"But Lord Tianyuan, he is right. If we don't catch up as soon as possible, many people will be hurt..." Shixu whispered from the side.

"Don't worry, it's useless if it escapes. Xuanhao and the others are up there." Yusui Tianyuan was not too worried. It should be said that there was no point in worrying.

He had already asked Young He to evacuate the crowd. After all, he was hunting a ghost. The war had begun. Night was the ghost's home field after all. The battlefield was the entire city of Youguo. Casualties were inevitable.

Just think of ways to reduce losses.

And no one knows how many ghosts are lurking here.

"Makio, you and Suma go to help Hinazuru evacuate the crowd. You are not allowed to join the next battle."

After saying that, Yusui Tianyuan picked up his two wives one by one and jumped up.

"Hey Hey hey!"

Looking at Usui Tengen who was flying straight up into the night sky, Inosuke raised the Nichirin Sword and shouted, "Don't leave me!"

"I'm going to start a grand riot, and I don't have time to care about you! Follow me, Pighead!"

Yusui Tianyuan didn't even look back. After landing, he put his two wives down and disappeared instantly.

"So fast!?"

Inosuke's eyes were full of surprise as he chased him to the ground. Only then did he realize that he couldn't catch up with Yusui Tianyuan if he really moved!

Sure enough, these guys called pillars are very secretive. I still underestimated them before.

"Damn it, wait for me!?"

Inosuke stomped his feet in anger.

······

On the other side, the battle between Fallen Princess and Tanjiro continues.

But rather than saying that it was a fight, it was better to say that Tanjiro was chasing the fallen princess.

The cunning Fallen Princess used buildings to cleverly avoid Tanjiro's pursuit, and from time to time would attack the humans she encountered in the house to delay Tanjiro's pace.

Faced with such a shameless attack, Tanjiro could only be forced to consume his physical strength.

However, at a certain moment, Feng Ji, who had been avoiding Tanjiro's pursuit, suddenly stopped.

The night sky is still deep black. It is the dark moon and the wind is high at this moment, and it is still early before dawn.

The Fallen Princess broke through the ceiling and ran to the roof, standing on the eaves with a gloomy expression.

Tanjiro, who was chasing after him, also stopped.

"what's the situation?"

He was a little confused, "Aren't you going to hide?"

"Stupid human being, you don't really think I'm afraid of you, do you?"

Fallen Princess looked at the horizon with disdain, looking down at Tanjiro who was parked not far from her.

Although she was being chased all the time, it didn't seem to hinder her arrogant attitude at the moment.

"No, it doesn't matter whether you are afraid of me or not."

Tanjiro looked serious, "I won't let you go no matter what. It's best if you don't run away!"

He tightened his grip on the Nichirin Sword and prepared to attack again.

After the chase just now, he had a certain understanding of the strength of the ghost in front of him.

Although the word "Shangxian" is indeed engraved in the pupils, this ghost is far from the "Shangxian San" I met before.

According to Tanjiro's estimation, if it were Hashira, he might be able to kill the ghost in front of him easily. After all, he felt that even he, who was not Hashira, could easily suppress him. As long as the opponent didn't run away, he was absolutely sure to kill him alone.

However, just when he was about to approach again with his knife, several howling winds suddenly came from a distance.

No, it's not the wind. If you look closely, you can see that it's a ferocious belt flying in the direction of Fouhime. By the time Tanjiro reacts, it has already penetrated into Fouhime's body.

"This is……"

Tanjiro became more vigilant.

The aura of Fallen Princess began to change, the number of belts protruding from her back became more, and her long black hair became pale. Perhaps this was her complete appearance.

As these separated body parts returned, a smell that made Tanjiro feel numb deep in his throat emanated from Feng Ji.

"Pillar?"

Fallen Princess murmured to herself after merging back into the belt of her body, "It's a bit troublesome, there are too many people coming."

With the return of the belt, everything that the belt had experienced also appeared in her mind. She felt that the man who chopped the belt into pieces was the 'pillar', and if nothing else happened, he was stronger than the boy in front of her.

The current situation is very unfavorable for her, and she will be in danger if she waits for these ghost hunters to converge.

"Sorry, kid, the game is over."

Fallen Princess looked down at Tanjiro, her gaze becoming extremely dangerous.

"What……"

Tanjiro didn't understand what the other person was saying at all.

Although his momentum is indeed much stronger than before, he has not used all his strength yet, and the outcome is still uncertain if he continues to fight. Why does this ghost talk as if the outcome is already decided?

Soon he understood why.

Fallen Girl's eyes were filled with sarcasm, and she gently raised her hand.

As she waved her arms, the belt around her waist extended, cutting diagonally in front of her like a giant sword.

A sharp trajectory flashed past, and the top of the attic not far in front of her was completely cut off.

"boom--"

The bricks and tiles slowly fell along the cut surface, making a loud noise.

Tanjiro couldn't help but look at the scene revealed in the attic, and then his face instantly turned pale.

"mean!"

At this moment, Tanjiro finally discovered that it turned out that Feng Ji's blind escape was not without purpose.

Fallen Princess, who has been lurking here for a long time, naturally knows the terrain here very well, even knowing whose room is where.

At this moment, the top of the attic was completely cut open, and Tanjiro could clearly see the three five humans hugging each other and shivering inside.

It was Li Xia, the oiran, and the two little girls who were responsible for her daily life.

Their faces were full of fear and shock when they saw this sudden change. Anyone who found out that the roof of the room they were in was lifted off would probably have this look on their faces, not to mention that the attack just now almost cut off the three of them.

Fallen Princess obviously did it on purpose.

"It's not just them."

Fallen Princess' gaze became extremely dangerous. As she spoke, the belt behind her began to extend, almost covering the entire street.

"I'm stronger now than before, and I can control more belts. Can you handle it?"

Tanjiro began to sweat profusely.

Of course he could understand what Fallen Princess wanted to do.

As long as she has a thought, these extremely sharp belts will cut all the nearby houses into rubble like tofu.

Tanjiro didn't know how many people were among them, but he only knew that if Fenghime really did this, there would be heavy casualties.

Even if he tried his best, he couldn't protect everyone.

"Foolish person, don't you want to save them?"

Fallen Ji raised her hand contemptuously, her eyes full of cold light, "Then let me see how many people you can save!?"

The words fell.

The belt behind her became blurry in an instant, so fast that the trajectory was almost unclear.

Tanjiro can see clearly.

But...he couldn't stop these belts from attacking in different places at the same time.

The next moment, criss-crossing cracks appeared on the entire street.

"Danger!"

With no time to think, Tanjiro could only choose to save the person in front of him first.

One of the slashes was directed at the three people exposed in the attic.

Faced with such a slashing blow, a flesh-and-blood body has no other option but to be cut in half.

"Oh, it turns out that's all you have."

Fallen Princess looked disappointedly at Tanjiro who was standing in front of the three girls, with a bored look on his face.

The human beings in front of us are indeed very strong, but unfortunately they are still like the pillars we met before, failing for some unknown 'responsibility'.

Why bother? In her opinion, isn't it good for ugly things to just turn into corpses and rot!?
