Chapter 444 437. Desire
The sharp belts were extremely tough, one after another they kept attacking Tanjiro, the frequency was so high that they almost coincided, Tanjiro kept parrying with knives, his arms were a little numb due to the continuous vibration.

Where the two figures passed, bricks and tiles were lifted up like a demolition, and the sound made people in the whole street startled.

Although the pedestrians in this 'city that never sleeps' didn't know exactly what happened, they subconsciously scattered and fled when they heard such violent movements that continued to resound.

The confrontation became more and more intense, so that Tanjiro had no time to care about whether the battle was discovered by ordinary people.Humans don't have extraordinary resilience like ghosts. No matter how devilishly trained he is, he can't change his human nature. As long as he is a little careless, this strange belt will leave fatal scars on his body.

"boom--"

Using the impact of the belt again to open the distance, Tanjiro borrowed strength from the eaves, glanced at the direction of Yukime from the corner of his eye, and adjusted his breathing.

The breath of water, the shape of ten, life and death.

Tanjiro didn't choose to use the Breath of the Sun. If he delays the time, the 'breath of the day' will be too heavy. In the current situation, Water Breath, which is good at defense, is more useful. What he has to do is to delay until others come.

But procrastination is procrastination, he still chose the strongest move of breathing water as soon as he came up.

Because the ghost in front of me... How should I put it, Tanjiro felt that she had the aura of the ghost of the upper string, and it was indeed much stronger than the ghost of the lower string, but when he actually fought, he found that he was much weaker than the other ghosts of the upper string. , at least it won't make him feel powerless.

In short, he felt that he might be enough to deal with it alone.

So he was thinking maybe he could find a chance to kill him?
Accompanied by the rotation of the figure, the Japanese sword drew a moon-like arc in the night sky, one round after another, surrounding Tanjiro.

The incoming belts were all bounced off by the blade, and each time they bounced further.

After fighting again, Luo Ji frowned slightly.

She could clearly feel that the boy on the opposite side was getting stronger and stronger with the sword dance.

Seeing the Rilun Knife getting closer, she began to panic.

Because she couldn't find a way to break this young man's sword skills that integrated offense and defense for a while.

"You can't take this knife hard."

Although she didn't know how to deal with it, her instinct made Luo Ji understand that she had to find a way to escape.

Then, with a violent bang, the belt lifted the roof.

"!!?"

"asshole!"

Tanjiro had an angry look on his face.

Because this ghost's actions will undoubtedly hurt ordinary people who have not evacuated from the house.

Although most of the people on the street have sensed the danger and ran away, there are still people in the house who don't know what's going on outside and are sinking in desire.

And this is indeed the purpose of Luo Ji.

"Hmph! Aren't you guys very capable? Demon Slayer Squad?"

As a ghost, of course she knows the significance of the battle of the swordsmen of the Demon Slayer Squad.

Isn't it to protect these weak, pitiful and stupid human beings?

It's not without reason that she chose Flower Street as her hiding place.

It's a mixed bag, but for better or for worse, it's all human.

And as long as they are human beings, they can be her hostages!
"fine……"

Seeing that there was no one on the lifted roof, Tanjiro breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously, the Japanese sword in his hand accelerated, and his steps approached Fallen Hime.

But such a reaction made Luo Ji show a triumphant smile on her face.

If she meets a swordsman who doesn't care about ordinary people and only cares about killing ghosts, her trick will be useless. This kid looks very nervous, which means he is exactly what she wants!

"Sure enough, humans are stupid creatures."

Falling Hime jumped down into the room, and cast a provocative look at Tanjirou.

Then brandish the belt to open a path on the wall, reckless.

"asshole!"

Tanjiro stopped the sword skill in his hand. Although 'Life Flow' is very strong, it will affect his speed of action. The ghost in front of him obviously saw this, and forced him to stop in this way.

But he had no choice but to stop his sword skills and catch up.

Because Luo Ji took the entire 'Flower Street' as a hostage.

"stop!"

In order to protect those who were still in the house without knowing the situation and had no time to evacuate, Tanjiro quickly followed.

······
"what happened?"

Although Inosuke has a grumpy temper, his perception is unexpectedly sharp.

He can tell at a glance that the people around him are absent-minded.

