Fox Demon: Heaven rewards diligence; I will eventually achieve divine mastery of martial arts.

Sanemi Shinazugawa could only look deeply at Tanjiro Kamado before slaying the demon that had completely lost its ability to resist and then lunging at another demon.

Meanwhile, at Ubuyashiki Kagaya's residence, Ubuyashiki Kagaya also had a solemn expression.

It can be said that if this battle could continue like this and Kokushibo could be killed, even if Muzan Kibutsuji never came in the end, they could still give Japan a long period of peace.

But if Tanjiro Kamado loses, it will be a devastating blow to them.

After all, Akaza and Kokushibo alone are beyond the capabilities of any other Pillar-level swordsman.

Whether this battle can achieve its objective depends entirely on Kamado Flick Wolf.

We absolutely have to win.

Kagaya Ubuyashiki clenched his fists and prayed.

Just then, Sakon Tsurugi, who had been standing quietly beside him wearing a tengu mask, suddenly tilted his head.

His brows furrowed slightly beneath the mask.

"what happened?"

Tamayo noticed Sakon Tsurugi's actions and asked.

"I seemed to sense an unfamiliar presence, but it vanished in an instant. Perhaps it was just my inherently suspicious nature."

Sakon Tsurugi shook his head; he had only caught a whiff of that unfamiliar scent for a fleeting moment.

So when he deliberately mentioned it, he realized that he had been under too much pressure and was a little confused.

"is it?"

Tamayo, however, kept a watchful eye on things.

At this moment, Kokushibo had already been reborn in front of Tanjiro Kamado.

At this moment, his eyes were filled with even greater resentment.

It seemed that it wasn't him who had just been beaten beyond recognition, but rather Kamado Tanjiro.

Although Kokushibo's eyes were almost filled with madness, he still retained a sliver of reason.

Anger and instinct fueled his fighting spirit, but he understood that he was not fully recovered and needed more time.

Just as he was pondering and recalling Tanjiro Kamado's actions, a voice suddenly rang in his mind.

The voice was extremely distant, but it quickly exploded in his mind:

"Go west."

In the end, Kokushibo immediately realized that it was Kibutsuji Muzan's voice.

Could it be that Muzan Kibutsuji is tempted and wants to take action himself?

Kokushibo was overjoyed. If Muzan Kibutsuji were to make a move, he would surely be able to easily defeat Tanjiro Kamado.

At that moment, Akaza glanced at him and immediately realized that Muzan Kibutsuji must have told Akaza as well, which led the two of them to think of the same thing.

Without any hesitation, both of them chose to believe Muzan Kibutsuji's words.

After nodding in agreement, they immediately ran westward together.

Tanjiro Kamado, of course, would not let the two people in front of him leave so easily.

So he followed without hesitation, clenching his fists and throwing another punch.

Kokushibo turned around, exchanged a punch with Tanjiro Kamado, and then prepared to leave.

Tanjiro Kamado squinted slightly; this was how Kokushibo left this place last time.

He certainly wouldn't let them leave so easily today. (End of Chapter)

Chapter 292 The oriole is behind

The departure of Akaza, Kokushibo, and Tanjiro Kamado changed the atmosphere of the entire Demon Slayer Corps headquarters.

Because the lingering effects of the previous battle were so strong, many people and evil spirits dared not approach, so the three of them were much more relaxed now that they had left.

However, the atmosphere inside the Ubuyashiki residence was not good at this time.

Compared to others, Kagaya Ubuyashiki has a lot more to think about.

According to Lin Yu's previous account, both Kokushibo and Akaza were arrogant people, so how could they possibly escape like this?

Unless the sky brightens, the night is only just beginning.

Kagaya Ubuyashiki felt something was very wrong.

Moreover, Kokushibo's condition already seemed problematic at the time, as if he was completely consumed by anger and fighting spirit. Why did he suddenly want to distance himself from Kamado Tanjiro?

"My lord, what are you still worried about? It looks like we're going to win this time."

Ubuyashiki Amane spoke up, she was very happy, there was a lot of good news recently, the most important of which was that Ubuyashiki Kagaya-sensei had been cured.

Then they immediately won a great victory in the battle.

All of this is thanks to Tanjiro Kamado.

