The sudden sound and the sense of oppression made the entire team nervous.

"Ms. Kanae, please take your team members and retreat first. Leave this to me!" Feng Xiaodao said to Kanae seriously.

Kanae also felt that this new demon might not be easy to deal with. If they fought, the lives of the Demon Slayer Corps would be in danger. However, as a flower pillar, how could she retreat? So she refused:

"Xiao Dao-san, you should lead the others to retreat. You just fought, and this is my first mission with you, so I'll stay!"

After hearing this, a group of Demon Slayers also refused to do it.

"What retreat? We will never retreat. Killing the evil spirits is our duty!"

"Yes, we won't leave. There are only Demon Slayers who died in battle, no cowards who run away!"

Looking at the group of people in front of him, Feng Xiaodao's face turned very ugly. He knew that if they continued like this, more people would lose their lives.

So he took a deep breath and shouted loudly: "Are you all fools? Strategic retreat is to ensure survival. Only by staying alive can we kill ghosts!"

However, his words had no effect. Everyone still stood there, unwilling to leave.

At this time, Kanae stood up, and her eyes were extremely firm as she said to everyone, "Stop arguing, I'll stay, I'm the flower pillar, you all go first, this is an order!"

After hearing this, everyone suddenly quieted down, but their faces still showed reluctance and helplessness.

"But, Lord Huazhu..." someone whispered.

"Don't you want to obey orders? Or do you not see me as a pillar at all?" Kanae's tone became stern, and her eyes swept across everyone.

Seeing this, everyone could only lower their heads and stop talking. They understood that Huazhu's status was above everything else and they had to obey her orders.

At this time, Feng Xiaodao kept looking around, secretly alert in his heart. He realized that the enemy he encountered this time might be stronger than he imagined.

"If I'm not mistaken, this may be one of the Twelve Ghost Months." He whispered.

After the words fell, everyone was stunned.

"Humph, someone actually guessed my identity. It seems that you are not stupid!~"

The Demon Slayers still only heard the sounds but did not see any ghosts.

However, Feng Xiaodao, Mao Ye and Huazhu Kanae all turned their attention to a place that seemed to be a square in the village. That was also the place with the most debris and the strongest smell of blood.

Kanae looked at Feng Xiaodao in surprise, very confused as to how Feng Xiaodao guessed it.

Seeing this, Feng Xiaodao whispered to Chanae: "Tochigi Prefecture, wisteria flowers!"

Kanae's eyes lit up instantly as if she understood something, and she tightly gripped the emerald green handle of the Nichirin sword.

"Boy, how did you guess my identity?" The hidden ghost did not launch an attack immediately, but asked with interest.

Feng Xiaodao smiled and said:

"This is Tochigi Prefecture, the production area of ​​wisteria flowers. Weak ghosts don't like places full of wisteria flowers that can poison them."

I felt something was wrong when the ghost attacked the town before. I just realized that what was wrong was that it was too clean, without any blood. The townspeople had also been saying that the person just disappeared.

The people in the village plus the missing people in the town, a ghost that has eaten so many people should not be so weak, now it seems that those people have been presented to you!"

A creepy and proud voice came from the square: "You are really smart, but it's a pity that you will die soon.

You are right. Why are we ghosts so powerful but still afraid of sunlight and wisteria poison? I came here to prove the power of ghosts and let wisteria continue to stimulate my evolution. One day, we ghosts will have no weaknesses. "

Feng Xiaodao found that this ghost was actually quite proud and had great ideals. If you really had no shortcomings, Muzan would probably absorb you first, so he asked with a smile:

"Since I'm dying, can you answer a question for me?"

"Since you can see through all the plans, just ask!"

"You must have been nearby when I killed the screaming ghost, why didn't you save it?"

"Heh, how could a powerful ghost do a sneak attack? Besides, wouldn't this just catch you all in one fell swoop?"

"What a proud ghost indeed!"

"Although you have good vision, you still can't escape death!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Xiaodao suddenly took a deep breath, swung his hands and hit Kanae's neck. Kanae fainted without any preparation, and Feng Xiaodao took advantage of the situation to hug Kanae who was about to fall to the ground.

“Hahaha, even if you kill your companions and beg for mercy, I won’t let you go!”

The Demon Slayers were stunned and staring at all this. Just as they were about to explode in anger, Feng Xiaodao handed Kanae over and said, "Take Lady Huazhu and leave quickly. This is my chance to become a pillar. Don't try to snatch it from me!"

The Demon Slayer Corps members had no time to be moved. They knew how critical the situation was and that they could not help at all. So they quickly carried Kanae on their backs and ran towards a safe area.

"You cunning boy, stay here!"

Along with it came a white crescent moon, rushing towards the Demon Slayer Corps who were moving away with a chill.

Feng Xiaodao's legs exploded instantly, he drew his sword and rushed towards the crescent moon. When the sword and the moon met, he found that the crescent moon was actually a huge curved bone blade knife.

The powerful impact forced Feng Xiaodao to keep slashing backwards, but Feng Xiaodao still took the blow.

This delay allowed the Demon Slayer Corps to move away a lot in an instant. Kanae felt relieved when she saw them going away. Although it would definitely be a lot easier if Hana-Hiragi Kanae stayed, after all, everyone who became a Pillar had at least killed a lower-level demon, but it would be hard to say if she encountered an upper-level demon.

To be honest, Feng Xiaodao was not sure about Huazhu's strength. He practiced the Lightning Breathing Technique and was extremely fast. If he couldn't beat her, how could he run away? If Kanae stayed, she would be a burden. Besides, with the character of the Demon Slayer Corps, they would rather die in battle than run away.

"Come on, let me see how strong you are!" Looking at the figure going away, Feng Xiaodao tightly grasped the Sun Wheel Sword in his hand and turned around, ready to face a life-and-death battle.

The atmosphere in the square suddenly became tense, as if even the air had frozen.

The ghost exuded a powerful aura and approached Feng Xiaodao step by step. Feng Xiaodao finally saw the ghost's true appearance.

His face was as pale as paper, but it exuded a strange glow. His eyes were like a deep lake, cold and mysterious, with pride and confidence in his eyes, as if he was full of disdain for the world. There was still blood on his lips, and his cold fangs exposed his identity as a ghost.

The clothes were exquisite and gorgeous, and the white robe was embroidered with delicate blood-red patterns, which flickered with a faint light.

Such a ghost makes people feel scared, but also attracted by its unique charm.

Feng Xiaodao stared at the other person's glasses seriously. Xia Xuansi's words calmed him down a lot and he said, "You are the least disgusting ghost I have ever seen!"
