"Greetings, Lord!"
In the courtyard, there were eight pillar level experts, including [Rock Pillar], [Flame Pillar], [Water Pillar], [Snake Pillar], [Sunset Pillar], [Sound Pillar], [Love Pillar], and [Insect Pillar]. They all knelt down on one knee in front of Fu Yaozai, who walked out of the room, and spoke respectfully.
"Several months have passed in the blink of an eye. To be able to see all of you again, I feel much better."
Fu Yaozai walked to the edge of the corridor with the help of two white-haired children and sat down with a warm smile on his face. "There's no need to be so reserved. Everyone, stand up and speak."
"I've gathered everyone here because the matter of Tanji Jiro and Mi Douzi is very important, so I want to discuss it with everyone."
"Forgive me for being blunt, Lord!"
Yusi Tianyuan's expression was still respectful, but the words he said made Tanji Jiro feel abnormally cold. "I think that since she's a ghost, there's no need to let her live! Also, Tanji Jiro, who tried to protect the ghost, and Mr. Purgatory's stepson, Ryuga, all of them need to be punished! "
"I agree with [Sound Pillar], Lord," Yusi Tianyuan said with a cold voice.
Snake Pillar said in his usual snake-like cold tone, "The Ghost Killing Team has never let evil spirits go. Any behavior that condones ghosts may lead to bad consequences in the future. As long as they are ghosts, they should be killed without exception."
"Namo Amitabha."
Lamenting Yu Xingming softly chanted a Buddhist mantra with pity on his face. "How pitiful. Seeing your sister turn into a ghost every day must be very painful. As long as you cut off this pain, you'll be able to relax. I also agree with killing ghosts."
"Please wait a moment. Mi Douzi hasn't eaten a single person since she turned into a ghost!"
Tanji Jiro gritted his teeth and hurriedly spoke, trying to defend his sister. "Moreover, we've only been trying to get rid of ghosts. Mi Douzi has also helped me kill ghosts before."
"Your words can't be used as testimony."
Barnet glanced at him and said coldly, "It hasn't eaten humans yet, but that doesn't mean it won't in the future. As long as there is a slight possibility, it must be killed. It's not strange for creatures like ghosts to go berserk when they can't control their desire to eat humans."
"Moreover, in the end, this is only your side of the story. I don't even know if I can believe it."
Tanji Jiro choked on the spot, his eyes revealing a strong sense of helplessness.
This scene was almost the same as what he had guessed. The Ghost Killer Team would not ignore the existence of ghosts. It did not matter whether the ghost ate people or not. As long as it was a ghost, they would eliminate it. This was the style of the Ghost Killer Team.
This was because most of the people who joined the Ghost Killer Team had experienced their families and friends being killed and eaten by ghosts. Almost everyone had an extreme hatred for ghosts.
Tanji Jiro looked at the lord who was sitting not far away in the corridor.
Previously, Liu Xia had told him that he had already discussed Mi Douzi's matter with Milord and had even made an agreement with Milord, so Milord shouldn't make things difficult for his little sister.
As if sensing Tanji Jiro's gaze, the lord's smile did not fade and he began to narrate.
"As for whether Tanji Jiro's words are true or not, I have a letter here."
The Lord turned his head and cast his soulless eyes at a white-haired child beside him. "Bi Fang, share your beliefs with everyone."
"Yes."
The white-haired child nodded, then took out a white envelope from his chest and took out a letter.
"This letter was sent by the former Water Pillar, Lord Lintaku Shukinji. I will read part of the letter to everyone."
"Please allow Tanji Jiro to be with Mi Douzi, who has become a ghost. Although Mi Douzi has become a ghost, she is still able to restrain herself with her strong mental strength. She still has the rationality of a human. Even when she was hungry, she did not eat a single person. She has been recovering her strength through sleep. Although it is hard to believe, it is the truth."
"If Mi Douzi attacks anyone after that, Saomon Tanjiro, Lintaku Shukinji, and Tomioka Yoshihide will all commit seppuku as an apology."
Ryuga was sitting at the back, but he still heard the white-haired child's words clearly.
Lintaku Shukinji seemed to be Tanji Jiro's trainer, and also the teacher of the current Water Pillar, Tomioka Yoshihide. His attitude towards this matter surprised Ryuga.
Normally, if something like this happened to his disciple, in order to protect himself, he would have expelled his disciple from the school. Not to mention, he would not be able to guarantee his disciple's safety with his own life.
What was this?
Was Tan Zhilang's charisma too outstanding? Or was a gentle person treated with gentleness?
Ryuga was indifferent.
He did not have feelings, so he did not understand the thoughts of Lintaku Shukinji and Tomioka Yoshihide. However, as long as these two people were willing to protect Saomon Tanjiro, then they would be on his side. This was a good thing, at least it was much easier than letting him face the blame of all the Pillars alone.
Tanji Jiro's face showed an extremely moved expression. In this situation where he was surrounded by enemies, it must be a very touching thing for him to have such a sensei and senior brother who were willing to die with him.
Ryuga looked at Tanji Jiro.
Touched … This was a feeling he could not understand.
"So what if he committed seppuku?"
Before the people in the room could say anything, a low and hoarse voice came from outside the room. "If something really happened, it would be too late no matter who committed seppuku. A dead human cannot be saved!"
Along with the voice, a figure walked into the courtyard.
It was a young man in his early twenties, nearly 1.8 meters tall, with a white hedgehog head and three long and wide scars on his face, which made him look quite fierce and ferocious.
He was wearing a white Haori with the word "Kill" on it. The front of his shirt was open, revealing his strong muscles, which looked very wild.
"My Lord, forgive me for being late."
The person walked to the middle of the Pillars, knelt down on one knee in front of the delivery room, and lowered his head in a gesture of asking for forgiveness.
"It's okay, as long as you're okay."
Fu Yaozai didn't care. He just smiled and brushed the matter aside.
"Shimiya, I know you have a strong hostility toward ghosts, but this brother and sister are different."
The delivery room continued: "Tanji Jiro, Mi Douzi, and Ryuga, when the three of them were in Asakusa Prefecture in Tokyo, they had direct contact with the Demon Dancer Ma No Misery. I think this is a very important experience."
