Chapter 5 Ganlu Temple Mili
Chapter 5 Ganlu Temple Mili
"Bang! Bang! Bang!..."
Gunshots rang out, and Rengoku Kyojuro used his agile movements to dodge the barrage of gunfire and occasionally deflect incoming stray bullets.
"Hahaha, times have changed! No matter how skilled you are with a sword, you can't stop firearms!"
Seeing Rengoku Kyojuro constantly jumping and dodging bullets, Pero burst into laughter again.
He seemed very happy and thoroughly enjoying it.
At that moment, the trajectory of the bullets was about to sweep towards a mother and child in the distance.
"not good!"
Kyojuro Rengoku inwardly cried out in alarm, but he was too far away to catch up with the mother and child.
At that moment, Kanroji Mitsuri, who was closest to the mother and child, stepped forward without hesitation.
Taking a deep breath and gripping her Nichirin Blade tightly, Kanroji Mitsuri's blade instantly turned cherry red.
"Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang..."
The crisp sound of a bullet being cut rang out.
Kanroji Mitsuri deflected the incoming bullets one by one, successfully protecting the mother and child behind her.
"Hmph, so what if you managed to block it? Well then!"
As he spoke, the Gatling gun that had been aimed at Kyojuro Rengoku suddenly changed direction!
"Damn it!"
Upon witnessing this scene, Rengoku Kyojuro gritted his teeth and charged towards Kanroji Mitsuri.
He knew that Kanroji Mitsuri, who had just mastered the unknown breathing technique, was absolutely no match for the Gatling gun's relentless barrage of bullets!
However, Li Ke was faster than him, reaching out to throw the mother and child behind the cover.
He resolutely approached Ganlu Temple Mitsuri and began to wield the Quanzhen Sword Technique.
"A peacock spreading its tail feathers!"
The iron sword in his hand transformed into a curtain of swords, intercepting each incoming bullet.
But no matter how exquisite the Quanzhen sword technique was, it ultimately did not take into account the day when it would face a barrage of Gatling gun bullets.
So even though Li Ke intercepted most of the bullets, a few still hit his body, causing blood to spurt out.
However, although the Gatling gun is very powerful, it still needs to be reloaded.
Taking advantage of the Gatling gun's reloading pause, Li Ke turned to the bewildered Kanroji Mitsuri and said in a deep voice:
"Let's go!"
Upon hearing this, Kanroji Mitsuri immediately ran towards the cover where the mother and child were hiding.
Seeing this, Li Ke followed behind, occasionally slashing away stray bullets.
At this moment, the sound of the Gatling gun rang out again, but it only hit the cover and did not harm Li Ke and the others behind the wall.
Looking down, he realized that in just a few breaths, the bullet had been expelled from his body.
Turning around, Li Kegang prepared to kill Pei Lang, seize the Muzan blood from Pei Lang, and increase the concentration of demon blood in his own body.
The sound behind him made Li Ke stop in his tracks.
"Wait, are you a ghost? Why did you save me?"
This was her first mission, under the tutelage of the Demon Slayer Corps and her master, Kyojuro Rengoku.
Ghosts are undoubtedly an extreme form of evil, a completely incomprehensible and incomprehensible existence.
Now, an unknown ghost has saved her, leaving her completely at a loss for what to do.
Turning around, she looked at Kanroji Mitsuri's beautiful face.
"It's such a pity that such beautiful flowers have withered away like this."
After a pause, Li Ke continued:
"There are good people and bad people, and there are good ghosts and bad ghosts."
Whether a person is human or a ghost depends on their thoughts.
Listening to Li Ke's cryptic words, Kanroji Mitsuri was somewhat confused.
"Alright, I still have to go take down that Lower Moon demon, Pedro. Goodbye."
With that, Li Ke leaped away and left the place.
Seeing Rick charging towards Pero with his sword drawn, Mitsuri Kanroji asked in confusion:
"What a strange person. Is he really a ghost?"
……
"It's you!"
Upon seeing Li Ke charging towards him, Peron was slightly taken aback, but then became overjoyed.
Kyojuro Rengoku, who was about to attack Pero, suddenly stopped and looked at Li Ke warily.
Although Li Ke had just saved Kanroji Mitsuri, he could tell at a glance that Li Ke was a demon.
Even when facing demons, including the one who had saved Mitsuri Kanroji, he remained extremely wary.
"Haha, you're actually here! I'll definitely kill you and make you serve Lord Muzan!"
Overjoyed, Peron suddenly pointed his gun at Rick.
"Da da da da..."
"Bang! Bang! Bang!..."
The sounds of Gatling guns, rifles, and pistols rang out one after another, chaotic yet orderly, transforming into a continuous tidal wave of bullets sweeping towards Li Ke.
However, Li Ke did not stand still and wait to be shot. Instead, he moved in a 'Z' pattern while rushing towards Pei Lang.
At the same time, while Ricci was distracting Pero, Rengoku Kyojuro drew his sword and slashed at Pero.
"cut!"
Seeing the two getting closer, Peron didn't just stand there dumbfounded.
Instead, with the help of the Blood Demon Art, they climbed to the roof of a four-story commercial building behind them.
At the same time, he pulled out several bombs from his shadow and threw them in the directions of Rengoku Kyojuro and Li Ke.
"Boom! Boom!"...
Several explosions rang out, and bloodstains appeared on Rengoku Kyojuro's body, clearly indicating that he had been injured by the explosions.
The same thing happened to Li Ke, but his powerful self-healing ability as a ghost healed his injuries in less than two seconds.
"How about we collaborate?"
Li Ke turned to look at Rengoku Kyojuro and extended an invitation.
This wolf is extremely cunning and treacherous, specializing in using firearms for long-range attacks, and immediately pulling away as soon as they get close.
With the battle dragging on like this, ending it quickly won't be easy.
If this drags on, more Demon Slayer Corps members and even other Pillars will arrive.
By then, he won't even be able to steal Muzan's blood from Pero's body to increase the concentration of his own demon blood.
Whether they can escape from the Demon Slayer Corps' encirclement is still unknown.
After all, those Demon Slayer Corps members probably wouldn't listen to his explanation at all; they would just draw their swords and start slashing.
However, when faced with Li Ke's invitation, Rengoku Kyojuro's mind was filled with memories of the day he carried out his first demon-slaying mission.
That was an old ghost who could unleash blood demon magic through his flute. The blood demon magic he unleashed could paralyze a person's nerves, rendering them powerless to resist.
As a result, all the Demon Slayer Corps members who were on the mission to exterminate demons with Kyojuro Rengoku that day died.
Only Kyojuro Rengoku, thanks to his teammates' information, ruptured his own eardrums in advance, indirectly breaking the Blood Demon Art.
They finally managed to slay the evil spirit and survive.
Thinking of those fallen comrades, and then of those cannibalistic, hostage-taking, utterly shameless monsters.
Should he really cooperate with this unknown demon to kill the Lower Moon Two?
But this unknown demon did indeed save Kanroji Mitsuri just now, and seems to be different from the other demons.
Kyojuro Rengoku was caught in a great internal struggle, unsure of what to choose.
