I, the Lord of the Fifth Throne, am the source of all things!

Faced with Gyutaro's twisted smile, Fujii Ren's mouth seemed to split to his ears, and he laughed in a distorted, manic way!

"Hehe, if you were more perfect, handsome, happy, and popular than them, would you still hate them?"

"!?"

"Hahahaha!!! Are you pursuing that disgusting kind of equality!? Excrement!!!!"

Seeing that Gyutaro was unable to refute his words for a moment, Duanmu Lian laughed out with contempt and mockery.

As he laughed, eight ribbons appeared behind him and attacked him stealthily.

Duanmu Lian didn't even flinch; the sheer force of her aura sent the ribbon that had been used to sneak up on her flying away.

boom---!

With the burst of energy, Duanmu Lian concentrated all her strength in her arms and unleashed it.

The sheer force of the explosion caused Gyutaro's eyes to widen in shock, and the scythes in his hands were knocked out of his grasp. He was sent flying backward like a cannonball.

Snap!

As Gyutaro flew backward, he tried to adjust his body in mid-air to dissipate the enormous impact, but suddenly everything went dark before his eyes as a large hand gripped his face like an iron clamp.

Gyutaro's pupils contracted, and at that moment, his eyes reflected the sinister smile of Duanmu Lian.

"What's the point of causing others pain and unhappiness? If you gain happiness, aren't you just like the person you envy and hate? You yearn for what you hate and envy, but then you're overjoyed when you get it!"

While moving at high speed, Duanmu Lian grabbed Gyutaro's big face and shoved his head into the ground, giving it a plowing-like rubbing motion.

Along the way, it crashed into and destroyed one building after another, crushing one precious life after another.

"People say money is sinful and worthless, but they all pursue it!"

Duanmu Lian, who had ground half of Gyutaro's head into a bloody pulp, grabbed the other's neck again and used him as a projectile to blast at the screaming Daki who was charging towards her.

Gyutaro's speed was so fast that he created three sound barrier rings in mid-air.

Finally, to Daki's utter horror, her brother, this human cannonball, collided with her, creating a bloody explosion.

"They say beautiful women are trouble, but everyone wants one!"

Just as Daki's mind began to clear, a large foot loomed large in her horrified vision.

The next moment, her face and head were crushed into a broken eggshell.

"You say heaven is so wonderful, but nobody wants to go there right now! Why are you all so hypocritical?"

Duanmu Lian sneered contemptuously as he gripped the black sword, Dark Moon, tightly with both hands.

Then the black sword transformed into an impenetrable storm of slashes, engulfing the bodies of Gyutaro and Daki, the brother and sister.

Even without the sun and the Nichirin Blade, it doesn't mean he can't kill these two evil spirits.

He only took action to gather material; all he needed to do was beat the opponent to their knees so they couldn't get up.

For humans, breaking their arms and legs is enough.

For a demon, all it takes is to torture and ravage it until it is incapable of moving freely into human form.

"You scum of a human being! Aa ...

Faced with Duanmu Lian's relentless attacks, Gyutaro's hysterical roar erupted amidst an endless storm of bloody blades.

Blood Demon Art: The Leaping Archer!

With such a roar and momentum, the blood blades that burst forth from Gyutaro blocked and held off Duanmu Lian's dense and swift air-cutting waves.

The Upper Moon demon's regenerative ability was astonishing; his body, which had been violently damaged by Duanmu Lian, immediately recovered.

Then, with a ferocious expression, he looked at Duanmu Lian, and the scythe suddenly spun back into his hand from afar, striking at her once more.

For some reason, he hated the human in front of him even more.

It was probably because the other person's sharp words had struck a nerve with him.

After all, most people, no matter how unfortunate, still yearn for happiness.

laugh----!"

In the next instant, a blood-red slash flashed through the air, and with a sharp, tearing sound, it struck Duanmu Lian's neck like a shrill bolt of lightning.

Duanmu Lian grinned maliciously, and a cross-shaped spear suddenly appeared in her free left hand.

Faced with the demon's fierce slashes, he cleaved it horizontally with the force of a sweeping army.

"clang----!"

The sharp, piercing sound of the impact transformed into a sonic wave, radiating outwards from the point where the cross-shaped spear and the blood-stained scythe collided.

Gyutaro's furious, unrestrained attack was blocked by Duanmu Lian in an even more ferocious manner.

Do not!

