At that moment, Lin Ye's voice finally rang in her ears.
"Don't you like toying with other people? Well then, try being toyed with."
Spider-like innate magic! Web manipulation!
Chapter Thirty-Eight: Rui and Giyu Tomioka
"Tanjiro, haven't we had it a little too easy on our journey?"
"I'm following closely behind Tanjiro," Zenitsu Agatsuma asked with some concern. It's not that Zenitsu is overthinking things; they haven't seen a single demon along the way, something no one would believe if they told them.
Tanjiro noticed this as well, but he calmly said, "I did smell some demonic scent, but it's gradually fading away. So, there must have been a demon here before, but I don't know where it went."
"What! Could it be that these ghosts knew we were coming and gathered together beforehand?! How are you two supposed to protect me?! Waaah!"
Zenitsu Agatsuma grew increasingly worried, as if he were about to die. However, despite his cries of fear, he showed no intention of running away, much like the Straw Hat Pirates, who outwardly proclaimed how terrifying the Four Emperors were, but in actual combat, each one was more ruthless than the last.
Tanjiro already knew about Zenitsu's situation, but he didn't say much and simply continued to move towards their goal with the two of them.
however……
"Have you... seen my family?"
At that moment, a detached voice suddenly rang out, and then a white figure appeared in front of Tanjiro and the other two without anyone noticing.
This figure was none other than Rui, who had just reunited with the Lower Moons and was preparing to break out of the encirclement again. However, he had only just begun to retreat when he discovered that all his family members had disappeared, which made Rui, who valued his family very much, extremely angry.
So he rushed over to look for his family, but instead of his family, he found three uninvited guests!
"This smell! It's an oni!" Tanjiro immediately sensed something was wrong. He drew his Nichirin Blade and assumed a defensive stance, while Zenitsu Agatsuma stood ready beside him.
However, Lei didn't care about the three people's performance at all. He simply asked again in that indifferent tone.
"Where are my family members? Where have you taken them?"
Unfortunately, none of the trio answered Lei's question. Seeing this, Lei finally lowered his head and sighed before speaking.
"Forget it, it seems I won't get any results from asking you."
Having thought of this, Lei gave up asking questions, and transparent spider silk appeared directly at his fingertips!
"This power!" Tanjiro immediately sensed something was wrong, but beside him, the hot-tempered Inosuke had already reached his limit! In an instant, he drew his twin swords and charged towards Rui!
"Such a heavy aura! Inosuke! Watch out!"
Tanjiro immediately tried to warn him, but unfortunately, his warning came too late; Rui had already taken action!
"I'm in a hurry today, so... I won't be able to play with you guys."
The moment the tired voice fell, a thin spider web blocked his way!
Blood Demon Art: Engraved Line Prison!!!
Beast Breathing - First Fang Piercing Shot!
when! !
The Nichirin Blade clashed with the spider silk, producing a metallic clanging sound! Although Inosuke blocked Rui's attack with his Nichirin Blade, the seemingly all-pervasive spider silk shot out from all directions!
"Water Breathing! Second Form! Waterwheel!"
The blue water spray, like a wheel, was directly blocked by the spider silk thanks to the Water Breathing technique! At that moment, Tanjiro stood beside Inosuke and said to him...
"Watch out for Inosuke, that devil! He's strong!"
"Ah!!!" Inosuke was furious. He had almost been instantly killed? How could someone with such a strong personality like him accept this!
Beast Breathing! Third Form! Fangs Tear!!!
Seeing Inosuke make his move, Tanjiro immediately reacted as well!
Breathing of Water! Fourth Form! Strike Tide!
Tanjiro and Inosuke attacked simultaneously from the left and right. Seeing their attacks, Rui raised his hands and said that he was in a hurry!
Blood Demon Art: Killing Eyes!
In an instant, spider silk rose out of thin air around Tanjiro and the others, and the three figures, including Zenitsu Agatsuma who had not yet drawn his sword, were instantly surrounded!
