Simultaneous time travel: But our system is out of sync!

"amazing!"

"Nie Douzi, you're amazing!"

Tanjiro was amazed as he looked at Nezuko, who could change size at will.

He stroked the shrunken head of the little bean, his eyes filled with doting affection.

Faced with the adorable Nezuko, Lin Bei patted her little head, restored his health once more, and then said to Tanjiro.

"Let's rest for another night, and start our journey tomorrow."

We light a fire and eat.

With vegetables and dried meat available.

Both Lin Bei and Tanjiro enjoyed their meal tonight immensely.

During the meal, Lin Bei also discovered that the more refined and nutritious the food, the more yang energy it produced.

While eating, Lin Bei didn't forget about the beans.

He used his yang energy to feed her until she was full.

As for whether this will turn Nezuko into a monster,

Lin Bei said he would talk about it later.

After all, who could resist a doll-like girl like Mizuko looking at him with teary, pleading eyes?

If such a person exists, then he is either not human.

Either she'll become my future sister-in-law.

As his thoughts drifted, Lin Bei recalled the people who died in the original Demon Slayer storyline, and the regrets that evoked such sorrow.

He made a decision in his heart.

When the opportunity arises, we must prevent regrets from happening and ensure a happy ending to the story.

After dinner, it was already late at night.

Tanjiro went to rest early in order to prepare for his journey the next day.

Lin Bei also began to absorb moonlight and refine yang energy.

The night passed quickly.

Lin Bei still used most of the refined yang energy to open up the meridians in his body and enhance the efficiency of absorbing and refining moonlight.

So, after one night, Lin Bei's yang energy decreased instead of increased.

Therefore, Lin Bei did not rush to continue consuming the strengthening power, but instead accumulated his yang energy.

After all, both feeding the beans and healing Tanjiro require consuming yang energy.

And so, Lin Bei, Tanjiro, and Nezuko continued their journey, taking odd jobs along the way to make ends meet.

It wasn't until half a month later.

Through continuous daily training and the nourishment of yang energy, Tanjiro has grown noticeably taller and his physique has become much stronger.

As for Lin Bei, he also used Yang energy to enhance his strength twice in the past two weeks, making him much stronger than before.

However, since there was no point of reference or enemy, he was unable to determine his true strength at this moment.

After crossing another canyon and climbing halfway up a mountain,

Lin Bei looked at the mountains that appeared exceptionally tall in the setting sun and took out a map from his backpack.

"If we haven't gone the wrong way, we should be heading towards Mount Sagiri."

"And the Urokodaki Sakonji that Tomioka Giyuu mentioned is in this mountain."

Hearing Lin Bei's words, Tanjiro also leaned closer.

Looking at the map Lin Bei had drawn by hand, and the dense markings on it, he felt dizzy and confused. He couldn't understand how Lin Bei could find Misty Mountain so accurately with just a piece of paper.

So he carried the beans on his back, nimbly climbed a big tree, and began to look up at the mountain.

A moment later, Tanjiro came down from under the tree, his face full of excitement.

"Brother Lin Bei, there's a courtyard further up."

"Perhaps Urokodaki Sakonji is there."

"Let's hurry over there!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Bei put away the map and nodded.

"In that case, let's hurry on our way."

"After all, it's getting late."

"If that's Urokodaki Sakonji's residence, that would be great. If not, we'll still have a place to rest."

After saying that, he and Tanjiro continued walking up the mountain.

When Lin Bei arrived at the courtyard that Tanjiro had seen, he frowned and his eyes became serious.

In the pitch black, a tiny fire shone from the dilapidated house.

The room, though lit, was eerily silent in the darkness.

At this moment, Tanjiro also caught up, and Nezuko, who had been hiding in the box during the day, also crawled out of the box as the sun went down and followed Tanjiro.

Tanjiro wrinkled his nose and sniffed the air around him as he approached Lin Bei, his expression turning serious.

"Brother Lin Bei, there's a smell of blood."

"There's also a strange taste."

"It tastes a bit like the food at home that day."

At this point, Lin Bei and Tanjiro's expressions changed simultaneously, and they looked at each other and spoke.

"ghost!"

Realizing that the house was haunted and that someone had already been murdered, the two immediately became alert.

Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Bei leaped up and jumped several times up the steps to the door. Without further ado, he kicked the rather old-looking door open.

Tanjiro and the miniature Nezuko followed closely behind, arriving at the door.

But when the three saw the scene inside the room, a chilling killing intent burst forth from Lin Bei and Tanjiro.

"How rude!"

"This is my territory."

"You not only destroyed my house, but you also disturbed my meal! This is unforgivable!"

Inside the room, a man with long, disheveled hair was sitting cross-legged on the floor.

His face was covered in blood that hadn't dried yet, and in his hand he held a human arm that was still bleeding, with clear marks of teeth tearing it open.

It was clearly a man-eating demon.

In front of this man-eating demon, several mutilated corpses were piled up haphazardly.

Judging from the speed at which blood flowed from the body, it was clear that the person had been murdered not long ago.

However, the man-eating demon seemed oblivious to the murderous intent emanating from Lin Bei and Tanjiro.

It turned its gaze to the Beans behind the two of them.

"That's really strange!"

"Did you just become a ghost?"

"They haven't eaten anyone yet."

Then he glanced at Lin Bei and Tanjiro with a disdainful look.

"Are these two humans your servants or your food reserves?"

Seeing the malevolent look in the cannibal's eyes, Mi Douzi quickly stepped forward, protecting the two of them behind her like a mother hen guarding her chicks.

Seeing the Beans' actions, the man-eating demon's eyes revealed an amused expression.

Its eyes turned sinister, a smug smile spread across its lips, and it raised a finger to point at Lin Bei and Tanjiro.

"You're actually protecting these two humans."

"That's what makes me feel ridiculous."

"Predators are protecting their food."

"In that case, let me lend you a hand."

"I'll help you eat these two humans."

"As for the exchange, I'll give you this arm that I haven't finished eating yet."

As he spoke, the man-eating demon threw the severed arm in his hand at the feet of the Bean.

However, looking at the human arm flowing with blood at her feet, which smelled incomparably sweet to demons, Mizuko showed no reaction.

The gluttonous bean, whose appetite had long been spoiled by Lin Bei's use of yang energy, seemed to have seen something dirty.

He took two steps back with a look of disgust on his face.

Upon seeing Midouzi's disgusted expression and actions, the man-eating demon, who had just been incredibly arrogant, suddenly turned cold, as if it had been provoked by something.

"As a ghost, you actually despise human flesh."

After saying that, he faced Nezuko and Lin Bei Tanjiro, who was being protected by Nezuko, and his eyes blazed with boundless killing intent.

"A ghost that doesn't eat people has no value."

"Since you have no value, then die!"

Then the next moment.

The tiny lamp in the room suddenly went out.

The wooden door that Lin Bei had just kicked into the room, along with the dust and debris, suddenly burst open and hurtled towards the three people at the door with lightning speed.
