opponent was a grandmaster, and my strength hadn't fully recovered, so I suffered a bit!"

Lin Feng didn't hide anything and said it directly.

"Are you alright? I'll arrange for someone to pick you up right now!"

Qin Xiangyang's forehead was covered in sweat, and a chill was seeping from his back.

"It's alright, Uncle Qin, don't worry, he won't die."

Lin Feng smiled, offered Qin Xiangyang a few words of comfort, and then hung up the phone.

After Lin Feng hung up the phone, Qin Xiangyang felt completely weak and slumped onto the sofa, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

If Lin Feng really had an accident in Ya'ao County this time, the consequences would be unimaginable. Wang Zewei was recommended to Lin Feng by him, so he would definitely not be able to escape responsibility for Lin Feng's actions. He would have no face to explain to the Shen family and the Lin family in Kyoto.

After slumping on the sofa and smoking two cigarettes, Qin Xiangyang calmed down a lot and then picked up the phone to make a call.

"Mayor Qin, why are you calling me at this hour?"

The call was answered quickly, and the person on the other end said, flattered.

"Stop talking nonsense, Wei Hua, can I trust you?"

Qin Xiangyang asked directly, "The person on the other end of the phone is Zhang Weihua, who is currently the police chief of a township under Ya'ao County. Besides that, there's another connection! This Zhang Weihua is a cousin of his in-law Zhang Yuandong. He's of average ability, but he's honest and doesn't like to scheme. If it weren't for Qin Xiangyang helping him out because of the Zhang family's connections, Zhang Weihua would still be sitting quietly in a low-level, idle position."

Normally, given the Zhang family connection, he would never speak to Zhang Weihua like that.

However, Wang Zewei's affair has left Qin Xiangyang with some psychological trauma. He has no idea how many people within the Minghai City government have been secretly bribed by the Kyoto authorities.

Therefore, we can only find the most reliable one.

"Brother Xiangyang, what are you saying? The Zhang family and the Qin family share weal and woe. Have I done something wrong? Brother Xiangyang, just tell me!"

Zhang Weihua was also somewhat doubtful at this moment, but he gritted his teeth and spoke with a firm attitude.

"Alright, I trust you. Now, I'm assigning you a task. Right now, use all available resources and manpower to go to Ya'ao County and take control of Wang Zewei's government team. This is the authority I'm giving you! Anyone who dares to obstruct you, execute them on sight! I'll send people over immediately; they'll be there in an hour and a half! You'd better hold them off. If you succeed this time, even if I have to overturn the table, I'll push you into Wang Zewei's position!"

Qin Xiangyang said sternly.
