Chapter 270 Open Big Cities

Three sword energies flew out from Liang Yue's blade, and the three ghosts that jumped up from the water-like shadows were all cut in half at the waist.

Just as the ghost was about to fall into the shadows, Liang Yue moved swiftly and slipped inside before it did.

He traveled to the DanMachi world, and the time he spent traveling to the Demon Slayer world was less than a year.

If it were just the anime version of the story, he could still remember some of the plot.

For example, he remembered that there was a stream of water inside the ghost's shadow.

Two ghostly figures followed him into the water, moving incredibly fast in the current.

"Is this all the speed I expected? It seems much slower than I anticipated."

Liang Yue unleashed the power of the Sword Qi of Selflessness from beneath her feet, and with a single burst of speed, she arrived in front of one of the ghosts.

The opponent's body, which had just been cut apart by the Ghostly Sword Qi, was cut apart again as soon as it was put back together.

Liang Yue's gaze swept around, then she used Water Breathing, Land Form, to twist the vortex.

After that, the entire underwater space, the vast underwater world with a diameter of over 100 meters, was stirred up by the whirlpool.

Then the crazy vortex exhibited a rotation speed like a tornado.

One of the ghosts felt his entire body collapsing.

The underwater world created by its blood demon magic is now on the verge of collapse.

Suddenly, a huge shadow with a diameter of hundreds of meters appeared on the ground outside, followed by an exaggerated vortex rushing into the sky.

The two ghosts, along with other things from the underwater world, flew into the sky and then fell back to the ground.

Two ghosts screamed in the air as they fell to the ground along with a large amount of water from high above.

At this moment, the two ghosts felt excruciating pain all over their bodies. They never expected that their Blood Demon Art could be overwhelmed and explode.

"Are you even human?"

"Water Breathing Ninth Form: Water Stream Spray - Chaos!"

Liang Yue was in mid-air, his feet moving at high speed on the falling water.

The water he stepped on splashed up a series of ripples.

In the next instant, Liang Yue transformed into a phantom, the Nichirin Blade in her hand instantly slipped down, and then sliced ​​the two demons into minced meat.

On the ground, the remaining demon was preparing to ambush Tanjiro from behind.

Unexpectedly, a foot emerged from the box on Tanjiro's back, and its immense force sent the demon flying.

"You're clearly a demon, so why are you helping humans?"

Nezuko Kamado had her mouth full of bamboo tubes, so she couldn't speak at all. She only gave a cold snort in response to the demon's question.

Then Nezuko and the others saw a waterspout suddenly erupt from the ground not far away, producing an astonishing amount of water.

Its diameter exceeded 100 meters, and its height was even more astonishing. Moreover, the rapidly spinning waterspout crashed down on the ground once more.

The torrential rain fell from the sky, its exaggerated amount of rainfall making it seem as if a giant lake had crashed down upon it.

The massive rain turned into a torrent, with giant waves exceeding ten meters in height directly engulfing everyone present.

At that moment, Liang Yue's figure instantly landed in front of Nezuko, and then she punched forward with her left fist.

"boom!"

A shockwave, visible to the naked eye, appeared in front of Liang Yue, and then the air currents suddenly spread out.

The massive flood was completely shattered by Liang Yue's fist.

Even the ghost in the middle of the stream had its body smashed into several pieces.

Nezuko, Tanjiro, and Kazumi stared wide-eyed at this extraordinary scene in disbelief.

Liang Yue, Tanjiro, and the others arrived in front of the last demon.

Tanjiro sniffed the air, then frowned at the other person. "You guys are like spoiled oil. Just how many people have you killed?"

The demon glared fiercely at Tanjiro. It had just been blasted apart by a single punch from a distance.

That guy must be a demon too, right? That's terrifying power.

"If those women continued to live, they would become ugly and unpalatable! That's why I ate them!"

Upon hearing this, Tanjiro immediately sliced ​​off the other person's tongue with his sword. "Enough! Tell me about Muzan Kibutsuji!"

Upon hearing Muzan's name, the demons were visibly more terrified.

That was something Liang Yue feared even more than facing Tanjiro!

"No, absolutely not! If I say it, I'll definitely die!"

Taking advantage of Tanjiro's momentary lapse in attention, the demon pounced on him, his body now completely healed.

However, before the demon could even get close to Tanjiro, Liang Yue had already beheaded it with his Nichirin Blade.