In that sense, she seems to have never thanked Kamado Tanjiro. Perhaps after this battle, she will find an opportunity to properly thank him.

"I just find the game a bit strange because of the departure of Upper Moon One and Upper Moon Three."

Kagaya Ubuyashiki shook his head, but he still felt a little regretful, since Muzan Kibutsuji had not appeared this time.

The opponent was too cautious, or perhaps Tanjiro Kamado's strength was simply too great.

If we don't seize this great opportunity, it may be difficult to have such an opportunity again in the future.

However, a gentle smile still appeared on his face:

"The deaths of these two Upper Moon demons will surely make Muzan Kibutsuji hesitant to act rashly. We should experience a long period of calm afterward, but we still cannot let our guard down. After all, Muzan Kibutsuji will continue to create demons. Besides..."

Kagaya Ubuyashiki had already begun to consider what to do next, while at that moment, Sakonji Urokodaki suddenly smelled that faint scent again, and this time it wasn't just a fleeting glimpse...

Instead, it suddenly became incredibly pungent, making him almost vomit.

This is the aura of an evil spirit!

Urokodaki Sakon's pupils behind the tengu mask suddenly contracted, and he shouted:

"Be careful, enemy attack!"

Upon hearing this voice, the expressions of the people in the room varied.

Urokodaki Sakonji suddenly drew his Nichirin Blade, which he had been keeping on his thigh, and Tamayo was the next quickest to react.

Tamayo's face flashed with sorrow and anger. Earlier, when Urokodaki Sakonji noticed something, she had already shown an uneasy expression.

Meanwhile, Yushiro quickly came to Tamayo's side and stood guard over her.

Ubuyashiki Amane quickly arrived beside Ubuyashiki Kagaya, while Nezuko also looked around warily.

Three seconds later, an extremely oppressive atmosphere descended into the room:

"Ubuyashiki Kagaya, I'm sorry to interrupt you, but all of you will die today."

A slender figure emerged from the ceiling, its crimson eyes flashing with a dangerous light, and its body radiating a strong killing intent.

"Kibutsuji Muzan!"

Tamayo's eyes, which had remained unchanged until now, suddenly turned into a furious rage as she stared fiercely at the figure in the sky.

Everyone else was also staring in shock at the sky.

The newcomer was none other than Kibutsuji Muzan.

He glanced indifferently at everyone below and said:

"The Ubuyashiki family, who have always been like insects in the shadows, and Tamayo, who left me hundreds of years ago."

Muzan Kibutsuji rolled his eyes, finally fixing his gaze on Nezuko. "And a demon that can overcome sunlight, today has been quite fruitful."

Kagaya Ubuyashiki was initially surprised, but he quickly calmed down. However, he had already felt something was strange when he saw the two demons leave. Now that Muzan Kibutsuji had arrived, he suddenly understood. It turned out that Muzan Kibutsuji had been planning this all along.

In this way, Tanjiro Kamado's master's guess was completely correct.

Muzan Kibutsuji is indeed extremely concerned about overcoming sunlight.

"You call us shady, but haven't you always been hiding in the shadows yourself?"

Ubuyashiki Kagaya said coldly.

"Hehe, yes, but unfortunately that's all in the past. As long as I get her now, the problem that has plagued me for hundreds of years will be solved, and I can also take care of insects like you and former traitors."

Muzan Kibutsuji didn't care about Kagaya Ubuyashiki's taunts at all. Although he was always concerned about his weaknesses, he was about to find a way to overcome them, which naturally made him feel extremely happy.

As for Tanjiro Kamado, who looks very strong?

Anyway, a hundred years from now, he'll just be a handful of dust, and a perfect being like him doesn't need to care about the other party.

"So you're all ready to die for my success?"

Muzan Kibutsuji chuckled, looking at the crowd before him with a faint smile, hoping to see despair and pain on their faces. Although he had seen it many times before, the expression on human faces always gave him immense pleasure.

Unfortunately, to his disappointment, the faces of the people in front of him showed either anger, hostility, or calm.

"Kibutsuji Muzan, do you think you'll be better off after you've dealt with us? What you've done over the past few hundred years is enough to make a group of people hate you to the bone. Even if the Ubuyashiki family is wiped out, there will still be countless people who will rise up in rebellion in the future."
