Chapter 1856 The Reason For His Disappearance

It was not hard to imagine that a disciple of Battle God Palace like "Railway Gun" Long Feijun did not have a good impression of Shen Yupeng. He was the disciple of a rich family, and he managed the secret police.

The former even believed that the latter was connected to the Blood Alliance and that many of the officers in the secret police might be Blood Alliance members who had not been exposed.

Therefore, any case that involved the Blood Alliance should never be handled by the secret police.

Instead, the secret police should be gathered in one place and monitored. Everyone would then have to undergo the strictest review and pass it. This was the most responsible approach for Dragon City's national security.

As for the Blood Alliance case, it could be handed over to Battle God Palace or the Red Dragon Army's internal affairs team to handle. After all, they represented the general public, and they were the team that was most loyal to Dragon City's civilization.

However, Shen Yupeng and the other wealthy-class disciples scoffed at such a ridiculous theory.

Shen Yupeng had warned Long Feijun that the adjudicator court was the last thing holding the nine cultivation families back. Even if there were some black sheep among the nine cultivation families, the best approach for the secret police would be to investigate things and impose sanctions.

Aside from the secret police, the nine cultivation families would never allow anyone to take their family members away for interrogation or punishment.

"Don't worry, the adjudicator court and the Blood Alliance have absolutely nothing to do with each other," Shen Yupeng said to Long Feijun.

"If the professionals of the adjudicator court committed a crime like the Blood Alliance, I guarantee that it would be done flawlessly. They would not leave any trace behind unlike amateurs such as you!"

They were currently not arguing about who should deal with the Blood Alliance.

Instead...

"I'm sorry, Vice President Shen, no one is allowed to leave this place before the matter is investigated thoroughly!" Long Feijun took half a step forward and said in a low and threatening tone.

Heat was already rippling from his fists. They were as fierce as railway guns, and he was proud of them.

To the secret police officers who had activated their enhanced vision, it was as if his fists were already on fire.

Shen Yupeng did not even blink as he faced the layers of heat waves from the two destructive "railway guns."

"Colonel Long, what's the point of this?" Shen Yupeng said indifferently.

"Even if you detain us here by force, the news will travel sooner or later. It won't be long before the entire Dragon City knows about Battle God Lei Zongchao's death."

"Master Lei is not dead. He's just missing!"

Long Feijun's eyes gleamed as he said, "Unless the murderer who killed Master Lei is here, who can be sure that Master Lei is dead?"

"Of course, I have faith in him too. At the very least, I sincerely hope that the Battle God is still alive."

Shen Yupeng paused for a moment and continued. "The problem is time. Earlier, the staff of the Ancient Ruins Research Center carefully scanned all the controllable and known areas in the ruins, but they didn't find any trace of the Battle God. The surveillance video also showed that he walked into the deepest part of the ruins, where highly unstable and unknown chaotic areas are. He did so without looking back.

"The explorers who enter the depths of the ancient ruins may not necessarily die an unnatural death. It's also possible that they may reappear in a deformed, deranged state years later.ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

"But that answer will not solve our current problem, Colonel Long. You and I both know that."

Long Feijun gritted his teeth so hard that sparks almost flew out.

He could not refute Shen Yupeng's words.

"I know that Battle God Palace has been very active recently. You're trying to use Battle God Lei Zongchao's name to establish your own power and show your strength in the military, politics, and business circles. The Battle God's mysterious disappearance at this time has struck you like lightning."

Shen Yupeng took advantage of the situation and continued. "However, now that things have come to this, it's useless no matter how angry you are. Calm down, and let's think about how we can deal with the aftermath. Believe me, our adjudicator court and Battle God Palace both hope to end the current chaos as soon as possible. We have a common interest in the matter of stabilizing Dragon City's overall situation."

"Cut the crap. Before I figure out how Master Lei went missing, I won't trust anyone, especially you people from wealthy families!

"The Blood Alliance's scheme has been exposed. They've dragged a lot of people from the noble families into this mess and dealt a heavy blow to the nine noble families.

"If all the children of the lower class unite under Battle God Lei Zongchao's banner at this time, we'll definitely be able to win more than half of the seats in the Survival Committee. We will then take advantage of the situation to formulate new, fairer, and more beneficial rules in the military, political, and business sectors.

"I'm sure that many of the rich and powerful don't want to see this happen.

pαndα`noνɐ1~сoМ "These people have forgotten their beliefs long ago, and they've also betrayed their vows. They only want to ride on the necks of the general public and rule Dragon City forever!

"Therefore, the extremists among them took advantage of the chaos and attacked Master Lei!"

"Colonel Long, is this an irresponsible speculation, or is it an accusation with real evidence?" Shen Yupeng was unmoved as he calmly asked.

"We are preparing to search for Master Lei and look for evidence."

Long Feijun said, "Right now, those who are impatient about spreading the news that 'the Battle God is dead' are the most suspicious!"

"Colonel Long, please calm down."

Shen Yupeng said, "The Battle God walked into the depths of the ancient ruins alone. I don't think that 'Dragon City's dignified and number one martial artist' could be threatened or manipulated by anyone.

"Just now, the specialists of the Ancient Ruins Research Center said that a mysterious force named the Ancient Ruins' Summon exists deep within the ruins. It sounds like ravings from billions of years ago or billions of lightyears away. It can lurk in the depths of human souls and echo for years or even decades. Eventually, it tempts explorers to crawl into the ruins and the twisted gaps in the rocks below. They will never return.

"Everyone knows that the Battle God is the explorer who has ventured into the ancient ruins the most.

"Perhaps, he heard the Ancient Ruins' Summon in his early exploration days, but he's been resisting the weird temptation with his extraordinary willpower.

"Now that the fire of his life is about to be burned out, his indestructible mental defense has started to collapse and disintegrate bit by bit.

"The Ancient Ruins' Summon probably gained the upper hand. It controlled his soul and made him choose the same destination as countless other explorers.

"Colonel Long, don't you think that's the most likely truth?"
