I don't know when, but I was injected with the sap of Wisteria!
Although the amount was small, it was enough to deprive him of the ability to move freely.
"Wow, the medical equipment these days is so advanced, it's completely different from what I had back then."
With a sigh, a look of melancholy crossed the face of the real person.
"You are too modest, sir. It's just that times have changed."
Shinri Keito had been silent until now, suddenly spoke up, his face showing a hint of flattery.
In terms of status, position, and strength, the ancestor before him far surpassed him.
Even after he himself became a ghost, he still needed Shinri Masato's help in many ways.
"You are also very good. You have made great contributions to developing the Shinri Family to its current level."
"Just lucky."
With a slight bow, Huiren's face showed no trace of pride.
"Alright, now that Tamayo has been captured, your mission is complete."
He patted Huiren on the shoulder and smiled.
"Go and get ready, today you can officially become one of us."
"Yes."
Her breathing quickened, and a hint of joy appeared on Huiren's face.
He had waited for this day for far too long, and thankfully it could finally come true today.
"Then I'll be going now."
"Yes, remember to pick out some of the useless ones. The evolved Shinri Family doesn't need waste."
"Clear."
He nodded, his face contorted with rage, his tone smug.
"I will select a group of breeding pigs to become tools for producing offspring and providing us with nutrients."
After saying this, Huiren left the dungeon.
Upon hearing Masato and Megumi's plan, Tamayo's face was filled with astonishment.
She knew that for ghosts, eating humans with blood ties provided more nourishment.
I've also heard of some people who, upon becoming ghosts, first turn on their own family members.
But she never imagined that someone would degrade her own people to mere breeding boars who only knew how to reproduce.
Shinri Keito may look like a human, but his heart is more evil than most demons.
"Don't be surprised."
Glancing at Tamayo, Masato seemed to have anticipated her reaction.
"This is only a small part of the plan; there's a lot more you don't know."
Why don't you tell me about it?
He shook his head and grinned.
Do you take me for a fool?
"Then I'll ask another question."
Realizing that the real person in front of her was not easy to deal with, Tamayo had no choice but to divert the other party's attention while trying her best to break down the toxins in her body.
"Where did you obtain the technology to inject Wisteria sap?"
Tamayo only knows of two people who use Wisteria sap as a means of attack.
Shinobu Butterfly, lacking in physical strength, primarily relies on drugs for attacks.
And the Tengen Uzui family, who were born ninjas and used Wisteria as a support.
"I can tell you about that."
To her surprise, the real person did not hide the matter, but instead spoke about it very generously.
"After all, this is not a matter for the Shinri Family."
Upon hearing this, Tamayo sensed that something was amiss.
The source of this technology seems to be a ghost or a person who collaborated with the Shinri Family.
Despite some cooperation between the two parties, the real person did not intend to deepen the relationship further.
On the contrary, he prefers to reveal some of the cards his partners have up their sleeves.
Tamayo already had a guess about Shinri Masato's intentions.
"As everyone knows, ninjas are the group of people who love assassination and poisoning the most."
"So, how would a ninja use Wisteria poison after turning into a demon?"
As he spoke, the man clapped his hands and addressed the corner of the wall.
"Alright, it's your turn to take the stage."
"Hmph, you're too talkative."
The empty corner of the wall suddenly trembled a few times, twisting and shaking like ripples on the surface of water.
Immediately afterwards, a robust young man appeared in Tamayo's sight.
His features were strong, his expression was cold, and the light in his eyes seemed to show that he didn't care about anyone.
The white hair was bound together with a headband, tied in a circle, and securely fastened to the head.
Let me introduce you.
Walking up to the man, Masato patted him hard on the shoulder and then spoke to Tamayo.
"This is Yang Yuan from a ninja family; his ninjutsu is extremely advanced."
"He officially joined us not long ago and is now a formidable member."
Upon hearing this name, Tamayo couldn't help but frown.
She knew very little about ninjas and had never even heard of the name.
But the next thing the real person said made her eyes widen.
His full name is Yangyuan Uzui.
Chapter 546 Revisiting the Shinri Family
"Yangyuan Uzui?!"
"That's right."
With a cold laugh, Masato said to Tamayo.
"He is the Sound Hashira of the Demon Slayer Corps, Tengen Uzui's younger brother."
"Don't mention that guy to me. He's a weakling who betrayed the family tradition. I need to clean house as soon as possible."
Yang Yuan slapped the real man's arm away, stared at Tamayo, and said.
"As long as I keep an eye on her, you'll lead me to Tengen?"
"Of course, this is one of the projects we're dealing with, isn't it?"
"Then this is none of your business. Get lost."
Shinri Masato did not show anger at Yang Yuan's disdain, but simply smiled calmly.
"Then I'll leave it to you. I'll go arrange other things."
With that, the man turned and left.
"You stay put and don't get any funny ideas."
After giving Tamayo a warning, Yogen's figure slowly disappeared from the spot.
Tamayo, sitting in the corner, didn't speak, but a hint of worry flashed in her eyes.
She believed in the Scribe's abilities and understood his character.
But precisely because of this, Tamayo was even less willing to let the Scribe come to save her.
Of those who were exposed, there was Yangyuan Uzui from a ninja family.
Who knows how much power Shinri Masato and his gang have secretly amassed?
With the enemy in the dark and us in the light, Tamayo worried that the Scribe would fall into the enemy's trap.
The Scribe, who was still on his way, was naturally unaware of Tamayo's worries.
Even if he knew, he would still go to the Shinri Family without hesitation.
As night fell, he finally arrived at his destination.
"The Shinri Family!"
Looking at the mansion in the distance, his eyes were filled with a raging fire.
Tonight, he will make the Shinri Family pay a heavy price.
As they approached quickly, the Scribe soon realized something was wrong.
There wasn't a single person in the houses surrounding Shinri Family.
Thinking about it carefully, it seems that I haven't seen a single person since I entered this town.
The once bustling crowd had vanished without a trace.
This place seems to have become a dead city.
A bad feeling rose in her heart, but the Scribe continued to walk forward.
Finally, the gates of the Shinri Family mansion appeared before him.
"Did you drive it?"
He frowned slightly as he looked at the wide-open doorway.
The guards who used to protect us have all disappeared, and there is no one left to guard this place.
Are they all dead?
After standing at the door for a moment and thinking, Scribe finally went inside.
Following the path he had taken during his previous visit, he walked deeper into the Shinri Family's residence.
It stopped after turning a corner.
"Come out."
With a cold gaze fixed on a room ahead, Scribe gave a chilling smile.
"Your aura is so strong it's practically bursting through the ceiling. Do you think I can't detect it?"
"As expected of you, Mister Scribe."
Realizing they had been discovered, the people in the room stopped hiding and walked out openly.
"It's you?"
Looking at the robust man in front of her, Scribe remembered that the man was one of the guards when she last visited the Shinri Family.
It seems to be called, Gatekeeper Number Five?
When he suddenly appeared in the empty Shinri Family, the Scribe naturally did not think that the other party was a normal person.
"Don't be nervous, Mister Scribe."
Noticing the Scribe's wary gaze, Gatekeeper Number Five raised his hands and spread them out, indicating that he meant no harm.
"If you want to know what happened to the Shinri Family, I can tell you."
As he spoke, he walked toward the Scribe.
