Koinatsu quickly turned her head and saw the other party revealing a ferocious smile, "Oh, Koinatsu, I heard you're leaving, then I'll have to eat you before you go."

"Warabihime?" Li Xia looked surprised.

At this Warabihime was completely different from usual. Not only was her clothing much more revealing, but vigorous characters also appeared in her eyes.

Upper Rank, Six!

Yukino immediately stepped in front of Koinatsu: "Are you going to hurt her?"

"Hehe, kid, are you going to protect her? Judging from your appearance, you must be Demon Slayer Corps, too bad you're not a Pillar. But it doesn't matter, such a pure and beautiful girl must taste really good. I'd rather give up Koinatsu than not merge with you." She licked her lips, looking very eager.

"Then I'm sorry, but judging from your attitude, you look down on people outside the pillars, don't you?"

"Of course, I don't care about anyone who isn't a Pillar." The other person's disdainful gaze was clear, and they also looked down on Yukino's strength.

However, the next moment, the petite body suddenly pulled in and punched Warabihime hard, blasting her out of the house and crashing into a house across the street.

"Sorry, but the strongest are often those who aren't killed by the Pillars."

Yukino doesn't have Nichirin Blade, but she does have a weapon that Su Lin usually forges and strengthens to counter Oni.

At that moment, a weapon with [Sharpness +16], [Demon-Slaying +5], [Fire Damage +2], [Frost Damage +1], [Pain +2], [Slicing +2], [Severing +1], and various other stealth effects appeared in Yukino's hand. She instantly approached Daki and stabbed her in the abdomen.

"Ah--"

Screams echoed throughout the entire street.

"Your breasts are really big. I don't know why, maybe it's because I've been looked down upon too much, but I'm really annoyed right now!" Yukino said through gritted teeth.

Every time she used this clone, she would be subjected to disdainful stares from time to time. She remembered the disappointed looks from countless men and the gloating expressions from girls. How pathetic! Her breasts were even less impressive than those of a slightly overweight man; they didn't even match an A cup!

"Impossible, you bastard."

The woman, Warabihime... no, whose real name was Daki Ji, covered her wound, which was healing much slower, and quickly retreated backward.

Su Lin's weapon was clearly less damaging than the Nichirin Blade, but the Nichirin Blade could still recover quickly after being hit. However, his weapon... had a clear restraining effect.

"Prepare to die."

The woman's voice was sharp and terrifying.

Countless ribbons shot out, each capable of easily splitting houses and snapping trees.

However, as some of them were on their way, another, even smaller girl appeared in mid-air.

Black hair, black clothes, black skirt, black stockings... dressed entirely in black, holding an even more terrifying and eerie weapon in her hand, she easily cut through the ribbon that seemed to have a life of its own.

His strength is actually higher than Yukino's, although his physical attributes are far inferior to Yukino's.

"So strong, it's clearly not a pillar."

Too young, at most a teenage girl, yet she possesses such terrifying power. Any one of them could easily challenge the Upper Rank Moon.

Daki's anger goes without saying, but unfortunately, she didn't have much time to react. Left with no other choice, she directly used the Blood Demon Art.

"Blood Demon Art, Eight-Layered Obi Slash!"

With the ability to easily cut through several houses at once, these strips formed a network and attacked Yukino and Kurotama simultaneously.

However, she still underestimated the strength of her opponent.

"Upper Rank Six is still Upper Rank Six. No matter what, it's far inferior to Upper Moon Three. Besides... isn't the real powerhouse inside you?"

With a single slash, Kurotama cut the ribbon and aimed her weapon at the opponent's neck.

"Impossible, you can cut my neck?"

When the knife isn't stuck, it often unleashes tremendous potential in life-or-death situations.

As Daki tried to retreat, she noticed that Kurotama was still grinning maliciously in front of her. His face was beautiful but filled with murderous intent, which made her feel terrified.

Tanjiro rushed up at that moment.

"Dance of the Fire God, Burning Bones, Summer Sun!"

I have to admit, his moves were truly spectacular with amazing special effects.

