It was January, the middle of winter when the mountains were covered with snow.

It is also because of this that the Kamado family, who make a living by selling charcoal, will enter the busiest time of the year.

Ever since the death of Tanjuro Kamado, the head of the family, all the burdens of the family fell on Tanjiro Kamado, the eldest brother. His mother and younger siblings all relied on him to make and sell charcoal to support their lives, so at the age of only 15, he had to support the entire family.

However, at this moment, late at night, when Tanjiro Kamado went to the town to sell charcoal, it was already dark when he returned home because of the heavy snow. Grandpa Saburo at the foot of the mountain asked him to stay overnight on the pretext that there would be man-eating evil spirits haunting at night——

Deep in the mountains and forests.

Inside the Kamado family.

With the doors and windows tightly closed, Kamado Aoi held her eldest daughter Nezuko, who was covered in blood, tightly in her arms, calling out, "Nezuko...! Nezuko! Hold on..."

Beside the mother and daughter, the brothers Takeo Kamado and Shigeru Kamado protected Hanako Kamado behind them, and in Hanako's arms was the youngest son of the Kamado family, the infant Ryuta Kamado.

The three siblings protected their youngest brother, leaning against their mother, Zaomen Kuizhi, and shivering.

Outside the house, the disturbing sound of wind and snow mixed with the sounds of fighting continued to be heard.

Muzan Kibutsuji looked coldly at Shinobu Kocho who was half-kneeling in the snow opposite him, and shook his head in disappointment.

"Is that all? I think I overestimated you."

"Heh..." Shinobu Kocho's panting drowned out the wind and snow beside her. She stared at the evil spirit opposite with hatred, her hands tightly gripping the Sun Blade, and slowly stood up again.

"Who was it that... tried to escape the moment he saw me?"

The facial features on Muzan Kibutsuji's face, which was full of seductive charm, were distorted for a moment.

escape……

The moment he saw Shinobu Kocho, he did show signs of running away immediately.

Based on his control over those who were transformed into demons by him, and some information passed back by Douma before his death several years ago, he focused his attention on the Butterfly Sisters.

In the subsequent investigation, Muzan Kibutsuji repeatedly sent his evil spirits to attack the Demon Slayer Corps in order to force them to test Kanae Kocho and Shinobu Kocho.

It’s a pity that Kanae Kocho seemed to have disappeared from this world, but her sister started to become active in the Demon Slayer Corps.

This little girl gave Muzan Kibutsuji a very strange feeling. The demons who died under her sword did not seem to be simply defeated by their breathing techniques or have their necks cut off.

Once, one of the Lower Moons among the Twelve Kizuki narrowly escaped from the Choucho Ninja Sword. Muzan Kibutsuji carefully examined the guy's injuries, and his subsequent discovery made him feel uncontrollable fear in his heart.

—Tsugikoku Yoriichi…

This nightmare-like name was once again recalled by him.

Yoriichi Tsugikuni's Breathing of the Sun can cause him irreparable injuries, and the sword swung by the Demon Slayer girl named Shinobu Kocho seems to have a similar effect.

That was not the Breathing of the Sun, but a completely new kind of power.

But no matter what it was, Muzan Kibutsuji regarded Shinobu Kocho as his target to be killed.

However, the scumbag boss is still a scumbag boss. Although he wants to kill, he will never do anything that puts himself in danger.

Apart from sending his evil ghosts to test their own deaths, he did not take action himself.

However, he didn't expect that because he was fed up with not being able to find the blue red spider lily, he simply started experimenting with creating a ghost that could overcome the sunlight. However, in this deep forest, he injected ghost blood into the body of a little girl named Nezuko Kamado. Before he could do anything to her family, he was caught up by Shinobu Kocho.

Just like what Shinobu Kocho said, the moment they met, Muzan Kibutsuji... subconsciously wanted to run away...

When he thought about how he had greatly overestimated Shinobu Kocho and even almost ran away in front of her, Muzan Kibutsuji's already twisted heart became even darker.

"Escape... Hehehe..."

"If I kill you, I won't have to run away!"

Chapter 369: I tell you, just shout at Jiguo Yuanyi and he will definitely be scared away

Perhaps in order to hide the cowardice deep in his heart, Muzan Kibutsuji stopped talking nonsense with Shinobu Kocho.

His arms stretched out, his flesh twisted, and quickly extended into ten-meter-long whips.

The densely packed spikes on the whip constantly changed their shapes and positions, and mouth-like organs grew out of many places.

Waving his arms, two ten-meter-long flesh-and-blood whips whistled and smashed towards Shinobu Kocho, leaving afterimages behind.

Boom-! ! ! !

There was a roar in the snow, and Shinobu Kocho dodged to the side, but found that her body's ability to move was restricted in some way and became slow.

She quickly noticed the mouths that kept opening and closing on the whips transformed from Muzan Kibutsuji's arms.

(Using the suction of your mouth to create a vortex and slow down my movements?)

Shinobu Kocho glanced at Muzan Kibutsuji who was attacking her from a distance with only a whip, and her eyes couldn't help but show contempt.

This ancestor of ghosts who has frightened the world and brought thousands of years of tragedy is really... so despicable!

Even at this point, he only dared to use this long-range method to deal with her and was not willing to get close to her at all?

Shinobu Kocho didn't know that the reason why Muzan Kibutsuji was so cautious that it was not an exaggeration to say that he was cowardly was entirely because of her power that could cause irreparable injuries to demons, which made Muzan Kibutsuji always think of Yoriichi Tsugakuni uncontrollably.

But that didn't stop her from laughing at her scumbag boss.

