But he failed to save Hu Tao and was nearly injured by the black smoke several times.

"As expected... that level of power..."

Finally, Xiao confirmed the opponent's strength and had no choice but to step back, while respectfully saying, "That person possesses power no less than that of a demon god. Please, Your Highness, lend a hand."

At this moment, the employees of Wangshengtang were extremely surprised. Xiao was the famous Demon-Slaying Great Sage, yet he couldn't deal with the evil spirit in front of him, which was enough to show how powerful the enemy was.

However, Xiao requested assistance from Prince Zhidong, which is enough to prove that His Highness's strength is even greater than Xiao's.

Xiao himself possesses the strength of an immortal, and is even one of the best among immortals. Clearly, Prince Zhidong's strength surpasses that of an immortal, reaching a level close to that of a god!

"Please, Your Highness, intervene and rescue my master."

"Your Highness, I beg you."

The staff at Wangshengtang were extremely anxious.

"I'm afraid I'll miss my chance to be a hero and save the damsel in distress," Su Yu replied.

Puzzled, the crowd suddenly noticed two phantom figures flying swiftly from the mist at the edge of Wuwangpo.

A phantom figure, graceful as a startled swan, appeared; it was none other than the God of Dust returning to his final

A phantom stood with its hands behind its back, looking down with disdain; it was Morax.

The two rescued Hu Tao and simultaneously engaged in battle with the enemy.

"Senior Gui Zhong!"

The Hall of Rebirth has a long history, and the family has a portrait of the deceased god returning to his final rest. Hu Tao recognized it and immediately expressed her gratitude.

Then, she exclaimed in surprise, "Zhongli? How come you're with Senior Guizhong?"

"Master Hu Tao, they are just phantoms of the past."

After listening to Su Yu's explanation, Hu Tao roughly understood the situation.

The dust god's return is the history recorded by the earth's veins, but under the stimulation of the enemy, he instinctively flew out of Wuwang Slope to kill the enemy.

"The Liyue historical records say that the person who was with Chen Shen Gui Zhong was the Emperor, but I clearly saw Zhong Li just now, could it be..."

"You guessed right, Zhongli, the guest elder of the Hall of Rebirth, is none other than the Rock King Emperor Morax."

Hu Tao was almost speechless with shock.

The Emperor is actually serving as a guest advisor in his own shop!

Hu Tao thought back carefully and realized that she was fortunate to have been very polite to Zhong Li and had taken care of all his expenses. She had never offended the Emperor, which calmed her down a bit.

"But if word gets out that I've hired the Emperor to work for me, won't it cause a storm of criticism?"

"So it's best if only you and I know about this, and that no one else knows."

"understand."

Hu Tao quickly lowered her voice, afraid that the shop assistant next to her would hear her.

"Don't worry, Master Hu Tao. No one else could hear the conversation just now; I shielded their hearing."

Hu Tao was immediately filled with admiration.

Prince Zhidong is not only highly capable, but also extremely meticulous; no wonder he has created so many legends.

"Who exactly is that extra person, the demon god?"

Hu Tao humbly asked for advice.

"His aura was like a surging tide, and his elemental combat skills were also related to seawater. Most notably, he was accompanied by bursts of dragon roars, which must have come from the Sea God's Palace."

Upon hearing the words "Palace of the Sea God," Hu Tao's face turned pale.

She had heard the name Sea God Palace more than once. Just a few days ago, Shen He was captured by people from Sea God Palace.

The people from the Sea God Palace suddenly infiltrated the group, their purpose clearly being to capture him and offer him as a sacrifice to the Dragon King of the East Sea!

Fortunately, Prince Zhidong was here today, otherwise I would have been in danger.

Not long after, Dust God Returns to the End and the former phantom of Rock King Emperor joined forces and successfully killed the evil spirit from the Sea God Palace. Then the two disappeared into the mist.

"By the way, Your Highness, I have another question. Mr. Zhongli, oh no, I should call him the Emperor, why did he join the Hall of Rebirth?"

"It's probably because Master Hu Tao is cute."

Hu Tao chuckled and said, "Hmph, Your Highness is joking again."

Su Yu stood before Wuwang Slope, gazing at the distant boundary blurred by thick fog, and said, "Morax joined the Hall of Rebirth only to make it easier to come to Wuwang Slope and watch the illusion of returning to the past."

"The touching love story between Lord Guizhong and Lord Emperor was actually true..."

Hu Tao was a little hesitant to move.

The Goddess of Dust has been dead for thousands of years, but the Emperor still remembers her.

"Your Majesty, you are such a gentle person. May I see that period of history?"

"Of course. However, the cost is high, requiring a large amount of Mora."

"I'm willing to spend any amount of Mora."

Su Yu taught Hu Tao the complete method, and she began to operate it.

A vast amount of history and memories emerged from the earth's veins, and Hu Tao was moved to tears after seeing that period of time.

