Hundreds of years ago, Yoriichi Tsugakuni was able to kill Muzan Kibutsuji almost instantly with the 13th Style of Sun Breathing. So now, hundreds of years later, even if I am not as good as Yoriichi Tsugakuni, what about the three times power?
The only question is whether I can achieve that level.
"quack."
"Silly bird, you're here."
There was a sound of breaking through the air, and a pitch-black crow landed on Li Mo's shoulder. This crow was not always by his side, but disappeared frequently, and every time it came back, it would bring a mission or news.
"The Lord is looking for you."
"is it?"
He touched Chanel's head. There was no response, so Li Mo left.
Chapter 239 I'm Not Your Attachment
The Butterfly House is bustling with people, and injured Demon Slayer swordsmen come here every day.
The battles between swordsmen and ghosts continued, and every night there was always a place where a battle between swordsmen and ghosts broke out. Compared to ghosts who can heal quickly, human swordsmen do not have such ability.
When humans are injured, they need to find a doctor.
Butterfly House is a good choice.
The Butterfly Sisters' private conversation finally ended. At Kanzaki Aoi's request, the two sisters walked out of the room and began to treat various diseases. Both of them were mature doctors. If they encountered symptoms that were really difficult to treat, they would send them to the underground.
There was a physician there with hundreds of years of experience.
The cooperation with Ms. Tamayo is undoubtedly the most cost-effective cooperation of the Demon Slayer Corps in recent years. With her help, the Demon Slayer Corps' research on demons has risen to a higher level, and her medical skills can also solve many difficult and complicated diseases.
The Butterfly sisters’ medical skills are already very advanced, but they are still just students in front of Tamayo.
It was noon, and the sisters finally had some free time. As the elder sister, Butterfly Kanae came to Li Mo with her lunch box.
"You've been sitting in this small courtyard with Kanao all morning. Are you concerned about Kanao? Here, Li-san, your lunch box." Butterfly Kanao handed the lunch box to Li Mo, "This is what Shinobu cooked."
"How about I arrange a marriage for Chanel?" Li Mo took the lunch box and said.
"Eh——? Li-san, aren't you thinking too far? Kanao is still so young, and we, as the elder sisters, haven't gotten married yet."
Butterfly Chanahui was stunned for a moment, and then spoke. This was undoubtedly a refusal at home.
Li Mo said: "After dealing with Muzan, I will take you to see the child. Believe me, if it is that child, it can change Kanao."
Kanao Kurihana was not in this small corner now. She was called to the cafeteria by Shinobu Kocho. In the entire Butterfly House, perhaps only these two people were special.
"Do you admire that kid so much? We'll talk about it when the time comes."
Butterfly Kanae showed a doting smile, agreeing to Li Mo's request.
Tanjiro, my dear nephew. As your uncle, I have secured such a plan for you. Whether it can be accomplished depends on your performance.
As an uncle, I have done my best.
"Li-san. You are going to see the lord next, right?"
"Yes. Is there anything you want to say, Kanae?"
"Hmm... I feel like the lord is going to call an emergency meeting of the pillars."
Butterfly Kanae's words caught Li Mo's attention.
The Zhuhe meeting is held twice a year. Once in winter and once in summer. Now, spring has just passed, and there is still some time before the summer Zhuhe meeting.
urgent……
During the year that Li Mo was in office, he had never experienced such a meeting.
Kocho Kanae continued, "Mr. Li, when you go to see the lord, you must be proposing to eliminate Muzan. The lord has been waiting for this moment for a long time."
"makes sense."
Since the general policy of defeating Muzan Kibutsuji must be determined in this generation, the top fighting force of the Demon Slayer Corps, the Pillars, must naturally determine their own tasks.
As expected, I had used all my brain to explore the possibility of combining Sun Breathing and Swallow Return. I couldn't even think of such a superficial truth!
Li Mo shook his head and said, "Compared to three years ago, there are a lot more pillars now."
Back in the day, the Demon Slayer Corps only had three pillars. Now, including me, there are eight. Of course, there is one less than in the comics.
But I alone am enough to match several pillars.
"Kanae-san, is there anything you want to say?"
"When you leave later, can you please not go see Shinobu?"
"why?"
"This is my request."
Strange, what did the sisters say? Can't I even go say goodbye to Xiaonin?
If I hadn't wanted to say I was leaving in person, why would I have waited until now?
Doubts arose in his heart. Li Mo began to regret why he did not arrange the shikigami in the room at that time to eavesdrop on what the two sisters were talking about.
"I see."
Li Mo reached out and took the rice grains from the corner of Butterfly Kanae's mouth.
