Chen Hui glanced at him.

"Then go ahead and do it, I'm not going to!"

Min Tun's face immediately darkened. He glanced at him and asked sharply.

"Hey Chen, what do you mean? What do you mean you're not going to do anything? This is your godfather's order! Are you going to disobey his orders?!"

Chen Hui did not respond to him and turned to walk towards the woods.

Suoyang and Dankun also looked at him warily. They exchanged glances and then followed him.

"Brother Hui!"

Peng Ying quickly caught up.

"I told you, if you want to do it, do it yourselves. I'm not doing it. You should know what the consequences will be if you kill them!"

Upon hearing this, Dan Kun and the others were stunned, their brows furrowing slightly.

These are hostages kidnapped from within the Dragon Kingdom. If they are all slaughtered, the Dragon Kingdom will surely be furious.

China is no ordinary country. If the news leaks out and the Chinese government puts pressure on the Northern Shan State to hand over the murderer, they may not be safe even if they hide in the Northern Shan State.

They all had this concern and didn't want to take the plunge.

"Brother Hui, but if we disobey our godfather's orders, we won't have a good ending when we go back!"

Chen Hui looked at Peng Ying, stepped forward, and stared at him.

"Then go ahead and go. Can we afford the consequences?"

"Saikan and his gang have gone to such great lengths to try and exchange these hostages for Sheng Min. If anything happens to these hostages, what do you think Saikan and his gang will do? They'll definitely go crazy!"

"Do you really think we've covered our tracks perfectly? Or do you think Saikan and his gang are idiots? If something happens to these hostages, their first suspect will definitely be General Peng!"

"Don't forget, we are all part of the Huangguo Army, and Sheng Min is our commander. If Saikan and his gang use this as an excuse to cause trouble, saying that we don't want our commander to come out, do you think General Peng would hand us over to shut them up?"

"This is a game of strategy; we are all pawns, and can be sacrificed at any time!"

Upon hearing this, Min Tun and the others fell silent, lost in thought.

They all knew Peng Jiahao very well. If they were pushed to this point, he would definitely hand them over and let Saikan and his gang deal with them. They wouldn't even know how they died.

"Without the protection of the Huangguo Army, the Shan State government will definitely exert pressure, just as the Chinese government will. Do you think the Huangguo Army's leadership will go to war with the government army for the sake of a few of us?"

For a moment, Min Tun and the others looked extremely ugly, standing there stunned and at a loss. They all knew in their hearts that what Chen Hui said was true.

After a long silence, Dan Kun looked at him with a furrowed brow.

"Then what do you suggest we do?"

Chen Hui looked at him.

"Move these hostages away and have them hidden. This way, there's room for maneuver, and it's one of our trump cards!"

Min Tun sneered.

"Easier said than done. Do you think Godfather wouldn't know about something this big? He'll find out sooner or later. Once he discovers we lied to him, our fate will be pretty much the same!"

"Besides, we've done so much for our godfather over the years, I believe he wouldn't be so heartless!"

Chen Hui sneered.

"Whether he could be so heartless or not, I think you know better than I do, after all, you've been by his side for so many years!"

"······"

Upon hearing this, Min Tun and the others fell silent again, clearly indicating that Peng Jiahao would do just that.

"As for the discovery you mentioned, we had already left by then. With these hostages, we have leverage. We can contact Saikan and return the hostages to them. We will definitely guarantee our safety."

"We could even use these hostages to negotiate with the Chinese government in exchange for a pardon!"

They helped the Dragon Kingdom rescue so many hostages, so getting a pardon shouldn't be a problem. We can also discuss other conditions.

Min Tun's eyes suddenly flashed with a fierce light, and he raised the gun in his hand, aiming it at Chen Hui's head.

"You want us to betray our godfather? And you want to send these hostages back to China? Are you a spy?"

Chen Hui couldn't help but sigh inwardly, thinking that Min Tun was really clever enough to have guessed his identity.

"You think I'm an undercover agent?"

"What else could you be but an undercover agent? You want to send these hostages back to China, and you want to go back to China yourself. What else could you be but an undercover agent?"

"I am a citizen of China, of course I want to find a way back to China. As for you, you can do whatever you want. Or, you can try killing all these hostages!"

"Also, don't point a gun at me. This is the last time. If you dare point a gun at me again, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"Second brother!"

Dankun quickly went up and pressed the gun out of Mintun's hand.

"Where do you intend to move the hostages?"

After a moment of silence, Dan Kun asked.

"You should be the ones asking this. You've been in Aimo for so many years, don't you have any way to send these hostages to the border? Once we reach an agreement, we can send these hostages back to China even faster. With China's protection, they can't do anything to us."

After hearing this, everyone fell into deep thought, and Min Tun suddenly spoke up.

"I know a smuggler who arranges for people to cross the border illegally. He has places where people can be smuggled, so you can send people to him first."

"Where?"

"Yanglongzhai!"

"Alright, send these hostages over first!"

"I'll contact them right now!"

A sly glint flashed in Min Tun's eyes as he gave Dan Kun a wink.

"Let's go contact the people in Yanglongzhai."

The two turned and walked deeper into the woods. Min-tun took out his phone, ready to make a call.

Chen Hui watched the two figures disappear into the distance, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes. He snatched the gun from Peng Ying's hand, raised his own gun, aimed it at their backs, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

"Brother Hui!"

"Bang! Bang!"

Two shots rang out, and Min-tun suffered a bloody hole in his back, collapsing to the ground.

Dankun was also shot in the back, but the bullet was not fatal. His eyes were wide open, and he looked incredulous. He instinctively gripped the gun in his hand and turned around to prepare to return fire.

"Bang!"

Just as he turned around, another spray of blood erupted from his chest, and he lay on the ground, speechless.

Chen Hui quickly stepped forward, aimed at the two corpses, and pulled the trigger repeatedly until he confirmed that they had stopped breathing before stopping.

Peng Ying was completely stunned. It took her several seconds to come to her senses and then she quickly stepped forward.

"Brother Hui, what are you doing?"

"What am I doing? Look what Min-tun is trying to do!"

Upon hearing this, Peng Ying paused for a second, then went to Min Tun's body, squatted down, picked up his phone, and saw that the number he was about to dial was actually Peng Jiahao's number.

Is Min Tun going to inform Peng Jiahao?
