Paimon couldn't help but grumble softly as he walked towards the path that would be overlooked if he wasn't paying attention.

"The Hall of Rebirth is an organization that has been passed down for a long time, but its location is quite remote. If I hadn't looked for it specifically, I might not have noticed that there was a road here."

"Oh my, I can't refute what you said. But there's nothing I can do. Although the Wangsheng Hall has a long history, it is ultimately just an organization that presides over funeral matters."

“People always avoid talking about death, and also avoid things related to death, so the Hall of the Dead was built in this inconspicuous corner.”

Walnut's somewhat playful voice sounded behind Ying and Paimon.

After hearing this explanation, Ying and Paimon noticed someone behind them and turned around quickly, only to see Walnut waving at them with a smile on her face.

"From what you two said, you came to Wangsheng Hall specifically, which means you are our Wangsheng Hall's customers."

"What do you need? Just let us know. As a time-honored brand, Wangshengtang will do its best to meet the needs of its customers."

"Excuse me, are you..."

In response to Paimon's question, Hu Tao made a somewhat exaggerated expression.

"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Hu Tao, the current head of Wangsheng Hall. The affairs I'm in charge of are not complicated, but just some small matters of life and death."

Seeing Hu Tao introduce herself, Ying also politely told Hu Tao her and Paimon's names.

"My name is Ying and I'm a traveler. This is Paimon, my best friend and guide."

Paimon, who was floating nearby and heard Kurumi's self-introduction, was somewhat surprised.

"You are Walnut."

"Oh, has the guest heard of my name?"

Hu Tao was very surprised that Paimon and Ying knew about her. The fact that people she had never met knew about her showed that her recent promotion of the Wangshengtang business was quite effective.

Faced with Kurumi's questioning, Paimon almost blurted out Gao Muming's name in a hurry.

"Yes, I heard it..."

"Cough cough!"

Hearing that Paimon was about to say something wrong, Ying coughed heavily and interrupted Paimon's words.

Facing Ying's speechless eyes, Paimon reacted and hurriedly made amends with words.

"No, that's right, I heard someone mention your name. Yes, I heard someone mention your name by chance."

Hu Tao moved his face closer to Paimon, who didn't dare to look at him, with some suspicion. When Paimon felt like he was sweating profusely because of Hu Tao's stare, Hu Tao stepped back.

"That's all. Please come in, my two guests. We'll discuss your specific requirements in detail."

Seeing Hu Tao’s enthusiasm, Ying explained the purpose of their visit with some embarrassment.

"Um, Hu Tao, we are not your clients. We just want to ask for your help with something."

"It's okay. I roughly know that you came to the Hall of Rebirth to seek help for some reason."

Kurumi said as she looked around before approaching Ying and Paimon.

"Things related to ghosts in Liyue are also within the scope of our Wangsheng Hall's business. From the looks of you, you must have come into contact with ghosts not long ago."

"How amazing! You actually knew that we just encountered a ghost named Xiao Ming."

After hearing Paimon's surprised voice, Hu Tao instantly became interested. She immediately came close to Ying and stared at Paimon with her plum blossom-shaped pupils.

"So it was her you met. Where is she now? I have to send her away."

After hearing what Hu Tao said, Paimon hesitated whether to tell Xiao Ming's current location.

"Ah, should we send her away? But the Great Demon Slayer Xiao said that Xiao Ming has never hurt humans and her crime does not deserve death."

Looking at Paimon's somewhat conflicted expression, Hu Tao knew that Paimon had misunderstood, so she chuckled and explained.

"We in the Wangsheng Hall have the responsibility to maintain the boundary between life and death. When I said send him away, I meant it literally. I didn't mean to eliminate Xiao Ming as you thought."

"By the way, you have actually met the Great Sage who conquers demons. I never knew you had such a close relationship with the immortals."

At this point, a puzzled expression appeared on Kurumi's face.

"But from what you said, you didn't come to our Wangsheng Hall for Xiao Ming's matter. Then I am a little curious, what exactly do you mean by seeking help?"

"It's like this. As a traveler, Ying wants to meet all seven gods. As you know, now that Liyue's Geode King has fallen, she can only settle for the next best thing and choose to pay homage to Geode King's ancestor's transformation."

"It's just a pity that due to the turmoil on Yujing Terrace, Immortal Ancestor Fa Tu was hidden by the Liyue Seven Stars. We found out through inquiries that the Wangsheng Hall was responsible for handling funeral ceremonies."

"I just thought that when you hold the funeral ceremony for Emperor Yanwang, you can let us see the Immortal Ancestor's transformation up close."

"You actually want to visit all seven gods. What an incredible goal."

Walnut lowered his head and pondered as he spoke.

"If you had come earlier, it would only take a word to help you, but now it's a bit troublesome."

Paimon, who was happy about the first half of Hu Walnut's words, showed a somewhat surprised expression after hearing Hu Walnut's words.

"Could it be that your Wangsheng Hall has already quietly buried the Immortal Ancestor's Dharma Transformation?"

"No, that's not the trouble I'm talking about."

"What's the reason for that?"

"To be honest, I have now entrusted the matter of the sending-off ceremony for Emperor Yanwang to our Wangsheng Hall's guest official Zhongli."

Walnut spread his hands and said this.

"That is to say, if you want to access the Immortal Ancestor's Transmutation through the Hall of Rebirth, you need Zhongli's approval. However, although Zhongli looks relatively young, his behavior and personality are that of an old antique. I'm sure he won't easily agree to such an important matter."

"I will introduce you to Zhongli Keqing. You can discuss this matter with him yourselves."

As Hu Tao said this, she led Ying and Paimon into the Hall of the Dead.

After entering the Hall of Rebirth, I found that Young Master Tartaglia, who had left earlier, was negotiating with Zhongli there.

When the young man saw Ying and Paimeng come in, he was looking at the door because of the noise and a hint of surprise appeared on his face.

"The traveler actually found the Hall of Rebirth on her own. Did she come here on her own or was it the suggestion of the guy who came with her just now? Either way, it's not good news to me."

Zhongli, who was sitting opposite the Childe, immediately stood up and greeted Hutao who came in, and introduced Childe Tartaglia to Hutao.

"Master Hu, this is the executive officer of the Fatui. Through negotiation, he has taken care of all the expenses for the funeral ceremony for the Rock King."