She saw the scene of Gui Zhong meeting the Emperor, the scene of Gui Zhong taking good care of the Emperor, and the scene of Gui Zhong risking his life to protect the Emperor when he was in danger...

Unfortunately, the beautiful times they shared were all frozen on the day Chen Shengui was assassinated.

Originally, the Emperor went out to fight, leaving behind the immortals of Liyue to protect Guizhong. However, Guizhong was worried about the Emperor's safety and instead persuaded the immortals to go and help the Emperor.

A powerful demon god from the Sea God's Palace took advantage of the situation to launch a sneak attack on Guiliyuan and assassinate the God of Dust, Guizhong.

Gui Zhong had a chance to escape, but she couldn't abandon the people of Guiliyuan, and ultimately died at the hands of the enemy.

The immortals rushed to the rescue, but only Gui Zhong's remains remained.

Seeing that Hu Tao was still immersed in that sad memory, Su Yu wiped away her tears and comforted her, "In the end, returning is Morax's obsession and his inner demon, but it is also an opportunity for rebirth."

……

The next day, the new advertisement for Wangshengtang was launched, and a brand new business was opened to the public.

The news spread like wildfire, and soon a large crowd arrived at the entrance of the usually deserted Wangsheng Hall.

"See your deceased relatives again? How is that possible? The dead can't be brought back to life! Is this some kind of new scam?"

“The Hall of Rebirth is a thousand-year-old shop in Liyue, the only shop approved by the Emperor to manage funeral affairs. How could Master Hu Tao commit fraud?”

"Don't jump to conclusions yet, let's wait until others have tried it before making a decision. However, I've heard it's quite expensive..."

An opportunity to see deceased relatives and friends is enough to make up for the regrets of many people, naturally attracting many onlookers.

The first batch of applicants consisted of ten people, all of whom were very wealthy. After all, only wealthy businessmen would attempt such an expensive service.

That night, the ten merchants followed Hu Tao to Wuwangpo.

A businessman saw his deceased parents and felt as if he had watched a movie, but it was far more real than a movie, as if his departed loved ones had returned to his side.

What surprised him even more was that the parents who appeared in those phantoms seemed to have a touch of spirituality, and would look at him from time to time, which moved him to tears.

As he left, he repeatedly expressed his gratitude to Hu Tao.

"Thank you, Master Hu Tao. I have no regrets. This money was well spent."

Another businessman saw his deceased lover.

He started from scratch, and his lover had worked hard alongside him to build a vast fortune. However, she eventually passed away due to illness, and they were unable to enjoy the wealth and prosperity together.

When his lover, standing in the mist, waved to him, the businessman couldn't help but rush forward, but was fortunately stopped by Hu Tao in time.

"The boundaries of Wuwangpo must not be crossed; that is the world of the dead."

"Master Hu Tao, I miss my wife so much."

Hu Tao smiled and said, "If you miss her, come and see her often."

"Master Hu Tao, may I see her again next time?"

"Of course, just prepare the Mora."

"Great!"

The businessman was overjoyed. He was now flush with cash, and if he could see his former lover more often, he wouldn't mind paying a huge sum for a motorcycle.

Just as the two finished speaking, someone nearby suddenly shouted for help.

problem occurs?

Hu Tao rushed over. If an accident happened on the first day of business, it would be like ruining her own reputation. But Wuwangpo was very safe. The dead would not easily cross the boundary. And the customers were protected by the shop's staff. How could they be in danger?

"what happened?"

"He's going to kill me! He's going to kill me!"

The merchant's face was pale.

Following the sound, Hu Tao saw a man in the mist, tears of blood streaming from his eyes, his expression filled with hatred and anger, about to break through the boundary and rush out.

"You have a grudge against him, don't you?"

No, no.

The merchant hurriedly shook his head, but his eyes darted away.

"Heh, since you're going to lie, then I can't help you. That spirit had unfulfilled wishes before it died, and driven by a strong obsession, it wants to rush over and demand its life back from you."

"Don't go, Master Hu Tao! I'll talk, I'll talk, okay?"

It turned out that the spirit opposite him was his business rival, whom he had hired from the black market to kill in order to monopolize the business. Hearing that one could see spirits at the Hall of Rebirth, he nervously came to confirm, fearing that his dead rival would reveal his secret.

"Go and surrender to the Thousand Rock Army. The law is the most basic contract in Liyue. If you break the contract, you must accept the punishment."

Hu Tao advised.

The merchant hesitated at first, but the undead opposite him had a ferocious expression and could rush over to kill him at any moment. He timidly replied, "Alas, alright. I will bear the consequences of my mistakes myself."

The undead opposite waved to Hu Tao as if to express its gratitude, and then its figure slowly disappeared.

Soon, the first batch of ten customers of Wangshengtang's new business had all completed their experience. Apart from the businessman who had just surrendered to Qianyan Army, the other nine businessmen all expressed great satisfaction.