In fact, Tanjiro went to Rengoku's house some time ago on Rengoku's instructions and found out the possible truth about Dance of the Fire God. This technique is very likely the ancestor of all Breathing Style - Sun Breathing.

He was unaware that it was the final move of the Sun Breathing that nearly killed Muzan, which caused Muzan to feel immense fear and hatred towards those associated with him.

The person wearing that pendant on their ear is most likely a descendant of the Sun Breathing, and also someone Muzan wants to eliminate.

"Impossible, Muzan- sama's cells are filled with fear."

Tanjiro emanated an aura that terrified even demons.

Surrounded by three forces, Tanjiro may be afraid, but in terms of strength, he is indeed the weakest.

An angry Nezuko also tried to help, but Yukino quickly moved in and carried them away, one in each hand.

"I've already killed Upper Rank Three, why would I need you guys to kill Upper Rank Six? Don't gamble with your lives."

Tanjiro paused for a moment, then finally nodded and relaxed his grip on his weapon.

Currently, only the Kurotama is fighting the opponent one-on-one, and in a head-on confrontation, the demon is at a disadvantage. Every time the little girl swings her sword, a crisp clanging sound comes from the ribbon. And if the spot she cuts is even slightly weak, the ribbon will snap instantly.

Honestly, it's terrifying.

Since Daki became a demon, she has never encountered a battle like this.

She killed many pillars, but none could compare to the one before her.

"You've been hiding your true strength?"

It's more accurate to say they showed mercy.

"To force out the real Upper Rank Six inside you." Kurotama didn't care at all and slashed at the other's neck again.

Having been forced into this situation, Daki knew there was no other way.

Because the enemy's sword was too powerful and their technique was flawless, it was impossible to withstand it.

"So, you're too weak." Kurotama easily slashed at her for the tenth time.

"Ahhh, no, no, I am Upper Rank Six, I am the real Upper Rank Six." Daki couldn't accept this lack of recognition, and she became increasingly frantic.

As the pitch rose, a male demon with an even more terrifying aura and murderous intent crawled out from Daki's body.

"Don't be afraid," the male ghost said in a gentle voice. "I've seen all your battles. This enemy is very strong, so it's perfectly normal that you can't defeat them. Now, let's... kill these dangerous people together."

After saying that, he raised his head and looked angrily at the people in front of him.

Chapter 163 The Blade Falls to Upper Rank Six

Of course, his attention was mainly on Kurotama and Yukino.

In terms of threat, these two girls are even more dangerous than the Pillars. At least a Pillar could decapitate one of the two demons without causing their death. However, Yukino and Kurotama's weapons are constantly affecting their recovery.

It can be said that if they were to be chopped off with hundreds or thousands of blows, even if the two ghosts didn't lose their heads, they would be half-dead.

"Waaaaah!" The usually ruthless Daki suddenly cried like a child, sobbing pitifully, "Brother, I'm so pitiful! They all bully me! I tried so hard, but I still get bullied! Waaaaah!"

"Grass."

Is this dramatic performance genuine or just an act of feigning distress?

Perhaps it was a genuine expression of emotion, but Upper Rank Six and his sister both have pitiful pasts. Having relied on each other for so long, their deep bond is self-evident.

Kurotama grasped Yatsufusa and summoned Akaza.

Do you know him?

"What?"

The brother and sister in front of him were stunned.

"Upper Rank Three? Impossible! How could he be here?"

When Akaza died, Muzan was extremely enraged and had already begun considering sending demons to retaliate. However, because he didn't know who had killed the Upper Rank Three, Muzan hesitated to decide on a specific plan.

But at that time, all the Upper Rank Demon were summoned to the Infinity Castle.

Muzan's voice was hoarse and desperate, making every Upper Rank except for Doma feel their hearts pound.

And now, Akaza has appeared before me.

"Muzan is a monster, but unfortunately, monsters can't control their subordinates because... poor Akaza has already been killed by me and turned into a puppet."

Kurotama revealed snow-white teeth, and a strange smile filled her cute little face.

