The nine pillars had already had a premonition in their hearts that the important thing the lord was talking about was nothing more than that the ghosts had overcome the fatal weakness of sunlight.

However, even in the face of such a grim reality, some people still had a glimmer of hope in their hearts, hoping that this news was just a lie.

After all, if the ghosts could really walk freely in the sunlight, how could humans, who were already at a disadvantage, put an end to this thousand-year-old enemy?

However, when they saw the unprecedented serious expression of the lord, the last glimmer of hope in their hearts was ruthlessly broken.

The hot-tempered Wind Pillar Shiya was the first to break the silence, and he said viciously:

"Since the sunlight has failed, I will chop it with a knife and burn it with fire! I must eliminate all these evil ghosts without leaving a single one!"

The scar on his face looked even more hideous with his angry expression, but this murderous word was resonated and recognized by the other eight pillars.

They all nodded, expressing their agreement with the Wind Pillar's point of view.

Ubuyashiki Yoya smiled with relief and said softly: "Don't be so pessimistic. Although the demons have evolved to this level, we are not without help."

As he spoke, he looked at Minato and others with slightly cloudy eyes.

"Thanks to them this time, children like Kyojuro and Tanjiro can return safely.

Facing the attack of four upper-rank demons, they successfully killed two and defeated two. There is no doubt that they are our new hope."

Hearing this, the nine pillars cast their eyes on Minato and others.

Their eyes were full of doubt and inquiry, but more of a kind of ardent expectation.

Facing these eyes, Minato and others had different reactions.

Minato and Nawaki returned friendly smiles, Fugaku and Rasa remained calm, and the Hyuga brothers stood behind Nawaki, looking like they were following his lead.

Several girls were shy and their cheeks were slightly red.

Looking at their performance, Yoya nodded secretly in his heart.

Minato and the others did not show any negative emotions, which showed that they were positive about the proposal to become allies of the Demon Slayer Corps.

"In that case, we can consider making some further cooperation requests." Yaoya began to think about the next plan.

However, when he thought of the ages of these children in Kyojuro's intelligence, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

After all, these children are still so young, but they are forced to take on such a heavy responsibility.

But the grim reality does not allow him to hesitate too much.

Because the current Demon Slayer Corps may all rely on Minato and others to turn the tide.

Yaoya still found it hard to accept when he thought of the information sent by Kyojuro.

The upper-rank demons have actually overcome the sun, and the upper-rank three have the terrifying ability to resist the beheading of the Sun Wheel Sword.

Then as the ancestor of demons, how terrifying will the demon king Muzan reach?

This thought once made Yoya feel discouraged, but then he learned that Minato and others had successfully defeated the evil ghosts by other means, which rekindled the spark of hope in his heart.

As the representative elected by the three teams, Minato was not unaware of Yoya's inner thoughts and calculations.

But he didn't mind the lord of the Demon Slayer Corps using them.

Because their interests were the same, and they all had the ultimate goal of killing the Demon King Muzan.

Therefore, strengthening the friendly side was also acceptable.

As for why Minato and others could trust the Demon Slayer Corps so much, it was because they learned from Kyojuro that most of the people in the Demon Slayer Corps had a deep hatred for the demons.

In the past, the ninja world could not stop the war because of this hatred.

So they knew very well that the Demon Slayer Corps must stand on the same side as them in killing Muzan.

On the basis of this mutual understanding and trust, the communication between the two sides became smoother and the atmosphere gradually became harmonious.

Just when Yoya was relieved and thought that the relationship between the two sides was progressing steadily, three men suddenly appeared in front of them.

Xingliu looked at Madara and Hashirama, and said with a little reproach in his tone:

"I asked you to come here to watch Minato and the others. Who told you to fight when you have nothing to do?!"

Hearing this, Hashirama smiled awkwardly and scratched his head to apologize.

Even the always arrogant Madara turned his head away, not daring to look at Xingliu.

The two of them fought on a whim, and even forgot that Minato and the others were still waiting.

It was not until Xingliu came that they woke up from their dreams.

At this time, the other members of the Demon Slayer Corps also came to their senses.

Because they had never met before, they mistakenly thought thatBecause Xingliu and others were evil spirits who used blood demon arts to sneak into this place.

Therefore, they quickly drew out their Nichirin swords, took a fighting stance, and faced Xingliu and others vigilantly.

At the same time, several pillars rushed to Yaoya's side at lightning speed and protected him closely to ensure his safety.

Seeing the tense atmosphere between the two sides, Minato hurriedly stepped forward to explain: "Please calm down, these are my teachers, they are not enemies."

Kyojuro also recognized the people as if he had just woken up from a dream, and he quickly agreed:

"Yes, these three are indeed Minato's teachers. Please don't misunderstand and let your guard down."

After teaching Madara and Hashirama a lesson, Xingliu finally had the opportunity to take a closer look at the people present.

However, the scene in front of him almost made him collapse.

In his perception, the breath of the living in this room was not as much as the dead.

Behind those pillars, there were almost one or two souls, as if they were their guardians.

For example, the Kasumi-Hira Tokito Muichiro, next to him is the soul of his brother, Ichiro.

The most touching one is the Rock Pillar, who is surrounded by the souls of a group of children.

These children are undoubtedly the orphans he once adopted and cared for.

Xingliu couldn't help but feel a little emotional: this doesn't look like a meeting, it's just a big gathering with all the family members!

However, he can also deeply understand the emotions of these souls.

What they are most worried about are the family members who are still in the world and still fighting for them.

Therefore, although such a scene is a bit unexpected, it is also reasonable.

And this deep emotion makes Xingliu feel very moved.

So he subconsciously smiled and conveyed goodwill to these souls.

However, other people can't see the souls that Xingliu sees, and they mistakenly think that this smile is directed at them.

After Minato and Kyojuro's explanation, they all put away their knives and expressed their sincerity and friendship to Xingliu and others.

At the same time, the souls around them were all stunned.

They looked at Xingliu in disbelief, as if they were surprised that he could see them and convey kindness to them.

This unexpected discovery shocked these souls and made them more interested and curious about Xingliu.