A series of afterimages flashed, and the ghost's entire body was instantly sliced ​​into dozens of pieces.

Tanjiro found Riko's clothes for Kazumi. "These are her belongings. I'm sorry."

"Lizi..."

Kazumi hugged the wet, tattered clothes, tears streaming down her face.

Liang Yue and the other two bid farewell to He Si and then walked into the distance.

Liang Yue knew that Muzan was an exceptionally cautious person.

Moreover, he can see the other party's various abilities from the ghost's perspective.

Therefore, the Twelve Demon Moons generally have an intelligence advantage when fighting the Demon Slayer Corps.

Therefore, Liang Yue does not intend to display power exceeding that of the Twelve Demon Moons before facing Muzan.

Nezuko crawled into Tanjiro's backpack, and Liang Yue and Tanjiro continued on their way.

…………

A corner of a certain location.

Muzan Kibutsuji is observing Liang Yue and her group from the perspective of a demon.

"Is this a new pillar? Hmph, it poses absolutely no threat!"

Although he said that, the cautious Muzan would not voluntarily reveal his whereabouts.

The strength that Liang Yue just displayed was, to put it bluntly, only at the level of the Twelve Demon Moons.

"Also, what's the deal with that earring? Just to be on the safe side, it's best not to go out for a while."

Compared to the strength Liang Yue displayed, Muzan was clearly more interested in Tanjiro's earring.

He remembered that he had killed all the users of Sun Breathing.

Why would someone else wear those earrings? Does he also possess the Breath of the Sun technique?

…………

As the sun rose, Liang Yue's peregrine falcon landed on his shoulder.

"Next is Asakusa in Tokyo Prefecture, where there are rumors of a demon lurking."

So Liang Yue and the others set off again, heading towards the direction of Asakusa.

That night, Liang Yue and her two companions arrived in Asakusa, Tokyo Prefecture.

Although it was night, the streets were brightly lit. The ground was paved with clean stone bricks, and there were even power lines running, with trams traveling on the roads.

Unlike traditional towns, this place is exceptionally prosperous.

It even shows signs of modernization.

Traditional houses are mixed with modern reinforced concrete buildings, and bright tungsten filament lamps shine on the streets.

At this time, the pedestrians were wearing Western-style hats and shirts, and they were all dressed very fashionably.

Tanjiro's eyes were practically bulging out, while Nezuko stared wide-eyed, curiously observing the city.

As for Liang Yue, she was completely immune to this kind of scenery.

Tanjiro clearly felt awkward. He tugged at Nezuko and looked at Liang Yue, "Mr. Liang Yue, shall we go this way?"

Liang Yue followed Tanjiro toward a dimly lit alley and saw a couple being intimate.

Tanjiro shouted his apologies and hurriedly led the way through the alley. Liang Yue also quickly squeezed through.

The environment here is quite open, but not as enthusiastic as the brothel district in Orario.

Thinking of the red-light district? Liang Yue immediately expanded her senses to the maximum.

If the plot remains unchanged, there is a high probability that you will encounter Muzan here.

If we can kill it here, it will save us a lot of trouble.

Moreover, because Liang Yue possesses the Extreme Demon Sword Technique Storm Style, he is not worried at all about causing a large number of innocent people to die during the process of killing Muzan.

He was even able to cut off Muzan's hand before Muzan could harm others.

Nezuko closed her eyes, seemingly catching up on sleep.

During the day, Nezuko usually stays in her cage.

At night, Tanjiro will let Nezuko out to get some fresh air.

Following Tanjiro, Liang Yue and the other two finally arrived at a bald vendor.

Liang Yue and Tanjiro each ordered a bowl of noodles, while Nezuko basically doesn't eat rice.

As for how to replenish energy, perhaps it's through sleep and photosynthesis?

Tanjiro then froze, and the noodles in his hand fell directly to the ground.

Liang Yue immediately reached out and grabbed the bowl that was about to break.

Not only the bowl, but also the soup and noodles that were about to spill were all caught steadily.

Liang Yue stood up expectantly, "What happened? Shall we go and see?"

Tanjiro's heart rate quickened. "Good! I can smell the scent of my family when they were killed."

Liang Yue immediately reached out and hoisted Tanjiro onto her shoulder. "Report your location!"

Tanjiro was stunned for a moment, then instantly understood everything.

"Go straight fifty meters!"

Liang Yue's feet touched the ground, and then her figure turned into a blur in the noodle stall owner's sight.

