Anime Crossover: My Cheat Code is Myself

Page 243

They blindfolded the remaining children and put them together to fight.

They use a method similar to raising poisonous insects, where they kill each other to leave behind the strongest child to carry on the family line.

By the time Uzui Tengen discovered all this, it was already too late.

Having killed his own brother and knowing he had no way to change anything, the only thing he could do was leave the family with his three wives.

Therefore, Tengen Uzui joined the Demon Slayer Corps entirely out of a desire for redemption.

So his ideal wasn't to exorcise all the evil spirits, leaving none behind, but rather to purify one Upper Moon demon and then recommend it to his wives as a second-in-command.

All his efforts in the Demon Slayer Corps were aimed at this goal.

And in the process, because of his own guilt, he put the lives of others completely above his own.

In Tianyuan's eyes, the lives of his wives are the most important, followed by ordinary people, and lastly himself.

Because his hands are filled with sin.

The reason he respected his lord so much was because Kagaya Ubuyashiki gave him a chance to atone for his sins, allowing him to redeem himself by slaying evil spirits and protecting humanity.

Although Xia Yan's metaphor did not mention his past in a single word, it undoubtedly reminded him of his past.

To put it simply, it was like being stabbed in the heart.

"So, after hearing this, is there anything you want to refute..." Xia Yan raised an eyebrow at Yuzui Tengen.

"..."

Uzui Tengen rolled his eyes but didn't respond, but his attitude clearly indicated his agreement.

"There's nothing particularly special about the others. Xingming is the kind of strong woman who was heartbroken because of the interference of a despicable person, lost faith in love, and was then redeemed by the male protagonist."

"Namo Amitabha Buddha," Xingming of Beiming Island chanted softly.

"Shinzogawa is the kind of person who is stubbornly arrogant and uses his temper to mask his true feelings."

"Are you looking to die, you bastard!" Shinazugawa Sanemi roared, his eyes wide with rage.

"Iguro is the kind of girl who takes on mistakes that aren't hers, and she's very sensitive."

"Hmph↗? It's amazing you could come up with such an outrageous evaluation. No wonder you're a weirdo who can even keep ghosts at home." Obanai Iguro said sarcastically.

However, surprisingly, none of them refuted these comments; at most, they launched some mild personal attacks against Xia Yan.

"Um... why isn't there any comment about Mr. Tokito?"

Kanroji Mitsuri looked at the Tokito brothers, and was then glared at fiercely by Tokito Ichiro, causing her to timidly look away.

"Huh? Those two brats..." Xia Yan waved his hand casually and said, "Underage brats are not within my hunting range. I never go after children."

Although she didn't understand what Xia Yan meant by the last four words, Kanroji Mitsuri wisely refrained from asking, knowing that she would become impure if she found out. Instead, she pointed to herself with a look of anticipation.

"And what about me? What about me? If I were a girl, what kind of woman would I be?"

Xia Yan remained silent for a moment, then sighed softly and looked at her with a loving gaze.

"Silly child, you are a woman by nature..."

Chapter 368 One sentence can control a teammate for five seconds

If anyone else had asked such a thoughtless question, Xia Yan could have laughed at them for half an hour without repeating himself.

However, he only returned a caring look to Kanroji Mitsuri.

After all, as someone who never ages, I tend to be more tolerant of beautiful women.

puff--.

Realizing she had made a foolish mistake, Kanroji Mitsuri felt the gazes of her seniors, and her slightly chubby face turned bright red.

It was my first time attending the Pillar Meeting, and I wanted to make a good impression on my seniors...

This time, I'm going to be laughed at for a long time!

We need to find a way to change the subject.

Kanroji Mitsuri started a brainstorming session.

"Um... what kind of person do you think our lord would be if he were a girl...?"

"Hmm? Kagaya? Let me think..."

Xia Yan stroked his chin, searching through his memories of the impressions Kagaya Ubuyashiki had left on him over the past few years.

Unlike the other Pillars who, having read comics in their previous lives, already knew most of their general experiences and could therefore accurately assess them even if they weren't very familiar with them, this Pillar is different.

As the leader of the Demon Slayer Corps, Kagaya Ubuyashiki doesn't have many scenes.

Therefore, Xia Yan's understanding of him actually comes more from personal contact in life.

Fortunately, the relationship between the two of them, compared to the other pillars, is not that of an elder and a junior, but more like that of friends.

Furthermore, due to Natsuhiko's special position in the Demon Slayer Corps, Kagaya Ubuyashiki assigns him more exclusive missions, and their relationship is also closer because of their special agreement.

After all, it's a coincidence that Kagaya Ubuyashiki has a beautiful wife.

What's even more coincidental is that Xia Yan also likes his beautiful wife.

They share common interests, so they're natural-born partners! (Seriously?)

