"I'm a ghost too."
Just this one sentence caused a great commotion among the Nine Pillars. Wind Pillar, Snake Pillar, Rock Pillar, and even Flame Pillar and Insect Pillar all changed their expressions.
Mingling with ghosts and turning into a ghost themselves were two completely different things.
Mixing with ghosts, if this ghost has never eaten a person and can prove that she won't eat people in the future, under the precedent of Mi Dou Zi, as long as she is dealt with properly, she can be reluctantly let go.
However, turning into a ghost was a taboo in the Yugi Squad, the taboo of taboo.
Any swordsman who betrayed the Yugi Squad and turned into a ghost would be wanted and hunted down by the Yugi Squad. Not only that, but the people related to the swordsman would also be punished. The trainer would have to commit seppuku. If the swordsman was the stepson of a Pillar, that Pillar would have to resign from his position as a Pillar as an apology.
The Yugi Squad was an organization dedicated to killing ghosts. No one was allowed to turn into a ghost. Since most swordsmen hated ghosts, they wouldn't choose to turn into a ghost. Only those who harbored evil intentions would choose to do so.
However, once such a person appeared, the entire Yugi Squad would want to cut him or her into pieces.
Therefore, after Ryuga's words, the atmosphere in the courtyard became tense.
"Is that so … That is to say, you betrayed the Yugi Squad, right?"
The Undying River stood up from the ground. He held the Solar Blade at his waist with both hands and turned around to face Ryuga. His face was full of killing intent.
"Then die!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled out the green Solar Blade from his waist. A sharp wind blade quickly emerged from the blade and dashed toward Ryuga.
"The Undying River!"
"Wait!"
Two voices came from the Pillars, trying to stop him. However, the Undying River was so angry that he completely ignored the shouts. His hatred for ghosts made it impossible for him to show any mercy to them.
Esders didn't do anything to the Undying River who was dashing toward him like a gust of wind. It was time for Ryuga to perform. The Yugi Squad wouldn't cooperate with them if they didn't solve this problem.
"Clang —"
Just as the jade-green long blade was about to reach Ryuga, the tip of the blade was pinched by two fair fingers. In that instant, the long blade stopped in mid-air and the wind blade dissipated, unable to move an inch further.
"Wha —!?"
Undying River Shimi's eyes widened in shock. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't pull the tip of the blade out of the two fingers.
"Last time, when Mi Dou was pregnant, and this time, my situation is also the same. You always lack calm."
Ryuga looked at the Undying River indifferently. The rhythm of her breathing changed slightly. She exerted some force with her wrist and threw the Undying River back. The Undying River fell to the ground between the nine pillars.
Yu Xingming stepped forward and shielded the Undying River behind him. His hands were holding the Buddhist beads around his neck as if he was ready to attack at any moment.
"Please wait a moment, Mr. Yu Xingming. Let's understand the situation clearly first."
Yan Zhu Purgatory Xingshu Lang stopped him. "Let's give him a chance to explain first. No matter what happens later, I, Purgatory Xingshu Lang, will bear the consequences!"
These two people were the ones who tried to stop the Undying River.
Purgatory Xingshu Lang intended to give Ryuga a chance to explain, while Yu Xingming was keenly aware that Ryuga's strength was far beyond the Undying River, so he didn't want to let him die in vain.
Under Purgatory Xingshu Lang's words, Yu Xingming paused for a moment.
"I have a question for everyone."
Before they could come to a conclusion, Ryuga's voice was transmitted to their ears again.
"Do you hate the race of ghosts? Or do you hate the evil deeds committed by ghosts? "
Ryuga glanced at everyone in front of her. "As far as I am concerned, no matter if it is a human or a ghost, in the end, they are just intelligent creatures. It is good to be a human, but there is nothing wrong with being a ghost."
"I'll give you all a choice. If you hate the ghost race, then I'll leave this place right now. If you hate the evil deeds of the ghosts, then I'll give you all a chance to eliminate the Ghost Dancer Yue Wujie."
The motivation of the Ghost Killing Team's swordsmen to kill ghosts, in the end, came from hatred.
Most of them had a blood feud with ghosts, or their family members were killed by ghosts, or their friends were eaten by ghosts, or even themselves were injured by ghosts. Therefore, they hated all ghosts and thought that ghosts were the cause of all tragedies. As long as they killed ghosts, the tragedies in this world would disappear.
This kind of thinking couldn't be considered wrong, but it was also not correct.
As long as they killed all the ghosts, they could avoid the tragedies caused by ghosts. This kind of thinking was the same as killing all the humans, then there would be no sin in this world. Although it was a twisted logic, it still made sense.
"What? A chance to eliminate the Dancing Ghost?! "
The Ghost Killing Team's members, who were attracted by Ryuga, were now attracted by Ryuga's words.
"Do you have any news about the Dancing Ghost?"
"Where is that guy now?"
"How can we eliminate him?"
The scene that was targeting Ryuga a moment ago was now united against the outside world. They released a strong anger and killing intent towards the Dancing Ghost.
In a sense, Ryuga admired the Dancing Ghost's troublemaking skills. To be able to be remembered by so many pillars, and each of them gnashed their teeth and wanted to kill him, this was also a kind of talent.
"I do have news about the Dancing Ghost."
Ryuga nodded, "But that guy is not easy to kill, so I returned to the Ghost Killing Team's headquarters. Now, it depends on your choice. Do you hate ghosts, or do you hate the evil deeds committed by ghosts?"
The Ghost Killing Team's pillar level experts looked at each other for a while, and they all fell into deep thought. Even Lamenting Yu Xingming fell into silence.
At this moment, was the Ghost Killing Ghost's rules more important, or was it more important to kill the Dancing Ghost?
In fact, they all knew in their hearts how to choose. It was easy to distinguish which was more important. However, the Ghost Killing Team was their belief for a long time, and the rules of the Ghost Killing Team were equally sacred in their hearts.
Ryuga's question was like a nail that pierced into their hearts, causing them to almost suffocate.
"Then, let me make the decision."
As if he saw through everyone's dilemma, Chuo Huo smiled faintly, "I don't have long to live, so no matter what, I want to see the scene of the Dancing Ghost's tragic death before I die."
"I hope everyone can fulfill the wish of a dying person like me."
