Retired for A Hundred Years: Re-Employment for the Apocalypse Bigshot!-Chapter 491 - 486: I Will Discipline Them Personally
The room suddenly became quiet, and the child at the opposite table watched the two people called by Ye Tong with a calm gaze.
Ji Ning obviously felt many malicious spiritual probes around.
These attendants with sacred faces didn’t have particularly clean hearts either.
She pretended not to notice and stood up with Huang Ying, preparing to approach Ye Tong.
But a small piece of green leaf was quickly slipped into her hand by someone.
Ji Ning glanced swiftly at the Wood Element Investigator pretending to pick up a fork and clenched the green leaf in her palm.
Ye Tong led them to a green lawn, which was wide open without any obstructions in sight.
One could clearly see the mirror-like calm lake and lush trees not far away.
A few attendants followed behind the three, seemingly serving them, but actually monitoring them.
Even Su Qiangwei, played by Ye Tong, was within the surveillance range.
"You Le, isn’t it nice here?" Ye Tong began acting flamboyantly.
Ji Ning deliberately spoke with caution: "Why are you in Sister Xiaotong’s body? Where is Sister Xiaotong?"
Ye Tong’s face carried a world-weary compassion: "She has already received eternal life."
"What eternal life?"
"Just like me, we’ve both been reborn." Ye Tong’s smile bore a touch of sacredness and coldness.
Ji Ning saw Ye Tong’s intentions and immediately clenched her fist and punched her beautiful face hard.
She seemed not to hold back but controlled her strength.
"Give Sister Xiaotong back—"
Ji Ning’s speed was too fast for the attendants to react, and when they did, Ji Ning was already straddling Ye Tong, hitting her.
"Oh my God, what are you doing?"
"Stop it—"
Several spiritual forces suddenly assaulted her brain. Ji Ning seemed unable to move as if controlled by them, but she marked their spiritual powers with her own and countered the control.
From a distance, she and Huang Ying looked like they were being pinned to the ground by the attendants, successfully subdued.
Ye Tong was slowly helped up by a female attendant and took a white silk scarf to wipe the blood from her lip, her eyes cold as frost, "Take the two of them to the dungeon, I want to personally discipline them."
"Yes—"
***
As cozy as the white castle was, the dungeon below was equally cold and damp.
The oppressive environment carried a foul stench of blood, making anyone who entered feel their scalp tingle.
Ye Tong and the attendants had changed into pitch-black robes, walking into the dungeon with indifferent expressions.
There was no glaring light here, only dim ground lamps.
When the primitive bonfire was lit, the dungeon showed its real form.
"You all go out." Ye Tong said coldly, holding a spiked whip.
The black-robed people behind her immediately left in order, closing the dungeon door.
Only after they departed did Ye Tong’s expression change; she was about to drop the whip when Ji Ning suddenly signaled her to stop, her eyes looking outside, her black pupils becoming deeper.
The immense spiritual power made the black-robed people outside become dazed, losing themselves in their own world.
[All set.] Ji Ning gestured.
Ye Tong quickly jogged over, nervously signaling to the two with hand signs.
This was to prevent her Smart Brain from overhearing, so they trained in sign language beforehand.
[Are you alright? Did they harm you?]
The two freed themselves from the chains and jumped down from the torture platform.
They also used sign language: [We’re fine.]
Ye Tong patted her chest, visibly relieved.
[I’ve observed that there are no cameras in this dungeon. Here’s the brief: This is where the Ji Family Army cultivates Eternal Life Sect members. Su Qiangwei’s main job is similar to those of the Spiritual Ability Users, brainwashing these members for absolute loyalty, ultimately sacrificing for the Eternal Life Sect.
Normally, you’d stay here for three months before being transferred to the West Continent or other places. Some are used as hosts, others are trained as assassins. But now the Temporary Leader commands that all children be sent to the West Continent as hosts within a month. So they will increase spiritual control and give you drugs, you must be careful.]
After hearing her report, Ji Ning used sign language again: [What’s the life like here?]
Ye Tong looked pitiable.
[Sister Ning, Instructor Huang, if you hadn’t come, I would have been corrupted by wealth. Rich people know how to enjoy. You wouldn’t believe it, they eat Emperor Sea Crab, which costs tens of thousands, just one bite, and then throw it away. It’s sheer wastefulness. Feel my chest, you can sense my heartache.]
Ji Ning smiled, feeling a lot more at ease.
[Let me check Su Qiangwei’s chip.]
Ye Tong quickly lowered her head to show her nape.
To avoid arousing suspicion, Su Qiangwei’s chip was affixed to Ye Tong’s scalp, covered with layers of specially treated biological skin.
It mimics the brain structure after a chip implant so Spiritual Ability Users wouldn’t easily notice it.
Ye Tong sacrificed her precious hair for this, shaved her head, and now her long hair was a wig glued to her scalp and biological skin.
Ye Tong scratched her scalp.
[Sometimes it’s itchy, I always want to scratch it.]
Ji Ning used her superpower to reinforce it, and while there, cured Ye Tong’s scalp rash.
[Continue pretending for a while longer, once we reach the West Continent, you immediately return to Hua Continent.]
Ye Tong’s chip was a timed bomb that could be discovered and detonated by the Smart Brain’s subprogram any time.
Ji Ning didn’t dare gamble, so she added the unknown substance that absorbed superpowers between the chip and scalp. She also infused it with a certain amount of spiritual power and Healing Ability.
Ye Tong made a heart gesture towards Ji Ning, then activated Su Qiangwei’s Smart Brain to broadcast. The sound of whipping screams immediately came out.
Ye Tong quickly got into role, saying coldly: "If you behave, I’ll spare you; otherwise, like the person in the video, don’t expect to walk out alive."
Huang Ying saw Ji Ning’s look and reluctantly cooperated: "What exactly do you plan to do? You’re a public figure. Do your fans know you’re this kind of person?"
"Children, don’t resist. You can get anything you want here. You can even..."
Before finishing, there was a door-kicking sound, and a sharp leaf flew towards Ye Tong’s nape.
Ji Ning’s expression changed, and she directly blocked the leaf.
The Wood Element Investigator who barged in thought Ji Ning was controlled and shot several leaves toward Ye Tong again, simultaneously saying to Huang Ying: "Li Mu, quickly drag your classmate out—"
He stealthily slipped the leaf to "You Le" and threw it onto the lawn, only to see a conflict with Ye Tong, followed by their removal.
He tried all he could to evade those people’s surveillance, searching all the way here.
He thought it was too late, that these two kids would suffer bodily harm.
Luckily, he made it...
Ji Ning helplessly blocked the leaves again, directly sealing his voice, Huang Ying hurriedly gestured him to silence, stopping his actions.
Ye Tong glanced at him and the leaf stuck in the ground, her body shivering.
But she still maintained her persona, shouting: "Another unruly brat. Someone, hang them up for me. Let them down only when they submit!"
