Chapter 163 Traces discovered

Just as Li Ge started running for the hermit's scabbard, a conversation was also going on in the Ubuyashiki family's mansion, the headquarters of the Demon Slayer Corps.

The location was the courtyard where Rige met with Uyashiki Yaoya last time.

"Is Jiguoyuan Yi's training finally over?"

Ubuyashiki Yoshiya once again came to the corridor connecting the courtyard, listening to the report of the Butterfly Ninja kneeling in front of him, and began to talk to himself.

"Yes." Butterfly Ninja closed his eyes, smiled, lowered his head and reported: "This is something I personally admit, and there is nothing wrong with it."

"That's good." Ubuyashiki Yoshiya asked in a gentle tone: "In your opinion, what are the results of Tsukuni Enichi's practice this time?"

Faced with this question, Butterfly Ninja answered without any hesitation.

"It should be as you wish."

What this sentence means is probably only understood by Ubuyashiki Yōya and the other pillars.

The implication of the butterfly ninja was that what Ubuyashiki Yōya said here last time was by no means empty talk.

"Really? Do you think so too?"

Ubuyashiki Yōya seemed happy.

"There is no way. As someone who has seen the results of that practice with my own eyes, I really can't imagine anyone who can win the successor king." Butterfly Ninja said in a low voice: "If our enemy is stronger than such a successor king, then it is really impossible. It’s disappointing.”

The Butterfly Ninja came to this point.

She really felt that if the enemy was stronger than Li Ge, then the Demon Slayer Squad would simply disband on the spot. There was no way humans could defeat such monsters.

But on the other hand -

"If the opponent is not as strong as Tsukoku-kun, then the Demon Slayer Squad's long-cherished wish may be the closest to being fulfilled in our generation."

Speaking of this, Butterfly Ninja couldn't help but reveal complex and expectant emotions in his eyes.

"Most definitely."

Ubuyashiki Yaoya spoke decisively.

"It's not easy to see the opportunity to end all this. We must let all tragedies end in our generation."

"The stain of the Ubuyashiki clan and our shame must be washed away in this generation."

"This time, we must kill him."

Ubuyashiki Yaoya's voice sounded slowly.

"We must kill that ghost king, Oni Wu Tsuji Muzan."

Hearing this, the butterfly ninja lowered his head again.

"yes."

The response echoed in the courtyard and did not fall for a long time.

…………

At the same time, in a deep mountain not far from the Uyashiki family's residence, several people were moving some things towards the direction of the town.

Wearing uniforms, with hoods covering their faces, they looked a bit like professionals from a secret agency.

This is also true.

These people are hidden.

The so-called hidden refers to the post-processing team of the Demon Slayer Corps, which is responsible for the finishing work after the Demon Slayer Corps fights ghosts as well as chores outside of the battle.

In other words, Hidden is a logistics force for the Demon Slayer Corps composed of non-combatants. The internal members are mostly composed of members who have no swordsmanship ability. The conditions of personnel composition are somewhat similar to Butterfly House. They are all forces supporting the Demon Slayer Corps from the rear.

At this time, several hidden members were transporting a batch of supplies to the Demon Slayer Headquarters.

"Be careful and don't bump into it. These are all daily necessities that the Lord and the pillars will use."

"Are you going to move directly to the mansion?"

"Who can change hands with me?"

They warned each other and headed towards the town.

However, among these people, some people soon noticed something unusual.

"what is that?"

A hidden member pushing a cart pointed at the mountain road ahead and made a sound of surprise.

Everyone looked at it.

"pot?"

"Is this a pot?"

"Why did a pot appear in the middle of the road?"

Everyone in hiding looked at each other.

Just as they said, a pot appeared in the center of the mountain road.

That pot looks quite delicate, and it would be very out of place in such a deep mountain road, not to mention that it stands in the middle of the road, which makes people feel strange and abrupt.

"Where did you get the pot?"

A Yin member stepped forward impatiently, preparing to take the pot away.

But at this moment, something amazing happened.

"call!"

Suddenly, a hand popped out of the delicate pot, grabbed the hidden man's head, and dragged him into the pot.

"Pfft!"

A ball of blood suddenly exploded at the mouth of the pot, and the man's screams sounded sharply at first, and then stopped suddenly, losing all movement.

"What……!?"

"Is it, is it a ghost!?"

"It's a ghost! The ghost is coming!"

The remaining Yin suddenly fell into a state of panic, and ran away reflexively to keep themselves away from the pot.

Unfortunately, when they all rushed into the grass, it didn't take long for them to scream one after another, and it took a while before they regained their composure.

At this time, a person emerged from the blood-stained pot.

"Hey, hey, hey, it looks like I caught a big fish this time."