"How should I put it? She's a very gentle, tolerant person—no, I should say she has a strong maternal instinct..."

"She's the kind of person who, even if you make an unreasonable request, won't scold you. She'll just gently pull you into her arms and say in a slightly helpless tone, 'I just can't do anything with you, this is just a one-time thing!'"

Xia Yan has a lot to say on this matter.

After all, most members of the Demon Slayer Corps don't make any unreasonable demands when they join, and no one sends their master a scary magic box.

You could say that the entire Demon Slayer Corps combined doesn't cause as much trouble as him.

Even so, Kagaya Ubuyashiki never blamed him, and even indulged his many strange ideas and practices.

This inclusiveness, perhaps it's not quite the right word, did indeed give Xia Yan a feeling of maternal love.

Thinking of this, Xia Yan shivered inexplicably.

I silently kept repeating to myself, "I don't want a male mother, I don't want a male mother."

Seemingly stunned by Xia Yan's evaluation, the courtyard fell into an eerie silence for a moment, with no one uttering a sound.

Xia Yan: With one sentence, he can control all the Pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps for five seconds.

"Pfft, hehehehaha..."

A gentle, warm laugh broke the silence of the courtyard.

Looking in the direction of the sound, they saw that Ubuyashiki Kagaya, supported by Hina and Hinata, had already walked out of the room.

Saying it's helping someone up isn't quite accurate; "traction" would be a more precise term.

Although he was seriously ill, he was still quite agile, only his eyes were completely blind, so he could not see clearly.

Two years ago, Kagaya Ubuyashiki's illness had already caused him to lose his sight.

The dosage has been increasing month by month, and now it has reached the point where he needs to take the medication in advance before he can preside over a meeting.

But the current situation seems pretty good.

Judging from Kagaya Ubuyashiki's reaction, he had clearly been listening to Natsuhiko's comments for quite some time.

"Hehe, what an interesting perspective. So that's how you see me? It seems you really want a female lord..."

Kagaya Ubuyashiki said with a light laugh, his tone full of teasing. He had clearly not forgotten the type of lord Natsuhiko had described when they first met.

"Yes, yes, so why don't we try to train Hina and Hinata, Kanata and Kanna?"

"Hey! Narukami Tsuki, what are you doing spouting nonsense in front of our lord?! Show some respect!!!"

As Kagaya Ubuyashiki's most loyal follower, Sanemi Shinazugawa couldn't help but rebuke Natsuhiko for his insolence.

If he hadn't tried several times before and confirmed that he really couldn't beat Xia Yan, this hot-tempered guy would probably have pounced on him by now.

"Respect is something you keep in your heart. And when a person who worships Buddha is starving, he will eat the offerings to the Buddha statue. If he doesn't eat them, I think Buddha will feel sad."

Xia Yan simply replied calmly.

However, what he said made the great monk Beimingyu Xingming spit out his mouth, feeling that something was strange, but he couldn't refute it.

“It’s alright, Sanemi. Natsuhiko was just joking with me, he didn’t mean any disrespect.”

Kagaya Ubuyashiki first reassured Sanemi Shinazugawa, then smiled and rejected Natsuhiko's unreliable joke.

"Forget it, let Kiriya take on this heavy burden. Let the girls have it easy..."

In fact, for him, it didn't matter whether the family heir was male or female; the Ubuyashiki family had had female heads of the family for many years.

After all, the Ubuyashiki family was cursed to have short lifespans, and not every head of the family could happen to have a son.

There has never been a case like his, where a woman gave birth to five children, both boys and girls.

Although this curse is passed down through bloodlines, it seems more like a curse on the Ubuyashiki clan. As long as a woman marries before the age of thirteen or leaves the Ubuyashiki clan, she will not be affected by the curse.

Therefore, his decision not to let his daughter inherit the position of family head was actually for her sake.

"That's right, that's right, I have great respect for my lord! If my lord were to pass away, I would definitely take good care of his wife and children!"

"You just have a penchant for erotica, don't you!"

Shinobu Kocho, who had been silent until now, couldn't help but scoff at Xia Yantian's shameless remarks.

After all, when Natsuhiko first came to the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters, Shinobu Kocho and Kanae Harmony were also present.

Shinobu Kocho was deeply impressed by how Shinobu pestered Mrs. Amane with questions during their first meeting.

Chapter 369 Genya: Tanjiro's sacrifice was too great

"Who said that! Don't slander me! I can refuse to change my surname!"

"Wouldn't that make it even more astringent?"

Shinobu Kocho delivered another precise finishing blow.

After all, she lived in the Butterfly House and often visited Xia Yan's house to help out when she had free time. Occasionally, she would also work alongside her sister, so she was very familiar with the situation of Xia Yan's family.
