Yaoya stroked the scar on his forehead, his mood calm as water: "Since the time when Yiyong said he met Xiaowu, my curse has not worsened."

Kyojuro was slightly stunned when he heard his lord address Muzan.

"Xiao Wu may not really be an enemy," Yaoya said to Kyojuro, "We may have thought something wrong."

The lord of the Demon Slayer Corps always speaks and acts with reason and careful thinking.

Since he said so, he must have his own unique ideas.

Besides, Xiaowu also stayed in Purgatory Mansion for a short time. Looking back on that time, Kyojuro had a pretty good impression of her.

After quick thinking, Kyojuro agreed with his lord: "So they are not enemies!"

"Ah."

Ubuyashiki Kazuya nodded slightly and called Shinobu Kocho in.

Shinobu Kocho pushed the door open, bowed politely and said, "My lord, I have contacted Miss Tamayo and brought Xiaowu's blood to her. Tamayo has long agreed to work with me to develop a drug that can turn ghosts into humans. She said that with this blood, it should be possible in theory."

After the battle against Douma and Hantengu, the first thing Shinobu Kocho, who loved medicine, did was to collect Konoha's blood.

Ghost blood that can overcome sunlight must be very useful, that's what she thought at the time.

Unexpectedly, after communicating with Tamayo, Tamayo said that the closer the blood is to Muzan's, the higher the research value.

If Xiao Wu is Muzan now, wouldn’t that be perfect?

"As long as it's feasible in theory." Yaoya smiled slightly.

If his guess was correct, then that Xiao Wu, maybe...

He imagined what Muzan looked like in his mind.

What will she do now?

——Desperate.

----------------------------------------------

In the Infinite City, Wucan's laughter sounded wild and abrupt, like the branches of a skeleton growing wildly.

"Oh, premise? Hahahaha..."

She bent over, holding her stomach and laughing.

Shiya held the sword in his hand and breathed heavily, "What's so funny about you?!"

Wu Can laughed for a while and finally stopped, gradually calming down.

"I'm not that scumbag that is Muzan."

After calming down, Wuzan said calmly, as if enduring something, "I am Xiaowu. My name is also Xiaowu (莁)."

"What do you mean?" Yiyong immediately stepped forward and asked.

Tanjiro's eyebrows were also twisted into a ball: "Not Muzan? Then who are you? Are you a stand-in?"

——That was all he could think of.

If that's the case, then it makes sense. Why did she keep letting him go? Why didn't she do anything even though she had seen the lord up close...

If she was really Muzan, the lord would have died long ago.

"Yes," Wuzan's eyes were filled with loneliness, "Then who am I?"

She asked instead of answering, causing the others to be silent for a while.

For hundreds of years, Muzan Kibutsuji has been wanting to destroy the Ubuyashiki clan, so he specially formed the Twelve Kizuki to compete with the Nine Pillars.

But now that she was close to them, she never took action even when she had the chance.

In addition, she has even fulfilled her long-cherished wish of overcoming the sunlight. Now there is nothing that can threaten her. What on earth does she have to worry about?

in case……

The smart ones among them had an incredible guess in their hearts -

Xiao Wu...could it be that he is really in cahoots with them?

As the leader of the pillars, Gyoumei Shimae put down his weapon, clasped his hands together and said to Muzan: "Let's not beat around the bush. Excuse me, what is going on here?"

"Yes, stop playing tricks and please tell me the truth!" Mitsuri could no longer hold back and asked directly.

——If we keep guessing, everyone will go crazy!

Even though she was slow-witted, she had already noticed that something was wrong with Xiao Wu.

Because Xiao Wu's actions are so contradictory.

Even though the ironclad facts were right in front of her, she had come into contact with Xiao Wu and she was not completely ignorant of him.

She heard a voice in her heart telling her -

"Xiao Wu is not Wuzhan."

"Is this really happening? What impact will this have on the entire situation? Do we have enough strength to fight against the real Muzan?" Xiyue couldn't help but mutter to herself.

She thought it was all crazy.

It was so crazy that it was far beyond her understanding.

Shimizu's expression was the craziest among the ten of them: "Really? You're not?! Then where is the real Muzan? Tell me now! If you don't, I'll chop you up again!!"

Veins bulged on his muscular arms, and he wished he could rush to Muzan right away and interrogate her thoroughly.

If she deceives his feelings again, he will definitely not be able to bear it and go crazy!

So the answer is…

What is the answer?!

Xiao Banei looked at his friend without saying a word.

He wanted to say something like "Demons can't be trusted", but he had already repeated this to Muzan several times, and he felt it would be redundant to say it again.

Zenitsu stared blankly at Muzan in front of him, then looked at Tanjiro, and said fearfully: "Tanjiro, she is not Muzan, right? If it is Muzan, it would be too scary, if it is not Muzan, it would be great. Hey, what do you think..."

“…” Tanjiro’s heart was like a tangled hemp rope, difficult to untie.

He took a few deep breaths and said, "Zenitsu, the only thing I can be sure of is...

"At least, she didn't kill my relatives, and she certainly didn't eat anyone."

——This seems to be enough.

Knowing how sensitive Tanjiro's nose is, Giyuu, who was standing nearby, looked deeply at Muzan, tracing her outline, with mixed feelings in his heart.

What on earth had she been through?

After thinking for a long time, Yiyong said: "Xiao Wu..."

In the end, he chose this title.

It was just a call, without any other extra words, but it was full of thousands of words.

All he wanted to say was contained in these few words.

Wuzan lowered his gaze and closed his eyes.

When she opened her eyes again, she had changed them back to how they looked when she was disguised as a human.

She smiled: "Okay, I'll tell you the truth."

"Ah, it's a friendly voice." Zenitsu looked at his friend.

Tanjiro hummed, and Muzan continued: "As some of you think, I... am indeed not Muzan."

——She had said this before.

Only this time, she was more serious and sincere than before.

Slowly, she told the secret she had kept hidden for so many years.

She revealed that she had deceived everyone over and over again, deceived all the demons created by Muzan, and even she herself was deceived.

She almost thought that she was truly hopeless.

But she knew that she was not.

Of course she wasn't, how could she be?

Because the real Muzan is there...

There he is.

Her name is not a scary name like "Kibutsuji Muzan", her name is Xiao Mu.

She is Xiao Wu, the one and only Xiao Wu in this world, completely different from the Xiao Wu in the book.

"Please help me."

Xiao Wu looked at them, his eyes unflinching and unevasive, like a handful of clear lake water on the barren land.

"Kill the real Muzan together and help me...return to my real home."

--------------------------------------------------

Everything is revealed.

They would never have imagined that such a bizarre thing would happen.

Read novels? Travel through time?

If Ubuyashiki Yoshiya had not confirmed this, they would have thought it was a cunning trick by Muzan Kibutsuji.

But then again, they really couldn't think of any reason for Xiao Wu to lie to them, because Xiao Wu knew all their secrets, down to the last detail.
