From Demon Slayer, the sword is invincible

Chapter 40: Ubuyashiki Teriya

"Madam, why do you insist that Huiliya become Xiaodao's disciple? Although I also admire Xiaodao-san, it is not worth it for you to do this!" Ubuyashiki asked the question in his heart.

"Danna, you don't know. Although Xiaodao-san looks careless, he is actually very delicate in his heart. And his thoughts and strength are perfect for teaching Huiliya." Ubuyashiki Amane said seriously.

"Besides, your body may not be able to survive until the day when little Huiliya grows up!"

When talking about her husband's health, Tianyin's eyes were full of worry and reluctance.

“Amane, don’t be like this. This is the fate of our Ubuyashiki clan. I am fighting against fate. I understand what you mean!”

"Feng Xiaodao has a great chance of becoming the strongest member of the Demon Slayer Corps. I don't think he is a person who is keen on power. With his support, Huiliya will be able to successfully take on the burden of resisting the evil demons!" Ubuyashiki already understood his wife's approach.

"I think so too. This world is not peaceful. Only with enough strength can you protect yourself and your family. I don't want to see Teriyachi get hurt in the future." Ubuyashiki Amane's eyes were full of worry.

"Feng Xiaodao is a very sentimental person. We can tell from his attitude towards Kanae that if Hui Liya can become his disciple, he will definitely be well protected!"

Ubuyashiki was silent for a moment, and finally understood his wife's good intentions. "Thank you for your hard work, Amane. I hope that under Xiaodao's guidance, Huiliya can become an excellent person."

Tianyin looked at Ubuyashiki quietly, her eyes full of tenderness, and said with emotion: "How wonderful it would be if there were no ghosts in the world. Our family could live a peaceful and happy life."

"So, Demon King Muzan must die. If I can't live, I hope to succeed in the era of Huiliya. The appearance of Feng Xiaodao has given me hope again!" Ubuyashiki's eyes were extremely firm, as if he had seen the utopia of the future.

The next day, Feng Xiaodao just came back from having dinner at Kanae's place.

I saw a little kid standing straight at the door of his house, not saying anything or looking around, just standing there quietly. When he saw Feng Xiaodao coming over, he quickly saluted and shouted:

"Teacher, Ubuyashiki Teriya will follow you to practice from today. Just let me know if you need anything!"

Feng Xiaodao really has a lot of thoughts at this moment. In his impression, this child, Huiliya, will take over the position of leader of the Demon Slayer Corps at the age of 8 after his parents sacrifice themselves to lure Muzan to die together with him.

The first time he appeared was as the chief examiner when the charcoal seller participated in the final selection. Despite his young age, he was extremely precocious, like an adult, without any of the innocence of a child. Perhaps it was the curse of the Ubuyashiki clan and the Japanese education that made this child look very mature.

It's heartbreaking to say that little Teriyachi is so pitiful, but looking at the entire Demon Slayer world, there are many more miserable people. Just look at the large numbers of young swordsmen in the Demon Slayer Corps and you will understand that the whole world is miserable.

No matter what happens in the future, I have already promised to teach him well, just as a reward to the old man. If the old man knew this news, he would definitely be very proud! Looking at this four or five-year-old boy wearing girl's clothes, Hui Liya said:

"Come in with me first!"

"Yes, teacher!" replied little Hui Liya in a serious tone.

The two of them came directly to the training ground. Feng Xiaodao did not start training right away, but sat casually under the eaves.

"Huili, come and sit down!"

When Xiao Huiliya heard what Feng Xiaodao said, he knelt down beside him. Feng Xiaodao couldn't stand it and said directly: "Sit like me!"

At this time, Feng Xiaodao was sitting casually on the wooden floor under the eaves. Because the bottom of a Japanese house is suspended in the air, when he sat on the edge of the house, his feet would be dangling in the air.

After all, Hui Liya was still a child and was a little overwhelmed. His parents' etiquette taught him that this was disrespectful to others, so he was a little hesitant. Seeing this, Feng Xiaodao asked, "Huiliya, what did your parents say to you before you came?"

"Teacher, my father and mother told me to follow your instructions in everything!" said little Hui Liya seriously.

"Then why don't you listen to me? Sit down like me!"

Xiao Huiliya had to move his body awkwardly and imitate Feng Xiaodao to sit down, feeling a little uneasy.

"Come closer, sit next to me!"

Xiao Huiliya hesitated for a moment and finally did as Feng Xiaodao said, but his straight body showed that the child was still a little nervous.

Seeing this, Feng Xiaodao prepared to chat with the child to make him feel more comfortable. "Is this comfortable?"

"Well... not bad." Hui Liya answered in a low voice, with an inexplicable look in his eyes.

"Don't be so tense, relax." Feng Xiaodao said with a smile, "I'm your teacher, you don't have to worry about my arrangements. If anyone talks too much, let him come to me and see how I deal with him!"

Feng Xiaodao touched Xiao Huiliya's head and said, "Change to a manly hairstyle and don't wear girls' clothes in the future!"

Hui Liya looked up at Feng Xiaodao, a hint of surprise on his face, but then he thought of something and his face dimmed again. He muttered, "But, father and mother..."

"No buts. I know that the Ubuyashiki clan is cursed and weak. In order to grow up healthily, boys must dress like girls before the age of thirteen!"

"So you know that, teacher!" Xiao Huiliya was about to explain, but he didn't expect Feng Xiaodao to say all his words out loud.

"Do you like pretending to be a girl?"

"No, I don't like it!" Xiao Huiliya retorted fiercely, which was rare.

"That's right, if you don't like it, don't do this. As for the curse, you don't have to worry about it. Children shouldn't think too much. You want to believe that I can solve this problem, and I will definitely kill the Demon King Muzan!" Feng Xiaodao said confidently.

"Teacher, are you telling the truth?" Xiao Huiliya looked at Feng Xiaodao with anticipation.

Feng Xiaodao remained silent, slowly stood up, and reached out to pull out the Sun Blade from his waist. He took a deep breath, his eyes firm and focused, as if he wanted to concentrate all his strength into this moment.

Then, he swung the sword at a speed that was difficult to detect, and sheathed it in an instant, his movements as smooth and natural as flowing water. After completing all this, he sat back down and looked at the little Teriya in front of him calmly.

Xiao Huiliya was bewildered and had no idea what was going on. He stared at Feng Xiaodao with wide eyes, puzzled. Feng Xiaodao had just stood up, pulled out his knife, and sat down again. What did such a simple action mean? Was this the answer?

Just as Xiao Huiliya was lost in thought, Feng Xiaodao gently reminded him, "Look at the rockery over there."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Huiliya hurriedly turned his head to look in the direction of the rockery. Suddenly, he opened his mouth in astonishment. At some point, a straight crack appeared in the middle of the rockery that was originally intact, as if it had been cut by a sharp blade. The sunlight shone in through the crack and fell right into Xiao Huiliya's eyes, making his eyes light up instantly.

At that moment, Xiao Huiliya seemed to see the light of hope, and an inexplicable confidence and shock surged in his heart. He finally understood Feng Xiaodao's intentions, and realized how powerful his teacher was, more powerful than anyone he had ever met.

"Okay, let's talk about your interests and hobbies first. What do you like to do?" Feng Xiaodao asked.
