Chapter 398 Grandfather and Grandson Reunion, Hu Tao's Surprise
“I am not interested in this. Since Ronawa created this realm, I have only one mission: to find the Saint of Netherfire.”
"I don't have time to chat with you anymore, hurry up and take me back!"
Realizing that the Underworld King was completely indifferent to the battle on the surface, Hu Tao angrily stabbed him with her spear.
The next moment, Hu Tao's weapon turned into an ethereal phantom.
"This is the realm of the dead. Here, everything is a spirit, including myself—how could your weapon harm me? Do not be hasty. Sit on my throne and silently recall each of your passings, as many as you can remember. Carefully comprehend the intentions that each being conveyed to you during their passing—the power of the blessing of rebirth lies within them."
After saying this, the King of the Underworld disappeared without a trace.
Upon hearing this, Hu Tao angrily punched the air a few times.
"What Saint of Netherfire? This wicked Netherworld King must have been sent by Heaven to imprison this Hall Master. Is he afraid of this Hall Master's strength?"
As soon as he finished speaking, an old yet familiar face quietly appeared on the throne in front of Hu Tao.
"Cough cough."
Hearing the moderate volume of the sound, Hu Tao glanced at it casually.
"Hmm...? Grandpa!"
After seeing the other person's face clearly, Hu Tao subconsciously rubbed her eyes and took a few steps back in disbelief.
"No, it must be a hallucination..."
"Little Walnut, is that you? You've come...to see Grandpa?"
Grandpa Hu Tao, equally incredulous, also hesitantly raised his hand.
"Grandpa, it really is you!"
Hearing the familiar tone and manner of the voice, Hu Tao excitedly rushed forward, almost tripping over the steps beneath the throne.
Seeing the clumsy Hu Tao, Hu Tao's grandfather quickly bent down and supported her.
"My little Walnut, it's been so many years, you've grown up, Grandpa misses you so much..."
Looking at Hu Tao with tears in her eyes, Grandpa Hu Tao was also filled with emotion.
"Grandpa... why are you here, Walnut... I miss you so much every day. To fulfill your long-cherished wish, look, does the hat on my head look familiar? Hehe, the Hall of Rebirth is thriving under my management now~"
“Little Walnut… your hands are calloused. It’s my fault for making you bear such a heavy burden all by yourself at such a young age.”
After touching Walnut's hand, Grandpa Walnut choked up instantly.
"Grandpa, don't cry, I'm perfectly fine! You still haven't told me why you're here."
"Actually, the past masters of the Hall of Rebirth have shared all their destiny with each person they have helped to be reborn, so they have the most wonderful life choices when they pass away. But... Grandpa, the one I worry about the most is you—how can I bear to enter a new life..."
After saying that, he took a breath and continued.
“A year before my time was up, a man named Zhongli came to visit me. He said, ‘One day, your granddaughter will stand on her own and come to take you home from the underworld. Please wait for her.’ At first, I didn’t believe him and even tried to drive him away… But he accurately named the past hall masters of the Hall of Rebirth, information that only the hall master could access. With some of his unintentional hints, I became convinced that he was actually… the Rock King Emperor.”
"He's actually a guest elder?!"
