Chapter 119: Mirror of Rebirth
Chapter 119: Mirror of Rebirth
"You've seen her, right?" Su Yichen stood up and said lightly.
"What?" Ming Ye asked with a puzzled look on his face.
Su Yichen frowned and looked back at Ming Ye's confused expression, feeling surprised. He could clearly sense a familiar aura from Ming Ye, but she seemed to be unaware of it. Could it be that he didn't recognize her?
"It's nothing. The Underworld must give an explanation for this matter. The mortal world and the underworld have always kept to themselves, and they are bound by an agreement made thousands of years ago. However, now, hundreds of my disciples in the mortal world have died tragically in the underworld. I wonder what the King of Hell thinks about this?" Su Yichen said in a cold tone.
"I'll send someone to investigate..." Ming Ye replied with an annoyed look on his face. It's always like this. Whenever there's something wrong, he comes to me. It's so annoying.
Su Yichen held his head high and walked out of the underworld with big strides. He exuded an otherworldly temperament, like a god descending to the mortal world. He was dressed in a snow-white dress, which formed a sharp contrast with the gloomy and terrifying underworld environment around him, and seemed particularly abrupt and uncoordinated.
With every step he took, the surrounding black fog and souls dissipated, as if purified by a powerful and mysterious force. Ming Ye followed behind him and witnessed this scene, and he couldn't help but feel endless doubts and surprise in his heart. Who exactly is he? Why is his aura so pure and unique? If he stays in the underworld for a few more days, I'm afraid there will be no more wronged souls here.
However, time was running out, and Ming Ye could not think too much. He hurriedly followed Su Yichen's pace, using his soul power to resist the powerful aura emanating from Su Yichen's body. The two men, one white and one black, formed a sharp contrast. One was as cold and noble as a god, making people dare not look directly at him; the other was as cold and resolute as the devil of hell, making people shudder. They were both handsome men with outstanding temperament, but they all exuded an aura of indifference and alienation, making it difficult for people to get close to them.
The wronged souls around them trembled with fear, but were attracted by Su Yichen's pure aura and finally turned to ashes...
In the distance, there was a man in red, with steady and powerful steps, approaching the two people quickly. He said in a somewhat joking tone: "I can smell it from such a distance, I wondered who it was, it turned out to be Brother Su!" Mingyou stopped five feet away from Su Yichen, stared at Su Yichen and spoke.
"Brother Su, I hope you are well." Ming You bowed and smiled.
"The Prince of the Underworld." Su Yichen said coldly while looking at Ming You.
"Why call me Prince? It makes us seem distant. You are my brother's good friend, so you are naturally my friend too. Just call me Mingyou." Mingyou raised the corners of his mouth slightly and revealed a smile.
At this time, Ming Ye coughed softly and said, "Ming You, why did you come here instead of staying in the underworld?"
"If I don't show up here again, I'm afraid this underworld will become the Su family's." Mingyou replied with a smile.
Su Yichen frowned slightly, "What does the prince mean by this?"
"Don't blame me, Brother Su. I was just joking." Ming You quickly explained, "I came here this time because I was asked by Hades to investigate what happened recently. I hope Brother Su can help me."
Su Yichen glanced at him, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Since it is the King of Hell who has entrusted you, let's go together." After that, he turned around and left. Ming Ye and Ming You looked at each other and followed.
"Did anything happen in the underworld?" Ming Ye asked Ming You while walking behind.
Mingyou nodded, "Brother, you just woke up. You may not know that the Night Rakshasa in the underworld woke up a few days ago... The demon beast Xing Teng in the eighteen levels of hell disappeared..."
"Oh? Is that so? What does this have to do with him?" Ming Ye glanced at Su Yichen who was walking in front of him. Could it be related to what he said?
Mingyou shook his head and said in a heavy tone: "I don't know the details either, I just know that the whole underworld began to shake for no reason that day, as if something was about to come out. Then, a large number of ghosts escaped from hell."
Mingyou continued, "At that time, the Ten Kings of Hell immediately sent a large number of ghost soldiers and underworld officials to capture the escaped ghosts, but strangely, no one and no soul came back alive. It was not until later that I learned that the ghosts had all disappeared without a trace."
He paused, a solemn look on his face: "When I arrived, I found that Ye Luosha had awakened and was trying to break the seal. Fortunately, she had just woken up and her strength was not very strong. In the end, she was suppressed again by the Ten Kings of Hell. But if she is allowed to regain her freedom completely, I am afraid that the underworld will face an unprecedented disaster..."
After listening to this, Ming Ye frowned and thought deeply. Ye Luosha... a half-demon female demon who had been locked up in the underworld for thousands of years and was under strict supervision, how could she suddenly wake up? Could it be... really related to this matter?
The three of them walked into the Palace of Pluto.
As Hades' guardian, Ming Ji naturally always stayed by his side. On the other side stood a cold and resolute man, also Hades' guardian, named Ming Long.
