Chuchu's heart felt heavy as if it were being weighed down by a huge stone. The sadness was unprecedented, complex and profound, different from any previous emotional fluctuations.
She felt that she was in an indescribable emotional whirlpool, but she had no time to delve into it because her top priority was to save Lu Chenguang.
With an anxious heart, Chu Chu did not hesitate at all. Almost relying on instinct, she rushed out of the mysterious secret realm, holding Lu Chenguang tightly by her side, and headed straight for the underworld.
She had only one thought in her mind, and that was to save him no matter what, even if it meant giving up everything she had.
Stepping into the dark and solemn palace of the underworld, Chuchu directly found Hades - her majestic yet loving father.
When Hades saw Lu Chenguang, barely breathing and covered in wounds, his expression suddenly changed, his eyes filled with shock and worry. "What...what on earth is going on? How could the Demon Lord be so badly injured?"
Chu Chu fought back the tears and told Hades the whole story. She described in detail how the new demon king Bai Ling suddenly appeared in the human world, how he ruthlessly injured Lu Chenguang, and every detail of their difficult recovery in the secret realm.
Although her voice trembled slightly, her tone was filled with pleading, "Father, I beg you, you must save him. He was injured because of me. I tried to use my own magic power to help him, but the two forces in his body were too strong for me to control. I tried to absorb some of his power to reduce his burden, but it only benefited me and did not help his injuries at all. I also tried to find a balance between the two forces, but the results were disappointing..."
At this point, Chu Chu's voice was already choked with sobs. She took a deep breath, tried to calm herself, and pleaded again: "Father, you are the ruler of the underworld, and you possess supreme magical powers and wisdom. I believe you must have a way to save him. Please, please save Lu Chenguang!"
Hades knew that time was running out and that the Demon Lord's injuries should not be underestimated. He immediately ordered people to carefully place Lu Chenguang on the ice jade bed specially made for the underworld.
This ice jade couch can not only stabilize the injured person's breathing and slow down the deterioration of the injury, but also isolate them from external distractions and interference to a certain extent, providing the best environment for treatment.
Hades closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and a faint power of the underworld began to spread around his body. It was the supreme power he had condensed after tens of millions of years of practice, absorbed from the endless darkness, and after being baptized by countless cycles of life and death.
He slowly stretched out his palm and gently covered Lu Chenguang's chest. A gentle and deep blue light overflowed from his palm and slowly penetrated into Lu Chenguang's body.
"Chu Chu, please stand back a little. Father wants to find out the true nature of these two forces."
Chu Chu agreed and immediately stepped back.
Hades muttered silently in his heart, his consciousness penetrated deep into Lu Chenguang's body along with his magic power, as if he was in a chaotic battlefield. On one side was the power of the fallen god, like a surging undercurrent; on the other side was his ten thousand year old demon god, treacherous and changeable, entwining the demon lord's meridians like a poisonous snake, trying to devour everything.
"The power of the demon fox is indeed sinister and vicious. It has disrupted the Demon Lord's two already unbalanced powers!"
Pluto marveled inwardly, then adjusted his strategy, guiding his own magical power through Lu Chenguang's body, attempting to find the intersection of the two forces. His magical power was like a delicate thread, delicately weaving through the Demon Lord's meridians. Every step required extreme caution, lest he trigger those sensitive and dangerous forces.
"Eureka!" Pluto was delighted. He had discovered a delicate balance point, the key to the conflicting yet interdependent nature of these two forces. He took a deep breath, increased his mana output, and began to fine-tune and balance this equilibrium point.
Hades' hands were constantly changing seals, each of which contained profound secrets of the underworld. They intertwined in the air to form complex and mysterious patterns. As Hades injected his magic power, these patterns gradually merged into Lu Chenguang's body, becoming the link for balancing the power in his body.
As time passed, Hades' expression gradually became solemn, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Chuchu stood aside, extremely nervous. She knew that this was an extremely difficult and energy-consuming task. If she was not careful, not only would she fail to cure Lu Chenguang, but she might also put him in an even more dangerous situation.
Finally, with the unremitting efforts of Hades, the two forces in Lu Chenguang's body began to gradually stabilize. The originally violent magic power and fallen angel power seemed to be tamed and no longer so wanton.
Pluto took the opportunity to guide them to flow along the predetermined path, and eventually they converged into a new, more powerful force, slowly flowing in Lu Chenguang's body.
With the birth of this new power, Lu Chenguang's face gradually regained its color, and his originally furrowed brows slowly relaxed.
Seeing this, the huge stone in Hades' heart finally fell to the ground. He slowly withdrew the magic power condensed in his palm, and his body swayed slightly. It was obvious that this rescue had consumed a lot of his energy.
He stood up and gently brushed off the non-existent dust on his collar. His eyes showed signs of fatigue, but also a glint of indescribable relief.
"We've finally overcome this difficulty." Pluto's voice was deep and magnetic, as if carrying a soothing power. "But the road to recovery is still long. Lu Chenguang needs absolute peace and rest before he can slowly regain his strength."
He turned to Chuchu, his eyes filled with tenderness and expectation, "Chuchu, your company is very important to him. Please stay by his side and use your magic to help him through this difficult time."
Chu Chu's eyes couldn't help but turn red when she heard this. She looked at Hades with gratitude, her voice choked with sobs: "Thank you, father. I will do my best to take care of him until he fully recovers."
At this point, a question that had been weighing on her heart for a long time suddenly surfaced in Chuchu's heart. She mustered her courage and asked softly, "Father, I've always wondered about Lu Chenguang's past... How did he fall from being a god to becoming a demon? Is there some hidden secret behind this?"
Hearing this, Hades' expression became complicated. He sighed softly, slowly walked to the window, and stared at the deep night sky of the underworld, as if recalling that dusty history.
"Ten thousand years ago, the six realms were not as harmonious as they are today. Wars were frequent, and countless lives were lost. Lu Chenguang, back then, was not only a Celestial Sovereign, but also honored as the 'God of War in the Sky,' the most dazzling star in the heavens. However, the catastrophe in the human realm became a turning point in his fate. He led the army under orders, intending to quell the rebellion and protect the innocent, but somehow, he ended up killing tens of thousands of innocent civilians..."
Hades' voice was low and heavy. "After that tragedy, he was subjected to unprecedented accusations and scorn from the six realms. His comrades in the heavens and the orphans of the human world all regarded him as an enemy. In despair and anger, he chose to break with the six realms and fell into the path of evil..."
