"Boss, the Dragon Society president has opened the file and made a call to a Throne-level figure."
Jiang Hei reported the information he had obtained to Su Yang truthfully.
Su Yang was lying in the room, gazing at the underwater scenery outside the window. Upon hearing this, he curled his lips and said, "I know. You've worked hard, go rest."
As Jiang Hei was about to leave after hearing Su Yang's words, a signal came through the computer.
The seabed was not like the surface, and they had already left international waters. Moreover, all signals on Su Yang's Yangwei ship were isolated from the outside world. Therefore, for any external signal to come through at this time, it had to be approved by Jiang Hei's computer first.
"Boss, there's a call from Kyoto, should we take it?" Jiang Hei asked Su Yang.
Su Yang looked at Jiang Hei and said, "Is it Shangguan Qianji? He probably knows about the Dragon Society's news by now. However, since the Dragon Society president called a Throne-level person, perhaps he doesn't know what's happening at the moment."
Hearing Su Yang's words, Jiang Hei's fingers moved a few times on the keyboard, and he confirmed the signal's origin.
"The signal is from Shangguan Qianji's residence, boss, should we connect it?"
Su Yang smiled faintly and said, "Connect it. I'm quite bored anyway, it'll be good to chat with him."
Upon receiving Su Yang's instructions, Jiang Hei immediately connected the call.
Shangguan Qianji was also aware of Su Yang's situation and had been waiting for Su Yang to answer the call.
After a while, Su Yang's voice finally came from the other end of the line.
"Hello?" Su Yang's lazy voice inquired, "What is it now?"
Shangguan Qianji pursed his lips and directly asked Su Yang, "Su Yang, what is the method you mentioned before? What action has the higher-ups taken?"
Su Yang chuckled upon hearing this and said, "In about two or three days, you should know. Why are you so anxious?"
Su Yang spoke with a lighthearted tone, but Shangguan Qianji was truly at a loss for words. He really couldn't wait.
"Boss Su, since you know about this matter, please be merciful and tell me first to reassure me. We still have to wait two or three days. Who can wait that long?
And who knows what variables might arise within these two or three days?"
"Didn't I already tell you? Even if there are some variables in the process, the final result will not change. If you can't even wait for two or three days, what great things can you achieve?"
Su Yang's tone carried a hint of amusement as he spoke. Shangguan Qianji felt a surge of anger but couldn't express it.
Because he knew in his heart that even if he got angry with Su Yang, he didn't have the leverage to do so at this moment.
"Boss Su... please be merciful and tell me. With the Dragon Society and the Throne involved, it feels like a storm is brewing. If I knew some details, I could make some preparations."
Su Yang actually thought about it and decided that it was indeed better to tell Shangguan Qianji now. Informing Shangguan Qianji would allow him to make some preparations.
Preparations for an investigation, or if Shangguan Zhongtang later found out about the situation here, he would definitely call Shangguan Qianji. If Shangguan Qianji knew nothing then, the situation would be somewhat unfavorable.
"Do you know how many wicked things your father has done over the years?"
As Su Yang spoke, Shangguan Qianji was taken aback and replied, "Boss Su, you also know that over the years, Shangguan Zhongtang has never treated me as his son. I know nothing about the Shangguan family's affairs.
Let alone Shangguan Zhongtang's own matters."
Shangguan Qianji paused and then mused, "But didn't Shangguan Zhongtang always do charity work in Longguo all these years? Was that charity fake? Or was he laundering money?"
Su Yang chuckled at this and said, "Shangguan Qianji, oh Shangguan Qianji, you are truly naive. Don't blame me for speaking bluntly, with your kind of wit, it's no wonder you couldn't compete with that dead ghost Shangguan Yi all these years.
However, this is also because you haven't had much contact with Shangguan Zhongtang before. But it's good that Shangguan Zhongtang never treated you as his own son and didn't tell you anything, which is why you have this opportunity now."
"Opportunity?" Shangguan Qianji was startled, "What opportunity?"
"An opportunity for you to turn the tables and become the master," Su Yang said with a faint smile. "Shangguan Zhongtang is currently heading to Sangguo. The news I've passed to the Dragon Society is about the dozens of transactions between Shangguan Zhongtang and the Sangguo assassination organization, the Assassination Hall, over the past twenty years.
I believe you are a smart person, so you should understand what's going on when I say this, right?"
After finishing speaking, Su Yang didn't rush to hang up the phone. He waited to hear Shangguan Qianji's reaction.
As expected, upon hearing Su Yang's words, Shangguan Qianji froze on the spot. For at least five minutes, he remained silent.
Su Yang, meanwhile, watched the underwater world outside the window and didn't say anything to Shangguan Qianji.
Shangguan Qianji stood there, his mind completely blank.
Sangguo... Assassination organization...
These words entering Shangguan Qianji's ears rendered him momentarily unable to react.
After a long pause, Shangguan Qianji slowly recovered.
"Contact with Sangguo for over twenty years... coupled with it being an assassination organization. During his elections over the years, strong competitors always disappeared inexplicably...
And now Shangguan Zhongtang is heading to Sangguo..."
Shangguan Qianji murmured, and his scalp suddenly tingled.
He suddenly couldn't imagine how powerful the person on the other end of the phone was.
Su Yang's decisions left Shangguan Qianji utterly impressed.
Not only were Su Yang's decisions shocking to Shangguan Qianji, but Shangguan Zhongtang's actions over the years also left him completely stunned.
Shangguan Zhongtang was a proud citizen of Longguo. Shangguan Qianji had never imagined that Shangguan Zhongtang would have contact with people from Sangguo.
This was not just a capital offense.
This was a crime deserving utter annihilation!
