Supreme Man

Chapter 23: One-on-One Duel


The crisis silently reappeared once again...

The physical condition of Code A was within Ye Hao's expectations; he hadn't died. In fact, the resilient life force of Code A allowed him to pull out a small gadget and snap a picture of Ye Hao. Ye Hao slightly tilted his head to symbolically dodge, knowing full well it couldn't be a weapon, but still a little precaution is necessary.

Moreover, after obtaining the ring, Ye Hao finally realized that many things were simply beyond Earth's current scientific explanations. Just because he could get advanced products from outer space didn't mean others couldn't. Ensuring safety above all else was the most important lesson, a classic mercenary habit of Ye Hao's: never relax until the enemy is entirely obliterated.

"Ha ha... Kid, I didn't expect you to be so deeply embedded, even silently eliminating so many of my comrades. You're done for..." Code A lay on the ground, raising his head with difficulty and spoke sinisterly to Ye Hao, the blood oozing from his head making his face even more grotesque.

"See this? This little gadget in my hand is a camera. I have already transmitted your image back to headquarters. Now you will face relentless pursuit from our organization! Haha," Code A laughed cruelly while lying on the ground, his eyes rolling upwards to look at Ye Hao, hoping to see some tinge of fear on his face.

Unfortunately, this was destined to disappoint him. Ye Hao's mind was certainly not shaken by such a petty threat. Ye Hao stood calmly, though breathing heavily, he was no longer as worried. The existing threats had been mostly cleared, and now all that was left was waiting for the handover at Peng City Airport!

However, at this moment, Qianqian's alert sounded in Ye Hao's mind: "Master, there's a disturbance in the first class hijackers." Even before Qianqian's voice fully trailed off, Ye Hao's body whisked through the left passage like an arrow...

"Whoosh!"

All people saw was Ye Hao's body leave a shadow streak, and the sound of his clothes fluttering wildly as he bolted at extraordinary speed. In their hearts, they could only sum up Ye Hao's condition with two words: "Super speed".

"What's going on? Why is he in such a hurry?" the crowd blocked at the cabin door made way in a bustle, their commotion catching the attention of Code I, prompting him to quickly dash towards Su Qing's side to avoid further trouble.

"Bang!"

The cabin door emitted a loud noise as Ye Hao forcefully crashed into it, causing the doors to swing open...

Su Qing, seeing Code I swiftly advancing in her direction, was struck with fear, secretly blaming herself for being careless at such a critical moment, even blaming Ye Hao, because at that moment she was wondering why Ye Hao would stand up, had she and Lin Ruyu misunderstood him before?

Considering the possibility of misunderstanding Ye Hao, and seeing Ye Hao boldly confronting enemy fire to save everyone on the plane made her feel he was utterly noble. Reflecting on her previous misunderstandings and the words she had spoken, how hurtful had they been to him?

"Don't come near..." Su Qing shouted loudly at Code I, putting her hands up defensively to prevent him from taking her hostage. But how could a rough and brutal character like Code I, a hijacker, be deterred by such actions?

Code I's left hand grabbed Su Qing and pulled her up...

Ye Hao was already nearing Su Qing's seat, and just as Code I was about to clasp his right hand on Su Qing's neck, Ye Hao leaped with one leg, his right leg whipping down on Code I's arm, temporarily pausing his hand from clutching Su Qing's neck.

At this moment, Su Qing also opened her eyes to look at the man in front of her, suddenly realizing that Ye Hao's presence seemed so towering, his entire being transformed tremendously. She used to loathe him, but now, staring at Ye Hao, she found him so charismatic and dazzling, as if he were the very man of her dreams. Would he save her now? Su Qing was overwhelmed with emotions.

Lin Ruyu also realized that Code I had taken Su Qing hostage, her frightened face turned pale as her heart pounded, and she shouted loudly, "Whoever you are, if you want money, just name your price, and I can get it for you, don't take my friend hostage, please, my father is very wealthy, let her go..."

Lin Ruyu was frazzled, seeing Su Qing taken hostage made her anxious, not simply due to familial connections, but because they were best friends, having grown up together with over a decade of shared memories.

Seeing Su Qing taken hostage naturally made her panic-stricken, and if Su Qing ended up hurt in any way, Lin Ruyu might never forgive herself for the rest of her life...