The three figures were powerless to resist and could only watch helplessly as the spider silk drew ever closer to them!
But at this critical moment, a blue light descended from the sky!
"Water Breathing - Sixth Form! Twisting Whirlpool!"
Boom! Blue waves covered all the spider silk, and this terrifying attack was instantly destroyed! Immediately afterwards, a male and a female figure appeared in front of Tanjiro at the same time.
Upon seeing the figure before him, Tanjiro instantly recognized its identity.
"Brother Yiyong!"
Chapter Thirty-Nine: A family should be complete.
“You did a great job holding out until we arrived,” Giyu said, looking at Tanjiro behind him.
Seeing Giyu appear, Tanjiro finally breathed a sigh of relief. It has to be said that Rui was the strongest enemy he had ever encountered, and he had virtually no ability to fight back against such an opponent.
The moment they clashed, he understood that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, his fate today would be sealed: death.
Beside Giyu Tomioka, Shinobu Kocho silently watched the box on Tanjiro's back.
As the Insect Pillar, she could naturally sense the faint demonic aura emanating from the box.
At this moment, seeing Giyu Tomioka and Shinobu Kocho appear before him, Rui was indeed filled with anger.
"One after another! Are you going to keep haunting us like this?" At this moment, Lei remembered the information he had heard earlier, and his gaze towards the two people in front of him changed instantly!
"You two must be the Pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps! You actually sent two of you, you really think highly of me."
Upon hearing this, the usually taciturn Giyu Tomioka simply asked, "The Dragon Balls are with you, aren't they?"
As he spoke, Giyu Tomioka took out a bright yellow bead from his pocket, and on this bead were two stars!
"Two-star Dragon Ball!"
Exhausted, his eyes lit up, and he took out his Seven-Star Dragon Ball. And so, on this Spider Mountain, the two Dragon Balls met!
"It really is the Dragon Ball!" Giyu Tomioka looked at the seven-star Dragon Ball in front of him with excitement. Even he couldn't help but lose his composure at this moment!
“Sabito, Makomo, sister…” For a moment, Giyu Tomioka’s hand holding the Nichirin Blade trembled uncontrollably.
Even Shinobu Kocho was no exception; at this moment, her eyes, which had previously seemed to have lost their expression, were now filled with excitement.
"elder sister……"
Shinobu Kocho also thought of her older sister, Kanae Kocho, a source of eternal pain in her heart. And now, this opportunity was right in front of her.
Similarly, looking at the two pillars in front of him, Lei also became excited. He didn't think he could defeat both of them, but he wasn't fighting alone now!
"Haha! Unexpectedly, we've got an extra bonus! Two Pillar heads, plus a Dragon Ball! Lord Muzan will surely reward us handsomely!"
brush!brush!brush!brush!
Four figures appeared simultaneously! The waning moon of May! Five figures had gathered here!
Five lower moons vs. two pillars!
This battle appears to be a closely contested one. Looking at the five figures before them, even Giyu and Shinobu couldn't guarantee victory, but they absolutely could not retreat! Because this was their responsibility as members of the Demon Slayer Corps!
At this moment, the battle was about to break out. But at that very instant, an untimely voice suddenly rang out.
"A group fight? Well, I guess I've come at just the right time."
"who!"
The next second, both of the five ghosts looked in the direction of the sound!
Under the cool moonlight, a figure sat on a treetop, looking down at them, while behind him stood several white figures like bodyguards.
"Father, Mother, Brother, Sister..." Lei looked at each figure expressionlessly. Weren't these people his "family"?
However, at this moment, his family members all appeared to be under control. With his ghostly eyesight, Lei could clearly see that each of them had fine spider silk on their bodies, and the source of the spider silk was this strange man!
"Silk manipulation! How is this possible!" Lei was stunned. This was his unique Blood Demon Technique, which only he and his family could master! Why did this man know it too!