He tried his best to control the noise he generated during his movement and maintained a relatively high speed.

In less than a second, Liang Yue had already moved fifty meters while carrying Tanjiro.

"Go through that alley!"

Liang Yue nodded, then carried Tanjiro and flashed through the dark alley.

Afterwards, Liang Yue and her companion arrived at the crowded street.

Liang Yue carried Tanjiro and jumped. With just a slight movement, the two of them jumped directly to the top of the building, which was more than ten meters high.

"just in front!"

Liang Yue nodded, then moved at high speed again. The two then landed in front of a mother and daughter.

The woman was wearing white, while the little girl was wearing orange-red.

"Who are you?"

Tanjiro was stunned. "I clearly did it before..."

Liang Yue pulled Tanjiro away, saying, "Sorry, I mistook you for someone else."

Tanjiro was filled with shock and anger, wanting to say something but not knowing how to say it.

"Ouch! That hurts so much!"

The moment Liang Yue heard the sound, she immediately turned around and looked toward the source of the sound.

He then saw that the girl and the woman had bulging veins all over their bodies, and drops of blood were dripping onto the ground.

Its eyes turned bloodshot, its teeth became sharp and menacing, and it lunged at Liang Yue and the innocent passersby.

Tanjiro looked at Liang Yue, bewildered. "Something's not right. They were just human a moment ago!"

They haven't eaten people yet; everything can still be salvaged.

Liang Yue nodded. "I understand what you mean."

So Liang Yue started tearing off her clothes, then used her sleeves to gag the woman. Next, she pressed a scabbard against the little girl's mouth.

Tanjiro then noticed Liang Yue's pale left arm and sharp claws.

"Mr. Liang Yue, are you a ghost too?"

Tanjiro looked around angrily, "Mr. Liang Yue, Muzan must be nearby!"

Then, Tanjiro angrily roared at the surroundings, "Muzan Kibutsuji! I will never let you get away with this!"
No matter where you go, it will never happen!

I will chase you to the ends of hell to take your head! I will never forgive you!

While holding down the two women, Liang Yue was also quite busy.

Fortunately, Tanjiro came to help at this time, and the two of them together subdued the berserk mother and daughter. This situation, however, aroused the discussion of the people around them.

Three staff members in black uniforms then walked over, and Liang Yue guessed they were police officers.

"Hey, you two, let go of this mother and daughter right now."

Tanjiro continued explaining, "No, they'll bite if we let them go! Please use restraints to hold them in place."

"Get out of the way! Or I'll hit you!" The police officer held a wooden stick, about to smash it down on Tanjiro.

"If we just let them go like that, they'll die!"

Liang Yue also wanted to see if these people contaminated by the blood of ghosts could regain their sanity. It would seem like there would be an extra layer of protection when dealing with ghosts later on.

"Bewitching Blood, a fragrance that evokes visual illusions..."

One of the women, hidden in the crowd, scratched her wrist with her claws, and a strange fragrance spread around her.

The people around them seemed to be bewitched, all frozen in place.

Afterwards, many people who smelled the fragrance experienced hallucinations in which they could no longer see anything else.

A man and a woman appeared in front of Liang Yue and Tanjiro; to be precise, they should be described as master and servant.

The leading woman spoke gently, “Even those who have become ghosts, you still call them human, and you still want to help them.”

Then let me help you too.

In just a short while, the wound on the leading woman's arm had healed.

She was wearing a kimono, and her purple eyes adorned her beautiful, mature face.

Elegant, intellectual, and mature—that's how Liang Yue perceives this woman.

Her name is Zhu Shi.

"I am a demon, and also a doctor. Please come with me. I also want to kill that man, Muzan!"

So Liang Yue and the other two followed the two to Zhu Shi's residence.

…………

the other side.

Wearing a white hat, a black suit, and white trousers, Muzan Kibutsuji turned and walked into the dark alley.

"Is one of them also a ghost? But it's not one that I control. It seems I can try to subdue it."

As for the guy with that earring, he has to die. Send some of my men over to test his strength first!

In the dimly lit alley, he bumped into a drunk man.

"Hey! How do you walk?"

The drunk man looked furious.

Muzan apologized in a low voice and prepared to leave, but the other party was clearly unwilling.

"You're so pale, are you about to die?"

This remark enraged Muzan, who smashed the drunk man's head with a single punch.

It was like a watermelon that had been smashed open, shattered all over the ground.
