This was nothing short of a slap in the face, a poke at his pride; there was no way he could swallow this affront.
“Big Brother, don’t be too impulsive, prioritize safety,” one advised.
The military strategist had always put Dong Zhejun’s interests first, constantly watching his back and guarding him no matter what.
“Enough talk, I must catch Qin Yuan.”
He was certain that as long as he followed the people ahead, he would definitely catch Qin Yuan, and without hesitation, he charged forward once again.
The strategist was really at his wit’s end, realizing that Big Brother was completely tunnel-visioned, but he never expected him to be as impulsive as he had been in the past.
He sighed softly, with no choice but to follow them.
They had been chasing until the sky began to show the first light of dawn, and when He Chenguang looked back, he could no longer hear any gunfire or see the figures of Dong Zhejun and his men.
“It looks like we’ve shaken them off.”
He murmured, and at that moment, he also let out a sigh of relief after having run all night, he was already utterly exhausted.
If it weren’t for the fact that each Special Forces Member had undergone special training, this night would certainly have skinned them alive.
“Everyone, take a break, we will regroup with the captain in an hour,” He Chenguang ordered as he picked up his walkie-talkie.
“Received.”
“Received.”
“Make sure to conceal your tracks, report immediately if you spot the enemy,” he continued, his mind still uneasy about the situation with Dong Zhejun’s group and so he reminded them again.
The affirmative replies came through the walkie-talkie once more.

He Chenguang then swiftly leapt up and climbed a tree, perching himself on a high branch to watch dawn break in the distance.
He knew that Qin Yuan and his group must already be in the county town by now, and what might happen next was anyone’s guess.
At this moment, He Chenguang was also pondering over Green Snake and Yang Weiwei’s safety and situation.
Only if everyone could cooperate, then they could truly reunite, and once everyone was together, they could rejoin the rest of the squad.
After roughly half an hour’s rest, with everyone having refueled and taken a short break, He Chenguang once again issued orders.
“All members, prepare to move out,” he commanded.
“Understood.”
“We’re moving out so soon?”
The brief rest had barely given them a chance to catch their breath, it was no wonder some of the members were grumbling.
“Stop complaining and start running, do you want to wait for Dong Zhejun to show up?”
Since they had already escaped the enemy’s encirclement, the mood allowed for more relaxed conversation, which is why He Chenguang spoke to them in such a way.
Listening to the chat between team members over the walkie-talkie, everyone began to relax as they headed towards the county town.
Qin Yuan, having just descended the mountain with two others, looked up to see the sky beginning to brighten at the edge of the horizon.
The ink-blue sky of moments ago was slowly fading as the sun began its ascent.
“We’re finally safe.”
Gazing down the road at the foot of the mountain, Qin Yuan murmured, knowing that leaving this place would mean safety.
Old Man Yang was also exhausted, feeling dizzy and seeing stars as he relaxed at the sight of the distant road.
He had endured the entire night, fearful of holding back the younger members.
“Experimentalist.”
“Elder, what’s the matter?”
Hearing the voice behind him, Qin Yuan turned to see Old Man Yang slumped and supported by two team members.
“What’s happened? What’s wrong?”
All their hopes were pinned on Old Man Yang; any illness or danger to him could jeopardize the whole plan.
Qin Yuan approached them with concern, and Old Man Yang was now lying on the ground.
After a thorough check, thankfully, his heart was still beating, though his breath was faint.
Having examined him, Qin Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and, looking at Gui Li, whose eyes were red and who seemed afraid to speak, he reassured her.
“Don’t worry, he’s just overly exhausted and has fallen asleep.”
Hearing this, Gui Li burst into tears, her soul nearly shattered by the night’s fear and running for their lives.
“You scared me to death; it’s good that Master is okay, it’s good.”
“Everyone, be aware, let’s make a simple stretcher and carry him away,” Qin Yuan instructed.
Now that they had entered the county town, as long as they could coordinate with the relevant authorities, they would surely be able to capture Dong Zhejun and his people.
“Yes, captain, I understand,” someone replied to Qin Yuan’s order, and soon they set to work, finding a rope and two wooden poles to make a simple stretcher to carry Old Man Yang into the county town.
In the morning, the county town bustled only with those making breakfast, and the streets were incredibly quiet.
