Chapter 104 He was once a king, then Yoriichi Tsugikuni arrived.

"Quite the opposite!"

Looking at the various expressions on the faces of the people in front of him, Su Yan quietly raised one index finger and shook it.

In his view, becoming a ghost is actually a very low-level thing.

Because apart from increased lifespan, there are almost no significant benefits.

Leaving aside the two drawbacks of not being able to look directly at the sun and having to eat people to become stronger.

In terms of growth potential alone, it is not even as good as the vampire transformed by the Stone Mask in JOJ0.

At least the vampires in JOJ0 could eventually evolve into Kars, who were not afraid of sunlight and could freely evolve life.

Even a perfect J0-class organism that can continue to sustain life even after being exiled to space.

As for the man-eating demons in Demon Slayer.

Su Yan's assessment was: "I've finished."

Even if the weakness of sunlight can be overcome by relying on the blue spider lily, and a drug can be developed to remove the weakness of having an appetite for human flesh.

Su Yan still doesn't prioritize the option of transforming into a man-eating ghost to extend his lifespan.

Let's put it this way: in the Demon Slayer world, apart from Muzan, the progenitor of all demons...

Of the three strongest Upper Moons, only Upper Moon Two, Doma, relied entirely on the Blood Demon Art he acquired after becoming a demon.

The other two, Upper Moon One Kokushibo, relied on the Moon Breathing technique he learned during his human days.

Akaza, the Upper Moon Three, also relied on the martial arts he learned in his human days, but he perfectly combined them with Blood Demon Arts and continued to improve them over the hundreds of years he became a demon.

It could even be said that he was using his body to practice a breathing technique that was unique to Akaza.

Most importantly, look at the subordinates who were turned into demons by Muzan. Apart from Daki, the Upper Moon Six, they all look almost like aberrant beings.

Even the female protagonist, Nezuko, couldn't escape growing a bony horn on her head and developing crack-like patterns on her face after becoming a demon.

Su Yan said calmly, "My second request is very simple. I hope the Demon Slayer Corps can spread the information I shared about the Blue Spider Lily."

"What?"

Everyone was shocked upon hearing this, their faces showing complete disbelief.

Shinobu Kocho immediately asked, puzzled, "Why?"

Shinobu Kocho witnessed her loved ones die before her eyes twice.

One time, when I was a child, I was at home with my older sister, Kanae Kocho, when our parents were killed and eaten by an intruding demon.

If Gyomei Himejima, the Stone Pillar, hadn't arrived in time, the two sisters would have been eaten by the demons as well.

The second time was when the older sister, Kanae Kocho, encountered the waxing moon Doma alone. She was no match for him, and Doma eventually escaped after dawn. Later, her beloved older sister died in her arms.

After experiencing the tragic deaths of these two close relatives, Shinobu Kocho began to wear a fake smile that imitated her older sister, Kanae Kocho, and always presented a smiling face to others.

Beneath that fake smile lay an unforgivable rage against the evil spirit.

If Su Yan's answer just now really was that he wanted the Demon Slayer Corps to find the so-called Blue Spider Lily for him and become the kind of evil spirit he hated the most.

Even if the other person may have actually had a relationship with his sister in the past.

She will never forgive Su Yan.

However, what Shinobu Kocho couldn't understand was why Su Yan wanted the Demon Slayer Corps to spread such an important message about the Blue Spider Lily.

If Muzan Kibu knew this and helped him overcome his weakness to sunlight, wouldn't he become even more difficult to deal with?

"Shinobu, I have a question for you."

Su Yan smiled at Butterfly and said softly, "In the thousand years since Muzan Kibutsuji became an enemy, besides those who were transformed into demons and Yoriichi Tsugikuni who almost killed Muzan during the Warring States period, has anyone else seen Muzan?"

"this----"

Shinobu Kocho was speechless.

Yes, the Demon Slayer Corps has always aimed to hunt down Muzan.

However, including Kagaya Ubuyashiki, the leader of the Demon Slayer Corps, none of them had ever seen Muzan, and they didn't even know what he looked like.

It has to be said that this is an extremely ironic thing.

