Moreover, with the assistance of artificial intelligence (AI) and machines, they only need to use their brains and don't need to do anything themselves.
As for the concern about harming the fetus, that's utter nonsense. Putting aside Tamayo, Kanae was a proper Pillar-level swordsman before she became a demon.
With Xia Yan helping her replenish her nutrition, her combat power, while not quite on par with Kokushibo, is now at least enough to easily tear apart a half-tengu.
Chapter 372 What I'm about to tell you, please don't be afraid.
After hearing Aoi's point of view, both Tamayo and Kanae fell silent.
The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat heavy.
"...What's wrong? Don't Tamayo and Kanae think the same way...?"
Kui Zhi asked with some confusion, her big, watery eyes full of bewilderment.
Although her attitude was not forceful, and could even be described as gently seeking opinions, Tamayo and Kanae still dared not meet her gaze.
From the perspective of a mother and a wife, there is no doubt that Aoi's concerns are valid.
Both of them had this thought.
However, unlike Aoi, who was just an ordinary woman with no ambitions before, she is different now.
Killing Muzan has been Tamayo's obsession for hundreds of years, and it is also the lifelong goal of Kanae Kocho, the former Flower Pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps.
Without a doubt, Xia Yan was the strongest person they knew, and also the person they believed was most capable of achieving this goal!
Emotionally, they naturally support Aoi and hope that Natsuhiko can settle down.
However, rationally speaking, they also hoped that Xia Yan could kill Muzan.
This conflicting thought left the two of them unsure of what to do, and it also made them feel guilty. Therefore, they could only remain silent and avoid looking at 597 Kuizhi.
"that……"
"Alright, Aoi, stop asking them. Even if you all agree, I won't stop hunting demons."
Before Kui Zhi could continue campaigning, Xia Yan interrupted her.
After all, continuing the conversation could cause discord within the harem. Although all three of them are gentle people, it would never be good to cause them to harbor resentment.
"why?"
"Although I don't understand what the Twelve Demon Moons represent, they must be extremely powerful monsters. I know that Xia Yanjun is very strong, but even bears have their moments of weakness."
"Xia Yanjun, please don't worry us!"
Sure enough, after hearing Xia Yan's words, Kui Zhi's attention immediately shifted to him.
While Kanae and Tamayo breathed a sigh of relief, they also cast worried glances at Natsuhiko.
"It has nothing to do with ability—"
“I didn’t think it was necessary before, so I didn’t tell you. But since you’re all worried about my safety, I’ll tell you.”
"Don't be afraid of what I'm about to say."
Xia Yan lowered his voice, looking very serious, and while speaking, he raised his hand to gently wipe away the tears on Kui Zhi's face.
Xia Yan was naturally not worried that the secret of the basement, which he had built himself and which no one outside his family knew about, would be leaked.
Therefore, they can reveal their secrets without any burden.
Seeing that Xia Yan was unusually serious, Tamayo, Kanae, and Aoi also adopted a serious and ready stance.
"Actually, I am immortal."
Upon hearing this, Tamayo, Kanae, and Aoi all gasped in shock, realizing they had made a small contribution to global warming.
His expression was a mixture of surprise, worry, and a resemblance to the two policemen in The Mermaid.
"Don't you believe it?"
"Seriously, Xia Yanjun, don't joke like that. It's obviously impossible!"
Kanae raised her question directly, and Tamayo and Aoi both nodded in agreement.
This time, the three of them stood on a united front, because Xia Yan's words were simply unbelievable.
"Even ghosts exist, and humans themselves have all sorts of peculiar constitutions, so why don't you believe I am immortal?"
"Even though humans have various special physical constitutions, none of them have shown supernatural abilities like Blood Demon Arts!"
Seeing that Xia Yan was still unwilling to give up, Tamayo, who had the most research on human bodies and demons, also took the lead in arguing with reason.
The atmosphere seemed to have shifted from a family drama to an academic discussion.
This was clearly beyond Kui Zhi's knowledge, but she still stood behind her two sisters to bolster their confidence.
Three sweet-looking, gentle-tempered pregnant women stood opposite Xia Yan, glaring at him with slightly reproachful, soft eyes. They didn't seem to have any imposing aura; instead, they created a unique and beautiful scene.
"Of course there are! The Butterfly Mansion currently has a boy with the 'Demon Eater' physique. After consuming the flesh and blood of a demon, he can temporarily transform into a demon and gain the ability of Blood Demon Arts."
"This……"
Tamayo and Kanae exchanged a glance, unsure how to respond.
After all, Xia Yan hadn't lied to them, and there was no point in lying about this; they could verify it simply by going up at night.