"I remember...some guy once called you that—"

Swinging her sword to repel the incoming whip, Kocho Shinobu, who was retreating in mid-air, sneered:

"He called you a scumbag boss, but now it seems that you really deserve this title."

Ghost Dance Tsuji Muzan: "..."

Gan!

Feeling deeply hurt by his dignity - which he actually had no such thing - Muzan Kibutsuji increased the speed of his whip as if his defense was broken.

“Go to hell…! Go to hell, die, die, die—~”

There were only two thorn whips that came at her like a violent storm, but they left large afterimages in the air, and the dense net formed by them blocked all of Shinobu Kocho's escape routes.

"Breath of Insects..."

Shinobu Kocho took a deep breath.

"Butterfly Dance Teasing!"

In an instant, the girl's movements were as light as a butterfly, and her speed was incredible. Just like the teasing in the name of the move, she actually made incredible angles repeatedly in the air, narrowly avoiding the constantly attacking flesh-and-blood whip.

"The Dance of Bee Fangs is really amazing!!"

The originally agile butterfly figure turned into a speeding poisonous bee in an instant. Seizing the opportunity in the fleeting battle, Shinobu Kocho found a gap in the impenetrable web of thorns and whips, and rushed to Muzan Kibutsuji.

The Nichirin Sword pierced the opponent's throat at an unexpected angle, and Shinobu Kocho's eyes were filled with murderous intent.

"go to hell--!"

Whoosh-!

On the back of Muzan Kibutsuji, the twisting flesh turned into nine flesh tubes, each with a sharp spike at the end, stabbing towards Shinobu Kocho from all directions.

The opponent is faster.

If this continued, before she could pierce the other person's neck - if she could do it - she would be pierced by those barbed flesh tubes.

Shinobu Kocho immediately understood the current situation, but now she had no way out and could only risk her life to see if she could kill the Demon King here.

Even if the chance is extremely small.

(It’s a pity… I won’t be able to see the day my sister wakes up…)

(Where on earth did that damn guy take my sister's soul...)

Shinobu Kocho mistakenly believed that Kanae Kocho was unconscious because her soul was not in her body, but had followed Jiang Lianqiu somewhere else. She sighed inwardly at the last moment of her life.

Then, Shinobu Kocho's attack missed.

At the moment before Muzan Kibutsuji was about to pierce her body, he seemed to realize something and pulled away desperately to distance himself from Shinobu Kocho.

While being on guard against Shinobu Kocho, the Ghost King looked up at the sky with an extremely solemn expression.

Butterfly Shinobu steadied herself, feeling somewhat relieved to have survived the ordeal.

She pursed her lips and raised her eyes, but as a human being, she could see nothing except the howling wind and snow in the dark night.

However, after just a moment, a strange sound was heard.

It seemed to be the whistling of the wind, but it was different.

Just when Shinobu Kocho was full of doubts, the night wind brought a sweet cry:

"Kibutsuji Muzan!!!"

"The lid of Tsugikuni Yoriichi's coffin can no longer be held down!!!!!"

Damn it!

Lying on the grass, lying on the grass, lying on the grass! ! ! !

Muzan Kibutsuji's face changed drastically, and under the gaze of Shinobu Kocho who was certain that she had seen a ghost, he almost ran away crawling!

He ran away! ?

Shinobu Kocho was stunned. If this guy hadn't revealed himself right after appearing, she would never have believed that the guy in front of her, who had been about to run away upon seeing her, and now had been frightened away by the sound of "Tsugikuni Yoriichi," was the legendary Demon King...

The whistling sound in the wind and snow started again, and a figure fell from the sky.

When she saw the landing figure clearly, Shinobu Kocho's eyes widened and she stood there in disbelief.

"Huh... I finally caught up." Kanae Kocho kept patting her chest in fear, not daring to think about what would happen if she was a step slower.

"But I didn't expect it to actually work. Qiu Jun, you told me that just shouting like that would definitely scare him away, but I didn't believe you—ugh!"

"elder sister!!!!!!!"

Shinobu Kocho suddenly rushed into her arms, hugged her waist tightly, and her body kept shaking. It was hard to tell whether it was because of the chill brought by the wind and snow or because she was too excited.

"Sister... Sister! Is it really you? Is it really you? I'm not dreaming, am I? Are you awake? Are you finally awake?!"

"Anin..."

Kanae Kocho hugged her sister tenderly and stroked her head gently.

"you……"

The girl's face twitched a little.

"You're hugging me so tight, I can hardly breathe... nephew!"

"Ah!" Shinobu Kocho let go of her hand in panic, but then hugged her again reluctantly.

What a great sisterly bond! Yao Jiayin exclaimed in a delighted tone.

After four years, Ah Ren has grown up quite well. Jiang Lianqiu commented.

Butterfly Kanae: “?”

She looked down at her sister who was hugging her, gnashing her teeth.

Damn Qiu Jun, you're taking advantage of your sister by using her body, right?

Chapter 370 Sister, if you do this, it will make me look like a part of your play

Qiu Jun, when it comes to body shape, I think I'm better. As a celebrity, maintaining a healthy body is a must.

How dare you, a man in his twenties, compare your figure with that of an 18-year-old?

Qiu Jun's behavior of casually revealing a woman's age is a complete failure!

With her mind in a mess, Butterfly Kanae endured the bickering between the other two people, and looked helplessly at her sister who was clinging to her.

"Sister! Sister, sister, sister—"

Hugging Kanae Kocho tightly, Shinobu Kocho clung to her like taffy, rubbing her face against her chest.

Silly sister, you have been taken advantage of without even realizing it!

"Okay, stop hugging me!"

Kocho Kanae pushed Kocho Shinobu away with gentle but unquestionable force and glared at her.
