Zongman: The End of the Universe

Chapter 61 8. Join
“Meat, meat, meat, meat!!!”

“I want meat!!!”

The wound healed and then tore, tore and then healed again, over and over again, constantly overdrawing the energy stored in the eye ghost's body.

At this moment, it has completely lost its mind and turned into a beast with its mind full of blood and flesh desires.

Liu Yuansheng frowned and stepped on the eye ghost's head to fix it under his feet.

There is absolutely no way to "torture" him now.

Thinking of this, Liu Yuansheng sighed in annoyance. The noisy sound of his feet gave him a headache, so he pulled out the blade and stabbed it into the eye socket of the eye ghost without hesitation. With a turn of his wrist, the eye ghost trembled and became motionless.

Shizuka Marikawa grabbed Busujima Saeko's clothes and hid timidly behind her. Even though the eye ghost couldn't hurt her at all, her irrational look like a wild beast still frightened her heart.

Only after seeing that the eye ghost had stopped making any movement did he walk out from behind Busujima Saeko's voice.

"died?"

Busujima Saeko frowned.

"Probably not yet... Although the injury is recovering slowly, it is still recovering..."

Shizuka Marikawa squatted down, carefully picked up a branch beside her, poked the eye ghost's head, and then spoke objectively.

After hearing this, Busujima Saeko frowned and looked at the eye ghost's head with a serious face:
"Gensheng, don't we have any way to kill it except for the 'Demon Slayer Corps' you mentioned?"

Liu Yuansheng pursed his lips and was about to speak, but the next second, a voice with a hint of arrogance in its indifference sounded from above his head:

"Sunlight, and the right amount of wisteria, can kill ghosts."

Before he finished speaking, Busujima Saeko and Marikawa Shizuka were both startled and subconsciously turned their heads to look above their heads. Liu Yuansheng narrowed his eyes and turned to look at the person who came.

A man with medium-length hair and wearing a black and white striped haori was seen squatting on the wall, his pair of heterochromatic eyes looking at the three people with interest.

At its neck, a small snow-white snake rose up slowly, spitting out red letters, and its ruby-clear snake eyes stared at everyone as if with a spirit.

Busujima Saeko unconsciously put her hand on the hilt of the knife and stared at Iguro Obanai sharply:
"who are you?"

Liu Yuansheng stepped forward silently and protected Busujima Saeko behind him.

Iguro Obanai did not answer immediately. She glanced at Busujima Saeko, then ignored Marikawa Shizuka behind the two of them and looked directly at Liu Yuansheng, looking at him for a few times as if she was confirming something.

The little snake on his neck made a hissing sound. Ihei Xiaobanei narrowed his eyes, but then he stopped worrying and jumped lightly from the top of the wall. He walked slowly to Liu Yuansheng.

The two were silent for a moment, then Iguro Xiaobanei raised his head, looked at Liu Yuansheng calmly, and said calmly:
"Ghost, did you capture it?"

Although the tone was a question, his words already showed certainty that it was Liu Yuansheng who did it.

While Iguro Obanai was looking at Yanagi Gensho, Yanagi Gensho was also looking at him. To Yanagi Gensho, the man in front of him was not unfamiliar. After all, he was one of the nine pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps, and his strength was among the top three.

Although his personality is a bit weird, overall, he is a good person.

Liu Yuansheng glanced at the Eye Ghost beside him with disapproval, and then explained the whole story:

"Recently, a family of four died in the county, and the villagers were talking about it. It just so happened to appear near my home, causing quite a stir."

Ihei Xiaobanei nodded and looked at the Eye Ghost beside him. The next second, he did not move at all. In an instant, a cold light suddenly swept across the Eye Ghost's broken neck.

The Eye Ghost suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Iguro Obanai in disbelief, then turned into a ball of ashes and disappeared in the horrified gazes of Busujima Saeko and Marikawa Shizuka.

"Ghosts are dirty bugs that can only live at night and feed on humans."

Perhaps noticing the surprise of several people, Iguro Obana spoke lightly.

Busujima Saeko couldn't help but look at the blade in his hand, which was a blade with an extremely strange shape.

The blade bent freely like a snake without any regularity, and the edge was glowing a faint purple as if it was coated with poison.

Is this the Sun Blade?
Iguro Obanai turned around casually, and at the same second, the long sword was sheathed under the haori. His eyes moved and looked straight at Liu Yuansheng:
"Since you saved me the time of looking for ghosts, I can answer a few of your questions."

