Although he was not present, just one sentence made the atmosphere within the Demon Slayer Department grow tense and charged.
Everyone had their own tactics in mind, yet no one dared to speak them out loud.
For Su Chengyu, however, his heart was even more complicated, a multitude of questions flashed through his mind, but not one found an answer.

Had he been secretly paying attention to this life-and-death battle, wanting to probe my identity?
Or had he already noticed, merely seeking to confirm something?
But if that were all, why intervene on my behalf at this time to trouble the people of the Ancient Clan?
Could it be that he truly wanted me to join the Demon Slayer Department and serve under him?
