My ex-girlfriend thought I was poor, so I made 100 million by betting on stones.

Chapter 1983 Another Visit to the Ruins

Liu Yueyun was a little unhappy and said, "With you here, and with Murong Wan and the others coming back, what could possibly happen to Xiao Yi?"

"His strength means he can't stay out of it."

Yang Feng continued, "And I have a premonition..."

"what?"

"Time may not be as plentiful as you might imagine."

As Yang Feng spoke, he added, "By the way, has Murong Wan returned?"

"I don't know, do you need to see her for something?"

"Yes, I plan to go see the ruins of Chaos with her again."

"That ruin, nearly 10,000 meters underwater?"

"Yes, I went to see it last time, I..."

Yang Feng had only spoken halfway through his sentence.

Zhao Zhuwei and Yang Xiaoshi's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Ten thousand meters below the sea level?!?"

"Ancient ruins!"

The two of them looked at Yang Feng almost simultaneously, their big eyes filled with anticipation.

Yang Feng was speechless and said, "We shouldn't have talked about this in front of these two."

Wow! Can we go together too?

"That's definitely more fun than playing video games!"

The two of them moved closer to Yang Feng.

Seeing their eyes brimming with anticipation, Yang Feng scratched his head helplessly and said, "Alright, alright, can you two be a little more reserved? Don't act like you've discovered a new continent every day."

"But this is no different from the New World!"

"Exactly! Scientific journals don't even publish articles about these kinds of archaeological sites!"

Yang Xiaoshi also complained about modern science.

Yang Feng shook his head, looked at Liu Yueyun opposite him, and asked, "What about you?"

“I definitely want to go too. After all, I’ve never been there before, and I’ve heard that there are still some remnants of formations there. Maybe we’ll make some discoveries.”

Liu Yueyun also had high expectations for this site.

Just as Yang Feng finished speaking, Zhao Zhuwei and Yang Xiaoshi ran upstairs together.

The two appeared to be changing their clothes.

Yang Feng also stood up and said, "I'm going to the Investigation Bureau. I reckon Murong Wan will be there too."

"Ah."

Liu Yueyun agreed.

When Yang Feng went outside, it was already past seven o'clock in the evening.

The Investigation Bureau at this time.

Headquarters building.

It was busier than ever before, and also emptier than ever before.

At this time, the investigation bureau had only one guard left at the gate, seemingly just to symbolically prevent some unauthorized personnel from entering.

Inside the building.

Although lights were on everywhere.

However, the busy figures of the past are now much fewer.

The fact that the number of people here is so clearly visible to the naked eye demonstrates just how severe the Bureau of Investigation's losses have been.

"Yang Feng?! You're here!"

A surprised voice came from behind.

Yang Feng turned around and looked.

It was Chen Xiaojing and Wei Yang who had just returned from eating out.

Upon seeing the two, Yang Feng smiled and said, "Thank goodness, it seems you guys weren't dealt with."

"Haha, we would like to pledge allegiance to Shanhe, but our strength is too weak, so we have no value in uniting the people."

Chen Xiaojing joked.

Yang Feng found a step to sit down and asked, "Where is your Director Jiang?"

"He seems to have had something to do today and didn't come back."

"Something happened?"

"He must have been sent over by his superiors for a meeting."

Chen Xiaojing's words reminded Yang Feng of something.

The Bureau of Investigation's direct subordinate agency is a top-secret committee.

Given the magnitude of this incident, Jiang Guoping will likely face considerable pressure.

Yang Feng looked at the sky.

There are no stars today, only pitch blackness, and the moon hiding behind the clouds.

"Well, we'll head up now. Come find us later. The Investigation Bureau is so busy right now, they're really short-staffed."

Chen Xiaojing and Wei Yang still have things to do.

After greeting Yang Feng, he headed upstairs.

Yang Feng waved to them and continued sitting there alone.

He suddenly didn't want to go inside.

A while passed.

A soft footstep sounded behind him.

"Are you just standing there daydreaming?"

Murong Wan's gentle voice drifted over slowly.

Yang Feng looked up at the top of his head and saw Murong Wan looking at him.

"You're finally back?"

Yang Feng's helpless expression.

Murong Wan sat down beside her, smiling as she said, "If I come back too early, won't it affect your plans?"

"We're planning to go check out the ruins of Chaos later, do you want to come along?"

"Well, I'm free anyway, so it might be good to go and take a look."

Murong Wan agreed, but then said, "But you're here to see Director Jiang, aren't you?"

"Hmm, but Jiang Guoping doesn't seem to be here?"

"He's probably being lectured."

"Being lectured?"

Yang Feng was a little strange.

Murong Wan shrugged and said, "Director Jiang seems a bit angry this time."

"What do you mean?"

"He stripped all the members of the Mountain and River Organization who had already decided to join him of their spiritual powers."

"This doesn't seem like his usual style."

Yang Feng was somewhat surprised to hear this.

After all, this incident involves a very wide range of people.

Jiang Guoping has ruined countless lives this time.

"There are at least nearly a thousand people who have gone from ancient martial arts practitioners to ordinary people, and many of them are still at the top level, such as the people from the Yan tribe."

Murong Wan continued, "Besides that, more than a thousand people were imprisoned."

"Jiang Guoping did this probably because there were just too many people, and he could only resort to such a simple and violent method to solve the problem."

Yang Feng could understand Jiang Guoping.

The Bureau of Investigation has such a large number of traitors.

Most of these people were even involved in the impending campaign to overthrow the Bureau of Investigation.

If Yang Feng and Jiang Guoping hadn't acted first, it's hard to say what the Investigation Bureau would be like now.

“It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to sentence all of these people to death.”

Yang Feng said.

Murong Wan nodded and said, "However, this does not conform to the investigation bureau's trial procedures; it was Director Jiang's own decision."

"He must have realized something was wrong, so he wasn't given enough time."

Yang Feng then asked, "Did he have any plans for today?"

"He sent people to ancient martial arts academies in various places, presumably to select people who could enter the Investigation Bureau, and then it seems that he wants to reorganize many departments."

Murong Wan sighed and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, the Investigation Bureau will probably downsize and then change its targets accordingly."

"Hmm, that's one way. After all, it's not easy to replace so many people who have suddenly been lost."

Yang Feng was thoughtful.

Murong Wan didn't continue on that topic, but instead asked, "So, are you going to wait here for Director Jiang to return, or shall we set off directly?"

"Let's go to the ruins first and then talk about it."

A flicker appeared in Yang Feng's eyes.

In truth, Yang Feng harbored a vague sense of unease and some doubts.

For example, why did Sima Shan insist on launching the Black and White Plan at this time...?
