After a few simple greetings, the two sides parted ways. Rengoku Makijuro is not very interested in Gyoumei Hirame, his main target is Ootenzu. …… At the same time, in the courtyard of the mansion where Yuzhongjin is located. After experiencing real fighting, Kanae Hudie and Shinobu Kocho realized the cruelty between humans and demons and understood the good intentions of Yuzenjin. So they took the initiative to ask him to increase the difficulty of his training. Since he was "requested", Yuzhong Jin certainly would not let go of this opportunity. Take this opportunity to train these two sisters well. When she was halfway through her practice, she suddenly sensed several auras approaching, so she turned around and looked towards the courtyard gate. The door was open and she saw Ubuyashiki Kazuya, and next to him was a familiar-looking person. - [Real name: Rengoku Makijuro (SR)]
【Level: 24】 - "Excuse me, Your Excellency the Miko. I am here to introduce someone to you." Ubuyashiki Yoya was just about to continue speaking. "I am Rengoku Makijuro, the former Flame Pillar." Rengoku Makijuro took half a step forward and spoke first. When it comes to self-introduction, it’s better for the person involved to do it themselves. "My name is Yuzhongjin, nice to meet you, Mr. Purgatory." This was the first time that Mizoguchi and Rengoku Makijuro met, but she knew him, the father of the next Flame Pillar Rengoku Kyojuro and the current head of the Rengoku family. He has long yellow and red hair and sword-like eyebrows. To be honest, this family looks too similar. "I heard you killed two upper ranks." Rengoku Makijuro said bluntly. "No, Mr. Beimingyu also assisted him at that time, so it can't be said that I killed him." Yu Zhuanjin corrected it. "There are some things I can still see clearly. Beimingyu may be quite strong and talented, but he is still a little short of maturity." Rengoku Makijuro looked at Mizoujin, stared at him and said, "I once fought a Lower String named Peilang for several rounds. At that time, he was only a Lower String Six, but I still didn't kill him in the end. Killing and defeating are two different concepts. Beimingyu may be able to defeat an Upper String, but killing is another matter. Excuse me, he doesn't have that ability now." "If it were just me, everything would be a hassle." Yuzuru couldn't have imagined that Rengoku Makijuro's vision was so vicious.
"It's just 'very troublesome'." Rengoku Makijuro also understood the hidden meaning of Myoujin. "Ah..." Ubuyashiki Yoya, who was not very good at fighting, was confused by what he heard. "Mister Miko, do you know our Purgatory family?" Without waiting for Ootenzu's answer, Rengoku Makijuro continued, "Our Rengoku family has been different from other ghost hunters since ancient times. Of the five basic breathing techniques, the other four are scattered around Japan, and only the breathing of flame has been passed down in our family." "The swordsman who created the breathing method, Yoriichi Tsugukuni, had a close relationship with our ancestors of the Purgatory family, so the Breathing of Flame that he gave to our clan is also the basic breathing method that is closest to the Breathing of the Sun." "Because of this, after Tsugikoku Yoshiichi passed away, under the crazy revenge launched by Muzan, the users of Breath of Fire were also treated as users of Breath of Sun and were purged together. It is still the same today. Users of Breath of Fire are the most vulnerable to persecution. Even my clan is only left with me as the last one." "Ghosts are afraid of sunlight and flames, but I see a similar light reappearing in you, which is no weaker than the new law of the Breathing of the Sun." "Muzan fears and is angry at this power. Two upper-rank demons gathered together, probably to kill you, but he underestimated you." …… Hearing this, Yuzhongjin suddenly came back to her senses. How could she have forgotten this? She only wanted to kill the upper-rank demon, but ignored why the other party appeared here. If there was only one, it would be fine, just treating it as passing by, but two appearing in the same area at the same time and cooperating with each other is obviously abnormal. If it was to deal with her, everything would make sense. But it's true that if you show abnormal abilities, you will inevitably attract Muzan's attention. "Next, you have to be ready." Rengoku Makijuro whispered. "Will there be a stronger ghost coming to kill me?" Yuzhong Jin was not afraid at all, he was just thinking about how to protect the people living in the nearby area. "No, you have to prepare yourself to never find Muzan Kibutsuji and his waxing moon again in this life." Rengoku Makijuro shook his head, and then continued: "Your existence is like that of Tsugikoku Yoriichi back then. After that swordsman was severely injured by Muzan Kibutsuji, he had no place to display his skills until his death. Demons have a long lifespan. If they cannot kill you, they will wait until your life ends. He has always been like this and will inevitably be like this. Therefore, while you are still alive, Muzan will never appear in this world again. He is as disgusting as a bug." At the end, Rengoku Makijuro broke down. "..." Miojin couldn't refute it. She perhaps understood Muzan better than Rengoku Makijuro. Because of this, she also knew that Muzan was indeed capable of doing such a shameful thing for him. "No, we will do everything we can to find him." Ubuyashiki Yoya said seriously. "The head of the Ubuyashiki family said the same thing hundreds of years ago." With just these one sentence, Rengoku Makijuro rendered Ubuyashiki Kōya speechless.
