Report

Purgatory Xingshu Lang was an overly passionate and upright person. Although he was very accomplished in swordsmanship, when it came to scheming and scheming, he was far inferior to Ryuga.

Ryuga could easily guess what he was thinking. It was nothing more than a little scheming. It would be strange if he could hide it from Ryuga, who had been an assassin since he was a child, who had climbed his way up in society, relying on his own strength, and who had battled with all sorts of monsters for two years.

With his powerful insight, although he could not tell what the other party was thinking with just a glance, he could at least put himself in the other party's shoes and observe the other party's body language. He could simulate the other party's thought process.

Seeing through his plans was as simple as that.

Perfunctory Yaozai continued to smile, but the smile on his face was somewhat helpless.

Basically, Ryuga was right.

"As for Tanji Jiro and Mi Douzi, I can make the decision. As long as Mi Douzi doesn't eat anyone, I will not target them."

Perfunctory Yaozai nodded, then continued, "In truth, even if you didn't say it, I was planning to do the same.

"From Zhuo Ya's report, I already know that the three of you have had direct experience with No Misery, right? This is an extremely important matter. Our Ghost Killers Squad has not had a direct confrontation with No Misery for many years. Anyone who has had direct contact with him is extremely valuable.

"You, Tanji Jiro, and Mi Douzi, unless you have directly violated the squad's rules, I do not intend to impose any punishment on you. You can rest assured on this point."

Although beheading a member of the Ghost Killers Squad who had defected to Wraith highlighted his cruel personality, at least it did not violate the squad's rules. Squad members who had defected to Wraith had to be beheaded anyway. The only difference was who did it.

He was not worried that the blood hidden in his zither case would be discovered. When he had met up with Zhu Shi, he had already confirmed that Zhuo Ya was not in the vicinity. The main reason was that Zhuo Ya, as his lord, could not possibly know that Ryuga had the Ghost King's blood in his hands.

Ryuga nodded.

It was indeed a lot easier to talk to this man. He didn't need to explain unnecessary things, nor did he need to make useless threats. He even took the initiative to comfort him. Even in Ryuga's eyes, he was a rare and wise person.

To date, no one had been able to make Ryuga give such an evaluation.

The [Yin-yang Style] was an exception. It was a person whose entire body was shrouded in mist. Even Ryuga couldn't see through it.

"If that's the case, then I can answer your question."

Ryuga continued, "There's no special reason. It's just that becoming a high-ranking member of the Ghost Killers will help me find more powerful ghosts."

"Not all ghosts are evil. Since there are humans in this world who can't resist the temptation and choose to side with evil ghosts, then there are naturally ghosts who feel guilty about their actions and decide not to eat humans. What I hate is not the ghosts, but the acts of evil that I can't stand, that's all."

Without a doubt, Ryuga had lied once again.

To him, this was indeed a common occurrence.

Just like how he had deceived the [Yin-yang Style], [Miyamoto Musashi], [Shan Yi] and the others, as long as there was a need, he didn't mind using lies to avoid trouble and gain benefits.

From the very beginning, he wasn't some kind of gentleman.

Although he had his own principles, he would only act according to his own interests. If there was a conflict with his own interests, then even if it was his principles, he would directly tear them apart.

Just like how although he regarded the relationship between Tanji Jiro and Mi Douzi as a precious thing, when he was scheming for the Ghost King's blood, he still naturally used Tanji Jiro as bait to attract the attention of No Misery, while he hid in the dark to snipe and sneak attack.

The reason why he was willing to help these two people when they were discovered by the Purgatory Xingshu Lang was only because he saw that the Purgatory Xingshu Lang wouldn't kill him. If the Purgatory Xingshu Lang was really a person who couldn't tolerate sand in his eyes, no matter how passionate the relationship between the siblings was, he definitely wouldn't stand up for them.

Ryuga didn't care whether this lie would be discovered by the production house or not, because even if he found out, he wouldn't easily touch him under the circumstances that he had the value of 'being able to produce the katana'.

The reason why he gave this reason was only to calm him down, so that he wouldn't guard against him like he was guarding against a thief. Otherwise, it would definitely cause trouble for him to seek benefits.

"Is that so? I understand. "

The production house pondered for a while, not knowing if he believed Ryuga's words, but in the end, he didn't continue to ask. Instead, he said, "I will tell the Pillars about the matter of the sparring. After that, let the children of [Yin] take you to the Pillars' residences. I will also tell Xingshou Lang about Tanji Jiro and Mi Douzi."

"Then I will thank you, my lord."

Ryuga sat up, bowed politely to the production house, and then walked out of the courtyard.

Asuka's lifeless eyes stared straight ahead, a warm smile still on his face.

"It's just that you can't tolerate evil deeds, and it has nothing to do with whether you are a ghost or not … Your family was clearly killed by a ghost, but you can still say such things. If it's true, then it's really amazing."

However, he couldn't tell whether Ryuga's words were true or false, but from his actions so far, this reason could indeed explain all kinds of problems. Whether it was beheading a traitor or protecting Mi Douzi, it could all be explained.

"Well, let's continue to watch. I'm not so bad that I can't even tolerate people."

The production house sat in the corridor, facing the sunlight, and a relieved expression appeared on his face.



Ryuga waited at the entrance of the courtyard for ten minutes, and Purgatory Xingshu Lang came out with a refreshed expression.

After Ryuga finished the meeting with his lord, he immediately went in to report the process of the mission to his lord, and then told his lord about Tanji Jiro and Mi Douzi.

Purgatory Xingshu Lang had a 'I understand' smile on his lord's face, and then he came out.

But in the end, he didn't get an answer from his lord on how to deal with Tanji Jiro and Mi Douzi, and he didn't know that Ryuga and his lord had secretly reached an agreement.

"Alright, my place is very close to here. Although it's not the main residence, it's not small, enough for two people."

Purgatory Xingshu Lang brought Ryuga out of the production house, and walked in a certain direction outside the mountain, with a very energetic smile on his face.

"Later on, prepare to go out with me! I will teach you well and turn your awkward personality around! "