"Impossible! How could you control a demon? That's Muzan's..."

"Muzan's cells, or Muzan's blood?" Before Daki could finish speaking, Kurotama shook her head and said, "Pathetic fellow, Gyutaro, right? You will become my puppets in the future. When the time comes and I have gathered six demons, Muzan will understand what it feels like to be surrounded by his most trusted subordinates."

Muzan was wary of his subordinates remained unclear to Su Lin until his transmigration. This was partly because the manga was far from finished at that time, and partly because his memories were hazy. However, the story did mention this, so she assumed that possibility existed.

However you look at it, Muzan's sins were too great. This guy was simply born evil. What's even more frustrating is that his evil deeds did not bring disaster upon himself, but instead left a curse on his own family, causing his clansmen to not live past the age of thirty.

That is, the Ubuyashiki family to which the Oyakata-sama belongs.

Su Lin always believed that his Oyakata-sama's "illness" was curable, and even thought that Nightingale's abilities would suffice.

But upon closer reflection, since it was a curse, there was no guarantee that the treatment wouldn't lead to worse results, so he was particularly conflicted and never dared to try it.

The thought of Ubuyashiki Kagaya sacrificing his life to kill Muzan made Su Lin even more annoyed.

At this moment, the Upper Rank Six siblings were extremely agitated. The person who could kill the even stronger Upper Rank Three was right in front of them and had easily controlled Upper Rank Three. He was simply a monster.

Even if the brother and sister were of one mind and body, and their necks had to be cut off at the same time to die, they still couldn't withstand fighting so many powerful enemies at the same time.

"Aaaaah, go to hell!"

Gyutaro's mind was in complete turmoil. He didn't even think about anything else and launched an attack directly at Kurotama.

Its speed is so fast that even Sound Pillar can be instantly killed if one is not fully focused.

However... Upper Rank Six discovered that Kurotama was even faster.

Clang—

The weapons collided in mid-air.

Gyutaro's hands went numb instantly, and then one of the knives slipped from his grasp.

"So fast."

Because of its speed, it produced an extremely strong effect despite seemingly having little strength.

To be able to keep up with his speed... no, to be able to surpass his speed, is the girl opposite really the real monster?

How can a human body surpass that of a demon?

Not to mention, this little girl, unlike him, has undergone such a long period of tempering and is only in her teens.

"I always felt that you feared Muzan more than you respected him." Kurotama appeared to Gyutaro's right side with a smile, and with a slight twist of her wrist, Yatsufusa turned around and delivered a kidney strike to him.

The blade cut into flesh, and the pain made the other person frown.

"Ahhhh, you're wrong. I have complete respect for Muzan."

Physical harm is far more stimulating than verbal sarcasm. The girl before him showed no fear of Muzan; she seemed to be toying with him, as if she wanted to manipulate Upper Rank Six at will.

What made Gyutaro even more unbearable was that the girl in front of him was too beautiful.

He was so ugly that he was jealous of this girl, extremely jealous.

I shouldn't be jealous of a girl.

"Why, why are you so beautiful? It hurts me so much."

But...

He was always the one who got crushed.

"I know your past." Kurotama revealed a devilish grin. "A pitiful brother and sister, who went down a path of no return just to protect their sister, only to have everything taken from them in the end. Your sister's name was Mei, wasn't it?"

Gyutaro's pupils contracted for a moment, and because of that instantaneous pause, the knife was already aimed at his neck.

"You were born ugly, cursed by wicked people since childhood, had nothing, and never asked for anything. It wasn't until your young and beautiful sister was born that you found a sliver of motivation to live. But... those cruel people even took away this little bit of beauty."

Every demon has its own story, and Gyutaro and his sister's is undoubtedly the most tragic. Their ultimate fate made them unable to trust anyone; if Muzan hadn't turned them into demons, the sister would have died, and the brother would have lost everything.

So in the end, they no longer trusted anyone but each other, the siblings.

Their dark past gradually turned them into brutal beings.

Perhaps if someone else had experienced this kind of life, they would hate this world even more?