"Actually, I don't want to leave."
"Mr. Li, our relationship can only be considered an engaged couple. According to Western terms, we are just boyfriend and girlfriend." Butterfly Kanae said, "You are not handsome at all for being so stubborn."
"I thought your next sentence would be that I failed. You would ruthlessly throw me away."
"How could that be? I can't bear to do that." Butterfly Kanae smiled with her head tilted.
The blue butterfly hairpin on her bun swayed along with it.
Li Mo lowered his head, and immediately grasped the chopsticks with his palm that had the remaining warmth from the other person's cheek.
He said, “Yes, so I can’t bear to leave.”
"Okay, stop teasing me. Li-san, you can leave after lunch. By the way, you still have to stay for the evaluation of lunch. Shinobu is looking forward to it."
Butterfly Kanae said.
The gentle voice is the same as always. The girl named Kocho Kanae is a typical Yamato Nadeshiko type girl, gentle, considerate, and able to handle housework in an orderly manner. Her body is like made of water, and the tenderness of several nights of lingering is still vivid in my mind.
If it weren't for the blood of "Bai Chen" in his body, he might not be able to bear it.
Li Mo lowered his eyebrows and said, "I always feel that Chana Hui-san is chasing me away."
"I didn't!"
No matter what Kocho Kanae thought, he would set off after lunch. As the former master, he knew where the master lived and did not need Yin to lead the way.
After leaving the comment "delicious", Li Mo got up and hurried on his way.
Kouhou Kanae hummed a little tune, and looked very happy as she packed up her lunch box after dinner and walked into the house. She sent the things in her hands to the kitchen, and someone would come to clean them later.
She immediately found her sister.
"Shinobu, Li-san said the food is delicious."
"Oh."
Kocho Shinobu had a blank expression on her face. She seemed to not care about Mr. Li's comments at all. Was that really the case? Kocho Kanae, who had keen observation skills, saw some clues from her sister's relaxed muscles.
As expected, you still care a lot~~~
Kocho Kanae was not going to provoke her sister, and said with a serious face: "Shinobu, follow the time. I estimate that Makomo-chan will arrive at the Butterfly House at 10 o'clock in the evening. Then we will act according to the plan and hide Li-san's existence."
At this moment, Shinobu Kocho suddenly felt that her sister and Li Sang were a perfect match, and their bad tastes were exactly the same.
"Sister, this is all for Shinobu's sake. This way you'll have more time to take the initiative!"
"Sister, he is my brother-in-law."
"But isn't the sister-in-law half of the brother-in-law's butt?"
Butterfly Shinobu failed to keep her composure, the corners of her mouth twitched involuntarily, and the veins on her forehead seemed to be popping out.
This is the second time I heard this sentence today, and I am still very unhappy!
I'm not your appendage, sister!
Chapter 240: Children of the Ubuyashiki
The whereabouts of the Lord have always been kept secret. In the past, a member of the Demon Slayer Corps fell into the demon world. It almost brought disaster to the entire Demon Slayer Corps. Since then, confidentiality measures have been implemented.
Apart from the pillars, other people who want to see the lord need a member of the "Hidden" to lead the way. And they have to change people every time they pass a certain distance. The closer the "Hidden" is to the lord, the more trustworthy they are.
"Someone seems to be passing by?"
"No one? Could it be a gust of wind? To be on the safe side, let's check if the mechanism has been activated."
The level of vigilance remains as high as ever.
There are guards around the lord's house, most of whom are "Hidden". In fact, the Demon Slayer Corps has thought about arranging swordsmen to guard the lord, but the lord refused.
Every swordsman is a valuable fighting force, and precious fighting force cannot be wasted on protecting oneself.
But there were some surprises.
Li Mo still remembers the first time he saw him. It was on the eve of the "Final Selection". He met his lord on Fujiki Mountain. At that time, he was standing beside him on the rock pillar, and the sad sound of the island was on the horizon.
He didn't think he had caused trouble for the security guards. He would send someone out to inform them later. There were many familiar faces among them. The death rate of the hidden was far lower than that of the swordsmen. Three years was not enough to replace the next batch.
is a good thing.
The lord's residence is a standard Japanese-style courtyard. Li Mo's favorite is the courtyard here, where the rushing stream flows into the small pond, and listening to the sound of the flowing water is peaceful enough.
Li Mo settled down in the courtyard, and almost no one could find him along the way.
If you don’t even dare to be a human being, then wouldn’t it be a waste of your life if you still can’t do this?
He turned his head and saw five children in the courtyard. Their eyes were all focused on Li Mo.
And they're all "girls?"
No, the youngest one should be a boy.
