Chapter 719 Light and Darkness

Hades’ reception hall is not as big as Zeus’. When Zhuo Bai walked in, he saw Hades’ back at the window.

His figure was blocked by the gauze, and his tall figure reflected on him, which showed that he must be very tall.

Zeus was also tall, but he gave people a more sturdy feeling, especially when he was sitting on the golden chair, he looked like a huge lump.

But Hades was different, his figure was slightly slender, which made his height more prominent.

"Is Taichu okay?"

Hades' voice rang out, cold and deserted.

With these words, the tall figure turned around and walked in through the gauze.

Zhuo Bai saw his face for the first time. His face was not as broad as Zeus', but it was equally angular.

"Taichu is fine. He asked me to bring him to greet you and thank you for your help."

Zhuo Bai bowed and answered.

Hades waved his hands, as if he didn't care about his efforts, and then asked: "He should have something to discuss with Zeus. You met him and came to see me again, but failed to reach an agreement?"

"Yes, Taichu does have something to discuss with the Mountain of Gods."

Zhuo Bai pointed out that it was the Mountain of Gods, not someone in the Mountain of Gods. This sentence was a bit ambiguous.

Athena frowned, but she finally chose to say nothing.

"Tell me about it."

Hades raised his hand slightly, and two chairs appeared behind the two of them. He himself found a step and sat down.

Zhuo Bai did not give in. He knew that the will of God could not be rejected, so he sat directly on the chair.

After organizing his thoughts a bit, Zhuo Bai told him about the Tree of Life and Zeus' refusal.

Halfway through, Hades waved his hand, and a glass of red drink fell into Zhuo Bai's hand.

He indeed appeared to be more approachable than Zeus, and even Zhuo Bai couldn't help but have a good impression of him.

He even thought that Hades was more suitable to be the leader of the Mountain of the Gods than Zeus.

This thought flashed through his mind, and he didn't delve into it, but at least it made him understand the charm of Hades.

After everything was said, the whole living room became dull. Hades nodded and began to fiddle with his fingers. It was unclear whether he was thinking or admiring himself. After

a long time, he raised his head and looked at Athena: "My wise niece, what do you think of this?"

Zhuo Bai also looked at Athena. In fact, he was also curious about Athena's attitude.

In Zhuo Bai's opinion, Athena was too... close, which made him doubt her attitude and always felt that it might not be a good thing.

On the contrary, Hades was close yet distant, which made people feel at ease.

"I support cooperation with the Primordial Alliance. Even if we don't cooperate, we should at least go to see the stump of the Mother Tree. You should know how the two saints fell."

Athena's voice was elegant and powerful, and it sounded comfortable.

Hades nodded and said, "You can always make choices quickly, and the results always prove that you are right."

Athena bowed slightly to express her gratitude after being praised by Hades.

"So, did you try to persuade your stubborn father?"

Hades asked again.

"He rejected my persuasion."

Athena's voice was a little regretful.

Hades looked at Zhuo Bai: "The root of the mother tree is suppressed by Chu Sheng's consciousness. I am very curious about how Taichu will break Chu Sheng's consciousness."

"Taichu has subdued a mark of the Tree of Life. He wants to use this to convince Chu Sheng's consciousness."

Zhuo Bai immediately gave him the answer given by the Fifth Mystery. This answer surprised Hades and Athena.

"Has the Tree of Life come?"

Athena asked anxiously.

"Not yet. It is the believers of the Tree of Life. They have the mark of the Tree of Life in their souls, which was stripped out by Taichu." After

Zhuo Bai finished speaking, he saw a surprised expression on Hades' face.

"The last time we met, I didn't realize that he was so proficient in the operation of the soul."

This was an exclamation, and Zhuo Bai couldn't respond.

Athena seemed to be thinking about something, but she obviously didn't want to say what she was thinking about.

"Then I'll go talk to Zeus."

Hades stood up, and then a dark power shone from his body, and then spread to the entire temple.

When this power was about to break through the temple and appear outside the temple, an electric grid appeared in the air and blocked it.

"My dear brother, what are you going to do?"

Zeus' voice rang out, still so high and mighty, as if he was a god looking down on all life, and Hades was just a mortal.

"I want to go to the Primordial Alliance and judge the state of the roots of the Mother Tree."

Hades' voice was transmitted, still cold and deserted.

"But you haven't ended your imprisonment yet, and your sins need more time to be washed away."

Zeus refused.

Hades frowned, with obvious dissatisfaction on his face.

"You go out first."

Hades said to Zhuo Bai and Athena.

Athena and Zhuo Bai immediately stood up and walked out of the temple.

When they got outside the temple, Athena kept walking and flew far away, looking at the Temple of Hades from afar.

Zhuo Bai didn't understand the situation, but still followed Athena's footsteps.

"Are they still talking?"

Zhuo Bai asked Athena.

After coming out, he hadn't heard any conversation, so Zhuo Bai asked.

"Yes."

Athena's voice had just fallen when lightning suddenly struck from the sky.

The sky in the underworld is always dark, and this lightning instantly turned it into daytime. Many ghosts cried out, and all the creatures in the underworld were trembling.

"Lightning is very harmful to ghosts. They are afraid of Zeus."

Athena said, looking at the lightning in the sky.

Zhuo Bai nodded, watching the lightning strike straight on the temple of the underworld.

The temple of the underworld is not completely defenseless. When the lightning fell, more dark power enveloped the temple like flames, fighting against the lightning.

Lightning and dark forces clashed, and the crackling sound echoed throughout the underworld. The Temple of Hades collapsed, but the main body remained intact.

Lightning flashed one after another, as if showing the wrath of Zeus.

The dark flames in the temple burned the power grid, and attacked the lightning like a fire dragon.

The two were fighting, and the whole underworld was trembling.

There was a force wave, just an arc of electricity, but Zhuo Bai had a feeling that he could not resist it.

"Buzz."

Athena raised her shield forward, and a golden phantom blocked the two of them to block the lightning.

"Thank you."

Zhuo Bai said.

Athena nodded, said nothing, and looked at the entire underworld with worry.

He has a compassionate heart.

The two forces attacked each other, but the thunder and lightning had a clear advantage, and the entire battlefield was controlled by the underworld.

The Nether Flame rose several times, but failed to break through the underworld and enter the Mountain of the Gods.

"Zeus seems to be stronger."

Zhuo Bai couldn't help but say.

"Zeus can control the power of the Mountain of the Gods, and the underworld also belongs to the Mountain of the Gods."

Athena said calmly.

Zhuo Bai nodded and said nothing more.