For example, this guy who calls himself the 'God of Magnificence' has been following the old guy in front of him with a worried look since just now, and he has no intentions at all. If it weren't for someone leading the way, this guy would have probably lost himself in the flower street complex in the street.

"..."

Usui Tengen, who was questioned by Inosuke, was silent.

"Ugh……"

Xuan Hao, who was leading the way, sighed helplessly and turned his head.

"Go, go find your missing wife first, and leave the ghost to me. Inosuke, you go with him too."

Yu Sui Tianyuan, who saw through his inner thoughts at a glance, was slightly taken aback, then stopped.

"That direction, and there..."

Xuan Hao raised his hand and pointed in two directions, "I feel that these two directions have the same aura as that ghost. You can start looking for them from these two places. Let's split up and move quickly."

"grateful!"

Yu Sui Tianyuan's eyes immediately became clear.

He bowed deeply to the old man in front of him, and then disappeared instantly.

"Forehead……"

Inosuke on the side was still stunned.

"Don't be dazed, you go to another place to find it."

"Oh! The pig is advancing!"

Seeing the two figures moving away quickly, Xuan Hao shook his head helplessly, turned around, and walked slowly towards the aura that was shuttling between buildings not far away.

There are still crowds of people on the street.

After all, this is a city full of desires, and the small troubles in the distance don't seem to affect the normal operation of the city.

The old man shuttled back and forth in the street against the crowds, his pace was very slow, and he had a panoramic view of people's desires.

Not everyone deserves to be saved. If it wasn't for Wu Mi's sake, he wouldn't even hate creatures like 'ghosts'.

After all, this is how the world is made. Where there is good, there will be evil.

Ghosts are nothing more than the manifestation of evil in a form, and in the final analysis, they are just the desires of 'people'.

Human beings are such selfish creatures, most of the time they can only, and only worry about themselves.

But when you see others in trouble, you will always lend a helping hand unconsciously.

It sounds contradictory, but that's just being human.

"That's why I like humans more."

······
Behind the brilliance, there will be shadows.

corner store.

The most low-end shop in Yuguo, those geisha who can't be named by customers and who are sick will be sent here.

It is dilapidated and out of tune with the bustling city center, more like a slum.

And this is the end of one of the directions that Xuan Hao pointed at.

Yu Sui Tianyuan came here with a gloomy expression, and then found Chuhe, one of his wives who was trapped here and was dying.

Chia Crane is very smart, and managed to see through the identity of Ji Jigui while lurking in Huajie, but the other party is also very vigilant and has always suspected her.

As a last resort, she had to take poison and tried to escape from the "Kyogoku House" on the grounds of illness. Unexpectedly, Fern Ji gave her a belt as a farewell gift when she saw her off. Naturally, this was to closely monitor her, and In the event of an 'accident', it is an insurance that can kill people instantly and silence them.

But even knowing this, in the face of the absolute power gap, Chu He couldn't refuse such a 'farewell gift', otherwise he would be killed immediately.

"Her belt can absorb and imprison humans. Using this method, she has captured many young and beautiful girls. Most of these girls should still be alive..." The weak young crane dictated the information to Yu who held her in his arms. Sui Tianyuan listened.

To sum it up - this ghost hates ugly things, whether they are humans or others, it only picks beautiful ones to eat, and likes fresh ones.

"So... she's quite picky, isn't she?"

Yu Sui Tianyuan's tone became colder and colder.

The current information is summarized.This ghost imprisoned many girls in a certain part of the city as a 'food reserve', if nothing else, it was the other direction that Mr. Xuanhao was pointing at.

"Don't worry about this mission anymore. The Ghost Slayer Team has a very strong lineup this time. Even if Wu Mi comes here in person, it will be a dead end."

As Yusui Tianyuan said, he stuffed the antidote pill in his hand into the mouth of the young crane, "Leave here as soon as the antidote takes effect, and organize all ordinary people to evacuate by the way, do you hear me clearly?"

"Yes……"

Hearing the soft response from the young crane in his arms, Yu Sui Tianyuan gently put her down, and then disappeared on the spot again.

On the roof, he ran quickly, towards the other direction Mr. Xuan Hao pointed.

