?28: Chapter 28 Hijacking 28: Chapter 28 Hijacking Biyun Pavilion, Villa No.

    9.

    Ye Xuan leaned back in the sofa, with a red certificate laid out before him.

    As he flipped open the certificate, a dragon-shaped national emblem caught his eye, with a line of small text written on the document.

    Name: Ye Xuan.

    Rank: Army Colonel.

    Position: Guest Elder of the Earth Group of Wu’an Office.

    Looking at the certificate in front of him, Ye Xuan’s expression was calm, but he was somewhat surprised inside; he hadn’t expected Azure Dragon would arrange a colonel rank for him.

    It was well known that in Xia Country, military personnel held an extremely high status; they were seen as the protectors of the home and country, and were deeply respected by the people of Xia Country.

    The rank that Azure Dragon had bestowed upon him was loaded with significance.

    “Is this to have me serve the country?” Ye Xuan shook his head helplessly.

    Ye Xuan put the certificate away properly.

    The affairs of the Wu’an Office had been resolved, and he could now set off directly for the Capital City.

    At dinner time,

    Ye Xuan informed his mother that he would be stepping out for a while, at most he would be back in a month.

    Of course, Ye Xuan did not mention his trip to the Capital City, as he didn’t want his mother to worry.

    ...

    A Boeing 747 took off from Jiangnan Airport, headed directly towards the capital of Xia Country.

    In the first-class cabin,

    Ye Xuan closed his eyes to rest, giving off a serene and tranquil aura.

    Originally, according to Ye Xuan’s plans, he could have traveled to the Capital City directly by flying there using his abilities, which would have been much faster than taking a plane.

    But Ye Xuan reconsidered and decided against it for two reasons: first, such an action might shock the world, and second, given the advancements in technology, if his presence was detected, it would undoubtedly lead to unnecessary trouble.

    When purchasing his plane ticket, a small incident occurred.

    Ye Xuan embarrassingly found that buying a plane ticket required an ID card, which he didn’t have since his had been canceled after being missing for four years; he was, in fact, undocumented.

    Suddenly, Ye Xuan remembered the certificate in his hand.

    He tried using it to buy a plane ticket, and what happened next made Ye Xuan realize just how powerful the document he held was.

    Although the ticket agent had never seen the type of certificate Ye Xuan held, the clear inscription of “Army Colonel” on it made her take no chances.

    She reported directly to her immediate supervisor.

    When the airport leadership confirmed the certificate was authentic, they grew anxious and even saluted Ye Xuan, greeting him with “Good day, Commander.” They personally handled his boarding procedures and arranged for him to be seated in first-class.

    Reflecting on this incident, Ye Xuan couldn’t help but marvel at the considerable authority that the certificate Azure Dragon had given him evidently carried.

    “Sir, would you like something to drink?”

    Just as Ye Xuan was resting with his eyes closed, the gentle voice of a flight attendant sounded in his ears.

    “Thank you, but no,” Ye Xuan said without opening his eyes, politely declining.

    “If you need anything, please call on me.

    I will be at your service for this flight,” the flight attendant said courteously before moving away from Ye Xuan’s side.

    At this moment!

    In the first-class cabin, which had four seats, aside from where Ye Xuan was sitting, there were two men and one woman.

    As they observed this scene, it made them look towards Ye Xuan with a hint of curiosity.

    One should know, their flight was with the national airline, and having a flight attendant dedicated to serving one person alone meant that Ye Xuan was clearly not an ordinary passenger; it was certain he held an important position in Xia Country.

    “My name is Zhang Ye, Chairman of Pasture Group.

    May I ask what esteemed position this gentleman holds?” A middle-aged bald man smiled and spoke, clearly trying to get acquainted with Ye Xuan.

    Unfortunately, Ye Xuan did not respond to the man’s greeting at all, which caused the bald man to turn red with embarrassment.

    He then gave a cold huff and stopped making a fool of himself.

    Seeing this scene unfold, the other two passengers naturally did not want to repeat the mistake, and silence once again descended upon the first-class cabin.

    The plane weaved through the clouds, with three hours remaining until it was due to arrive at the capital’s airport.

    Ye Xuan, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them, a dark shadow passing through his gaze.

    “Mr.

    Ye...

    Mr.

    Ye...

    we are currently experiencing an emergency situation.

    Please, come with me to the cockpit for safety.” The door to first class swung open, revealing a flight attendant with a pale face.

    She quickly locked the door from the inside before rushing over to Ye Xuan with an anxious plea.

    “What’s the matter?”

    Before Ye Xuan could react, the bald man had already begun to panic.

    Everyone who flew knew that if there was a malfunction with the plane, it was never a trivial matter.

    Even though the flight attendant tried her best not to show fear, the few experienced individuals present could easily see the panic in her eyes.

    Unfortunately, the flight attendant did not respond to the bald man’s question.

    Instead, she took hold of Ye Xuan’s arm and urgently said, “Mr.

    Ye, please hurry into the cockpit with me.”

    Ye Xuan stood unshaken, speaking calmly, “If they want to hijack the plane, they are certainly prepared for it.

    Even if we go into the cockpit, it won’t stop them.”

    “What?”

    “Hijack?”

    “Are you joking?”

    As soon as Ye Xuan’s words ceased, the other three passengers all cried out in alarm, and the flight attendant was left confused, failing to understand how Ye Xuan had figured out what was happening.

    Bang, bang, bang!

    While everyone was shocked, a series of thuds came from outside the cabin door, indicating someone was trying to break into first class.

    Bang!

    With a loud noise, the door was forced open, revealing two foreign men with ivory-handled pistols, looking at Ye Xuan and the others with a menacing grin.

    “This...

    this...”

    Seeing this scene, the bald man cried out in horror and slumped back into his seat, his eyes filled with immense fear.

    “Ladies and gentlemen, good morning.” One of the foreign men spoke fluently in Xia Country’s language, stepping into the first-class cabin holding the ivory-handled pistol, madness flickering in his eyes.

    “No...

    don’t kill me...

    I have money...

    I have lots of money...” The bald man stammered out.

    “Oh, for God’s sake, this guy is too noisy.

    Your devoted believer here will send him to meet You right now.” The foreign man shrugged his shoulders, raised the ivory-handled pistol, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

    Bang!

    Flames spurted, the bullet was fired, and the bald man was shot dead on the spot, with a great deal of blood flowing from the center of his forehead, throwing the entire first-class cabin instantly into panic.

    The horror of this scene left the flight attendant collapsed on the ground, while the other two first-class passengers clutched their mouths tightly, not daring to make a sound, their eyes filled with fear as they watched the foreign man.

    “Oh, for God’s sake, Jack, you’ve gone and killed someone again.” Another foreign man entered the first-class cabin, holding his forehead and complaining.

    “NONONO, Mirel, you just don’t appreciate art.

    Don’t you know that killing is a great thing?”

    “When the bullet pierces the victim’s skull, that instant burst of blood is the ultimate splendor of life, a beautiful feeling that a brute like you wouldn’t understand.” Jack, intoxicated, breathed in the smell of blood filling the air, as if he truly relished it.