It's not just about blocking it.

"There will be no second chance for a death match. I... am living life to the fullest!!!!!!!!!"

Before the shockwave from the clash between the human and the ghost had subsided, Duanmu Lian's azure eyes seemed to light up with an indescribable brilliance. As he experienced the battle that defied all premonition, a demonic smile appeared on his face.

The power stored within his body continued to merge with his physical form and began to circulate intensely.

Visible bio-electric currents erupted throughout Lian's body, even spreading to the weapons in her hands.

"My blood is boiling!!!!"

Accompanied by Duanmu Lian's loud laughter, a violent bio-electric current suddenly exploded from the Cross Spear. The pure, immense force seemed to transform into a thunderbolt that obliterated everything, directly shattering the surrounding ground.

"Bang————!"

With a deafening roar, the ground suddenly shattered, and the terrifying impact and gale force struck Gyutaro heavily.

In an instant, visible waves appeared on the surface of his entire ghost body, as if they were ripples on the water.

The power emanating from this mere human, and the aura of a demon on the battlefield, caused Gyutaro to stare wide-eyed in astonishment.

He was then violently thrown away, crashing into a nearby dilapidated house, causing it to collapse. He then continued to smash into seven more houses, creating a deep trench more than 200 meters long in the ground before finally stopping.

"elder brother!!!"

Seeing her brother being sent flying by a brutal attack, Daki, who had recovered, also looked in astonishment in the direction where Gyutaro had flown away.

Suddenly, just as Daki turned her head, a shadow loomed over her from behind.

She turned around in horror and saw Duanmu Lian carrying a cross-shaped spear on her shoulder and holding a long sword, coldly looking down at her.

The other person's expression was exactly the same as Irena's expression when she looked at Armin in Attack on Titan.

That expression and that aura were so powerful that even Daki, a demon, began to tremble and shed tears, let alone humans.

Then, before losing consciousness, the last thing the overwhelmed Doki saw was Duanmu Lian's powerful attack, which seemed capable of cleaving her into pieces.

Chapter Nine: A Frenzied Slash of Muzan Kibutsuji - Hundred Miles of Land

After Duanmu Lian chopped the twin demons, Gyutaro and Daki, into meat sauces with not a trace of fat, the piles of small pieces of meat on the ground still showed signs of coming together and regenerating.

In response, Duanmu Lian took out a freezing device from her spatial ring to freeze the meat pieces, and then sealed them in different containers.

At this moment, Yoshiwara's red-light district was a complete mess.

Many buildings were destroyed by the impact, and cries for help and screams of agony echoed throughout the area.

Noisy, chaotic, disorderly...

Although Duanmu Lian ended the battle in a very short time, the commotion and destructive power caused by the battle were enormous.

The aftermath of this battle killed thousands of people.

Duanmu Lian didn't care at all about those who were affected and died.

After all, these evil siblings have devoured far more people here than have died today.

Even without these two demonic siblings, many women still die in Yoshiwara, the red-light district, a place of desire.

"Next, we need to find a quiet place to properly study the ghost blood... I wonder if two lab mice will be enough."

After placing the last piece of meat into a container, Duanmu Lian ignored the horrific scene around her and began to contemplate her next move.

His intense desire to research made him eager to discover the mysteries of the demon's body.

"------!"

However, just as Duanmu Lian finished packing his things and was about to leave, he suddenly turned his head to look to his left.

Among the panicked crowd, one person stood out from the rest.

The other person was dressed in a black suit and wore a white hat, looking like a handsome gentleman.

The handsome man with pale skin was observing Duanmu Lian with his faintly glowing scarlet eyes.

He was none other than the Demon King, Muzan Kibutsuji.

A man was searching for the blue spider lily he longed for when he heard a huge commotion in the Yoshiwara red-light district. He also sensed that Upper Moon Gyutaro and Daki were fighting.

He had planned to observe secretly, but he didn't expect that the battle would end so soon after he arrived.

What was that thing that defeated the Twin Demons?!

He doesn't know any breathing techniques and doesn't even have a Nichirin Blade, yet he managed to defeat Upper Moon Six!?

As the Demon King who has been fighting the Demon Slayer Corps for a hundred years, he is extremely familiar with breathing techniques and the Nichirin Blade, and would never mistake it.

Now, when Duanmu Lian and Kibutsuji Muzan looked at each other across the distance, both of them were stunned for a moment.
