As all the passengers screamed in panic because of the gunshot, Yin Yue and the corpulent man looked at each other silently as if they were sizing up the other party.
On the other hand, Shen Xinya had to hold her hands to her mouth area to avoid screaming when she saw Yin Yue bleeding. She could not believe that a small bullet could hurt Yin Yue. Shen Xinya herself saw Yin Yue training and personally saw how a combat shotgun was completely ineffective against her. However, that same Yin Yue had just been wounded so easily that Shen Xinya found it hard to believe.
Aside from disbelief, Shen Xinya also worried about her. Although Yin Yue played the role of a bodyguard hired by her father and was also her manager in the entertainment world, after such a long time together, Shen Xinya really saw her as a big sister.
On the other hand, while everyone was frightened, Xie Feng narrowed his eyes while looking at the glow that covered the corpulent man's chest area. Although it was only a fist-sized opening, Xie Feng was sure that it was some kind of armor.
But... Armor that could withstand such a powerful strike? Xie Feng knew nothing about it. Besides, that armor was good enough to withstand some of the impact of the hit because even though the big man definitely suffered from Yin Yue's punch, he was still able to stand up as if nothing had happened.
As for the small weapon, Xie Feng ignored it completely. Although that weapon looked very powerful, what Xie Feng was most proud of was not his attack ability, it was his defense! Let alone a weapon like that, Xie Feng was completely sure that unless a nuclear bomb fell on his head, there was no known weapon in the world that could hurt him.
As for a nuclear bomb... As long as Xie Feng prevented it from reaching him, it was just a useless missile.
With an interested look, Xie Feng decided to wait a bit longer and see how the situation developed since although Yin Yue was bleeding, it was really just a skin wound; the bullet had barely touched her flesh. Therefore, while preparing to help Yin Yue if necessary, Xie Feng concentrated on protecting the two girls who were on their way here.

-Airplane captain's cockpit.
After taking control of flight F-98199 and sending the signal indicating that the first target had been successfully completed, Scarface continued piloting the plane to the prearranged destination.
However, while Scarface and the woman disguised as a stewardess at his side were devotedly piloting the plane, they both began to hear gunshots.
The first shot was fired as soon as the plan started, but that was to be expected by everyone, as it was often necessary to punish one to warn the others. However, the problem was the next shots.
Properly said, after one shot, everything should be simpler since there should be no suicides on the plane who decide to play the hero and risk their lives stupidly. But after the first shot, there was a second one and that second shot clearly sounded closer than the previous one.
"Why are those idiots shooting so much back there?" Scarface asked.
The woman disguised as a stewardess didn't seem concerned as she casually replied:
"The second shot came from the business area. You also know that idiot Mo Li hates millionaires. He probably couldn't contain himself and killed some random unfortunate?"
The person the woman disguised as a stewardess referred to as Mo Li was the name of the corpulent man.
Having formed a group for some time, most of them already knew more or less what the others hated or disliked, so upon hearing the woman's reasoning, Scarface nodded.
However, for some reason Scarface felt something was wrong and frowned:
"Hey, that stupid Numero 7 where the hell is he? He still hasn't found that girl with the surname Gu?"
"That's impossible." The disguised woman shook her head without hesitation: "Number 7 was in first class pretending to be a passenger, he was only a few seats away from that little princess Gu."
"Then what the hell is he doing?"
Seeing that his companion still hadn't arrived, Scarface began to get upset.
Capturing Gu Qianxue was the main goal of this whole move. If something went wrong with Gu Qianxue's capture, then the rest of the plan could go to hell as there would be little point in continuing.
"Number 7 is quite responsible in his work..." The disguised woman also frowned and after thinking for a moment, she stood up.
"Where are you going?" Scarface asked.
"I'm going to check that everything is okay." Replied the woman, realizing that they could not be negligent.
Scarface nodded without saying a word and continued piloting the plane.
