Tree King: What? I've become the Abundant Pharmacist?

Chapter 316 Requiem and Funeral

"It seems they didn't come to the Shence Prefecture today."

"They seem to have gone to Sichen Palace today," Xing said after thinking for a moment.

"Sichen Palace?" March 7th asked in confusion.

“Today is the day of the funeral rites in Louvre,” Eve said.

"In remembrance of the disaster in Louvre, we also remember those who died."

"The dead? Speaking of which, Eve, didn't you resurrect everyone?" March 7 asked in confusion.

She still remembered that the ancient tree Eve summoned still stood in Dan Ding Si, replacing the Jian Mu.

“Not everyone,” Eve shook her head.

"A person whose soul has been destroyed can never be resurrected."

"In addition, those who have already become demonic beings also belong to this category."

"Their souls are overwhelmed and utterly lost."

"Even if it's just a little bit, I can do it."

“For example, Tingyun,” Eve sighed.

"Miss Tingyun..."

March 7th and the stars both fell silent.

Yes, Miss Tingyun, who had always followed them and called them her benefactor, is gone.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, it became a phantom.

"Miss Tingyun, is she really dead?" March 7th asked sadly.

Eve shook her head slightly. "I didn't find her soul back then."

March 7th fell silent.

"Let's go check out Xingcha Sea," Xing said quietly.

"Mm." March 7th nodded silently.

Eve was the same; the three of them, who had been relaxed and cheerful just moments before, walked heavily toward the Starry Sea.

Star Chariot Sea, Sichen Palace.

Yu Kong's expression was grave. "In that case, please convey my message to the Ten Kings..."

Xueyi stood in front of Yukong and nodded mechanically.

"I will deliver the message, and I also ask the captain to take care of his grief."

At this moment, Xueyi noticed that someone had arrived, so she continued, "Since we have a guest, I will take my leave."

After Yuki left, Himeko and Welt Yang came over.

Upon seeing them, Yu Kong sighed: "You two... On behalf of the entire Tianbo Division, I would like to express my gratitude to the Train Corps for saving Luofu during the Star Core Cataclysm."

Valte nodded and said regretfully, "Lord Yukong must have already heard about Miss Tingyun..."

"I know. I understand that the battle report Fu Xuan sent is true." Yu Kong said with some sadness.

Himeko hesitated for a moment, then took out a broken fan from her pack and handed it to Yu Kong.

"These are things left behind by Miss Tingyun..."

Yu Kong stared at the fan, slightly lost in thought, silently chanting, "Stopping Clouds..."

"I still find it hard to believe that battle report really wasn't a clumsy joke?"

"Antimatter Legion on the Immortal Ship? 'Tingyun'... is she in disguise some kind of Annihilation Lord? I don't believe it..."

Despite experiencing the great calamity of Luofu, her miraculous resurrection in the end made her still unable to believe it all.

"How could Tingyun, who worked with me for over thirty years and once helped me manage the affairs of the Tianbo Bureau, possibly be a monster in disguise? Where is the original her now?"

As he spoke, Yu Kong's voice trembled with a hint of tears.

Himeko looked at Yukong with pity, "Miss Yukong..."

She felt great sympathy for Yu Kong's plight.

This reminded her of everything she had experienced back then.

Realizing his lapse in composure, Yu Kong quickly wiped his eyes and said, "I'm sorry... I understand... I understand. I just can't accept it right now..."

"Thank you for bringing Tingyun's things back to Sichen Palace. We have experienced far too much during this Star Core Cataclysm."

"I would like to invite you all, as witnesses to this battle, to participate in the 'Memorial Service' held by the Tianbo Division for the fallen. What do you all think?"

"A memorial service?" Walter Young asked, puzzled.

"In the words of the short-lived species, it's a funeral," Yu Kong explained.

"But for the immortal beings on the immortal ship, what happens after death has always been a distant and vague concept."

"Under normal circumstances, before the signs of a demonic spirit appear, a guide from the Ten Kings Division will lead the immortal ship passengers into the Hall of Cause and Effect, where they will leave behind their life experiences before returning to oblivion."

People have become accustomed to replacing elaborate funeral rites with brief farewells.

"The only ones who value the afterlife ceremony are us fox people with limited lifespans," Yu Kong sighed helplessly.

"In this disaster, countless Cloud Riders died in the line of duty or fell into demonic possession."

"None of them could be saved."

Yu Kong sighed. Those who had transformed into demonic beings did not revive under the ancient tree.

Because their souls were overwhelmed and lost.

"The Palace of Cause and Effect did not have time to record their life stories before they passed away."

"All the hasty deaths and unfulfilled wishes remind us that... the life of the immortals is still just a trivial and finite moment."

"I want to give those who have passed away a final resting place. In the manner of the Heavenly Ship Bureau, with the funeral rites of the Fox People."

"Place the relics of the deceased on the star raft, send them out of the celestial vessel, sail into the star, and shine with them."

"This is not only to comfort the deceased and the souls who can no longer speak to us, but also to comfort their blood relatives, close friends, and all the inhabitants of the Celestial Ship who remain in the mortal world..."

“I also hope to bid farewell to Tingyun through this ceremony. This is my personal wish.”

"Although she was not a Cloud Rider who died on the battlefield, she is still a member of my Tianbo Division and a victim of this catastrophe."

“I want to use this ceremony to separate my subordinate from the Great Lord of Annihilation who has taken her identity and appeared in her guise.”

As Yu Kong spoke, his eyes gradually hardened, as if he had found something he had to do.

"Please accept my condolences, Miss Yukong," Himeko said, trying to comfort her.

"Miss Yukong, do you believe that Miss Tingyun is still alive?" Walter Yang had already figured out what Yukong meant.

Yu Kong nodded. "Yes... I still don't want to believe it. I will definitely find out Ting Yun's whereabouts in my own way. But right now, I... I..."

"This is the only thing I can do for her," Yu Kong choked up.

"Ladies and gentlemen, may I take the liberty of inviting you here to witness this together?"

Just then, a somewhat dejected voice came from behind them.

"Um, can we join too?"
