Retired for A Hundred Years: Re-Employment for the Apocalypse Bigshot!-Chapter 361 - 356: The Death of Joe Lane

The Sixteenth Rank Superpower User thought he misheard, raised his hand, and rubbed his ears, "What did you say? Say it again!"

Ji Ning sneered, "You’ve been deceived and treated as a fool for so long. Don’t you want revenge?"

The Sixteenth Rank Superpower User looked at her with vigilance, scrutinizing her, "Would you be so kind?"

"Suit yourself." Ji Ning opened the door and turned to leave.

The Sixteenth Rank Superpower User stared at the wide-open door, deeply immersed in self-doubt.

Does she have brain problems?

Letting a High-level Superpower User from the Outer Continent freely access the Jiuming Mountain Base?

Could there be some conspiracy?

The Sixteenth Rank Superpower User dared not move until Ji Ning’s impatient voice came from outside, "Hey, are you coming or not?"

The Sixteenth Rank Superpower User reflexively stood up, walked two steps, then stopped again, and finally went out.

He really didn’t want to go out, afraid Ji Ning would trap him, but he was very curious about what Ji Ning wanted to do?

Would the people at Jiuming Mountain Base really let her do this?

He walked out with suspicion, seeing Ji Ning as usual during the day, normally weaving through the patrol teams of base warriors, and they seemed not to see Ji Ning at all, showing no expression.

These people really have good discipline!

"N..." Before the sound came out, the Sixteenth Rank Superpower User felt his neck tighten as if someone was choking him, unable to make any sound. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

Not far away, Ji Ning glanced at him.

This simple control of others’ five senses is time-limited, the most feared is a third voice suddenly appearing, breaking her hypnosis.

A trace of astonishment flashed in the Sixteenth Rank Superpower User’s eyes, then he understood, and quickly followed Ji Ning with a shocked expression.

After they walked out of the encirclement of these base warriors, he finally spoke out in shock, "What exactly do you want to do?"

He never expected Ji Ning to sneak him out.

If discovered, both of them would face severe consequences.

Does this woman even know?

"Finish off Joe Lane!" Ji Ning said blandly.

Sixteenth Rank Superpower User: ...

"I have the relic of your clan chief."

"Where is it?"

Ji Ning looked at him meaningfully, "Make a deal?"

The Sixteenth Rank Superpower User had an unpleasant look but still nodded in agreement.

"You better keep your word!"

The two, relying on Ji Ning’s spiritual hypnosis, arrived unimpeded at the residence of the Jiazhou delegation.

Ji Ning knew the current Hua Continent officials had no substantial evidence proving Joe Lane was the mastermind behind the Jiuming Mountain incident, and as the sole witness, the Sixteenth Rank Superpower User would not reveal anything, avoiding international incidents.

He even claimed he reached the top of Jiuming Mountain by mistake to exonerate himself.

He even completely denied the collaborating Space Superpower User’s testimony, leaving Hua Continent officials unable to directly convict the two.

Even if she guessed all of Joe Lane’s plans, recorded his words with the Smart Brain, he could still exonerate himself using the excuse of being controlled and other rogue reasons.

And to avoid causing international conflict, Hua Continent officials would surely downplay the issue since these people didn’t succeed.

This was also Joe Lane’s cunning nature.

Now, Joe Lane and his team were only temporarily restricted from travel by the Jiuming Mountain Base, waiting for Jiazhou’s high-level officials to negotiate a "solution" with Hua Continent, after which they could swaggeringly leave Hua Continent.

However—

How could she let the mastermind leave her territory without any cost?

Ji Ning coldly watched Joe Lane being sneak attacked and successfully controlled by the Sixteenth Rank Superpower User.

She raised her hand, clenched her fist, and fiercely struck Joe Lane’s abdomen.

Dominant superpower entered his body like lightning, directly targeting the main meridian of Joe Lane’s superpower operation.

In intense pain, Joe Lane roared incredulously at the Sixteenth Rank Superpower User.

"Vic, you dare betray me!"

But the Sixteenth Rank Superpower User was obviously thicker-skinned than he imagined, directly shirking, "Sorry, dear Lane, I didn’t want to either, but she forced me to do this. I had no choice..."

"Vic, don’t forget our collaboration." Joe Lane’s already pale face turned even bloodless, dark red blood flowed down from the corner of his mouth.

The intense pain and destruction inside made him once want to faint.

But Ji Ning didn’t allow him to faint easily, using a small amount of treatment, just to torment him.

"Vic, you bastard... Ji Ning... you cunning woman... you will meet a terrible end..."

The Sixteenth Rank Superpower User showed an innocent expression, but the severity was no less than Ji Ning’s.

"Lane, my old friend, I didn’t want this either, but you dared to deceive me! Don’t you know I hate being deceived the most? So as your closest collaborator, this is the small lesson I give you. I hope you remember, don’t think you can control anyone..."

"Ah—"

Joe Lane finally passed out under the dual blows of spiritual power and physical assault.

Ji Ning looked at the mentally collapsed Joe Lane, her brows tightly knit, "You did it on purpose?"

The Sixteenth Rank Superpower User continued to look innocent, but his eyes were sly, "What are you saying? You asked me to control him, didn’t you? After all, he’s a Sixteenth Rank powerhouse; if I don’t act strongly, how could he obediently stand here for you to destroy his superpower?"

Ji Ning knew the man before her was indeed intentional, though cooperating with Joe Lane, he had always been cautious of him.

This time she called him to sneak attack Joe Lane, helping her silently disable him, but he absolutely had the idea of taking advantage, solving Joe Lane as a threat.

After all, only the dead can keep secrets, but actually dying would be troublesome; so brain death then!

It could also bring trouble to Hua Continent, so why not?

However—

"Heh..."

Ji Ning sneered, suddenly exerting force, and Joe Lane completely ceased breathing.

"You..."

The Sixteenth Rank Superpower User widened his eyes in shock, unable to believe that Joe Lane, a Sixteenth Rank powerhouse, died so disgracefully.

When he reacted, vigilance instantly rose in his eyes, fearing Ji Ning might attack him next.

Unexpectedly, she suddenly changed her appearance, becoming Joe Lane.

The corpse on the ground also disappeared.

Ji Ning’s voice carried endless killing intent: "Either cooperate with me, or die!"

***

The pitch-black night, all was silent.

A huge roar suddenly sounded.

The camp area detaining the Sixteenth Rank Superpower User instantly erupted in flames.

The violent explosions triggered piercing alarm sounds at Jiuming Mountain Base once again.

The lights bright as day swept over, seeing two shadows soar into the sky from the flames.

The warriors on site clearly saw Mr. Lane from the Jiazhou delegation crazily attacking the Sixteenth Rank Superpower User.

Every move was lethal, as if to silence him.

The fights between two Sixteenth Rank Superpower Users were definitely destruction-level dangerous.

With a slight oversight, half of Jiuming Mountain could be razed to the ground.

To stop the two, the base’s warplanes had already taken to the air.

Hei Wu, Hei Qi, and all superpower users within the base were fully armed, forming a protective net, safeguarding the camp area where ordinary warriors were located.

However, the two fighting in the air moved farther and farther away, quickly heading toward the depths of the mountains.

As if not wanting to affect Jiuming Mountain Base, or avoiding aircraft locks.

With their departure, everyone breathed a slight sigh of relief, but vigilance didn’t relax, fearing they might return at any time.

Fu Yuanxuan looked solemnly at the two figures gradually becoming two black dots, for some reason, a thought suddenly flashed in his mind.

[Where is Ji Ning?]
