Visible to the naked eye, the aura on Yuanyi's body gradually weakened.
It seemed that the memories brought him back to the person he was ten years ago.
That was the time when he was most frustrated, and the time when he was most frustrated was also the time when he defeated Oni Wu Senmuzan and became the strongest person in the world.
This is probably due to fate...
Looking at the depressed Yuanyi, Gawain was silent for a moment, then raised his hand and put it on Yuanyi's shoulder.
Thinking of Yuiichi's future achievements, in other words, it was Yuiichi who created a series of power systems such as the breathing valve and the patterned sword, and also defeated the Demon Maigenmu, which allowed the Japanese humans and the Demon Slayer Squad to persist to a thousand years.
Later in the Taisho era.
In the same way, it was because of Enichi that he gave the Breath of the Sun to the Kamado family.
Only then will there be Kamado Tanjiro in the future who can completely put an end to Onimai's tragedy.
Today's Yuanyi feels like a failure.
But the future he created never failed.
Thinking like this, Gawain patted Yuanyi on the shoulder and said softly.
"Don't be so disappointed, Yuanyi, your life so far is by no means meaningless.
Don’t think that you are a worthless person, I won’t allow you to think like that, after all, even a piece of shit has its own meaning and use.”
After saying that, Gawain grinned and tried to dilute Yuan Yi's inner disappointment with simple peeing.
Gawain's words did have a considerable effect, and he regained a little hope visibly.
But Yuanyi doesn't cheer up because of his shit.
The reason why he cheered up was because what Gawain just said strangely overlapped with what the Kamado family said to Enichi back then!
After being repeatedly expelled by the Demon Slayer Squad, Yui met the ancestor of Kamado Tanjiro by chance.
Full of disappointment, he accepted the reception of the Kamado family, and left his sun disk earrings and his own sun breathing method for the Kamado family.
When he decided to leave, the Kamado ancestors, grateful for his kindness, yelled at Yuanyi and said similar words to Gawain.
Therefore, Yuanyi, who was now brought back to the past by Gawain, finally cheered up and straightened up.
"I know, I shouldn't continue to fall!
Sir, in the past I... seemed to have lost my purpose in the constant blows.
The constant failure and the fate of causing harm to others may have made me forget what I should do!
Even without you, I should have continued to work hard to track the traces of ghosts and the figure of Ghost Dance.
Although I gave feedback on your appearance, I was not active enough, far from active enough!
I almost forgot that in addition to my failed life, I also carry hatred!
Blood feud!!!
I am no longer a member of the Demon Slayer Corps, and I no longer have a master, so I will obey all your requests!
And there is only one thing I ask for.
I want to kill the ghost Wu Qian Muzan, kill him, the source of all ghosts, and completely end the tragedy of ghosts wreaking havoc on the world!
thorough!!!"
After the words fell, Yuan Yi made a plop and knelt heavily in front of Gawain.
When he slammed his head on the ground, his memories kept entangled in his mind, making his eyes inevitably become wet.
In the scale of his mind at this time, standing on the left was his elder brother, Jiguo Yansheng!
And on the right….
There stood a gentle woman and an faceless child!
At that time, the thirteen-year-old Yuanyi was officially raised by his father as the heir of the family.
Yuanyi's mother died of illness in the family.
The pain of losing his mother impacted Yuanyi's heart, and the pain of betraying his brother tortured Yuanyi's soul.
Yes, in Yuichi's view, taking away his brother's heir status was a kind of betrayal, and he felt that he had hurt his brother.
Therefore, the thirteen-year-old Yuanyi ran away.
He betrayed the high hopes of his father and family, took away the family's ideals, and ran away!
But after that, the painful Yuanyi met a woman who took care of him tenderly, Xiaoshi!
After being healed by Xiao Shi, Yuanyi and Xiao Shi got married and gave birth to a child.
When Xiaoshi was about to give birth, Yuanyi left home and went to a nearby village to find a stable mother-in-law for her lover.
But in the process of searching for Wen Po, he met an old woman with a bad heart.
The old man was anxious to see his son behind the three mountains, because her son was about to follow Oda Nobunaga to the battlefield.
