Chapter 169 Demon Slayer Squad
"Really? You're already this old, why are you still crying?"
Wiping Tanjiro's tears, the mother said with a smile on her face.
Ye Ming laughed and said, "Brother is such a grown up and still crying. What a crybaby."
Tanjiro also held back his tears, and then said excitedly: "Takeo, I will take you to find Nezuko now. We must revive our mother as soon as possible!"
The next moment the surrounding scene immediately shattered, and Tanjiro woke up in shock.
Ye Ming said helplessly: "Don't mention real things in dreams. You can't wake up from dreams. They are all in the state of souls now."
Tanjiro said awkwardly, "Sorry, I didn't think of that."
"Let's go. First, complete the Demon Slayer Corps' entry test, and then we can move slowly."
Ye Ming didn't care at all. Then he and Tanjiro came to the final gathering place, where many pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps were also present.
Tanjiro and Kanao, as well as the other two members of the protagonist group, Zenitsu, the successor of Lightning Breathing, and Inosuke, the successor of Beast Breathing, are all there.
There were only 5 people who graduated in total, and with Ye Ming, there were 6 people in total. However, Ye Ming's appearance made everyone frown.
Wind Pillar Shimizu stopped in front of Ye Ming and said with a very cold expression: "Are you the one that the Water Pillar mentioned, the one who helps the Demon Slayer Corps kill demons and doesn't eat humans?"
Ye Ming smiled and said, "Of course it's me. Why don't you believe it? Or do you think your blood, which is extremely attractive to ghosts, will be useful to me?"
Shimi's expression became extremely ugly. That was his secret. He didn't expect Ye Ming to know it. Could it be that Shuizhu told him?
But it doesn't matter. At this time, Shimi took out a small knife and cut his arm.
The skin was cut and blood was flowing out.
This kind of blood has a fatal attraction to ghosts, but Ye Ming always has a calm expression when facing this blood. He doesn't even have the impulse of bloodthirstiness, nor does he have an expression of restraint.
Shimi even suspected that this guy was a ghost.
Ye Ming said helplessly: "Okay, is that enough? Let's stop the test here. I have gotten rid of the instinct to devour people. Now, except for being a little afraid of the sun, I am almost the same as a normal person.
Besides, I didn't come here just to see my brother, but to tell you that the man, Muzan Kibutsuji, has been killed by me."
As soon as these words were spoken, all the pillars present stared at Ye Ming with wide eyes.
Even Tanjiro couldn't believe it. He quickly asked, "Did you really kill him? Where did you kill him?"
It’s not that I don’t trust my brother, it’s mainly because this is too shocking.
Ye Ming nodded and said, "Just before, just one day ago, it can't be said that he was completely killed.
I have captured the rest of him and am planning to do some research on him to find a way to make me less afraid of the sun."
After several people's brains turned several times, their expressions changed again.
They looked at Ye Ming with somewhat dangerous eyes. After all, the reason why Muzan caused trouble and kept attacking humans was to find a way to not be afraid of the sunlight.
But Muzan was caught, and the person who wanted to be fearless of the sun became Ye Ming.
Knowing what everyone was thinking, Ye Ming said indifferently: "Whatever you think, I am different from ghosts. Of course, if you want to speak with strength, I am also happy to compete with you.
After all, you are the strongest team in the Demon Slayer Corps. If I defeat you, you won't stop me from doing anything in the future."
Everyone then realized that Ye Ming seemed to be here to cause trouble, or to challenge others. How could this be tolerated?
"Then let me be the referee."
A man with a frail body and corroded upper face spoke in a gentle voice.
When he arrived at the stadium, all the pillars bowed their heads and saluted. Ye Ming knew who this person was, Ubuyashiki Yoshiya, the head of the Demon Slayer Corps and the lord of the Demon Slayer Corps.
"Whether it's a round-robin battle or a joint attack, I will never use blood magic in battle, nor will I use the ghost's physique to repair wounds.
If you can leave a wound on me, or if the blade touches my skin, you win.
If you win, I will hand over the rest of Muzan to you and let you deal with it. If I win, don't stop me in the future."
Such arrogant words angered most people present, even if Ye Ming was not a ghost.
There was a fighting spirit in everyone's eyes. As long as they could hit him with a knife, they would win. Such a bet was too easy!
"I'll come first!"
Shimizu was the first to step forward. As the Wind Pillar, his attack speed was the fastest, so letting him come would give him a greater chance of winning.
Because he couldn't use blood demon arts, Ye Ming waved at Tanjiro, and Tanjiro immediately understood.
He handed the Sun Wheel Sword in his hand to Ye Ming. After taking the Sun Wheel Sword, Ye Ming replaced the blade with the back of the knife.
This action was a clear provocation, Shimi was enraged, and the two of them came to the battle area.
Following the order from Lord Yaoya, Shimizu turned into a gust of wind and slashed towards Ye Ming.
Although his speed was already very fast, in Ye Ming's eyes everything was still too slow.
Ye Ming held the Sun Blade and walked towards him gently.
The next moment, Shimi, whose body turned into a gust of wind, appeared again, but this time, he looked at his hands with shock, his empty hands.
And on the tree trunk next to him, his Sun Blade was stuck!
"next."
Ye Ming did not hesitate and stood in the same place again. At this moment, all the pillars understood.
This man is no joke, he can overpower everyone with his swordsmanship alone without using any ghost powers.
However, there was no sign of retreat in the eyes of all the pillars. Instead, there was a strong desire to fight.
And the one who came on stage was Kyojuro who looked very enthusiastic.
"Then let me do it, Breath of Fire!"
Flames appeared on his blade, and just a simple breath gave his sword great power.
The opponent did not intend to hurt him with speed like Shiya did, but wanted to suppress him with a collision of force.
Then give yourself a knife. It's a very simple tactic suitable for people with smart minds.
A hint of mockery appeared on Ye Ming's face.
Unfortunately, strength is what I am best at.
Because Ye Ming only limited his own blood ghost magic and ghost recovery ability, but did not limit his own muscle strength.
Facing the powerful blow from the Flame Pillar, Ye Ming raised the back of the knife, and only heard a crisp clanging sound.
Kyojuro was surprised to find that his knife was actually held firmly by Ye Ming. His knife was like a piece of grass, chopping on the tree trunk, unable to shake it at all!