If Muzan could be found easily, the battle between humans and demons would not have lasted hundreds of years longer. Everything could have ended early, when Tsugaru Yoriichi was still alive. "The current Ubuyashiki family is not the same as before. We have changed." Ubuyashiki Yoya had not expected that Rengoku Makijuro's thoughts would be so pessimistic. It was obvious that he was more optimistic than anyone else back then. "Puch..." Before Rengoku Makijuro could retort, Mitsu smiled and said, "You're right. We have changed. Hundreds of years ago and now, not only have we changed, but 'humanity' has also changed. Muzan can wait for an insignificant fifty years, but he doesn't have the chance to wait for the second important fifty years." "Your confidence is inexplicable." Rengoku Makijuro had already said what he was going to say, and turned around and left. "Mister Miko, we'll talk later." Ubuyashiki Yoya also wanted to send Rengoku Makijuro off. Yuzhongjin looked up at the bright sky. The development of human civilization is always so magical. She knew that in the next hundred years, the process of technological explosion would be uncontrolled. If Muzan gave up action during this period, he would completely lose the chance of turning the situation around. Guns and cannons are secondary. The moment humans are able to simulate sunlight, ghosts will completely disappear from the stage of history. Muzan has been "checked in". Of course, this kind of thing should just be thought about in one's heart. Yuzhong Jin doesn't think that people in today's era can understand it. Even people in the 21st century probably cannot understand that there were only less than 70 years between the Wright brothers' manufacturing of the first airplane and their first moon landing. Even when Ubuyashiki Yoya later asked Miozu what her answer meant, she simply changed the subject and evaded the question. However, what Rengoku Makijuro said was correct. Muzan has now gone into hiding and dared not show up rashly. At least for a period of time afterwards, Ootenjin didn't even see a single ghost in the surrounding area. Muzan obviously asked all the demons who could be controlled to stay away from her as much as possible to prevent them from losing their lives for no reason. After all, Muzan Kibutsuji, who has decided to live for a few decades, will definitely not appear in a short time, so the matter of transforming into a ghost will have to be postponed. On this basis, Muzan Kibutsuji will naturally not allow the number of demons to decrease on a large scale. This is also an opportunity for the Demon Slayer Corps to expand and develop rapidly. Miojin realized that her mission in this world had been largely completed and the Demon Slayer Corps had a great advantage, although it was a bit regrettable that she was unable to give Muzan some time to bask in the sun. The subsequent events may take several years of continuous development to come to a conclusion, which is a time that Yuzhuanjin cannot wait. A few days later, it was the day when the Demon Slayer Corps selects members every six months. Ootenzu asked Kurodō Kanae and Kurodō Shinobu to participate in order to join the team. Survive a week surrounded by many little ghosts in Fujixi Mountain. For Kanae Hudie and Shinobu Hudie, it is a relatively easy goal. Those who make it to the final selection are, without exception, elite candidates trained by breeders from all over the place. They receive temporary Sun Blades from their respective masters, and therefore also have the ability to slay demons.
Hudie Kanae and Hudie Shinobu were walking in the front, and the reserve soldiers behind them were also surprised to see their young figures. The selection officially begins. Unlike the other candidate soldiers who are looking for places to hide, Kanae Hudie and Shinobu Hudie take advantage of the bright sunshine to look for demons hiding in the dark. As long as they eliminate the threat, they will be safe. They have this ability. Needless to say, when Yuzhongjin arrived at the top of the mountain seven days later, he saw the two people standing in the front row. Their clothes were still neat and tidy and they did not look disheveled. "From now on, you are a member of the Demon Slayer Corps." Normally, at times like this, it would be Beimingyu Xingming who would preside over the event, but Yuzhongjin came instead of him, and then took out the prepared jade for the new team members to choose from to forge the embryo of the Sun Blade. After this stage is over, the new soldiers will be assigned the Demon Slayer Corps uniforms. The Demon Slayer Corps' uniforms are made of special fibers. They are extremely breathable and have strong moisture and flame retardancy. The claws and teeth of the weak ghost cannot tear the team uniforms. It's a pretty good protection. It has excellent defense and is also very lightweight. The new recruits who received the uniforms went down the mountain and returned to their respective trainers' residences to report the situation. Only Kanae Hudie and Shinobu Hudie stayed where they were because their "trainer" was Mizoguchi. "Master, we have successfully completed the mission objectives." Hudie Kanae and Hudie Shinobu happily reported to Yuzenjin. "Congratulations." Yu Zhuanjin said in a very light voice with a smile on his face: "You have finished your apprenticeship." "?!!!" Hearing this, Hu Die Kanae and Hu Die Ren opened their mouths but could not speak. The latter stammered, "Master, what are you talking about?" "I said you guys are out of the apprenticeship." Yuzhongjin reiterated. "But, but we..." Hu Die Kanae was about to speak. "After passing the final selection, you will officially become members of the Demon Slayer Corps. In other words, when you receive a mission to exterminate demons, I will no longer be there to protect you. The only one you can rely on is yourself." Yuzhongjin said solemnly: "Your lives are in your own hands. I cannot and will not always wait by your side until you are in danger and then take action. I have taught you what I should teach you, and you have learned what you should learn. Even though I am your 'stepson', it does not mean that I will always take care of you." "But, Master, if you become a disciple, can we still call you Master?" Hudie Kanae understood the meaning of Yuzhong's words, so she turned to ask another question. "That's up to you. If you find questions worth my answering in the future, I don't mind." Yuzhongjin just asked Hudie Kanae and Hudie Shinobu to practice harder and independently, and continued: "Tomorrow, I will leave. When I come back next time, I hope you will have grown."
At this point, Yuzhongjin walked up to Hudie Kanae and completed the first exploration mission of this copy. She got five more "Lucky Daruma", but since there was no one else to use them, she just gave them all to the other party.

Yuzhongjin happened to have enough of them. To upgrade or not? Yuzhongjin looked at Hudie Kanae's purple pupils, but in the end he couldn't bear it.