The kind-hearted Yuanyi felt that his wife would not give birth for at least two or three days, so he decided to look for Wen Po one day later and send the old woman to his son first.
The reason for doing this... is that I finally returned to my home later than originally planned.
So when he returned home, what he saw was his wife, who had been killed by ghosts and eaten to a certain extent, and the only half of the fetus left near his wife's dissected belly...
Half a fetus….
The other half is destined to be in the belly of the ghost...
No matter who is hit by such a tragedy, they may not be able to maintain their kindness.
Kindness is a quality that can never be despised, and kindness is even more valuable because it often comes with a price.
The moment he saw the corpses of his lover and child, Enichi went crazy. He sat there for about ten days, and was finally found by the Demon Slayer Squad who were passing by to investigate.
He didn't have any resentment towards the old woman, she was indeed a person in need of help.
He doesn't hate himself either, because he knows that someone else is wrong.
But no matter how strong his mind was, such grief made him completely fall into silence.
This silence did not end until he met another relative.
Soon after he joined the Demon Slayer Corps and taught breathing techniques and markings to the Demon Slayer Corps members.
During a ghost hunting operation, he saved his family and his brother.
During the following period, Yuanyi became more angry because he found a certain sense of existence in the rescue operation.
And after his elder brother saw the reality of the world and the existence of the Demon Slayer Corps, he resolutely abandoned the family and turned to his younger brother Enichi Tsukuni.
From this day until three years later.
The two brothers spent the happiest time in their lives.
Help each other, support each other, everything is just like when we were children.
They no longer have to be hostile to each other because of their father's orders.
They also have the only goal of hunting ghosts.
That period of time will never be forgotten by Yuanyi!
until…….
It was that night that tragedy happened.
Tsukuni Iwakatsu sneak attacked the Lord of the Demon Slayer Squad and cut off the Lord's head in front of his six-year-old son!
He sacrificed his head to Oni Wuqianmuzan in exchange for his identity as a ghost.
Yes, Ji Kuni Iwakatsu was about to die at that time.
As the eldest son of Jiguo, although Jiguo Iwakatsu is not as good as Enichi, he still has a unique talent for swordsmanship.
Not only did he master the breathing method very quickly, he also advanced to become a pillar and quickly turned on his markings!
Perhaps because he has the same bloodline as Enichi, Iwakatsu turned on his patterns so quickly that the first members of the Demon Slayer Corps who turned on their patterns were not dead yet.
But just when Yan Sheng didn't even have time to enjoy the improvement and strength brought by the pattern, let alone get the results and honors that he could be proud of.
The first batch of people who turned on stripes began to die one after another!
At that time, every warrior who had learned stripes became determined to die after realizing their fate.
They appeared on more dangerous battlefields and continued to die in battles that produced more results.
People who can give priority to turning on their stripes are relatively the better ones. They are determined and have a strong fighting spirit, and they are better able to appreciate the changes that stripes bring to them.
They don't hate Yuanyi, but are still grateful.
But it is undeniable that the first batch of people who turned on their patterns were almost all members of the Demon Slayer Corps at the time...
Those pillars have more than one person's interests, they have their own close subordinates, their descendants who look up to and respect them, and their step-sons and step-daughters whom they cultivate as heirs.
Just because they don't hate Yuanyi doesn't mean that the people around them don't.
Their elders died because of Enichi, and the young people could no longer suppress their resentment. They rejected the pattern, even rejected Enichi, and by the way, they no longer respected Jiguo Yansheng.
For Yan Sheng, the pain of death and the loss of reputation were a double blow.
As the saying goes, flies don't bite seamless eggs. When Yan Sheng's heart showed flaws for the first time, cracks also appeared. Then, everything was not far from being shattered.
Under the threat of death, countless years rushed into Yan Sheng's mind.
Among them is his jealousy towards his younger brother...and a vague and almost invisible hatred!
He couldn't outshine his younger brother.
He is just a family heir who was almost kicked off. Everything he has now comes from the charity of his younger brother...
The owner of the house is a charity from his younger brother.
My own life...that is, the life that was saved by my younger brother in front of the ghost, was also a charity from my younger brother.
