Ubuyashiki mansion.

Although it seems that the Pillars often come here for meetings in the anime, in fact, they seldom come here unless something big happens.

For example, the promotion ceremony of a Pillar is usually only attended by the lord and the person who has just been promoted to a Pillar. Sometimes, when it is busy, there is no such process at all. The person will just issue a feather cloth and notify the swordsmith village that they can engrave words on his sword. The rest is a thing of the past.

Once you become a pillar, you will have to shoulder greater responsibilities.

Before becoming a Hashira, members of the Demon Slayer Corps are commanded by the Crows to go somewhere to kill demons. They have no rights, and if they find a demon or find any traces, they need to apply for money.

But after becoming a Pillar, one can call upon all members of the Demon Slayer Corps without approval, except for the Pillars, and there will be a certain amount of funds, and there will also be hidden troops on standby 24 hours a day.

After Zhu retires, he will be allocated a mansion, where he can marry, have children and settle down. He can own one even after retirement, and of course it can also be a villa with the ability to make money.

I don’t have to worry about my retirement anymore.

However, the only drawback is that the column has a jurisdiction area, and it rarely leaves the jurisdiction area unless it is urgent.

Wu Guang came to the courtyard, and as soon as he entered, he saw Beimingyu standing under a tree in the courtyard with his hands clasped together.

Looking at the other party like this, Wu Guang already understood what was going to happen next.

The past of Xiyue and Beimingyu.

Beimingyu was once a monk in a temple. He adopted a group of children and lived a poor but relatively stable life.

Among this group of children was Xiao Yue.

But where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. There are also small groups among children. They collectively ostracize Xianyue who used to be a thief. Beimingyu does not think that being a thief in the past is a problem. The future can be changed and human nature can be corrected.

But the children united in front of him and bullied Xiyue behind his back. In the end, Xiyue left, but he met a ghost on the way.

He was also threatened and tempted by a ghost, saying that he would not die as long as he extinguished the wisteria incense burner.

The child had no idea that the wisteria incense burner had the effect of exorcising ghosts. Moreover, after being bullied, his life was threatened, so he became extremely evil.

Or in other words, Xianyue, who had never been treated well, decided to take revenge.

The wisteria incense burner was extinguished.

As a result, only Beimingyu and a little girl were left in the entire temple.

At dawn, the ghost that Beimingyu had hammered so hard could not recover and its head eventually turned into ashes. However, the little girl was frightened and pointed at the location of the ghost, saying that it was the one that killed everyone.

However, there was only Beiming Island at that time, and the ghost had turned into ashes.

Beimingyu tried to argue.

Unfortunately, the little girl just knew how to cry.

Beimingyu was thrown into prison and sentenced to death.

But he was rescued by his current lord.

Being betrayed, wronged, insulted, and ultimately dying with sin on your shoulders.

No one can let it go.

The same is true for Beiming Island today.

His concern is about Xian Yue and the little girl, but the little girl has been adopted by someone else and the two are far away from each other.

And Beimingyu actually knew that the little girl was just scared, so he understood.

All that was missing was a thank you and an apology.

But Xiaoyue is different.

He is the betrayer.

Now he has become a pillar.

The grudge between the two must naturally be settled.

Wu Guang was the person who had once given Xun Yue recognition and warmth, and would occasionally take him out for drinks and chats.

Although his character has changed a little, Xiyue is not as extreme as in the original novel.

"Namo..." Beimingyu felt Wu Guang's breath and greeted him in his own way.

Wu Guang also nodded.

When the real owner knew Wu Guang had arrived, he walked out from the other side.

But at this time, Xiyue was dressed in white and had a small knife in his hand.

It is a small knife used by samurai to commit seppuku.

"..." Wu Guang frowned as he looked at the other person like this.

But in the end he shook his head.

He was just a witness, and the matter still had to be resolved between the two of them.

Xian Yue came in front of Beimingyu and knelt down without saying much.

"Master Xingming, it was me who extinguished the wisteria incense burner, it was me who brought the ghosts to the temple, and it was me who killed those children. I know that this is an unforgivable sin. I am a thief and a sinner."

After saying this, pain and helplessness flashed across Xie Yue's eyes.

He turned his head and saw Wu Guang, his eyes full of gratitude.

"I'm sorry... I also thank you for taking me in."

"I'm not asking for your forgiveness, but for a chance to atone for my sins."

As he spoke, he cut three scars on his arm, and as planned, he injected tattoos on his arm, and at the same time, he also drew three scars on his face, using the same operation.

These tattoos are evidence that the man in front of you is a criminal. Even after he is released from prison, these tattoos will follow him for the rest of his life, to put it bluntly.

He will have to live his life with people poking at his spine.

Although Beimingyu couldn't see, he still stared at the Xiyue in front of him, and tears had already appeared on his face.

He was neither touched nor happy.

But feel sad.

"Namo...Alas...Actually you just need to apologize." Beimingyu reached out and rubbed Xianyue's head.

Time seemed to have gone back to that year, when Beimingyu had just taken in the dirty Xiaoyue.

As a pillar, Beimingyu actually knew about the existence of Giongake a long time ago.

Or the lord has already told him.

And he was given the right once when he became a pillar.

Deprive Xiyue of the right to life.

But he chose to do nothing and pretend he didn't know.

Although Gion did something wrong, he is now killing demons in the Demon Slayer Corps. Although he doesn't know the whole story, Gion is killing demons now, so this is atonement.

Although he felt somewhat dissatisfied because he did not receive a direct apology, he chose not to care.

Even if Xiyue became a pillar and said he didn't know him, he wouldn't point anything out and would pretend not to know Xiyue, and they would each do their own thing.

Now that both sides have made things clear and Xiyue has apologized, Beimingyu no longer feels any pain or confusion in his heart. However, if he chooses to stop it, Xiyue will instead be left with a knot in his heart.

So he chose to do nothing and let the other party tattoo the mark of a sinner on his body.

"I'm sorry..." Xiong Yue originally thought he was mentally prepared, but when he heard Beimingyu's kind words of forgiveness, tears flowed out of his eyes uncontrollably.

Even though his face had just been cut and was soaked with tears and was stinging, Xiong Yue smiled.

I cried and laughed.

Tears and blood dripped together.

Wu Guang just watched as a witness and finally sighed deeply.

This scene was actually destined from the beginning, but it was just delayed until now. In fact, it was because Xian Yue did not dare to face it. Now he has taken this step and completed the victory over his inner demon.

Without the inner demons, people's beliefs will be more firm, which will be a boost to Xiyue's future growth.

In fact, in the original novel, the reason why Xiong Yue could not learn a single move was because of his inner demons.

In the distance, Ubuyashiki was standing there. Now, Lord Ubuyashiki's forehead was covered with corpse spots and he could no longer see with his eyes.

But he also seemed to be able to see everything that was happening here, with a smile on his face.