Su Yan said with a smile, "In your eyes, Muzan Kibutsuji is a very terrifying nemesis. In the thousand years that he has been at odds with the Demon Slayer Corps, the demons he has transformed into alone have made it difficult for your Demon Slayer Corps to deal with them."

"But in my eyes, Muzan Kibutsuji is just a coward with all his strength."

"You may not know this, but Muzan Kibutsuji has twelve incurable scars on his body. These were left by Yoriichi Tsugikuni using the twelve sword forms of Sun Breathing four hundred years ago."

"These correspond to the twelve weaknesses within Muzan's body: his five brains and seven hearts."

"It was precisely because of that encounter with Yoriichi Tsugikuni that nearly killed Muzan, which completely changed his arrogant personality and made him cowardly from then on."

"So much so that after that, until Yoriichi Tsugikuni died of old age, Muzan never appeared before the world again."

"And for hundreds of years after Yoriichi Tsugikuni's death, Muzan continuously sent people to kill swordsmen who had mastered the Breath of the Sun, in an attempt to erase the traces left by Yoriichi Tsugikuni in this world."

"In the end, even though he knew that Yoriichi Tsugikuni was dead and that the Breath of the Sun he created was almost extinct, he still remained hidden behind the scenes."

"They avoid the Demon Slayer Corps like the plague."

"I'm just afraid that one day another person like Yoriichi Tsugikuni will appear in the Demon Slayer Corps, even if the possibility is extremely low, or even so low that it is almost impossible."

"But Muzan never dared to take the gamble."

At this point, Su Yan paused, then asked everyone present another question: "Do you know why, in the hundreds of years since the Breathing Technique was created, some Lower Moon demons have died at the hands of the Demon Slayer Corps?"

Why?

Midouzi listened with great interest to the story Su Yan told, and when Su Yan asked the question, her bright eyes sparkled with curiosity.

Su Yan patted Nezuko's head and explained with a smile, "Because Muzan Kibutsuji is too cowardly. He's so cowardly that he doesn't allow the Twelve Demon Moons to gather together in private, fearing that they might unite and betray him."

"That's why the Demon Slayer Corps had the opportunity to defeat the Lower Rank Demons one by one."

"ah?!"

Ni Douzi opened his mouth wide, blinked, and his face was full of disbelief.

He immediately exclaimed, "This—this is the Ghost King, known as the progenitor of evil spirits? He seems so stupid to me."

"They're afraid of this and that, and they've been foolishly searching for the Blue Spider Lily for thousands of years, only to find that they don't even know anything about it."

It has to be said that Su Yan's words completely shattered the mystery surrounding the Demon Slayer Corps members regarding the Demon King, Muzan Kibutsuji.

Even knowing that the opponent's power is beyond their ability to defeat.

But for some reason, he felt a sense of superiority over Muzan.

There's a feeling that Muzan is nothing special, and I could do it too.

"But----"

Despite this, Shinobu Kocho still couldn't understand why Su Yan would reveal the information about the Blue Spider Lily.

Why not just let Muzan Kibutsuji remain a clown who is searching for the blue spider lily, a flower he can never find?

"It seems you still don't understand what I mean, Shinobu."

Su Yan shook his head and said with some disappointment, "Just like I said, Muzan is a complete coward."

"If we don't use the information about the Blue Spider Lily as bait, he will never show up in front of the Demon Slayer Corps even if it takes hundreds of years."

This is absolutely beyond doubt.

In the Infinity Castle arc, if Muzan hadn't known that Nezuko, now a demon, had successfully overcome sunlight, and if Kagaya Ubuyashiki hadn't intentionally revealed the location of the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters to her, he wouldn't have been able to achieve such a feat.

It was impossible for Muzan to go to the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters to meet Ubuyashiki Kagaya, who had planted a large amount of explosives underground.

The Demon Slayer Corps also did not have the opportunity to directly confront Muzan and engage in a decisive battle in the Infinity Castle.

If it weren't for Tanjiro's exceptionally sensitive nose, which detected Muzan's scent in the bustling city, Muzan could have remained hidden indefinitely.

"Or are you trying to find Muzan like searching for a needle in a haystack in a vast sea of ​​people?"

Su Yan said calmly, "Even if your Demon Slayer Corps has this kind of patience, I don't!"