"But! Even so, Xia Yanjun doesn't have any special abilities..."
Before Tamayo could finish speaking, a blazing flame ignited in Natsuhiko's hand.
"This is... Blood Demon Art!"
"No, it has nothing to do with Blood Demon Arts. It's just my special ability. Now you believe me, right?"
Xia Yan gently clenched his fist and extinguished the flame in his hand.
Wisps of smoke drifted out from between his fingers.
Unlike the superpowers generated by the outward release of spiritual energy in Blood Demon Arts, Xia Yan, as a human, can use the Byakugan and the Stand ability of "Anubis," but he cannot use any other fancy superpowers.
This is why he has been so determined to research becoming the perfect ultimate life form.
The flames just now were actually an additional ability brought about by Xia Yan's Lunaria physique. In addition to making him physically strong and full of vitality, it also gave him the ability to generate and control flames.
This ability is not a type of mental power, but rather a physical ability.
I don't know the underlying principle.
However, since women can spray water, it should be considered normal for men to be able to breathe fire.
If they still don't believe it, Xia Yan will have no choice but to die on the spot and then put on a show of being resurrected.
However, doing so might be too stimulating. It might not have much of an effect on the two female ghosts, Tamayo and Kanae, but it could easily cause problems for Aoi.
Fortunately, all three were understanding and reasonable Yamato Nadeshiko, and Natsuhiko was always an upright person. Although he was a bit domineering, he never deceived them.
The reputation is quite good.
Therefore, Xia Yan was not given the opportunity to perform the resurrection of the dead.
Chapter 373 There is an old Chinese saying that goes...
After realizing that their worries were completely unnecessary, the laboratory was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
After all, for a wife whose husband works in a high-risk profession, nothing is more gratifying than knowing that her husband is absolutely safe.
Of course, there are also cases where people hold the opposite view.
"By the way, I kept that kid with the Demon Eater physique here. He's in the Butterfly Mansion now. See if his physique is helpful for the research. If not, send him away."
"Once the Blue Spider Lily potion is developed, we can live happily ever after."
Upon hearing Xia Yan's words, Kanae and Aoi were both lost in their fantasies about the future that Xia Yan had woven.
However, a strange look flashed across Tamayo's face.
It wasn't a look of calculation or scheming.
It's not a feeling of sadness, but rather a low mood.
Although it only appeared for a moment before being withdrawn, for Xia Yan, even without actively activating his Byakugan and Transparent World, the powerful perception brought by his passive ability was enough to take in this fleeting change.
"What's wrong, Tamayo?"
"N-nothing, I was just thinking about a new potion formula."
Tamayo's lips curled up slightly, her pale purple eyes narrowed into two arcs, revealing a gentle smile similar to her usual one.
However, after Xia Yan's reminder, even Kanae and Aoi noticed that there was a forced smile in her smile.
"Heh↗, looks like you're up to no good again. Let me see what's going on!"
Xia Yan put on a frivolous expression, cornered Tamayo against the wall, placed one hand on her ear, posed in a "wall slam" position, and gently lifted Tamayo's chin with the other hand, forcing her to look at him.
This scene involuntarily reminded her of the first time Xia Yan brought her home.
At that time, the house upstairs could not be called a home; it was just a bare house with nothing but shelter from the wind and rain.
It was in this manner that Xia Yan cornered Zhu Shi against the wall, and his domineering attitude left a very deep impression on her.
That's why Tamayo willingly stayed here, and was eventually taken advantage of by Natsuhiko little by little, to the point that she even has a child now.
However, Xia Yan's head-shaking and swaying posture at this moment made Zhu Shi show a look of both laughter and tears, and the gloom in her heart was dispelled a bit.
"Alright, confess honestly, or don't blame me for taking action!"
Although he was still issuing a warning, Xia Yan's restless hands had already begun to move.
With just a gentle pinch and lift, a large patch of the sunshade cloth on Tamayo's front armor became damp.
Although the laboratory has a very good ventilation system that keeps the air fresh at all times, a faint milky aroma still lingers in the air.
Tamayo's normally pale face instantly turned bright red.
Especially her two sisters, whose teasing gazes were fixed on Tamayo, made her feel as if she were undergoing a mental torture.
Despite her attempts to use the ghost's powerful control over the body to try and control the grain unloading point.
Unfortunately, Xia Yan's technique was still superior, leaving her with no ability to resist.
If Xia Yan hadn't been holding her chin up, Tamayo would have wanted to bury her head in her breasts, which were swelling unprecedentedly due to her impending breastfeeding period.