As he spoke, Iguro Obanai raised his arm, and his index finger popped out like a snake's head, pointing at Liu Yuansheng.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that when they said "you guys", in fact the only person being asked was Liu Yuansheng.

"Ask." Iguro Obane said lightly.

Liu Yuansheng's face was calm. Although he didn't need to know anything, in order to let Busujima Saeko and Marikawa Shizuka know the information, he didn't hesitate and asked directly:
"What is the Demon Slayer Corps?"

"A non-governmental organization founded a thousand years ago whose mission is to exorcise evil spirits."

"How did that ghost appear?"

Iguro Xiaoban's eyes flashed, and his tone paused for a moment:
"So-called ghosts are monsters that are formed when humans absorb the blood of the Ghost King." "Ghost King?"

"Muzan Kibutsuji is the source of all demons in the world. The Demon Slayer Corps was established to defeat him."

Liu Yuansheng nodded slightly in understanding, and then fell silent.

Busujima Saeko and Marikawa Shizuka looked at Liu Yuansheng calmly.

Waited for a long time.

"Any question?"

Iguro Xiaobanei frowned slightly, and he was a little anxious. After all, not everyone was worthy of his patience in answering questions.

He wanted to invite Liu Yuansheng to join the team.

Because Kabiramaru told him that Liu Yuansheng was very strong.

The body hidden under Jinbei was emitting heat that was comparable to that of Gyoumei Hirame, one of the Nine Pillars!

Not to mention that the guy in front of him didn't learn the breathing method! Without learning the breathing method, his physical fitness is already so strong!

If such a person could join the Demon Slayer Corps, it would undoubtedly be a huge help in realizing the Demon Slayer Corps' long-cherished wish for thousands of years!

But even if he were to invite her like that, Iguro Obane couldn't bring herself to do it, and could only "ask indirectly" in this awkward way.

After all, Butterfly said that before inviting others, one should be patient...

Liu Yuansheng actually already had the answer in his heart, but before agreeing, he always had to "think about it" first, otherwise it would seem too abrupt.

Seeing Iguro Obanai urging him, Liu Yuansheng stopped being silent and looked up at Iguro Obanai:
"So...how do we join the Demon Slayer Corps?"

"I agreed."

"..."

do you agree?
Do you agree to join?
What kind of organization is so casual?
Not to mention Busujima Saeko, even Marikawa Shizuka was a little confused.

Only Liu Yuansheng did not find it strange, because he knew that Iguro Obanai was one of the nine pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps, and his power was second only to one thousand others.

It couldn't be easier to agree to the three people's invitation to join the team.

"But if you want to become a combatant, you must learn the breathing method and pass the assessment before you can officially join the team."

As soon as he finished speaking, Iguro Xiaobanai looked at Liu Yuansheng again:
"You don't have to participate, but once you learn the breathing method, I will test you personally."

Liu Yuansheng raised his eyebrows in surprise, but Busujima Saeko pursed her lips unconsciously.

No matter how slow Busujima Saeko and Marikawa Shizuka were, they vaguely realized that the guy in front of them who was dressed a little strangely was probably a high-ranking member of the Demon Slayer Corps.

"But let me be frank. Since I introduced you to the Demon Slayer Corps, I will be responsible for you."

Iguro Xiaobanei paused, and his eyes suddenly narrowed:
"If any of you betray the Demon Slayer Corps in the future..."

"I will make him regret coming into this world."

The chilling murderous intent in an instant chilled everyone's heart.

No one thought he was joking.

Busujima Saeko couldn't help but frown:
"Then what counts as betrayal? If the Demon Slayer Corps orders us to kill each other, does that count if we disagree?"

Iguro Obanai suddenly turned his gaze to Busujima Saeko with a puzzled expression, as if to ask how could you ask such an idiotic question, but considering that Liu Yuansheng was still here, he said calmly:
"The Demon Slayer Corps will only issue orders to exorcise evil spirits. You only need to do three things."

Iguro Obanai looked at Liu Yuansheng:
“Don’t betray the information of the Demon Slayer Corps, don’t harm other members of the Demon Slayer Corps, and don’t become a demon.”

"I won't care about the rest."

Busujima Saeko was startled, but Liu Yuansheng frowned:
"Has any member of the Demon Slayer Corps fallen into evil spirits over the past thousand years?"

"No."

Iguro Obana looked at him strangely, as if wondering why he asked this.

Liu Yuansheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. It seemed that the timeline had not yet reached the stage where Xiong Yue turned into a ghost.

That being the case.

"Okay, we're in."
