After completing all this, Tamayo proactively sought out Ubuyashiki.
After all, when it ca to combat matters, she ultimately needed to rely on the demon slayers.
Establishing dialogue with Ubuyashiki was not difficult for Tamayo.
The Demon Slayer Corps was not a singular organization.
Apart from the demon slayers responsible for fighting demons on the front lines, behind them existed a complete dical system, logistics system, and nurous dicinal suppliers.
Beyond this, the Demon Slayer Corps even possessed large numbers of "civilian strongholds" outside their formal structure—the "Wisteria Houses."
These families, all bearing wisteria as their family crest, did not belong to the Demon Slayer Corps.
They were all people whose lives had once been saved by the Demon Slayer Corps, who provided assistance to demon slayers without compensation to repay their gratitude.
Each of the above was a breakthrough point.
As long as she could find one organization or stronghold confird to have connections with the Demon Slayer Corps, then convey the information that she possessed intelligence about powerful demons and wished to dialogue with Ubuyashiki.
After so ti, the Demon Slayer Corps would proactively send people to make contact.
Tamayo was certain that as long as she reached this level, regardless of whether it was true or false, the Demon Slayer Corps would definitely send soone to attempt contact with her.
After all, if it was false, it would rely be a wasted trip with no losses.
But if it was true, that would be quite a substantial gain for the Demon Slayer Corps!
Since several decades ago, the overall strength of the demon side had grown increasingly powerful, even giving birth to the "Twelve Kizuki" that had never been heard of in the past several hundred years.
The strength of the demons ranked among them was so formidable that ordinary demon slayers could not match them.
Among those ranked higher—the so-called Upper Rank demons—so could even easily kill Hashira-level swordsn of the Demon Slayer Corps with their own power!
From the perspective of the current Demon Slayer Corps, they urgently needed any intelligence related to the Twelve Kizuki.
And the developnt of events indeed proceeded as Tamayo predicted.
Not long after she released the information, the Demon Slayer Corps proactively sent soone to contact her.
The one who ca was a demon slayer who looked remarkably like a yellow owl, said to be the current Fla Hashira of the Demon Slayer Corps.
Yellow owl...
Instantly recalling the owl swordsman she had encountered with Tsugikuni Mitsuba more than eighty years ago, even Tamayo couldn't help but mutter a complaint internally—
Could it be that people of your clan share the sa face and sa hairstyle generation after generation?
Although after Tamayo revealed her identity as "a demon who has escaped Muzan's control," this current Fla Hashira was quite shocked.
Ultimately, however, he followed Ubuyashiki's request and brought her to the location designated for eting with Ubuyashiki.
Thus, Tamayo smoothly connected with Ubuyashiki.
After this, Tamayo elaborated to this first-ti Demon Slayer Corps leader about her plan to kill Muzan, as well as the predicant she currently faced.
Relying on her understanding of the Warring States period events from more than eighty years ago, Tamayo quickly gained Ubuyashiki's trust.
Of course, perhaps there was also the influence of hints from the gods above in the dark...
In any case, after rely one eting, Ubuyashiki completely believed in Tamayo's determination and expressed willingness to cooperate with her actions.
And Tamayo's "Upper Rank Demon Subjugation" plan was actually quite simple overall.
It was to first find a way to lure an Upper Rank demon out, then find a way to make it mistakenly consu the poison she developed.
If it died on the spot from the poison, then directly collect the blood and leave.
If it didn't die on the spot from the poison, that demon would certainly enter a weakened state, then have the demon slayers lying in ambush all around attack together—strike while it's sick!
As for the subjugation target selected by Tamayo, naturally it was the one currently ranked first among the Twelve Kizuki—Upper Rank One:
Tsugikuni Mitsuba.
Of course, current demon slayers were extrely lacking in intelligence about Upper Rank demons, and they were unaware that Tsugikuni Mitsuba was Upper Rank One of the Twelve Kizuki.
It was Tamayo who said this.
But honestly, Tamayo didn't actually have absolute evidence to prove that Tsugikuni Mitsuba was definitely Upper Rank One.
After all, she herself had been hiding and concealing her whereabouts these years, how could she possibly know intelligence about these mysterious Upper Rank demons...
It was her own feeling that it must be so.
But this feeling was not without basis; it was reasonable speculation Tamayo made based on her past understanding of Tsugikuni Mitsuba.
Although it had been nearly a hundred years since she had heard any intelligence about Tsugikuni Mitsuba.
Tamayo was certain that Tsugikuni Mitsuba had definitely not died.
Not only had she not died, she must now be far more powerful than the her in Tamayo's mories!
More than eighty years ago, Tsugikuni Mitsuba could already catch a marked swordsman's full-power strike with her bare hands, with only slight skin breakage on her palm!
More than eighty years later, to what terrifying extent would her strength have grown?
Coupled with Muzan's fondness and indulgence toward her, and her terrifying Blood Demon Art...
Even without being able to confirm with her own eyes, Tamayo could be almost one hundred percent certain that the current Tsugikuni Mitsuba must be Upper Rank One of the Twelve Kizuki!
Then the question arose: since Tamayo was already clear about Tsugikuni Mitsuba's power, why did she still select her as the subjugation target?
The answer was, Tamayo actually had no choice.
First, apart from Tsugikuni Mitsuba and her elder brother, Tamayo didn't know who the other Upper Rank demons in the Twelve Kizuki were.
And the Demon Slayer Corps was also unclear about this.
Second, these Upper Rank demons all hid themselves extrely deeply; normally demon slayers couldn't even catch their tails.
Apart from waiting for them to expose themselves at so unknown ti, wanting to actively find them was no different from fishing for a needle in the ocean.
Therefore, Tamayo's only thod was to "deceive."
Think of a way, create a pretense that demons would definitely be interested in, to lure these deeply hidden Upper Rank demons out.
Then, what kind of pretense would definitely make demons interested?
The answer was obvious—
Blue Spider Lily!
Just as intelligence about the Twelve Kizuki was to the Demon Slayer Corps.
This mysterious flower that Muzan had tirelessly sought for nearly six hundred years was similarly intelligence that demons would absolutely be interested in!
Given Muzan's craving for the Blue Spider Lily, even if he knew in his heart that such intelligence was likely false, he would definitely send his demons to investigate.
It was still that saying: better safe than sorry.
Tamayo understood Muzan too well; he would not let pass any intelligence related to the Blue Spider Lily.
Then the question arose again: for such intelligence of uncertain authenticity, which of his demons would Muzan send to investigate?
