The current head of the Ubuyashiki family had been waiting at the door for quite some time.

Upon seeing Tamayo and Yoriichi Tsugikuni, he knew that the person he was waiting for had arrived.

Although the two people behind him were strangers.

However, he could sense that these two were also human.

"I'm sorry to have made you laugh. I should have gone out to greet you, but my body just couldn't do it, cough cough!"

The head of the Ubuyashiki family coughed twice; their frail bodies seemed as if they might collapse at any moment.

He was already terminally ill at a young age, and looked to be only in his early twenties.

"My lord, now that they've arrived, let's head back!"

A man wearing a red flame-patterned haori approached the head of the Ubuyashiki family, his eyes filled with respect.

This person is the current Flame Pillar.

The head of the Ubuyashiki family looked at Yoriichi Tsugikuni, his lifeless eyes filled with apology.

Let's go inside first!

In the building's living room, the head of the Ubuyashiki family, supported by his two children, sat down.

The wife, who was standing nearby, began to make tea for the guests.

Hot tea was soon served to everyone.

Looking at the hideous skin on the forehead of the head of the Ubuyashiki family, Yoriichi Tsugikuni knew that the current head of the Ubuyashiki family wouldn't live much longer.

"I never expected to meet Mr. Yoriichi again, and he looks so young! Although Ms. Tamayo mentioned him in her letter, I was still very shocked after meeting him!"

"The head of the Ubuyashiki family said softly, his tone unusually gentle."

Ji Guoyuan glanced at Jiang Nan sitting next to him.

"I just encountered some things, and I never expected that I would come back to the Demon Slayer Corps again."

Jiang Nan and Lu Mingfei didn't say anything nice; instead, they drank their tea.

The two of them were like outsiders.

Quietly observe everything.

The head of the Ubuyashiki family thought for a moment and then spoke.

"Countless people have sacrificed themselves since the establishment of the Demon Slayer Corps. It is thanks to the breathing techniques left behind by Mr. Yoriichi that we have been able to narrow the gap in our battles against demons."

Yoriichi Tsugikuni spoke slowly, his tone very calm.

"I will not sacrifice anymore. I will end all of this."

After considering for a moment, the head of the Ubuyashiki family spoke.

"The Demon King Muzan is related to the fate of our family for a thousand years. Mr. Yoriichi, I do not doubt your strength. However, there seems to be a big movement on the demon side recently. The Twelve Demon Moons and some powerful demons have suddenly disappeared. According to some reliable information, they seem to have gathered together."

The implication of the head of the Ubuyashiki family was that the demons had already gathered. As the saying goes, "a hero needs three helpers," and if there were too many of them, even Yoriichi Tsugikuni, who had once defeated the Demon King Muzan, might be hampered.

Moreover, even if Yoriichi Tsugikuni is able to defeat the Twelve Demon Moons and those powerful demons, it will still consume his stamina.

Humans are different from ghosts; they need rest.

The head of the Ubuyashiki family is worried that something unexpected might happen.

Yoriichi Tsugikuni said in a very firm tone.

"I will take care of them all together!"

This is the confidence of someone with the highest combat power; even Upper Moon One, Kokushibo, was killed by him with a single strike.

Other times, during the 12 Ghost Months, it's probably just a matter of one strike.

Moreover, he even invited the group leader, Jiang Nan, to join him.

Even if he were to lose, Jiang Nan would still intervene.

The head of the Ubuyashiki family sighed softly and spoke.

“Mr. Yoriichi, you don’t need to take this responsibility upon yourself. Besides, the Demon Slayer Corps is not as weak as you think. Since you intend to attack the Demon King Muzan, you must go all out.”

This is an opportunity.

The head of the Ubuyashiki family wanted to seize this opportunity.

The Demon Slayer Corps was tasked with holding off the Twelve Demon Moons and the other demons.

King against king, against general.

Let Yoriichi Tsugikuni fight against Muzan, the Demon King, at his peak.

The head of the Ubuyashiki family believed that this time Yoriichi Tsugikuni would definitely not let the Demon King Muzan escape again.

Yoriichi Tsugikuni didn't want anyone else to sacrifice themselves anymore.

The Demon Slayer Corps has already sacrificed too many lives in order to fight demons.

Meanwhile, Tamayo arrived at her research room in the Demon Slayer Corps.

This room contains her documents and experimental equipment.

Then, some syringes and reagents were placed in place.

The toxins in this are all effective against ghosts.

Tamayo chose to take this thing with her.

They might be able to help in the battle.

"That damn man!"

When Tamayo thought about what she was going to do next, she couldn't even control her emotions.

After all this time, I can finally take my revenge on that man.

Next, we just need to wait for the head of the Ubuyashiki family and Yoriichi Tsugikuni to discuss it.

However, no agreement was reached at all.

Yoriichi Tsugikuni did not want the Demon Slayer Corps to get involved.

The head of the Ubuyashiki family wanted the Demon Slayer Corps to help Yoriichi Tsugikuni to ensure everything went smoothly.

The Flame Pillar, who was standing aside protecting his lord, couldn't bear to watch any longer.

So he stepped forward.

Chapter 16, The Duel

Flame Pillar actually has a short temper.

But because he was in front of his lord, he restrained his temper.

But at this moment, seeing Yoriichi Tsugikuni refuse their help...

He finally couldn't hold back anymore.

He thought that Jiguo Yuan looked down on him and believed that his strength was of no use.

However, the head of the Ubuyashiki family could sense Yoriichi Tsugikuni's determination not to let anyone be sacrificed.

What a gentle person!

However, one must be extremely cautious when dealing with man-eating creatures like ghosts.

The head of the Ubuyashiki family has witnessed too many sacrifices by members of the Demon Slayer Corps.

He remembered the name of every fallen team member.

If he could, he wouldn't want these healthy team members to sacrifice themselves.

But ghosts are monsters that like to eat people.

Someone must fight this monster.

All the heads of the Ubuyashiki family wanted Yoriichi Tsugikuni to understand the importance of the Demon Slayer Corps.

Therefore, the eruption of the Flame Pillar could not be stopped.

“Mr. Yoriichi, I know you are the creator of the Breathing Techniques and use the original Sun Breathing, but we are not weak either. I think our Demon Slayer Corps is qualified to assist you.”

Flame Pillar stepped forward, unleashing an astonishing aura from his entire body.

The Pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps are the most elite members, the strongest warriors who have emerged from countless battles between humans and demons.

Furthermore, it possesses combat power comparable to the Twelve Demon Moons.

The primary condition for becoming a Pillar is to kill one of the Twelve Demon Moons.

Yoriichi Tsugikuni looked at the dazzling light emanating from the Flame Pillar.

Unwavering belief, high morale, and a strong physique.

"That's not the case, it's just that there's really no need for it."

Yoriichi Tsugikuni spoke.

Looking at the Flame Pillar at this moment, he thought of the Flame Pillar of the future.

The Flame Pillar who wouldn't let anyone sacrifice themselves.

Even when faced with the temptation to become a demon, he persisted in fighting.

In the end, he fulfilled his promise and did not let anyone die, but he himself died on the eve of dawn.

Flame Pillar took a deep breath, his eyes filled with fighting spirit.

"Yoriichi Tsugikuni, let's duel! Instead of wasting time talking here, let me prove with my strength that our Demon Slayer Corps will never hold you back."

If you can take action, don't just talk.

Yanzhu felt that his temper was not suitable for advising others.

Even his own lord has failed to persuade Yoriichi Tsugikuni, and he doesn't think he's better than his lord.

So he used his own method: a duel.