As for his swordsmanship and breathing skills, they were all donated by his brother.
Especially... stripes and the doomed death that is so close at hand.
That's not just a charity from my brother, it's also the most ruthless gift from my brother!!!
In this way, Iwakatsu's actions broke the balance between ghosts and humans, allowing the ghosts and the Demon Slayer Team to launch a general attack.
Of course, this also created the first disastrous defeat for Ghost Dance.
Ignoring those mentions, he now gradually recalled the painful past of his brother. After taking a deep breath, he said to Gawain with implicit expectation.
"In the past few years, I haven't done anything.
Although I have no fixed address, I am no longer a member of the Demon Slayer Corps.
But I still maintain a certain degree of contact with the Demon Slayer Pillars, and at the same time... I also relied on some reliable friends to investigate a certain extent of ghost news.
Please don't ask me where I got the information. In short... I have always had information about a certain important ghost.
I think……."
Having said this, Ji Guoyuan took a troubled breath.
After a while, he breathed steadily, and then spoke to Gawain word by word.
"I think I shouldn't hide it, the ghost that concerns me the most... is my brother back then!
After the ghost dance Qian Muzan completely disappeared, only a few ghosts still dared to stay in the human world.
My brother is one of them!
He killed some people in revenge, and occasionally even waited for me there for a while.
It's just that I couldn't rush there in time at that time. What's more, I...I...
I am such a failure, I can't make up my mind to kill him!
But it’s different now!
In the past, my legitimate hatred was diluted by a past relationship.
The hatred that resurfaces now reminds me of another most important relationship!
So, Lord Gawain!"
Ji Guoyuan suddenly knelt down in front of Gawain in a seated position. He lowered his head to the ground, tried hard to suppress his tears, and yelled at Gawain.
"I want to make a break with the past and completely pick up the work I should have worked hard on!
My kindness has killed many people, so I shouldn't let my kindness kill more people!
Starting with my brother, I hope to go to his location immediately and personally end his past sins and avenge my past master!
At that time, I will be able to call you my lord sincerely!!!"
After speaking, Ji Guoyuan raised his head and looked at Gawain with his blood-red eyes.
Facing Yuanyi's eyes, Gawain was silent for a moment, and then he puffed out his cigarette leisurely.
"I particularly hated your weakness in the past, but I like your strength and determination now.
But, are you sure that your current physical condition can fight with your current brother?
You, you beat me until I look like I am about to die from the beating, how hard it is.
In my opinion, you should just recuperate and recuperate. How about we set off in three days?"
"Absolutely not, sir!!!"
For some reason, Ji Guoyuan suddenly interrupted Gao Wen's words.
"Sir, the way you showed your true self near Shinano has been seen by too many people!
Even if such news is difficult to believe in people far away, the two of us are at war...
No, the traces of my arrogant challenge to you have also been left in the Shinano area.
Ghost Wuqian Wuhan can see everything that ghosts see!
As long as any ghost sees such traces, they will be frightened by my actions and yours and hide deeper!
Therefore, I must set out as soon as possible and get close to my brother as quickly as possible, so that I can possibly find the specific location where he is hiding and completely cut off the bond between me and him!"
"Well, I understand, the reason why you must take action as soon as possible.
Of course I won't stop a man from making legitimate decisions, but I will inevitably worry about you.
Then let me ask again, are you sure that in your current state you will be a match for your brother?"
"I'm sure, absolutely sure!"
Facing Gawain's question, Ji Guoyuan nodded with absolute certainty.
Then he stood up, pulled out the knife from his waist, and knelt in front of Gawain again.
Holding up the knife in his hand, Ji Guoyuan said decisively with his last bit of self-confidence.
"Even if my career is exhausted, I will pass away in the blink of an eye.
I can chop off his head instantly!
The length of life does not determine the strength of strength. I never lack confidence, I just lack determination.
Thank you, my lord!
Even if I have not yet witnessed the divine help you are about to give me, I have already received the gift you have given me!
Your existence brings me hope of ending the demons and ghosts, and even ending this troubled world!
As long as I do it fast enough, you can do more!
Therefore, I must ask my brother to die, and I no longer feel bad about killing him.