After sending a message on a private channel, the signal inside the plane was completely cut off by them. As a result, the plane would be completely isolated.
The only problem was that, in order to avoid situations where Gu Qianxue has equipment that allows her to communicate with the outside, they used a high-tech device that forced all cell phones and communication devices to shut down.
After all, Gu Qianxue was Gu Pojun's daughter, so it would not be strange for her to have such devices.
They simply could not afford to fail, because this was probably the only chance to achieve their goal of hitting the government in the face.

-First class area / Near to the Business area.
Xie Yao, with a determined look, took Gu Qianxue's hand and advanced slowly along the passageway. For every step she took, she made sure to look carefully at the passengers. After all, a 'passenger' tried to make a move against them a few seconds ago, it was quite likely that the previous man had companions among the passengers.
*Bang!*
Hearing a loud gunshot nearby, Gu Qianxue involuntarily tightened her grip on Xie Yao's hand and asked worriedly:
"Xie Yao, Xie Feng will be okay right?" She asked ingenuously.
Hearing her question, Xie Yao smiled warmly. Even in a situation where she was the primary target and they were secondary targets, Gu Qianxue was still worried about Xie Feng's safety rather than her own after hearing a gunshot.
"Don't worry, silly girl." Xie Yao gently patted Gu Qianxue's dark hair and, with a proud smile, smiled, "No matter how many times these people shoot, no matter how many they are, and no matter how strong their weapons are... To him, they are all just small fries!"
"Hehehe..."
"You two, stay right where you are!"
As they slowly walked, a woman's angry voice caused Xie Yao and Gu Qianxue's footsteps to stop for a moment.
Looking over her shoulder, Xie Yao saw a woman dressed as a stewardess pointing a gun at her as she looked at them angrily.
Xie Yao, far from being scared, gave the disguised woman a sardonic smile and then ignored her. She continued to move forward slowly without worrying about anything else.
The woman disguised as a stewardess was furious!
When she left the captain's cockpit and went to the first class area, she found all the passengers trembling with panic. But the problem was that in between the seats, she found the corpse of Number 7!
The body of her teammate was in such a bad condition that it took her a while to recover from the shock. The seven holes in Numero 7's head were bleeding like a fountain of water, and even after he was dead, the blood kept flowing out as if it would never stop!
After realizing that something must have gone wrong, the woman disguised as a stewardess quickly ran to look for Gu Qianxue and, fortunately for her, found her.
However, the girl next to Gu Qianxue, far from obeying her, looked at her as if she was an idiot and then ignored her!
"You are brave, little beauty..." The woman disguised as a stewardess smiled cruelly and pointed her gun at the helpless Xie Yao: "Too bad you can only die!"
*Bang!*
After the woman triggered, Xie Yao's footsteps stopped.
Everyone closed their eyes and hid.
After a moment of silence, Xie Yao said in a soft voice:
"Too bad for you, old granny."
Xie Yao's voice was the only thing that could be heard in the area.
Xie Yao's black hair fluttered gently, as if a gust of wind was gently caressing her. Behind her, an inch away, a dark blue bullet with a spiky tip had been completely stopped by an invisible barrier.
"I just hope you don't have a family... Because it will be sad for them." Xie Yao murmured. Then, ignoring everyone's look of incredulity, she continued to move forward. She did not look back.
The mouth of the woman dressed as a stewardess opened and closed as if she wanted to say something, but what was happening in front of her made her brain unable to process reality.
The bullet that had stopped in midair, as if guided by an invisible hand, circled back and shot out at a speed more terrifying than the previous one towards the woman disguised as a stewardess!
Without even knowing what had happened, the bullet pierced the woman's chest, and only when she felt a burning pain in her body, she looked down.
Seeing the fist-sized hole, she saw that her heart was completely gone.
The woman looked at Xie Yao's back for a second before her eyes lost their vital sparkle and she fell to the floor, dying unjustly.
Xie Yao's words stayed engraved in her head until the last second.