"Haha! Do I need money? What I want is your lives, do you understand what life means? It means crashing the entire plane into a mountain, boom, ensuring all of you accompany us to the grave, haha..." Code I believed that holding a hostage would definitely inhibit Ye Hao, as they thoroughly understood Huaxia's military traits, emphasizing the safety of hostages as paramount during rescue operations. If a soldier acted carelessly, ignoring hostage safety and directly attacking a hijacker, resulting in hostage harm, they would face a military court. All soldiers dreaded this eventuality.

This was Code I's confident bargaining chip upon taking Su Qing hostage. Little did he know that Ye Hao had received authorization from the National Security head Fang Zhongtian, ensuring the safety of everyone on board! Of course, Ye Hao held full responsibility for weighing the pros and cons in crucial moments.

In a dire situation, Ye Hao naturally had everyone's best interest in mind, prioritizing saving as many as possible, though unfair to individuals, but for the greater good, he had no choice but to make such decisions.

"Heh, do you really think that by taking a hostage, I will be at your mercy?" Ye Hao coolly laughed, though his mind raced with ways to rescue Su Qing.

Should he directly assault Code I to create chaos and free the hostage or rely on persuasion to make him relent and let go of his weapons?

But the notion of persuading Code I to drop his weapons was dismissed by Ye Hao immediately. Considering their armed state, they'd never surrender just because of a few words or even relinquish crime to embrace virtue for money and freedom.

Because they have an organization, their organization has brainwashed them to ensure loyalty. Even if you give him a parachute now, he won't run away since his partner has been captured by me.

"Haha! Hypocritical, do you dare to attack me while I'm holding a hostage?" Code-named I laughed loudly as if hearing a joke.

"No! You're wrong, I dare, but I can't bear to let such a beautiful, pretty girl see me being too bloody," Ye Hao said.

"Keep pretending, don't come any closer, or I'll kill him." While speaking, code-named I did not forget to observe the surroundings and noticed a few security guards on the plane trying to sneak up from behind. He spoke coldly.

After Ye Hao subdued the people in the outer cabin, those security guards also joined in ensuring the safety of the passengers. Now that Su Qing is taken hostage, they naturally cannot stand by. But after being warned by code-named I, they dared not act rashly.

"Actually, we could have a fair duel, isn't that better than taking a woman hostage?" Ye Hao suggested after thinking for a moment.

Code-named I looked at Ye Hao with bewilderment and asked, "What kind of fair duel?"

Ye Hao could tell by his expression that he was agitated. After all, even if he hijacked the entire plane, with himself around, code-named I could not act freely. To avoid this, code-named I naturally wanted to eliminate Ye Hao once and for all.

"Hehe, a one-on-one fight would be excellent," Ye Hao said with a smile. From the beginning until now, he had only showcased the first stage of National Martial Arts but used the second stage during the rescue, which code-named I might not be aware of.

Ye Hao was also curious to see how strong this code-named I was in the second stage of National Martial Arts and to see just how formidable his so-called organization was.

"Are you sure you want a one-on-one fight?" Code-named I asked, eyes gleaming with light, without realizing his fists were clenched tightly.

"Of course! Unless you're too scared," Ye Hao smiled.

"Would I be afraid of you?" Code-named I seemed provoked and then said, "I hope that during our one-on-one fight, others on the plane won't act rashly, or I'll drag a few down with me even if you kill me."

As code-named I spoke, he was extremely indifferent, as if the lives of everyone on the plane were mere ants before him, crushing them posed no pressure at all...

"Deal!" Ye Hao nodded and also turned to those behind him and said, "No one is to act rashly until I fall, you must stand your ground."

"Please, save her for me," Lin Ruyu at this moment rushed to Ye Hao's side, holding his arm, looking at him with a pitiful gaze.

Ye Hao, shaken by her tearful eyes, nodded and said with a tremble in his voice, "I'll do my best."

"Let's do it!"

After speaking, Ye Hao walked out, while Lin Ruyu watched him with hopeful eyes, hoping he could save Su Qing.

"Hehe... Little beauty, stand aside. Soon, I'll let you see how that brave boy meets his end," code-named I released Su Qing and rolled up the sleeves of his black suit.

Su Qing seemed still dazed, watching Ye Hao stand in the aisle of first class waiting for code-named I. She wondered, is this man doing all this to save her? Can he really beat this fierce hijacker?

In her heart, she silently cheered for him, hoping Ye Hao could rescue them all from the dire situation.

"Bang!"

"Thud, thud, thud!"

As Su Qing wondered why Ye Hao was taking the risk, they had already clashed fiercely with a punch, both stepping back three steps in unison.