The person covering her mouth and snickering like this was not a young girl in her prime, but a particularly ugly alien.

He was all white, like a wriggling fish, with purple fins on the top of his head, a mouth where his eyes were, and the eyes were on his forehead and mouth. The eyeballs were yellow, and the lips were It is green, with several small arms growing from several places on its head and body. It is a complete alien shape, without any characteristics that humans should have.

If you look closely, you can see that there are words engraved on his eyes on his forehead and mouth.

One eye is engraved with - "五".

One eye is engraved with - "Wind".

It is the jade pot that is in the twelve ghost moons.

"I didn't expect that we, who were originally following the swordsman named Tsukikuni Enichi under the orders of Master Muzan, would actually find the headquarters of the Demon Slayer Squad in the process. This is really a great achievement. Boo hoo hoo.”

Yuhu twisted his body happily and made a sound in the direction of the grass.

"You think so? Half-day dog?"

Following the excited voice of Yu Hu, a figure slowly crawled out from the grass.

It was an old man with eyes turned back, no numbers in his eyes, a swollen forehead, horns on the top of his head, and a Prajna-like face.

"It's terrible... it's terrible..."

The old man named Hantengu was trembling and lying on the ground, saying this.

"Originally, there was only one opponent, but now it has become the entire Demon Slayer Squad. It's so scary, eh, eh, eh..."

Bantengu acted as if he was so frightened that he cried on the spot.

"Oh, if you say that, then I will have to take all the credit for this time. Is that okay? Whoops!"

Yuhu stuck out his long tongue, twisting it and laughing at the same time.

"Easy..." Han Tiangu huddled on the ground and said timidly: "Are you going to bully me too? Bullying a weak person like me? It's terrible! It's terrible!"

"Whoops!" Yuhu licked his lips and said with a smile, "Don't be kidding, Hantengu, you are a ghost with numbers above me. You can't be considered a weakling, right?"

"Hey." The dog hid in the grass for a long time, as if he didn't hear Yuhu's words, and said tremblingly: "I have to report the matter to Lord Wuhan, so that Lord Wuhan can protect me, a weakling. .”

"Don't forget to mention my name?" Yuhu shouted in the direction of the grass, then looked in the direction of the town and smiled: "It seems that I will soon have a good one in my collection." It’s art.”

"Which pillar should I use to make a new pot?"

"You have to think about it carefully, hehe."

…………

"What? Find the headquarters of the Demon Slayer Corps?"

In the study room of a mansion, a dark and dangerous voice sounded.

"Did you follow the human who calls himself Enichi Tsukuni and find the headquarters of the Ubuyashiki clan?"

The man in the dark sneered.

"That's fine. Those flies from the Demon Slayer Corps have been pestering me for so many years. It's time to get rid of this eyesore."

With that said, the man pondered for a while, and then said something into the void.

"Bantian Gou, you and Yuhu are on standby for the time being. I'll ask Fallen Girl to go to your side."

"The base camp of the Uyashiki clan and the headquarters of the Demon Slayer Corps will always have a few pillars stationed there. If there are too many pillars left there, if you two take action, something might slip through the net."

"This time, the three of you work together to bring me the heads of Uyashiki. Don't let me down."

As the cold voice fell, the voice of Ban Tiangu also rang in the man's heart.

"As you command, Master Wuhan."

Only then did the submissive voice disappear.

"Uyashiki..."

In the study, violent whispers echoed.

"This time, you're done."

…………

"Master Wuhan asked us to stand by and wait for Fallen Princess to come to support, Yiyi."

Deep in the mountains, the dog crawled out again for a long time, crawled out half of its body, and howled in the direction of the jade pot.

"Falling Princess? That useless oiran?" Yuhu stopped twisting his body and said sarcastically: "What is she here for? Is she a hindrance?"

"Hey." Bantian Gou said timidly: "This is Lord Wuhan's order. If you disobey it, it will be terrible, very terrible."

"...Okay." Yuhu said a little unhappy: "Since the land of Shangxian is also coming, then this time everything will be foolproof."

"Three Shangxian shot together, never happened in a hundred years." Bantian Gou sobbed softly: "The last time there were more than two Shangxian together, it was the call one hundred and thirteen years ago. After a long time, One hundred and thirteen years ago, half of the stringers actually performed the mission together, and half...three...an odd number...! Horrible! Horrible!"

"Hey, hey, I'm getting excited, right?"

Yuhu opened his hands and twisted his body again, his voice becoming more and more excited.

"I will take advantage of this opportunity to create more works."

"Then it's time to work."

“Boohoo…boobooboo…”

In the darkness, the creepy laughter lingered for a long time, as if to reveal the coming storm.
