In a dim room, without a single drop of light, one could only vaguely make out two figures, a man and a woman, having a conversation.

Yushiro knelt on the ground and said softly, "Lord Tamayo, it's just as you expected. That family is probably from the Demon Slayer Corps."

As a caster of illusion, how could Yushiro not feel the fluctuations of his own barrier?

As early as when Rengoku Zhenjuro touched the gate, Yushiro was connected to the illusion barrier inside the house.

I saw Rengoku Shijuro holding the Nichirin Sword and covered in blood.

There was no change on Tamayo's face. She remembered the task that Teruo Aoki had given her a long time ago. This might be an opportunity, so she spoke slowly.

"Yushiro, if he has no hostility towards us, then we should maintain the status quo. When we meet them tomorrow, just treat them normally."

"Master Tamayo, you want to...ah! Okay, I understand."

Yushiro opened his eyes wide, covered his mouth, and thought of that too.

Tamayo nodded slowly, "Yes, this is an opportunity."

The two then exchanged a few more words, and finally Yushiro stood at the door and said respectfully to the people inside: "Well, good night." Lord Tamayo.

Then, a faint "bang" sound was heard in the darkness, and the door was closed.

The night, like thick ink, silently permeated the whole world. Everything was silent, except for the breeze that rustled the leaves.

The lights in every household gradually went out and the streets were empty.

The faint moonlight and roadside lights reflected the vague outlines of the houses. The whole world fell into the embrace of the night, waiting for the dawn to wake them up.

"You are really embarrassed. You even dared to provoke the pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps."

Far away from the city, under the desolate mountains, a figure slowly walked out of the darkness, and the "tapping" sound of footsteps was particularly obvious in the silent night.

Hearing the familiar voice, Peilang suddenly turned his head and body to look at the person who came.

A calm voice sounded, "I didn't know he was so difficult!"

As if thinking of something, Peilang raised his voice, "No, how do you know? You know everything! Why didn't you come to help me at the scene?!"

As he spoke further, Peilang's voice became more and more angry.

"Oh? Didn't I help you? If I hadn't helped you, you would be dead." Nightmare's voice was casual and unclear, as if he would fall asleep in the next second.

But the coldness in his tone was undisguised, "It doesn't matter if you die, but if the blood in your body is evaporated by the flame of that pillar, I will be very distressed."

Peilang snorted irritably and said through gritted teeth: "What on earth do you want to do by showing up now?"

"I have found out the location of a ghost who is out of control just like me. Bring me his blood."

The voice of Nightmare continued, "Location - Takinogawa Village, Kitatoshima County, Tokyo."

"That has become his hunting ground lately."

The blood in Peilang's body was given to him by Nightmare. He didn't know whether Nightmare had the ability to control the blood and kill him, so he could only agree to Nightmare's request.

In fact, Nightmare himself does not have the ability to control the blood in Peilang's body. He can only recover the blood by devouring Peilang.

After completing the task to Peilang, Nightmare left. He wanted to eat more people before they noticed and reacted, so as to increase his strength.

As for why he asked Peilang to go, but Nightmare himself didn't go? If he went and was destroyed by the Demon Slayer Corps, it would be a loss, as he was not yet capable of fighting against the pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps.

After all, the ghost in Gun Takinogawa Village does not hide its actions at all, which is why Nightmare knows about the ghost.

Peilang looked at the moon in the sky in confusion. Is this Takinogawa Village in Kitatoshima County, Tokyo? Where in Tokyo is this?

So, after many twists and turns and following the road signs, Peilang finally found the village in the north of Tokyo.

Fortunately, ghosts can see clearly at night, otherwise it would take some effort to find the destination.

When he arrived at Guntakinogawa Village, Peilang smelled a strong ghost aura. Based on the smell, Peilang concluded that the ghost was not very powerful.

At least, not as strong as myself.

Peilang: Doesn't this ghost try to hide his actions? The ghost energy is scattered everywhere.

Or is he a ghost without self-awareness?

At this time, a shadow enveloped the entire Guntakinogawa Village, and every corner of the village, big and small, was filled with a terrifying and weird atmosphere.

This is also the reason why Peilang knew that the ghost was here at the first time.

Because the previous battle with Purgatory Town Shoulang consumed a lot of energy, Peilang found a nearby family and ate a few people.

Now, it is still halfway to dawn.

The moonlight spread across a courtyard in the village, and one could clearly see a large number of medicinal herbs placed in the courtyard.

It seems to be the residence of a doctor in the village?

The elder sister and the younger sister slept together and fell asleep peacefully in the room, while their parents were also deep in dreamland in the next room.

The night was as dark as ink, without a trace of wind.

Suddenly, a huge, hideous evil ghost climbed into the parents' room through the window. Its sharp claws flashed coldly in the moonlight, and it opened its bloody mouth, wanting to enjoy the food in front of it.

The parents who sensed something unusual were instantly awakened, “Ah——”

A huge exclamation was heard, echoing through the sky.

Their terrified eyes were filled with helplessness. They had never seen anything like this before and were completely powerless to resist. They could only stand there with their eyes wide open.

"Ghost... ghost!"

At this time, Shinobu Kocho and Kanae Kocho were also awakened by their parents' terrified screams.

"elder sister?"

The two looked at each other, and even though their eyes were filled with fear, they still opened the door tacitly.

As children, they cannot ignore their parents. Even if the final result is that they will die together with their parents, they will never back down.

They opened their parents' door tremblingly. The scene in front of them made their adrenaline surge and their legs tremble subconsciously.

I am still able to stand now, all thanks to my willpower.

"Don't be afraid, sister. I will protect you."

Although she was very scared, she still comforted Kocho Shinobu softly, hugged Kocho Shinobu's head, and blocked Kocho Shinobu's sight.

"Mom and Dad are still alive. I want to help them!"

Shinobu Kocho pushed Kanae Kocho away and ran into her parents' room.

"Shinobu! Wait for me!" Kanae Kocho stretched out her hand, trying to catch the impulsive Shinobu Kocho.

However, at this critical moment, another ghost wearing a military coat and a military cap appeared and fought with the previous ghost.

"Blood ghost magic!" Peilang, who had just arrived, might let the ghost eat humans to replenish its strength, so he directly used blood ghost magic and rushed forward.

The collision between the two ghosts made a dull sound, and their fierce fight caused objects in the room to break and fall to the ground.

Although they didn't know what was going on, the Butterfly sisters' parents took advantage of the fight to retreat to the door.

With the cover, the parents' legs suddenly lost strength and they collapsed to the ground.
