King Hao walked towards the ghost uncle and said, "Uncle, you look so worried, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?"

The old man sighed and nodded. "Actually...actually, my son passed away much earlier than me. I don't know if anyone is willing to help find his body and bury it. Can I ask you for help? After you're done, I can give you the Mora hidden under my house as a reward."

Prince Hao looked at Zhongli, a questioning look in his eyes. Zhongli frowned and said slowly, "Retrieving a corpse from abroad is still quite difficult."

The ghost old man quickly said: "My son is here too, he can take you there."

The ghostly young man nodded slightly and continued, "Um...it's best to bring some skilled people with you, as there are quite a few monsters in that place."

At this moment, Hu Tao suddenly appeared from behind and shouted excitedly, "Ah! We at Wangsheng Hall have accepted this job. Luckily, our hall master came along, otherwise we would have missed out on a really big deal."

The ghost youth asked doubtfully, "Business? But we didn't leave much money. My corpse only had 1500 Mora and some low-quality equipment."

Walnut waved her hands and explained, "No, no, no, our prices at Wangsheng Hall are indeed a bit high, but Wangsheng Hall doesn't just want to make money, it also wants to earn merit."

The old ghost looked at everyone gratefully, then whispered, "There are 800 million Mora hidden under my house. You can take it after the task is completed."

Hu Tao's eyes lit up, but she felt it was inappropriate and said hesitantly, "This...you're leaving me with a fortune. How embarrassing."

King Hao: "Then let's go to the Seven Heavens Statue."

Zhongli: "You are planning to do that. I see. If you do that, then Bimo La Wangsheng Hall will naturally accept it."

Walnut: "Huh? What?"

The ghost old man and ghost young man thought of something and were surprised: "Contract?"

Zhongli smiled slightly and nodded.

Walnut also reacted: "Yes, the contract must be carried out under the witness of our Lord Yan. This is much fairer."

Ghost Youth: "Great, this way, I don't have to worry too much."

Under the Seven Days Statue, both the Rebirth Hall and the Ghosts arrived, and Zhongli began to create a contract of rules.

Zhongli: "The contract we signed with the power of the Seven Heavens Statue will incur severe penalties if not fulfilled. Hall Master, have you considered this?"

Walnut: "I'm not afraid. I always keep my word!"

Ghost Father and Son: "Then let's get started."

Zhongli: "Contract terms: Wangshengtang will help Li Jian retrieve the body from a secret place in Fengdan and bring it back to Liyue for burial. Li Zhe will receive 800 million Mora from his lifetime as payment. Please confirm with both parties."

Walnut said without hesitation: "No problem."

Li Zhe smiled slyly: "There is a problem."

Everyone: (?д?;)

Li Zhe smiled and said, "There are still 1000 million Moras hidden under the tree. I will also hand these over to the Rebirth Hall. After all, I can't take anything away with me after I die. It would be a waste to let those thieves get away with it."

Li Jian felt relieved after seeing his father make this decision. "That's fine, but I have a daughter who's being fostered with a relative in Liyue Harbor. I hope you can take care of her, too."

King Hao nodded: "Don't worry." He thought to himself: Who is so bold as to go against the agreement made with the dead? Although I dare, I am not that free.

Walnut: "Of course, we in Wangsheng Hall will definitely get things done properly!" She patted her chest and promised.

Zhongli looked at Hu Tao's confident look, smiled slightly, and secretly admired Hu Tao's courage and determination: This mission is not easy for the hall master, but... with him here, it shouldn't be a problem. His strength is a mystery.

Zhongli nodded and said, "Then, the contract will be amended. Wangshengtang will help Li Jian retrieve the body from a secret place in Fengdan and bring it back to Liyue for burial. Li Zhe will receive 1800 million Mora, which he had hidden away during his lifetime. Please confirm this with both parties."

As the contract was signed, a mysterious power enveloped them. Walnut felt a heavy sense of responsibility, fully aware of the importance and difficulty of this mission. But she did not retreat, instead, she was filled with fighting spirit.

Zhongli: "The contract has been formed. Those who violate it will be punished by eating rocks." At the same time, the Seven Sky Statue also glowed, and a golden shadow glowed in the night sky of Liyue. The ancient atmosphere also enveloped the entire Liyue, which looked very impressive.

Hao Wang: Oh my goodness! This scared me. Are the special effects that awesome?

Inside a building floating above Liyue—

A dignified and elegant white-haired woman looked at the sudden strange vision and murmured to herself, "A law contract... a contract witnessed by the Rock King Emperor? How curious."

"Let's get to work without delay!" Hu Tao looked at King Hao and Zhongli.

Li Jian hurriedly stopped the two and said, "The dead don't need sleep, but the living do. You should rest for a night before going to work. After all, there are still many dangers on the way there. It will take at least a month."

Prince Hao, however, looked nonchalant and waved his hand, saying, "Don't worry, it's just a short flight to Fontainebleau."

Hu Tao's eyes lit up after hearing this, and she looked at King Hao and said, "Yes, you are an immortal."

The Li family father and son were also shocked when they heard this, and asked in unison: "Immortal, Immortal?"

Hu Tao looked at King Hao with a proud smile and said, "I think his name is Chaos, True Purity, Ethereal, Void, Sky-Breaking, Earth-Breaking, Universe-Invincible, Thunderbolt Sword Saint, Eternal Invincibility, World's Number One, Qiuqiu Immortal! Right?"

Li Jian frowned after hearing this and asked in confusion, "Why does this sound like the title of a charlatan?"

The corners of Prince Hao's mouth twitched, helplessly unsure how to explain it, but he still gritted his teeth and rambled on, "That's a title given to me by the outside world. I'm the Free Sword Immortal, a nobody during the Emperor's campaigns. I never imagined that after my resurrection and the several brave deeds I performed, I'd earn this title."

Zhongli coughed lightly and couldn't say anything.

The Li family father and son nodded, but there was still a look of doubt on their faces, as if they did not fully accept this statement.

"So that's how it is..." Father Li muttered to himself, still feeling doubtful. He glanced at his son beside him and found that he was also half-believing and half-doubting.

However, after looking at each other, they both felt that there was no reason for this person to deceive two dead people. After all, what was the point of lying to a dead person?

"You just don't believe it, right? Hall Master, Mr. Zhongli, if you are ready, we will set off for Fontainebleau immediately. Swords are coming--" Countless flying swords came from all directions, and Haowan chose one of them and jumped on it.

The Li family father and son panicked and said, "Ah... this... please forgive us, Immortal. We did not mean to offend you."

"Come up, with the power of immortality, you can touch it too."

After hearing this, the Li family father and son nodded and stepped onto the flying sword.

Walnut also sat on the small raft made of a pile of flying swords, looking excited.

Zhongli was still hesitating, obviously worried about something, but after some consideration, he followed Hu Tao up.

King Hao's mouth twisted, and he had a bold idea...