"Greetings, Hades..." Ming Ye and Ming You knelt down respectfully and said in unison.
"Well, get up. Ye'er, come here quickly and let your father take a good look at you!" Hades showed a kind smile on his face and waved to Ming Ye, indicating that he should come closer.
Mingye stood up, walked to Hades with steady steps, and called softly, "Father."
"Oh, my good child, you have suffered so much these years. How come you have lost so much weight..." Pluto caressed Mingye's cheek with heartache, his eyes full of love.
Seeing this, Ming You stepped forward and said coquettishly, "Father, now that you have a brother, do you not care about me, your son?"
"Hmph, you just know how to cause trouble for me all day long, and you still dare to bargain with me?" Hades rolled his eyes at Mingyou and said unhappily.
"Well, um, I wonder why Lord Hades asked us to come here this time? It is really inconvenient for me to get involved in your family affairs. How about we put this matter aside for now?" Su Yichen couldn't help but interrupt this heartwarming scene. His time was very precious. Su Yichen looked around the hall and felt a little happy in his heart. Wanwan had been here too!
"Ahem, okay, okay." Pluto felt a little embarrassed when Su Yichen said this, and responded quickly. After all, he almost forgot about the business just now and was busy chatting with his son.
"The incident has been investigated. It was done by those who escaped from the underworld. They brought the branch of the Star Vine out of the underworld. As for the dead mortals, the underworld has intercepted more than a dozen souls that have not yet been reincarnated. The rest of the souls are too weak. They have either dissipated or have been reincarnated..." The King of Hell looked at Su Yichen apologetically, "I wonder what your opinion is on this matter. The underworld will try its best to meet your needs..."
"Pluto!" Hades Dragon stood aside and tried to stop him.
The Hades stretched out his hand to stop the Hades Dragon from saying anything, and continued, "This matter was an oversight by the Underworld, and it did not break the agreement between the Mortal World and the Underworld."
"Lord Hades, you are too polite. I am just a mortal and do not have much say in this matter. However, since it has already happened, we should find a way to solve the problem and prevent similar things from happening again." Su Yichen said.
"Well said!" Hades nodded in agreement. "So, how do you think we should deal with this matter?"
"I think that first of all we should give certain compensation and comfort to those dead mortals so that their families can get some comfort. Secondly, we also need to strengthen the connection and communication between the mortal world and the underworld to ensure that both parties can abide by the agreement and similar things will not happen again." Su Yichen expressed his thoughts.
"Well, what you said is absolutely right, young friend." Hades agreed. "I will order the strengthening of the management and supervision of the underworld, and I will also arrange for someone to comfort the families of the dead mortals. As for the connection and communication between the mortal world and the underworld, I will also send someone to be responsible for that."
"Thank you, Lord Pluto." Su Yichen said.
"You're welcome. This is what I should do." Hades waved his hand and looked at Hades Dragon beside him. "Hades Dragon, I'll leave this matter to you."
"As you command, Lord Hades." Hades Dragon bowed, then turned and left.
Hades looked at Su Yichen who had not yet left the palace, blinked and said, "My friend, do you have anything else to do?"
Su Yichen cupped his hands and said, "This time, the accident in the underworld caused countless casualties in the mortal world, including my academy's disciple Jiaojiao. This is what I captured from the mortal world. Please have a look, King of Hell."
Su Yichen took out the glass bottle, and everyone in the hall saw that something seemed to be about to break out of the transparent glass bottle.
"This is... the Monster Star Vine!" Pluto stared at the item in the bottle with wide eyes.
Su Yichen nodded.
Hades gave Mingyou a look, indicating that he could take the Star Vine. However, just as Mingyou stretched out his hand to take it, Su Yichen suddenly said, "Mirror of Rebirth!"
Everyone was shocked and looked at Su Yichen in the hall, thinking that he had been laying the groundwork for so long, and the ultimate goal was to exchange for the Mirror of Rebirth!
The Hades sat on the chair at the head, narrowed his eyes slightly, and thought to himself. This mirror of rebirth is a thing from the underworld. Although it is not indispensable, it is also a very important treasure. And the star vine is the treasure of the underworld, and its value is inestimable.
After weighing the pros and cons, Hades finally nodded and said to Mingyou: "In this case, Mingyou, you should go to the underworld and get the Rebirth Mirror."
Hearing this, Su Yichen hurriedly stopped him and said firmly: "What I want is not an ordinary Rebirth Mirror, but the main mirror of the Rebirth Mirror! Lord Pluto, please don't use those secondary mirrors to perfunctory me..."
The Hades glanced at Su Yichen, then turned to look at Mingyou, and seeing the latter nodded, he waved his hand and told him to go to the underworld to get the main mirror of the Rebirth Mirror. Then, Mingyou turned around and walked out of the hall.
