Chapter 119: Fan Palace Family - To be revised
"How can I accept this?!"
Shimi pulled his hand out from the supporting pillar, ignoring the pain in his hand as his bones were broken. His anger rose again, and he saw the veins on his neck and head bulging. His eyes were bloodshot, and he looked at Tsugikoku Yoshiichi again.
That statement needs to be answered.
"Then what should I do? Tell the truth at the beginning? And then move the incident forward?" Jiguo Yuanyi said coldly.
"You bastard..." He was about to clench his fist and throw it, but he couldn't. Even though Shimi had lost his clear mind, he knew that what he said was true.
After all, no matter what, the result... is the same...
At this moment, the most secretive and rear door of the room opened, and then the faint sound of a wheelchair rolling over the tatami came into the ears.
Hearing this voice, Jiguo Yuanyi, who was standing and wanted to continue questioning, immediately came to his position and knelt down. Jiguo Yuanyi also knelt on one knee when he saw this scene, but at this moment, except for him who was relaxed, everyone else was tense.
Even Gyoumei Hirame, who was in a neutral position, began to take this matter seriously, because this incident was the most difficult moment in the history of the Demon Slayer Corps.
Two little girls who looked identical appeared first, one on the left and one on the right, leaving a space in the middle. Then, in the direction not illuminated by the light, the lord sitting in a wheelchair and his wife Tianyin appeared in front of the pillars.
Their current condition is very bad. Even the pillars who do not have an extraordinary sense of smell can feel the smell of fatigue and sadness.
Ubuyashiki Kazuya was in a very bad condition. His entire face was almost covered with purple scars. His body was wrapped in bandages, leaving only his mouth and nose exposed. The blood that had not been wiped off still remained at the corners of his mouth.
"Greetings, my lord!" the pillars shouted in unison, their tone sounding particularly serious.
Sitting in a wheelchair, Ubuyashiki Yoya forced himself to smile, trying to appear relaxed, but his body was too stiff to move.
"I'm so sorry, everyone. For showing up in such a rude manner."
A pleasant voice came out of Ubuyashiki Kazuya's mouth, but at this moment it could no longer make everyone present feel happy.
Everyone was silent and in a stalemate.
"It's actually my fault that this happened. Mr. Yoriichi didn't do much wrong. Just relax." Ubuyashiki Yoshiya broke the deadlock and spoke lightly.
Hearing this, everyone was obviously stunned and looked up blankly, not understanding.
"My lord, why are you doing this?... You don't have to take the blame on yourself just to protect him! Although you admit that the guy's decision was indeed wrong, you don't have to do this." Shimizu was the first to speak. His anger subsided a lot. He looked at Ubuyashiki Kakuya with a worried look on his face, fearing that his condition would worsen.
Before Ubuyashiki Yoya could reply, Iguro Obata on the side also started speaking.
"I don't know much about their affairs, but they are wrong. My lord, although this swordsman, Jianyi Jiguo, is very powerful, you don't need to get yourself tainted for him."
Immediately afterwards, except for Togitsu Giyu and Tsugakuni Yoriichi, who attended the meeting on behalf of the seriously injured Santo, the rest of the people expressed their opinions.
Ganlu Temple Mi Li: "......"
Shinobu Kocho: “…”
Tokito Muichiro: "......"
Beimingyu Xingming: "......"
Rengoku Kyojuro: “…”
When everyone quieted down after expressing their opinions, Ubuyashiki Kakuya still had a smile on his face, as if that was the only expression he could make.
"Kids...don't forget, Mr. Yoriichi's current identity is not in our Demon Slayer Corps."
Everyone was stunned, but before they could react, Ubuyashiki Yoshiya continued, "It was my request that Mr. Yunichirō join the Demon Slayer Corps. Mr. Yunichirō was once a member of the Demon Slayer Corps, but that was hundreds of years ago. For some reason, Mr. Yunichirō refused to join the Demon Slayer Corps, but he would also provide help.
"Therefore, Mr. Yunyi has always been an outsider, but he solved many difficult problems for us, and even did not receive any salary in the end..."
Ubuyashiki Yoshiya explained to everyone together, and the general meaning was: "Tsugokuni Yoshiichi did not join the Demon Slayer Corps for some reason. But he worked for the Demon Slayer Corps for free, and he didn't even want the salary that Ubuyashiki Yoshiya gave him. So in a way, Tsugokuni Yoshiichi is indeed an outsider, but he helped so much. And since he is an outsider, he can do whatever he wants, and he will not be restricted by the Demon Slayer Corps. His choice may have an impact, but in the final analysis, the main problem of the incident is the Demon King, and the Demon King is the enemy of the Demon Slayer Corps, but the relationship between the Demon King and Tsugokuni Yoshiichi seems to be a bit close. But Tsugokuni Yoshiichi is neutral, he can choose whatever he wants, he is not a member of the Demon Slayer Corps? What right does he have to judge him? From the perspective of the Demon Slayer Corps, Tsugokuni Yoshiichi is extremely guilty! But from the perspective of the world, what is wrong with Tsugokuni Yoshiichi? After all, in this world, except for the Demon Slayer Corps, no one believes in the existence of demons. Even if a few people believe in it, they will not think about it. The most important thing is that the Demon Slayer Corps is just an unrecognized organization."
Everyone was completely stunned by this explanation. They did not expect that Ubuyashiki Yoshiya would come up with so many reasons to exonerate Tsugaru Yoshiichi. Even Tsugaru Yoshiichi who was standing next to him was confused.
Because he doesn't think that much.
"But the most important thing is the meeting when I first met the Demon King, his name, and his identity... If I hadn't been so greedy and made a conclusion just because things would be better in the future, maybe so many things wouldn't have happened." Ubuyashiki Yoya said with a slightly helpless tone.
"Name? Identity? What's the matter?" Beimingyu Xingming suddenly asked in confusion.
Hearing this, Ubuyashiki Yoya was about to reply, but was interrupted by a sudden violent cough.
“Cough, cough, cough! Cough, cough——!!”
The severe situation even made Ubuyashiki Yoya almost unable to sit steadily in the wheelchair. Fortunately, Tianyin beside him took out medicine in time and asked him to take it, and the coughing stopped.
Tian Tianyin wiped the blood that was coughed out from the corner of Ubuyashiki Yoshiya's mouth. She looked at him with a worried look on her face, and her hand that was wiping was shaking. The same was true for the twin little girls next to her, who were silently approaching from behind.
"Okay, Amane, there's no need to be like this..." Ubuyashiki Yoshiya was unable to raise his hands to hold his wife, and could only force a smile despite the pain in his lungs.
Ubuyashiki Yoya took a few deep breaths and used a smile to calm the pillars who were in a tense atmosphere due to their sudden cough.
Soon, Ubuyashiki Yoshi replied to Beiming Island Gyomei's question.
"Because... the lineage with that name is the Fan Gong family, and the Fan Gong family was once the family that protected the country, and was also the family that suddenly seized power and became the emperor hundreds of years ago!!"
