Hearing Xingliu's words, the whole scene fell into silence.

Yaoya smiled helplessly and said earnestly: "Sir, can't you really help? We are willing to pay any price!"

Xingliu responded calmly: "You underestimated the strength of Minato and others, and underestimated your potential."

"Don't worry, as long as there is no unexpected situation, they are fully capable of passing the test of killing Muzan."

Yaoya saw Xingliu's firm attitude and knew that it would be useless to say more. He could only sigh and accept the reality.

After the matter came to an end, the others saluted Xingliu and thanked him: "Thank you for your kindness, sir, so that we can relieve the pain of missing you in our hearts."

Xingliu gently waved his hand, indicating that they were not polite, it was just a piece of cake for him.

Just then, a member of the Demon Slayer Corps came in a hurry.

Although he covered most of his face with a mask, his anxious eyes still showed his urgency.

Without informing, he rushed directly to Yoya and said anxiously: "My Lord, it's an emergency! There is an urgent report that you need to know!"

Yoya raised his hand to signal Saneya to calm down, and then calmly said to the Hidden Member: "Don't worry, talk slowly, tell us the details of the situation."

The Hidden Member took a deep breath, tried to calm his rapid breathing, and then continued:

"According to our intelligence, there are upper-rank demons holding thousands of innocent people in Yoshiwara Yukaku.

They asked us to hand over a female demon named Nezuko, otherwise they would kill these hostages."

His words made the pillars present frown.

Thousands of hostages, this number made them feel extremely difficult.

Even if they acted together, they were not sure that these people would not be injured or killed.

And compromising with the demons was also a difficult choice for these pillars.

Tanjiro originally thought that he came to the pillar meeting just to be a bystander.

But he didn't expect that the melon would be eaten directly on him.

After hearing what the hidden member said, he subconsciously tightly grasped the box on his back carrying his sister, with an angry and tangled expression on his face.

He knew that the lives of thousands of people were now hanging on his sister, which made him, a kind-hearted person, fall into a deep struggle.

Minato and others looked at each other and were speechless for a while.

According to the style of ninjas, he might choose to use the thousand people as bait to annihilate the evil spirits in one fell swoop.

After all, this world is not their homeland, and he does not have a deep sense of belonging.

Moreover, if these people die because of evil spirits, what does it have to do with them?

Xingliu saw that everyone on the field was tangled, and he couldn't help sighing.

He tapped Minato's head gently. Although the sound was not loud, everyone present heard it clearly.

"You just graduated from the ninja school, and you have forgotten everything you learned?" Xingliu's tone was a little dissatisfied.

Minato touched his head that was hit and looked confused.

Seeing this, Xingliu pointed helplessly at the forehead protector on his forehead and asked, "What is your profession?"

"A ninja from Konoha," Minato replied.

"What are the three basic techniques of ninja?" Xingliu continued to ask.

A glimmer of light flashed in Minato's eyes, and he understood what Xingliu meant.

He turned to look at the other pillars, and seeing that they were still confused, he explained:

"The three basic techniques of ninja include transformation, clone and substitute.

Since the evil spirits want Nezuko, we can use clone and transformation techniques to make my clone look like Nezuko to deal with them."

Hearing this explanation, the eyes of the pillars gradually brightened, and their previously frowned brows began to relax.

This method can protect innocent hostages and avoid direct compromise with evil spirits. It is indeed a best of both worlds.

Ubuyashiki Yoya stared at Xingliu and Minato, and his gratitude was overflowing.

He sincerely praised: "Sir and Minato are both wise and brave, we admire them very much."

Minato humbly touched the back of his head, feeling a little ashamed of the praise.

He knew that if it weren't for Xingliu's clever reminder, he would probably have difficulty coming up with such a clever plan.

However, he noticed a subtle light flashing in Xingliu's eyes, and he immediately had a premonition in his heart: this reminder might not be free.

Sure enough, Xingliu's next words confirmed his guess.

"Your reaction this time was a little slow, so the reward after passing the assessment will be reduced by one level."

Xingliu said calmly: "If you want to exchange for S-level ninjutsu, you need to exchange for A-level ninjutsu, understand?"

Everyone heard this and immediately responded in a low voice with their heads down: "I understand."

Only KushinNai was unwilling to accept the punishment like this.

She walked to Xingliu, gently took his arm, and said coquettishly: "Teacher Xingliu, please don't be so strict."

"We have just graduated, and it is inevitable that we will be negligent. Can you please show some mercy and let us go this time?"

Xingliu looked at Kushina's appearance, which was very different from usual, and couldn't help feeling helpless.

Although her coquettishness caught him off guard, he also realized that her words were not unreasonable.

So he gently pulled her arm away and said in a gentle tone: "Okay, I'll let you go for now. But remember, this won't happen again."

Hearing Xingliu's words, Kushina cheered and jumped for joy: "Long live Teacher Xingliu!"

Then she tried to get close to Xingliu again, but he cleverly dodged her.

Xingliu looked at the girl in front of him, with a hint of complex emotions in his eyes.

As a person who has been through it, he is no longer a novice who knows nothing, so he can naturally see Kushina's feelings for him.

However, Kushina was still too young, and seemed too immature in every aspect.

Kushina noticed Xingliu's reaction and couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

Especially when she saw Xingliu glance at her chest and showed a disgusted expression, she was so angry that smoke was about to come out of her head.

However, when she glanced at the plump figure of Kanroji Mitsuri beside Xingliu, she suddenly felt like a deflated ball.

She unconsciously compared her figure with Kanroji Mitsuri's, especially after seeing her milky white snow, she couldn't help but wail in her heart:

"There is no comparison at all! How can it be as big as a human? This is totally unhealthy!"

Thinking about these messy things, she didn't notice that the people present had already discussed countermeasures.

They planned to transform Minato's shadow clone into Nezuko first, and let the moth take it to exchange with the evil spirit.

After the hostages were rescued, the rest of the pillars and Minato worked together to deal with the upper demon.
