Chapter 258: Pluto Wuji (3)
In the underworld, there are the White Palace and the Black Palace, each of which is presided over by two princes and four guardians under them. They are the people with the highest status in the underworld.
The White Palace is now run by Bai Yuntang. All these positions, including the throne of Pluto, were seized through bloody means.
There have been countless strong people in the underworld since ancient times , and there is no shortage of strong people. However, there is a lack of strong and cold-blooded people who can kill people, including their closest people.
Every Hades can ascend the throne only after killing the previous Hades.
Therefore, Bai Yuntang is now deliberately trying every means to kill Hades. This matter is not a secret or a taboo in the underworld. Everyone knows that strength is the key here. As long as you can kill Hades, naturally no one will object to you sitting in that position.
However, Bai Yuntang, who had just returned from the Pluto Palace today, was in a bad mood. He received news that Mo Wuji was dying, but after taking a look just now, it seemed that he was still a little far from death.
Moreover, it would be difficult to take action with Xuan Ye around, and no one knew where Yun Zong was. If he came out and disrupted the situation, things would become even more complicated.
Wei Ning saw that he was sulking, and then took his confidants to the secret room to discuss countermeasures.
She was also bored, and seeing that there were not many people in the underworld and the defenses were very lax, she came up with an idea. She took out the green-faced and fanged mask from the black jade ring, put it on, and went out for a walk.
In her previous imagination, the underworld should be a hell-like place, but now that she was there , she found that it was like an empty city, cold and deserted, with only occasional servants walking by in twos or three in silence.
Inside this huge fortress, it was surrounded by oppressive black walls, and the dome was so high that the top could not be seen at all.
The White Palace and the Black Palace guard the two sides of the Pluto Palace respectively. Passing through the White Palace and on the way to the Pluto Palace, there is a passage connected by more than a hundred giant pillars. It is rare that the whole way is bright. There are pools on both sides, with dozens of white giant pythons in them.
There was a slight layer of ice on the water in the pool. The giant white python was lying lazily by the pool with its eyes closed, and a cold air emanating from its body.
Wei Ning quickly jumped over the beam at the top of the giant pillar, took a look at the scene below, and got goosebumps.
Passing through the giant pillar passage is the Palace of Pluto, the largest building in the entire underworld, and also the darkest place. When you walk in, the darkness and coldness all around immediately make you feel suffocated.
Wei Ning's footsteps were very light, and they made almost no sound in the long corridor .
She saw a gray-robed maid in front of her with her head lowered, carrying a tray and walking to the room in the front. She pushed the black stone door leading to the top open a crack and walked in.
Wei Ning immediately followed and looked inside. It was dark and there was only a faint candlelight. She couldn't see what was in the room at all.
"Your Majesty, take your medicine." The maid said softly and respectfully.
There was a snap and a sound of shattering, and the maid sobbed in panic. A moment later, she held her hands full of fragments and stabbed her palms until blood flowed.
Violent, cold-blooded personality.
Wei Ning said in her heart, and when she saw the maid did not close the door after leaving, she quietly walked over.
A candlelight flickered on the bed inside. Through the drawn gauze curtain, a person with loose hair could be vaguely seen. The long silver hair shone brightly in the dimness.
Wei Ning watched quietly, and was dazed for a moment.
