Chapter 605 - 93: The Rootless Netherworld (Part 6)
Although the lion was a herbivorous demon beast, it didn’t hinder its high status within the Hades Palace. It sped along the way, and any hunting demon beasts that saw it from afar would also make way, not daring to contend with it.
"You’re quite impressive," Lu Hong patted the lion’s nape, eliciting a roll of the eyes from it.
Under the lion’s protection, Lu Hong successfully completed half of the journey.
As they approached closer to the central area of the palace, the fog became thicker, and visibility dropped significantly.
Lu Hong jumped off the back of the lion and said, "Thanks!"
The lion paid no heed to Lu Hong and turned to leave.
A moment later, it turned its head and barked twice at Lu Hong, as if warning him to be cautious.
Nodding, Lu Hong watched the lion leave before getting to his feet and entering the tunnel.
The chilling breath became more oppressive as he went deeper, almost freezing Lu Hong. He had to stimulate his blood energy to protect his body and continue moving forward.
After walking for two hours, Lu Hong had not encountered a single palace demon beast. The silence around was eerily terrifying.
After a while, Lu Hong noticed scattered human bones on the tunnel floor.
