"Xia Lanxingde Xiang, welcome to Demon-Slaying Island, and become a glorious Demon-Slaying Warrior." The white-bearded old man sitting at the head of the table stroked his beard with satisfaction and nodded.

“I didn’t say I wanted to join; I just wanted to go back to my own home.”

Hearing what they said, Xia Xiang's heavy mood eased a bit, and she spoke the truth.

Although the way they kidnapped people was excessive, they shouldn't all be human traffickers, right? Let's try to reason with them first.

"Uh..." Elder Chang's expression froze for a moment, then he whispered among himself and the other elders.

"I'm afraid that won't work." Seeing that the situation was not good, Huai'an also came over, bowed to the elderly people, and stood next to Xia Xiang.

"You're lying!" Xia Xiang had finally calmed down, but hearing him say that now, she almost pounced on him and strangled him. "You said you would take me home!"

“I’m not lying,” Huai’an said, spreading his hands with a roguish look. “I did say I would take you back, but I didn’t say I would take you back now.”

"You!" Xia Xiang was so angry that she couldn't speak.

"Anyway, Demon-Slaying Warriors can't leave the island if they don't meet the requirements. You can choose to train here and leave the island after passing the exam. Or you can choose to slack off; Demon-Slaying Island doesn't mind having an idle person."

Huai'an smiled casually, still acting nonchalantly in front of the elders.

The elders watched Huai'an and Xia Xiang argue and learned the general outline of what had happened. Some of them wanted to cover their faces in embarrassment. It was a misfortune for their Bamo Island family to produce such a scoundrel as Huai'an.

"It's not impossible, but I need to meet my family first before considering whether I want to join." Xia Xiang's temples throbbed with anger, but she knew this wasn't the time to get angry. "Besides, I need to know why?"

Xia Xiang looked at the old men and then glared at Huai An.

"I'm just an ordinary six-year-old child, why did you resort to such drastic measures to kidnap me?!"

Elder Chang sighed inwardly, his mind a jumble of thoughts. Besides wanting to kill Huai'an, he also didn't want to let this hard-won opportunity slip away.

If the people from the Iron Dimension and the Swift Walkers arrive, all our efforts will be in vain.

"This is Demon-Slaying Island, the place where demon-slaying warriors are trained."

Xia Xiang frowned. She had lost her memory, so how could she know what Demon-Slaying Island was or what Demon-Slaying Warriors were?

A round, small old man next to Elder Chang took over the conversation and gave a brief description of the current power dynamics in the universe.

There are now twelve spacetimes in the universe, plus a Demon Realm and Demon-Slaying Island.

Demon-Slaying Island adopts gifted children across the twelve timelines, training them to become Demon-Slaying Warriors to help the twelve timelines resist the invasion of the Demon Realm.

[A Crazy Personalized Introduction – Demon Slayer Warriors: Demon Slayer Warriors are essentially special ability users whose cultivation techniques are only effective against demons. Just as ability users can inherit their parents' abilities, Demon Slayer Warriors can also inherit their own energy, thus they are divided into pure-blooded and hybrid Demon Slayer Warriors. Here, the bloodline is a personal interpretation, with energy inherited from the parents.]

"Little Xia Xiang, to put it simply, becoming a member of Demon-Slaying Island is a very honorable thing." Elder Pang looked at Xia Xiang with a smile, looking more like a human trafficker.

"Especially since you are a Light Primal Ability User with exceptional talent. Join Demon Island and contribute to the peace cause of the twelve timelines."

"Then at least it should be done through legitimate means and with the consent of the person involved." Xia Xiang couldn't understand. Seeing that they couldn't reason with her, she realized she couldn't back down even a little, so she started to refuse. "I just want to go home now."

"Since you claim to be righteous, you can't kidnap children, otherwise what's the difference between you and the demon realm you're talking about?"

"I try my best to contribute, so what do I get in return? Separated from my family at such a young age. Kidnapped by Huai'an before I've even fully recovered. Am I crazy? I'm supposed to contribute?"

Upon hearing this, the elders turned pale and all looked at Huai'an.

Xia Xiang makes sense. If she doesn't want to, they can't really take her away. It's just a pity that Huai An has wasted these past few years in the Iron Dimension.

Since that's the case, then there's only one option...

Seeing the elders' expressions, Huai'an knew things were going badly, so he dragged Xia Xiang out in front of them.

"Let go! You liar!"

After stopping, Xia Xiang forcefully shook off his hand, crossed her arms, and turned to go back to the auditorium.

She noticed the hesitation of the old men and was about to successfully persuade them.

Huai'an raised his hand to stop her in place, leaned down to look her in the eye, and said, "Bamo Island has the most powerful healer in the twelve timelines, who can treat your amnesia and internal injuries."

“I can get cured at home too.” Xia Xiang rolled her eyes and closed them, not wanting to look at him.

“Bamo Island is a place where you can only enter and never leave.” Ignoring Xia Xiang’s refusal, Huai’an put his arm around Xia Xiang’s shoulder. “They were just discussing whether to silence you or erase your memory.”

"I'm just giving you a friendly reminder. You don't know if your head is injured right now. If they erase your memory again, who knows what kind of aftereffects it might leave? Or they might just forcibly keep you here even though you've lost your memory, and you wouldn't be able to do anything about it."

"You're pretending to be a good person? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't even be here!" Although Xia Xiang didn't believe him, what he said made sense.

What if they collude with that bad guy Huai'an and simply erase her memory immediately? She doesn't know if she'll be forced to stay, and then she won't be able to go home.

Huai'an's strength is unknown, not to mention those others, and the people on duty outside the main hall are all highly skilled. What ability does a weak, amnesiac little girl like her have to resist?
