It was already evening.

On the platform of the Saiyashiki Mansion.

The candlelight shook, illuminating the dim house.

The terrace is open to the courtyard, and you can clearly see the pillars practicing swordsmanship in the courtyard.

Nao Nao and Jue Kyotoichi sat face to face, with a table standing in front of them.

At the same time, Ji Guoyuanyi also had some doubts on his face.

"What's wrong?" Ji Guoyuan Ichin turned slightly, paying attention to the water Wuyuebai in the courtyard, but was actually asking Shang Quanna: "Why did you suddenly call me over?"

Shang Quannai also squinted his eyes and looked at Shui Wuyuebai, who was dancing in the courtyard. He reached out and picked up the teacup beside him and sucked it gently:

"I'll go out today... guess who I've met." His tone suddenly became frivolous, and he smiled and looked at Ji Guoyuanyi.

After Guoyuan was choking for a while, he did not answer Shang Quanna's question.

This is in line with his personality.

Seeing this, Shang Quanna didn't care much. He put down the teacup in his hand, thought about the language in his heart, and then said:

"A man whose surname is the successor country, just like you."

"Wedding with snake-patterned Yuri and a high ponytail, it looks very similar to you, but not exactly the same."

"It seems that he is the patriarch who succeeds the country clan, he looks very grand."

"I think you might be interested..." Shang Quanna said, turning his head to look at Ji Guoyuanyi.

As soon as Guoyuan heard this, his eyes lit up. He turned his head and looked at Shang Quannai, then slowly lowered his eyes.

He knew almost instantly who Shang Quanna was talking about.

He looks very similar to himself and is now the patriarch of the country, so there is only one candidate.

——His brother, Guoyansheng.

I wasn't very excited, but I felt a little bit more emotional than usual when I was expressionless.

When he was following the country, in order not to expose the "ominous twins", Minichi's father falsely claimed that he had only one child born in the country.

Therefore, the outside world never knew the existence of the direct lineage of "Jiguoyuanyi".

When Yuanyi lived with Uta outside, he also carefully protected the secrets of the family for his father.

However, now I am in the Demon Slayer Team, these are things that no one cares about.

Brother...have you become the patriarch...

Ji Guoyansheng's joyful look couldn't help but appear in his mind.

"That's how I called me over..."

As soon as Guoyuan lowered his eyes, his pupils reflected his fluctuating emotions, the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up slightly:

“I do know.”

"He... is my brother, a very powerful person."

"Oh~ brother?" Shang Quanna pretended not to know anything, and tilted her head in confusion.

"Yes, he is my twin brother, so he looks similar." Ji Guoyuan's tone was obviously more vigorous than usual.

"You can be called very powerful, then your brother must be very strong."

Shang Quanna looked up at the wind chime under the eaves and said carelessly.

"My brother, he is impeccable in his work and in his character." Ji Guoyuanichi's tone was faintly proud.

"If he becomes the patriarch, his family will definitely flourish."

Shang Quanna listened to the words of Jue Guoichi, and he imagined in his heart that Iwakatsu would listen to Yuanichi's words here.

Maybe he thinks that Yuanyi is humiliating him.

Ji Guoyuan raised his head and felt a little happy. He hadn't heard about his brother in nearly ten years:

"Brother...how are you doing now?"

Shang Quanna looked at the corner of Ji Guoyuan's curled mouth, and he continued to turn his head, looked into the courtyard, and said casually:

"I didn't contact and communicate with him, I just waited and watched from a distance."

"I saw him, someone escorted him up and off the carriage, and there was a very large mansion, and the family's strength looked very powerful."

As he said that, Shang Quan Nai deliberately suppressed the next few words:

"Your brother seems to have already married and had children. When I saw him, his wife was holding and holding two children at the door."

"A very happy family of four."

"That's it..." As Guoyuan listened carefully to Shang Quanna's words, he looked up at the dim sky outside the courtyard, and couldn't help but feel joy for his brother.

It seems that the choices I made were correct, my elder brother.

You are now blessed.

As Guoyuanyi looked at the courtyard with a smile, the appearance of Uta and his children appeared in his mind.

I also gained my own happiness.

It would be even better if... there was no ghost.

The existence of the evil ghost almost destroyed his own hard-won happiness.

It also makes the originally stable life less peaceful.

Thinking of this, Ji Guoyuan closed his eyes and began to pray for his brother in his heart.

I hope my brother won’t encounter such a cannibal evil spirit, and he will never need to participate in such a cruel struggle.

"call……"

"Thank you." As soon as Ji Guoyuan opened his eyes, he turned his head and looked at Shang Quannai, his tone with extremely sincere and solemn feelings.

"It's okay, I just passed by Shunju saw it." Shang Quanna looked at Ji Guoyuanichi, and he waved his hand slightly. His purpose had been achieved.

"That's it, what I want to say has been finished, let's go first."

He stood up, turned around and opened the wooden door, preparing to go to Shiyashiki Fushi's room.

Click.

The reason he did this was simple.

In the original work, Ji Guoyuan, who became an adult, once again met Ji Guoyan Sheng.

At that time, Iwasaki Zhixiaoyuan was not immersed in the war.

Instead, he joined the team to kill evil ghosts and save others and was shocked.

The goal that I have always struggled for and worked hard for is so ridiculous in my younger brother's eyes.

Once again, I felt the crushed Yan Sheng, so he chose to follow his younger brother's footsteps, decisively abandon his wife and children, abandon his family that he had developed, and his wife who was waiting at home, and resolutely joined the ghost killing team.

He did not inform Ji Guoyuanyi about this matter.

At that time, Ji Guoyuanyi did not ask too much. He just thought it was his brother's trust in him, so he took Ji Guoyansheng, who wanted to join the Demon Slayer Team, to meet his lord.

The wife and children abandoned by Guoyansheng are the last bloodline that continues to continue the country.

However, after the country lost its patriarch, it began to decay, without the glory of the past, and could not afford Iwakatsu's wife shelter.

In order not to be hunted by the enemy, they could only change their surname to "Shituo" and live in the mountains and fields to be Tchaifu.

Shang Quanna's purpose is to turn the entire Shiguoren into a ghost killing force like the "Battle Village" when Jiguoren meets Iwakatsu.

And, save the three abandoned mother and son in the original work.

As for the reason...

Please, everyone with the surname Jiguo is very brave.

Whether it is the human body that crushes the miserable Jiguoyuanyi.

It was his brother Ji Guoyansheng who ranked second but refused to admit defeat.

Neither of the two people's breathing methods can be learned or passed on by others.

There are also descendants of later generations who succeeded Guoyansheng. When they first met evil ghosts, they used hammers and wooden stakes to destroy ghosts. When they held a knife for two months, they became pillars.

These people can be described in two words.

"genius".

And they are almost all geniuses who work extremely hard.

And these geniuses are all from the same lineage, which won’t make people think of anything.

Therefore, the successor country must be held in your hand.

When Ji Guoyuan spoke up, he would always be more convincing than an outsider who was an outsider to Yan Sheng.

This matter should not be too hasty.

Nao Nao stood in the corridor of the room and stretched. He turned around and glanced at Ji Guoyuanichi, who was secretly happy.
