Chapter 23 - Chapter 23: Two Pillars!

This ghost killed his entire family, all his relatives. He had been searching for him for years, and now he had finally met him, but the ghost didn't know who he was.

How ironic!

"I smell a familiar scent on you."

Longli squinted and appeared in front of Lianfeng the next moment.

Longli's sudden movement startled Lianfeng, but then she realized that she couldn't move at all.

Longli's fingertip traced across her arm, and a drop of blood fell.

"I see."

Longli looked at the girl in front of him and smiled, the morbid madness in his eyes seeming to break free of its cage: "You're actually from that village!"

"you..."

At this moment, Lianfeng's body couldn't help but tremble.

What's with this feeling?!

This fear, emanating from within, felt as if the entire soul was being completely suppressed!

Please get moving!

"Interesting, very interesting."

Longli's eyes had turned blood red, and his body trembled uncontrollably with excitement.

"There are still people from that village left behind. I had forgotten about them, I almost forgot!"

He smiled and reached out to touch Lianfeng's cheek: "Thank you, Yanchuan Lianfeng."

Pfft!

His fingers pierced Lianfeng's eyes, and the next moment, Lianfeng let out a scream.

Longli licked the pus off his fingers, then said with a look of disgust, "It smells just like that guy's, it stinks."

Lianfeng could finally move, but she couldn't muster any strength at all. Her eyes had been pierced, and the intense pain made her body tremble uncontrollably.

"They're so weak, it's unbelievably weak."

Ryuji said indifferently, "He's clearly a pillar, so why is he so weak?"

"Yan Chuan Lian Feng, go to hell with that disgusting surname."

Ryuri's hand slowly descended towards Renfeng's neck. Suddenly, Renfeng's previously disordered breathing became steady, her screams ceased, and her right hand gripped the Nichirin Blade, her eyes blazing with killing intent!

"The breath of flowers, the final form, the crimson eyes of the other shore!"

Whoosh!

With lightning speed, Lianfeng rose up instantly, severing Longli's right arm. But the Nichirin Blade did not stop there, slashing towards Longli's neck with endless killing intent and hatred.

A look of surprise flashed across Longli's face: "Was your weakness just now just a deliberate act to show me? I underestimated you."

At this moment, Lianfeng gritted her teeth, her face showing no fear, only a burning rage.

She knew that the demon in front of her was very strong. Although it was only a lower moon demon, it had killed the wind pillar and the water pillar. Even she herself was no match for it!

Therefore, he knew that he only had one chance to strike, one chance to sever his neck!

She looked at the neck so close to hers and unleashed all the potential in her body. However, even though it was the last step, she couldn't sever it.

quick!

Hurry up!

Cut it off already!

She kept shouting to herself in her heart, but the Nichirin Blade in her hand felt as heavy as a thousand pounds at this moment!

Blood again!

She noticed that what was blocking her Nichirin Blade was a pool of blood!

The blood looked like it was her own!

Although it was a liquid, for some reason this blood seemed harder than steel, and it was able to block her Nichirin Blade!

"But if that's all, it's really not enough."

Longli stretched his neck; after all, he hadn't been standing still all these years.

"Blood Demon Art!"

The blood that Lianfeng had been spilling on the ground suddenly floated up and turned into tiny blood needles that aimed at her.

"Your abilities are quite good, but it's a pity you have that surname."

"Thousand Blood Needles!"

The blood needles shot towards Lianfeng in unison, but Lianfeng felt no despair or fear; her eyes were filled only with resentment.

Am I really going to collapse like this?

The ghost that killed all his relatives was right in front of him, but he couldn't defeat it!

I'm sorry, Mom and Dad, I'm so useless, I can't avenge you.

"Breath of Flame, First Form, Shiranui!"

The flaming Nichirin Blade slashed straight at Ryūri's neck. Ryūri frowned and had no choice but to dodge.

Without his control, all the blood needles turned into blood and fell to the ground.

Lianfeng's body went limp, and she knelt on the ground, panting heavily.

I survived.

She looked up, and standing in front of her was a man with hair as fiery as flames!

"Brother Purgatory".

"It's okay, I'm here."

He didn't turn around, but his voice was unusually calm, giving people an unprecedented sense of security.

Renka gritted her teeth, using her Nichirin Blade for support, and forced herself to stand up.

"Go and rest, leave this to me."

"Oh? Is there one more person?"

Ryu's gaze fell on the man who had just appeared: "What kind of pillar are you?"

He had gotten into the habit of asking what kind of Pillar the other person was before engaging in combat, because people who weren't Pillars weren't worth his time.

"You demon, listen up! I am the Flame Pillar! The Flame Pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps, Rengoku Kijuro!" Rengoku Kijuro said, "Is my identity sufficient?"

"The Flame Pillar," Ryuji pondered, "It seems that the Flame Pillar is not among the Pillars I have killed over the years."

"But unfortunately, you're lucky."

Longli looked up at the sky. Dawn was approaching. If he was dragged out until dawn and couldn't leave, he would be in big trouble.

Renka also saw through Ryūri's thoughts and hurriedly shouted, "Brother Kichijurō, he's trying to escape! Stop him!"

Without needing any prompting from Renkaze, Rengoku Kijuro had already transformed into a ball of flame and rushed out before Renkaze could even speak.

They are all people who have fought against demons for many years, so how could they not know that dawn is approaching!

Therefore, Kichijuro Rengoku knew very well that even if he couldn't defeat Ryu, as long as he could stall him until dawn, Ryu would naturally die!

"How cunning! They don't want me to leave."

The dragon smiled and said, "Blood Demon Art, Blood Domain Soaring to the Heavens!"

The overwhelming snowfield trapped the pillar of flame, instantly reducing his speed to a very, very slow level.

"Flower Breathing Sixth Form: Whirlpool Peach!"

Click!

That was the sound of a domain being attacked and about to shatter.

It was Lianfeng who attacked Longli's territory from the outside with her own attacks!

However, her attack did not directly break through the domain.

Because of that one second of delay, Longli had already put some distance between them.

Ryuu turned and glanced at the man in the distance, then said calmly, "Rengoku Kijuro, live well, and I'll personally take your life!"

Click!

The domain finally shattered, but Longli had already vanished without a trace.

"Damn it, he still managed to escape!"

"Rengoku Kijuro said through gritted teeth."

"Kichijuro, elder brother..."

A faint voice came from behind. When Rengoku Kichijuro turned around, he saw that Renka was no longer able to stand and had fallen down with her eyes closed.

"Love the Wind!"
