Chapter 67: I Don’t Want This Hot Feeling to Come to Nothing
"Clang!"
The sword skill that Tanjiro swung smoothly was stopped by the opponent lightly again, making him grit his teeth tightly, with a look of unwillingness in his eyes.
"Well!"
Nezuko stood beside him, the nails on both hands grew out, aiming at the swordsman of the Demon Slayer Squad opposite him, as if he was always going to pounce on him and scratch him.
The two brothers and sisters stood side by side, one on the left and the other on the right, facing the strongest enemy in history, their faces were full of shock and anger.
This swordsman who uses the Breath of Flame is really too powerful, so powerful that it exceeds their imagination of the strength of a breathing swordsman, and even exceeds the scope of their understanding of breathing itself.
The opponent's strength is definitely stronger than any enemy they have encountered so far.
In Tanjirou's eyes, apart from Oni Wang Wuyou whose strength is unknown, Liuxia is the most powerful among the people he has met, but in his opinion, even Liuxia may not be a match for the man in front of him.
If it wasn't for the fact that the other party didn't intend to let Nezuko go anyway, then Tanjiro might not even have a little bit of resistance.
"What the hell do you want to do!"
Tanjiro gasped heavily, trying to ease his breathing rhythm, and shouted at the other party, "I've said it many times, Nezuko is definitely not a man-eating ghost! She hasn't even eaten a single person so far." !"
"Young man! Your words lack convincing force!"
The young swordsman wearing the flame pattern on the opposite side had a blunt and serious smile on his face, and he replied loudly in a full voice: "Do you think our ghost killing team has encountered so many people who claim to have never eaten people?" Ghosts! Any ghosts, and swordsmen who hang out with ghosts, their words are unbelievable!"
"I'm willing to understand how you want to protect your sister, but our ghost killing team wants to protect other ordinary people in the same way as you!"
Tanjiro's words were dismissed without hesitation.
There was a moving force and tension in the other party's words, just a few words, revealed his unshakable will in the bottom of his heart, let Tanjiro understand that this is by no means a person who can be easily persuaded.
But at this moment, Tanjiro has nothing to do, and he and his sister are no match for this swordsman. Apart from words, there is no other way to save the situation.
It's not that he didn't try to run away with his sister, but as soon as he showed signs of this, the other party's knife would make a slash that was as hot as a flame, blocking his way, making it impossible for him and his sister to escape.
However, it was a little consoling that he didn't hit the two of them hard, but kept them here in an entangled way, not letting them leave.
"Young man! Give up your unnecessary resistance, follow me back to the headquarters of the Ghost Killing Squad, and accept the judgment of the master!"
The young man who was like a flame made a resolute speech to Tanjirou.
"Damn it... Could it be that our brothers and sisters are here? You just found Wu Mi and found a little hope..."
Tanjiro's expression became dark and inexplicable, and his eyes were full of unwillingness, "Anyway, even if it's only Nezuko alone, I will find a way to let her escape!"
Tanjiro already has plans to die with the other party.
No, based on the difference in strength between the two sides, it is estimated that it is impossible to end together. At most, he used his own life as the price to buy Nezuko a little chance to escape.
Once Nezuko is allowed to go to the base camp of the Ghost Slayer Squad, it can really be said that he is close to death. As a ghost, Nezuko enters the base camp of the Ghost Slayer Squad full of ghost hunters, and there is almost no possibility of coming out alive.
The reason why the swordsmen in the ghost killing team choose to hunt evil spirits is to follow the responsibilities of their ancestors and follow the orders of the trainers... For these reasons, the swordsmen who choose to join the ghost killing team are very few.
Most of the swordsmen, like Tanjiro, joined the Demon Slayer Squad because their family members were killed by evil spirits, and they wanted to avenge the evil spirits and kill all the ghosts in the world. Act accordingly.
Killing all evil spirits, restoring peace to the world, and making people in this world no longer be threatened by ghosts, this is the goal that the Ghost Killing Squad has always pursued.
In the eyes of the Ghost Killing Team, it doesn't matter whether Nezuko has ever eaten people. As long as she is a ghost and has the possibility of eating people, she must be eradicated.
If both of them were caught, Tanjiro would not care, but Nezuko would definitely die.
Tanjiro, who swore to absolutely protect his sister, was already prepared to protect his sister with his own life.
In his eyes, there is already the consciousness of seeing death as home.
"It's a nice look."
The next moment, as the light words came out, two huge wind blades that stirred the air like rotating paddles rushed from outside the park, attacking the back of the young swordsman who breathed in flames.
The expression on the young man's face suddenly became serious, his eyes became sharper in an instant, he directly gave up on Tanjiro and Nezuko who were in front of him, and turned around, facing the huge wind blade from the bottom up with the sun wheel sword in his hand Slash away.
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
With two clanging sounds in succession, the two blades of light swung by the young man slashed on the two wind blades almost in no particular order. Spread out.
After the attack was over, the young man turned around again and looked in Tanjirou's direction.
In less than three seconds, there was another person beside the two of them.
He was only 11 years old, holding two he-colored sun-wheel knives in his hands, his eyes were indifferent and calm, just standing there gave people a sense of sharpness like knives.
Lucia stood in front of Tanjirou and Nezuko, her eyes were shining with gold, and she was planning to protect them to the end.
"Cangmimu Liuxia, do you also want to stand by their side?"
Seeing Liu Xia protecting the Tanjirou brothers and sisters behind him, the young man's originally straightforward expression became a little headache for some reason.
"do you know me?"
Liu Xia narrowed her eyes slightly, and her golden pupils looked directly at the young man opposite.
"Of course I know, I came here just for you!"
With a hearty smile, the young man spoke to Liu Xia in a spirited manner: "However, if you stand on their side, it will give me a headache. You should know that this girl is a ghost, right? Why do you want to protect them?"
"Whether it's a ghost or not has nothing to do with me."
Liu Xia clenched the two knives in her hands, her eyes were indifferent but with a subtle persistence, "I just don't want the hot feelings between them to disappear, that's all."