Is he a human or a ghost?!
However, Lei was only shocked for a moment before recovering. Looking at his family, Lei coldly said to Lin Ye...
"You think you can threaten me with my family? You've got your hopes up."
Lei said coldly, "Although I love my family very much, there are limits. You think you can use them to threaten me? You must be dreaming."
Hearing their complaints about being tired, Lin Ye silently shook his head. Although he could barely control the puppets using spider silk magic, he didn't find pleasure in toying with other people's corpses like they did. For Lin Ye, there was only one reason he brought these ghosts here:
"Don't portray me like a villain. I have no intention of doing anything despicable like coercion or extortion. I brought them here simply because... I felt that since we're family, it's better to be together."
Neat and tidy!!!
Hearing Lin Ye's words, a bloodshot light flashed in Lei's eyes! So neat and orderly! Was this man planning to wipe out Spider Mountain in one fell swoop?
Giyu and Shinobu didn't react much to the conversation between Rui and Lin Ye, but the other Twelve Demon Moons couldn't hold back! Anyway, this guy doesn't seem to be one of them, so if he's not one of them, then he must be their enemy, right?
Thinking of this, Lower Moon Two Rokuro leaped up and shouted loudly.
"Why waste words with them! Kill them all! Then take their heads and the Dragon Balls back to Lord Muzan! Then we'll be the Five Upper Moons!"
"The Five Upper Moons?" Hearing these ghosts' words, Lin Ye shook his head helplessly before saying, "Today, even if the Five Upper Moons are really here, they will still obediently leave the Dragon Balls behind!"
Breath of the Sun! Form Nine! The Setting Sun Turns Around!
Chapter Forty: Instant Kill! The Lower Moon!
boom!
The scorching flames filled the sky, illuminating the entire night. To people in the distance, the bright firelight made it appear as if the entire Spider Mountain was engulfed in flames.
Faced with such a sword strike, Lower Moon Satsuki was completely stunned!
What! What kind of attack is this?! A sword like that! Even Lord Muzan couldn't withstand it!
“Hurry… run!!”
Lower Moon Two realized what was happening and immediately turned around and ran in another direction!
He won't kill anyone, and he doesn't want the Dragon Balls anymore. Right now... he just wants to live!
Unfortunately... how could he possibly escape Lin Ye's sword!
boom!
The towering flames engulfed everything, including May's body. At that moment, Shinobu and the others, who were not far away, could only hear the crackling and burning sounds, as well as desperate cries!
"No!! No!! Let me go! Let me go!"
"I'm willing to tell you where Muzan and the others are! I'm still useful to you! Let me go!"
"How...how can I collapse here!"
"Die! Die!"
Despair and cries filled the air; the scene could only be described as utterly tragic, as if it had transformed into hell. Yet, Lin Ye remained remarkably calm in the face of such a spectacle.
"Hell and demons, isn't that a perfect match?"
In the night sky, Lin Ye's Zanpakuto had vanished. Don't ask why Lin Ye's sword, though not a Nichirin Blade, could kill demons. Zanpakuto can even kill souls; killing these demons who haven't yet transcended the physical realm is a piece of cake, isn't it?
The moment the flames disappeared, behind Lin Ye, all the ghosts, including the spider family, turned to ashes and vanished completely.
A family should always be together, and Lin Ye meant what he said.
"Letting you see each other one last time before you die will fulfill one of your wishes."
As Lin Ye spoke, he picked up a bright yellow Dragon Ball from the ashes on the ground. This was a Dragon Ball; it wouldn't be destroyed even if thrown into the sun, let alone the Breath of the Sun.
As for the fact that the Lei family are all pitiful people, why not let them fulfill their wishes? Lin Ye only has one attitude towards this situation, which is... He feels deeply sorry for their experiences, but their actions will only make him speed up the pace of his sword strikes.
