Chapter 356

~7 min read 1,319 words

"Sect Master, I have a small question I want to ask…"

"It's really a very, very small question."

"That…"

Looking at the stuttering Hu Tao, Zhongli beside Jiang Yan suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.

Looking at Jiang Yan's explanation just now, it is clear that many of the new disciples have chosen some techniques that are not very kind.

At that time, Zhongli was worried that Hu Tao also had one.

Although Zhongli hasn't talked much to Hu Tao so far, nor has he expressed his stance on Hu Tao joining Shushan.

But from the bottom of his heart, he is very happy that Hu Tao joined Shushan, and her talent is also great.

Zhongli joined the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor very early, and Hu Tao's grandfather even knew Zhongli's identity and even had a very good relationship with him.

As for Hu Tao, she can be considered to have been watched by Zhongli as she grew up.

After Hu Tao's grandfather passed away, according to Zhongli's original expectations, the life and years of a human are limited.

He should change his identity and address to continue living as a human.

But he was a bit worried about Hu Tao.

Hu Tao's grandfather left early, and Hu Tao was left alone to shoulder the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor. Zhongli thought about it and decided to expose some of his immortal identity to stay.

One is to look after Hu Tao, which can be considered giving Hu Tao's grandfather an explanation. After all, this little guy Hu Tao has shown a very naughty and mischievous personality since she was a child.

Secondly, he is also a bit used to the life of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor. The key is that the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor can also reimburse his daily expenses.

As a giant that monopolizes the funeral industry in Liyue, the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor's ability to make money is not bad at all.

Over time, Zhongli also regarded Hu Tao as his junior, just like Xiao.

Now…

Looking at Hu Tao's appearance, I'm afraid she has chosen a very incredible technique.

This made Zhongli a bit melancholy.

What if Hu Tao becomes a demonic cultivator? How should he explain it to Hu Tao's grandfather?

Jiang Yan glanced at Zhongli, naturally seeing his melancholy, and laughed secretly in his heart, saying slowly:

"Are you trying to talk about your technique?"

"Hehe… Sect Master is wise."

Hu Tao scratched her cheek and said in a low voice:

"I just… don't quite understand my Myriad Ghost Records…"

"???"

Zhongli's hearing was quite good, and hearing what Hu Tao said, he was instantly dumbfounded.

After being stunned for a long time, he said in disbelief:

"What did you say your technique is?"

"Myriad Ghost Records, is there a problem!"

Hu Tao hummed, puffed out her chest, and looked proud.

"So, are you a ghost cultivator now?"

Zhongli's gaze was extremely complicated. Hu Tao's choice exceeded his expectations.

Zhongli only felt that it was a bit difficult to face Hu Tao's grandfather.

After a long silence, Zhongli said with a complicated mood:

"Regarding you becoming a ghost cultivator… have you considered what your grandfather would think?"

224. Hu Tao: So what if I'm a ghost cultivator! Zhongli even invites gods!

"I think grandfather would definitely support me very much!"

Hu Tao looked at Zhongli with a convinced face.

Anyway, she has already brought out the Myriad Ghost Records, and she can't enter the Scripture Pavilion again this week.

She has to cultivate this Myriad Ghost Records whether she wants to or not!

Hu Tao has no way back, and she doesn't think she needs a way back.

Zhongli was a bit melancholy.

The dignified Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, in charge of Liyue's life, death, yin, and yang, every generation of Wangsheng Funeral Parlor masters takes sending souls to the afterlife and maintaining life, death, yin, and yang as their own responsibility.

When it came to Hu Tao

How did she suddenly become a ghost cultivator?

Can the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor still be the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor?

At this moment, Zhongli suddenly felt a bit ashamed of Hu Tao's grandfather's trust.

Hu Tao

He didn't watch over her!

Hu Tao didn't care about Zhongli's thoughts. Even if she knew, she would probably retort to Zhongli when she left Shushan.

You, Zhongli, the dignified Geo Archon, can cultivate the God-Inviting Art, so is there a problem with her, Hu Tao, learning the Myriad Ghost Records?

Ningguang and the others, who knew the duties of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, also looked at Hu Tao with complicated moods.

For a moment, they weren't sure if they could continue to entrust the funeral industry of Liyue to the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor in the future.

What if a family member says they want to send a soul to the afterlife, and Hu Tao turns around and refines them into a ghost? That would be a big joke.

But…

Hu Tao has strong principles, she shouldn't do this kind of thing… right?

"What do you want to ask?"

Jiang Yan watched a great show, especially Zhongli's complicated, tangled, and even faintly guilty expression.

It really broadened Jiang Yan's horizons.

But he still withdrew his thoughts and asked Hu Tao back.

"That…"

Hu Tao scratched her cheek and said in a low voice:

"Sect Master, if I cultivate the Myriad Ghost Records, can I only continue on the path of a ghost cultivator in the future?"

"Also, can the ghosts I command have their own consciousness and intelligence?"

Jiang Yan stared at Hu Tao, with some divine light flickering in his eyes.

"Regarding the question of your future path, you don't have to worry. Although you cultivate ghost cultivation techniques, it doesn't mean you can only walk to the end of the path of a ghost cultivator for the rest of your life."

"In fact, you can't be considered a complete ghost cultivator."

"A true ghost cultivator is cultivated from a soul, you can at most be considered a demonic cultivator."

Zhongli, who had barely accepted some things on the side, heard Jiang Yan say this and was instantly broken again.

Demonic cultivator

That's even worse than a ghost cultivator!

"In fact, your cultivation of the Myriad Ghost Records is also a good thing for you."

Jiang Yan chuckled and stared at Hu Tao meaningfully.

"You yourself are connected to the boundary between life and death in Teyvat, and you understand soul matters better than others."

"And the Myriad Ghost Records, if someone else got it, maybe I would advise them not to kill innocent people indiscriminately to create vengeful ghosts."

"But for you, I am relieved."

"In the past, the master of the Small Fengdu used the Myriad Ghost Records to slaughter everyone in a small world, creating vengeful ghosts, merging them, and achieving the Ten Directions Ghost Emperor."

"What he did, can it be described as just harmful to heaven and reason?"

"But you are different. Your bottom line for life and death is very firm. I don't need to advise you on anything extra."

"Moreover, with the Myriad Ghost Records in hand, you can not only refine dead souls but also send souls to the afterlife better."

"This is a meritorious act. Doing more soul-sending will also be good for your future cultivation."

"I think you already have a bottom line in your heart. You can use the souls of those who harm the world as a foundation to refine them and achieve your Ghost Domain."

"Even the dead souls of demonic beasts, you can use."

"As for intelligence, it all depends on yourself. If you are willing to keep it, you can keep it. If you want to erase it, it's just a blink of an eye."

"The dead souls controlled by your Myriad Ghost Records cannot disobey your will."

Hearing this, Hu Tao breathed a sigh of relief.
