Douluo Continent: Reincarnated as the Rock King Emperor, Wandering the Mortal World

"Xiangling, Xiangling!"

"This time, I've made a killing!"

Before she even entered the door, Hu Tao's voice echoed throughout the Zhongli Manor.

After saying this, Hu Tao didn't care whether Zhong Li behind her could keep up with her pace, and rushed towards the hall to share the good news with everyone.

The funeral arrangements for Xueye were announced, and with Zhongli's support, the number of people reserving tombstones increased.

Shortly after the burial in the snowy night, Hu Tao received five more reservations for tombstones, which made her extremely happy.

Xiangling was her good friend, and it was naturally the best thing to share such a happy occasion with her friend.

Zhong Li followed behind Hu Tao, his steps steady and unhurried.

Zhongli shook his head helplessly. This child was really too unruly for him to handle.

The solemnity of the burial on the snowy night was immediately replaced by a smile on her face, which then became even more "outrageous".

How can they not be "outrageous"?

There are five memorial tablets!

It should be noted that those who could attend the funeral on a snowy night were all prominent figures within the empire, either nobles, powerful individuals, or ministers.

The price of these five memorial tablets is incomparable to that of ordinary tablets.

Although the funeral of Emperor Xueye was complicated and took a lot of time, it was completed before nightfall.

There were no unexpected events during the entire process.

As soon as he entered the gate, Zhong Li seemed to sense something, frowned, and couldn't help but look towards the hall.

Such an aura... could it be that someone has arrived?

After a moment's thought, Zhong Li walked slowly toward the hall.

Hu Tao walked ahead and stepped into the hall first.

Their gaze fell directly on the "stranger" in the hall.

"Are we having guests?"

Hu Tao asked in confusion. Even though she was rather oblivious, she could tell that something was off about the atmosphere in the hall.

In the hall, Balzebu and the Dragon King Rota were unusually silent. No one knew what they had said before that had caused the atmosphere to become so strange.

Xiangling and Guoba sat to the side, and Xiangling helplessly shrugged, indicating that she knew nothing about it.

She genuinely had no idea what had happened here; when she arrived in the living room, she saw that everyone was silent.

Seeing this, Hu Tao became even more puzzled. Could it be that the person who came was not a guest?

This is the Zhongli Manor! What kind of person would dare to cause trouble here?

Besides Zhongli, there is also the Dragon King Ruotu, the Thunder God Balzebu, and the Three-Eyed, Five-Manifestation Immortal Xiao...

With so many top-tier combatants, even the gods of this world wouldn't dare to act rashly, right?

Just as Hu Tao was wondering, Fu Ningna, who was sitting next to Vilette, stood up.

With a smile, she looked at Hu Tao, pointed to Navelette, and said, "Master Hu, let me introduce you. This is our Grand Inquisitor of Fontaine, Navelette."

When Navelette was mentioned, a hint of joy flashed in Furna's eyes. She had thought she had come to this world alone, but she hadn't expected that the Grand Inquisitor Navelette had also come to this world.

If she hadn't come to Tiandou City with Zhong Li and the others, they could have found her much sooner!

Thinking about this made Funina especially happy.

It feels so good to be remembered and cared for by people.

Upon hearing this, Hu Tao stroked her chin, thought for a moment, and then her eyes lit up.

She remembered that when Funina first arrived, she told some "stories" about Fontaine, in which the Grand Inquisitor Navelette made up a large part of the story.

The story is always filled with the figure of this great judge.

This great judge judged every case fairly and justly, and was extremely gentle and compassionate.

Hu Tao extended her hand to Navelette and said, "Hello, Navelette, I often hear Funina mention you."

"Let me introduce myself. I am Hu Tao, the 77th head of the Rebirth Hall. It's a pleasure to meet you!"

"Hello, Ms. Walnut."

Navelette nodded, and extended his hand as well, briefly touching and then separating from Walnut's hand.

This Ms. Walnut looks somewhat similar to Ms. Funina...

Navelette thought to herself, "The similarity he refers to is that the two have similar personalities and both seem lively and cheerful."

I've heard from the Traveler that Morax, the god of Liyue, serves as a guest elder in the Hall of Resurrection in human form.

I wonder how this Rock God usually gets along with this Hall Master.

In a very short time, Vilette thought a lot, but didn't say a word, and her face didn't even show the slightest expression.

In this respect, she is remarkably similar to Zhongli...

Hu Tao sized up Navelette. This Grand Inquisitor looked young, like a noble young master, and had the air and presence of a superior.

His demeanor is also very composed, much like "Old Deng".

As if she had just thought of something, Hu Tao smiled and said, "Our business at the Hall of Rebirth has expanded to this other world. Today, we not only completed a big order, but also received five memorial tablets."

At this point, Hu Tao paused, looked at Navelette, and continued, "I am pleased to announce that those who order a memorial tablet now can enjoy a 50% discount."

"Navilette, would you be interested in reserving a monument?"

Hearing this, Vilette was somewhat puzzled and murmured, "A stele?"

The customs of Fontaine differ somewhat from those of Liyue.

Navelette had no idea what this monument was.

Navelette didn't know, but Funina, who had been in contact with Walnut for a few days, knew exactly what this stele was!

Furina rubbed her forehead, her eye twitching slightly, and said to Kurumi, "Um, Kurumi, Vilette probably doesn't need the memorial tablet you mentioned..."

What need does the mighty Water Dragon King have for a memorial tablet?

A monument passes down through generations; the monument may be gone, but the "people" remain...

Even if it's just a pre-arranged spot on the monument, so that Zhongli can outlast Vilette and complete this contract?

One is the Rock Demon God, and the other is the Perfect Dragon, the highest-ranking creature of the water element.

If neither of them is worn out, their lifespan is just a number; how could they possibly outlive each other?

Funina explained the location of the monument that Hu Tao had mentioned to Navilette. At that moment, Navilette fell silent and looked at Hu Tao...

Recommending something like this to him on our first meeting, this girl is really heartless... she has such a pure heart.

I've heard that the Rock Demon God is calm and composed, and his expression remains unchanged even if Mount Tai collapses on top of him.

I don't know how he got along with this girl.

"Ms. Walnut, thank you for your kindness, but I don't need the memorial tablet. Please leave it to someone who needs it."

Villette's eyes twitched slightly, but she spoke calmly and with remarkable composure.

As the Supreme Judge, Navelette would not be easily swayed by words, and even if she were, she would not easily show it.

Of course, you can also tell his mood by the weather changes...

Before Hu Tao could continue her sales pitch, Zhong Li walked into the hall and met Navelette's gaze.
