Chapter 174 - 163: One for One

Chapter 174: Chapter 163: One for OneGao Yi subdued Shaman, but Shaman refused to submit; he was tough and furious.

There were six bodyguards in the room. Gao Yi had killed three, leaving three remaining. All of Shaman’s bodyguards were armed, so the situation wasn’t clearly advantageous for either side.

However, if Gao Yi completely disregarded life and death, then the advantage could only be his.

Muhan’s bodyguard behind him drew his pistol. Smartly, he did not aim the gun at Gao Yi; instead, he grasped Mu Tianwen, pressing the pistol to the back of Mu Tianwen’s head.

"Come out!"

Two individuals wielding submachine guns operated their weapons and aimed at Gao Yi. In that instant, Gao Yi had overlapped with Shaman, preventing them from firing immediately, and by the time they could slowly aim at Gao Yi, he had already hidden behind Shaman.

Mu Tianwen, watching from the side, was flabbergasted but began to feel a surge of excitement after a moment of stupefaction.

"Put down the guns! Drop them! Do you want His Highness to die with us? All three of you, put down your guns!"

Mu Tianwen’s voice was shrill and urgent.

At this moment, it was necessary to bring in another person capable of taking charge. Since Shaman, who was being controlled, could no longer give orders, someone concerned with Shaman’s safety and with the authority to command had to step in.

Gao Yi’s right arm was around Shaman’s neck while his left hand

They actually dare to hit me?

Shaman almost didn’t believe that anyone would exchange their life for his, but now, he started to believe.

Shaman said in a deep voice, "Release Harold..."

It was done.

Gao Yi took a breath and whispered, "Order the airport to clear Harold’s private plane for takeoff. As soon as the plane lands, I’ll let you go back."

Shaman barked, "Impossible! I’ll never be coerced by you, I can’t be taken hostage, Abdulla! If they force me away..."

Gao Yi quickly strangled Shaman’s neck to prevent him from completing his sentence.

Abdulla swiftly picked up a submachine gun from the floor and gnashed his teeth at Gao Yi, "Let him go! Otherwise, let’s die together. You think you can kidnap His Highness and leave? Impossible!"

Shaman truly wasn’t afraid to die, and Abdulla indeed had the courage.

Abdulla roared, "Let His Highness speak! Otherwise, none of you will leave!"

The extent of their stubbornness truly exceeded Gao Yi’s expectations.

Gao Yi loosened his arm a bit, and Shaman gasped for air. Then he calmly stated, "If they try to take me away by force, just kill them and me together, then kill Harold’s entire family, everyone, everyone!"

After speaking, Shaman tilted his head slightly. Although he couldn’t see Gao Yi, he still spoke with a fierce tone, "You want to save Harold, I can let him leave, but if you think of taking me hostage, then you’re mistaken, I’d rather die! I will not let you take me away!"

Gao Yi didn’t quite believe Shaman truly wasn’t afraid to die. He forcefully lifted Shaman, who couldn’t breathe and was desperately kicking. There was a real unwillingness in his struggle.

Abdulla, eyes reddened, aimed the gun above Gao Yi’s head and pulled the trigger.

Multiple gunshots rang out, bullets flying over both Shaman’s and Gao Yi’s heads.

"Don’t push me," Abdulla’s voice trembled, "I’d rather kill His Highness than let you take him away!"

Gao Yi fell into contemplation, then whispered, "Go, release Harold, order the airport to allow the plane to take off."

After speaking, Gao Yi turned towards Feng Biao, "You two go directly to the airport, our people meeting Harold will also head there. Once you’re airborne and safe, I’ll release him."

There could be no further delays. Shaman’s stubbornness forced Gao Yi to compromise.

There could only be one ongoing threat to Shaman; this was the only way to make others leave.

Feng Biao looked at Gao Yi in amazement.

Gao Yi spoke very helplessly, "Why are you staring? Go on!"

Mu Tianwen moved forward, wanting to say something but hesitated. Gao Yi took out his phone, placed it on the desk in front of him, and whispered to Feng Biao, "Take this phone. Once you’re safe, call me on another number."

Shaman was just gasping for air. He turned to Abdulla and said, "Go, release Harold, watch them. If you don’t get my call, kill them all at the airport, spare no one. I might die, but nothing will happen to you. But if you let them take me out of this room, I’ll kill your entire family!"

Gao Yi shouted at Feng Biao, "Aren’t you leaving yet?"

"Not leaving!"

Feng Biao aimed the gun at Shaman’s head and whispered, "Boss, staying means death."

"Do I need your reminder?" Gao Yi was furious, as Shaman’s stubbornness forced him to sacrifice himself. But what else could he do if Feng Biao wouldn’t stay?

He still didn’t quite trust Feng Biao. If Feng Biao chickened out, they’d all be done for.

Gao Yi knew he wouldn’t chicken out, so he had to stay himself.

"I’ve never seen a boss stay behind and let his employees go first, haha..."

Seemingly moved by an unknown sentiment, Feng Biao chuckled and then said to Gao Yi, "You go. Take everyone and leave. You trust me, and you’re not wrong."

Gao Yi couldn’t help but glance sideways at Feng Biao.

Feng Biao put his arm around Shaman’s neck and said to Abdulla, "Everyone out. I won’t kill him. No one is allowed to stay in this room. Take all the guns out, let’s make it simple."

Gao Yi was extremely surprised. "You..."

Feng Biao smiled, "Are you trying to waste time here, or do you want to hurry and lead people away? I’m definitely not leaving, so save your breath. We’re not in a movie, don’t get sentimental."

Gao Yi clenched his teeth and said to Mu Tianwen, "Let’s go!"

Abdulla opened the door, shouting fiercely, "No one is allowed in, you, come with me!"

Gao Yi left with Mu Tianwen. The corridor was now crowded with at least a hundred people, completely blocking the long hallway.

Gao Yi suddenly turned back and shouted at Feng Biao, who was still inside the door, "Wait for me; I’ll come to rescue you!"

Then, under the angry stares of a hundred people, Gao Yi walked through the crowd with his head held high, pulling Mu Tianwen along.