While running, he listened to the sounds around him, and finally found clues in an empty and dilapidated street.

"Here, go deep underground!"

The sound of someone fighting came from the ground, the echo was very loud, and Yu Sui Tianyuan, who was extremely sensitive to sound, could hear it clearly.

He bent down to the ground, the sound came into his mind, and the underground scene appeared in his mind like a sonar.

There is a cave deep underground here, but the tunnels leading there barely allow children to pass through.

"Chong-"

Yusui Tianyuan slowly pulled out the two huge sun wheel knives connected by chains from behind.

The veins in both arms suddenly popped up, and the strength surged in an instant.

Breath of Sound · One Shape · Boom!
As the name suggests, the violent bang resounded through the sky in an instant.

The dual knives he uses are special, capable of triggering a surprisingly powerful explosion.

"Tsk—"

Fallen Hime smacked her lips while dodging Tanjiro's pursuit.

"This voice...can make such a big noise, is it Zhu?"

Hearing the violent bang from a distance, Luo Ji felt that the situation was getting worse.

She knew the direction, probably because the lair she used to hide people was discovered, but she didn't have the mind to take care of it now.

Because just the boy chasing her behind her made her feel difficult enough!

"Stinky boy, how many of you are here!?"

"No comment!"

Tanjirou's expression had turned livid from just now.

Because the ghost in front of him had already touched his bottom line.

It is simply unforgivable to try to threaten him with the lives of ordinary people!
"one by one……"

The expression on Luo Ji's face became more and more serious, "It's really annoying, you hateful humans."

"go to hell!"

Four sharp and tough belts attacked Tanjirou from four directions.

"Damn it, it's you!"

Tanjiro stepped forward without hesitation, his breathing rhythm began to change, and the sword skills in his hand also began to change.

The breath of the sun · the shape of the sky · the red mirror of the sun.

The belt close to him was split in an instant, this was the first time he cut off these tough belts.

Bright red blood splashed from the break, these belts were indeed one with this ghost.

"!"

Seeing her severed belt, Luo Ji panicked even more.

The sword skill used by the young man in front of him changed instantly, it was more fierce than before, and there was that whistling sound... Is he breathing?

For some reason, the sound of such heavy breathing made her feel a little trembling.

The breath of the sun, the shape of one, and the dance of flames.

"hateful!"

Seeing the arc-shaped knife light in front of her eyes like a flame, Luo Ji was forced to back away continuously.

The young man's attack in front of her became more and more violent, without any intention of pity, the fiery wind blade left light bloodstains on her face.

The tingling feeling made Luo Ji even more annoyed, "How dare you! Scratch my face!"

"..."

The expression on Tanjiro's face remained unmoved, but he actually wanted to say sorry, because what he wanted to chop off was the neck, but the ghost avoided it.

The belt whipped the air and made a sharp wind sound, enveloping Tanjiro who was close at hand again.

However, facing the attack that covered almost all escape routes, Tanjiro did not panic.

The breath of the sun · the shape of the eleven · the magic sun rainbow.

His figure began to spin like a dance, and with the high-speed dodge, the whole person disappeared in place, leaving only an afterimage pierced by Luo Ji's belt.

Seeing the pierced figure suddenly disappear without a trace, Luo Ji was slightly taken aback.

"where is it?"

In the pitch-black night sky, a 'gap' thread that only Tanjiro could see was connected from Rakuhime's neck to the Hirinkana in his hand.

His flipped figure instantly appeared in the sky behind Luo Ji, and the blade in his hand cut out along the line of the 'gap'.

The breath of the sun, the shape of ten, and the train.

The flaming blade drew a perfect arc like a wheel in the night sky, aiming at the back of Luo Ji's neck.

But just when the sword was about to touch the target, the thread of the gap was snapped.

It seemed that Luo Ji sensed the danger and wrapped herself in a belt like crazy.

The slash with nowhere to draw strength in mid-air, even after cutting off these belts, still has no strength to continue severing the neck.

"Ugh……"

Tanjiro was naturally aware of this, he sighed slightly, retracted his knife and distanced himself.

Human beings are not allowed to make mistakes in the battle against ghosts.

Now that he has the upper hand, if he is eager for success and makes a mistake to let the opponent seize the opportunity, it is not worth it.
