Feng Xiaodao followed Murata to the house, which was already in ruins after the battle, as if it would collapse at any time. His eyes were attracted by two broken bodies on the ground. They were a man and a woman, their bodies were torn into pieces, bloody and horrible. The blood dyed the tatami red, emitting a strong bloody smell.

Feng Xiaodao felt angry, but he suppressed his anger and continued to observe his surroundings. Then he found a noise coming from the wooden bed next to him. He turned around and found a little girl holding a small quilt. She looked only about two years old, blinking her big eyes and looking at Feng Xiaodao curiously.

There was some blood splatter on the little girl's face, which made people feel distressed. However, surprisingly, she did not cry or scream, but sat there quietly, her eyes constantly exploring everything that was happening around her.

Feng Xiaodao noticed that the little girl was wearing simple but clean clothes, which were a little worn but had obviously been carefully washed. There was also the only quilt in the family in the cradle, which showed that her parents loved her very much.

Originally, this family should have been full of warmth and happiness, but tonight, tragedy struck and this lovely little girl lost her parents.

The little girl may have felt Feng Xiaodao's gaze. She looked at Feng Xiaodao seriously and then stretched out her two cute little hands, as if she wanted a hug!

Feng Xiaodao was a little overwhelmed, but looking into the little girl's eyes, the tenderness in his heart seemed to be touched, and he carefully picked up the little girl. The little girl was very well behaved, lying quietly in Feng Xiaodao's arms, with her little head resting on his shoulder, as if ready to sleep.

"Sigh~" Feng Xiaodao didn't know what to say. His complicated heart could only let out a sigh.

Some of the Demon Slayer Corps members nearby could not hold back their tears. The battle with evil demons would not make them cry, but this familiar scene brought back memories in everyone's hearts.

Most of the members of the Demon Slayer Corps became orphans because their families were killed by demons. If they had not been taken in by their master, they might have died on some cold night, but at this moment, they may be the ones who understand the little girl the most.

"If I were stronger, perhaps none of this would have happened!"

"When will this damn evil ghost die?"

"My God, what did humans do wrong to make you punish us like this?"

The resentment and anger in the team members' hearts were ignited at this moment. Being young, they really couldn't understand this world.

Seeing this, Feng Xiaodao was afraid of scaring the little girl in his arms, so he said softly but seriously: "I don't blame you for having such emotions. Such tragedies may happen every moment. It is precisely to prevent such tragedies that we exist!

We are all fighting against fate. Humans are creatures that can exert extraordinary power for people other than themselves. Please remember this feeling now, keep it in your heart, and let it become your powerful motivation. Protect humanity - fight against evil spirits! I am with you!"

"Protect humanity - defeat the evil spirits!" The team members' eyes became firm again.

"Murata, how do you usually deal with children like this?" Feng Xiaodao didn't know how the Demon Slayer Corps would deal with this situation.

"Master Xiaodao, if the older children are qualified, they will be brought to various trainers for instruction. If they are not qualified, they will be arranged to work in logistics services. Children who are too young can only be adopted by suitable people! But~"

Feng Xiaodao saw that Murata was hesitant to speak, and he was a little curious. Murata should be very experienced in dealing with such things. Originally, he should have handled such things by himself, but he kept him, so he said:

"Just tell me what you want to say. I'm not a cannibal. What are you afraid of?"

“Master Xiaodao, I’m very sorry. Usually the Demon Slayer Corps will find someone to adopt a child like Xiaodao and won’t take care of him anymore. After all, we are not the government and we don’t have that much energy. But as far as I know, children like this don’t have a good life later on, so…”

"So you want me to handle it, right?" Feng Xiaodao's voice suddenly became serious. Although he could understand that Murata was kind-hearted and didn't want the child to suffer in the future, this kind of thing of taking the initiative was actually very difficult for Feng Xiaodao to deal with. He was a person who hated trouble, so he still had to show his attitude, otherwise everyone would really think he was kind.

"I'm sorry, Master Xiaodao!" Murata knelt down in fear and begged:

"Sir, the adopted children are really miserable. Most of them don't live to adulthood. Some are treated like animals, some are sold to Yuguo to become geishas, ​​and some are starved to death. I hope you can have pity on these children!

If it were an adult, at least the team would take it seriously!"

Looking at Murata kneeling on the ground, all the team members knelt down and pleaded together: "Yidaren, please forgive Brother Murata!"

Feng Xiaodao looked at the group of disabled team members kneeling on the ground begging, and then looked at the little girl in his arms who was holding his clothes tightly with her hands, and said seriously:

"There are so many things like this that I can't handle them all by myself. Instead of wasting time on such things, what I need to do is to kill the evil spirits so that such things don't happen more.

What the world needs is not rescue, but change. Even if there are no evil spirits, there will be many such things happening. After all, this is a class issue. You may not understand it now, but you will understand it later!

I'll take care of this matter for the little girl, and it won't happen again! I'll also talk to the owner about this matter!"

"Thank you, Lord Ichidao!" The Demon Slayer team thanked him with a look of confusion.

"By the way, does anyone know what this little girl's name is?"

"Report to the Lord, according to the information left in the house, the girl's name is Terauchi Kiyoshi!"

Feng Xiaodao then gave a few instructions and left.

Only Murata seemed to understand Feng Xiaodao's words. He looked at Feng Xiaodao's departing figure with burning eyes and made up his mind secretly.

It was inconvenient for Feng Xiaodao to kill demons with a child in his arms, so he had to go back to the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters first. He had already thought of a solution, which was to hand the child over to Butterfly House and let Kanae and her sister take care of it. After all, he already had Kanae with him, so one more would be about the same.

Fortunately, there was Mr. Cat along the way. The little girl was curious about this animal that stayed on Feng Xiaodao's body like herself, and always wanted to grab Mr. Cat's tail. She played like this all the way, so she didn't have time to cry.

He soon arrived at the Butterfly House and met Kanae, and told her the whole story. Kanae accepted Terauchi Kiyoshi without any complaints.

Only the girl Shinobu Kocho was complaining.

"Xiaodao-kun, I have a favor to ask of you!" Kanae suddenly said just as Feng Xiaodao was about to leave.

Feng Xiaodao stopped and said generously: "Ms. Kanae, just speak up. I will go through fire and water for you!"

"It's about one of my juniors, Fuzugawa Saneya. I hope you can help..."

"No problem!" Thinking that he had just thrown a burden to someone, Feng Xiaodao agreed readily after hearing it.

After Feng Xiaodao left.

"Sister! I feel like Brother Xiaodao is targeting you!" Shinobu Kocho suddenly said.

Kanae was stunned for a moment, then she said naturally: "Little girl, you think too much. Xiaodao-kun is a gentle person, so he agreed to my request. Look, he saved Terauchi Kiyoshi!"

"It's all a disguise. He's not gentle at all. He was so rude in training me! And he's still asking for money!"
