Chapter 67 : On one side of the scale , Ah Zhu does n’t care about other people ’s lives …

Azhu does n't care about other people 's lives .

The death of others is insignificant news to him , but if it happens before his eyes , he will not let it go .​​​

He always ignores ordinary people who speak ill of him , and the rules of the Demon Slayer Corps do not allow him to attack ordinary people .

The real person opened his eyes .

The red umbrella began to spin , the wind and snow blew up , and faint light flickered on the umbrella , outlining several figures , which disappeared in a flash and were covered by the falling snow .

It is difficult for a woman 's body to move forward any further .

She opened her eyes wide in horror , her body trembling slightly , fear and coldness intertwined and spread . The breath she gritted her teeth finally failed to escaping , and she fell to the snow .

The young man in red robe tilted his head , glanced behind him , ignored him , and walked forward with an umbrella .

The wind and snow were running through the dry woods . A thin layer of snow had accumulated on the red umbrella . The sky and earth were pitch black without a trace of light . The light of the small house behind him was shaking . Boyezhu walked into the depths of the woods and listened carefully to the sounds of fighting .

He would sink an inch into the snow when he stepped on it . His red robe was a little wet , the wind penetrated his collar , and the coldness exacerbated his physical exhaustion .

Whether it is a cannibal ghost or a human , they all have physical bodies and souls .

Everything that has a soul is subject to the execution of [ Transformation by Inaction ] .

Bo Yezhu lowered his eyes and walked slowly forward . Through the noisy wind , there seemed to be movement behind him . The heaviness of death spread , but life had to go on .

Winter is still long .

He stood still , next to a tree that required two people to hug it . Like other trees , it had lost all its leaves . Snow fell on the upright branches , making them look like they were covered in a white coat .

The front was in a mess . In the dim light , the jade pot wanted to escape , but there was no way to retreat . It wanted to move to other pots , but all connections were cut off .

He didn't know what was going on , so he could only bite the bullet and fight the real person .

If you lose the desire to fight from the beginning , you will only suffer setbacks .

He called out to the Upper Ranks and Muzan in his heart , but no one responded to him . This world of ice and snow was desolate and uninhabited , as if only he and the Masato were left . The Masato swung his punch again , and with just one blow , he smashed all his little ghosts to pieces .

What happened ? Yu Hu was filled with doubts .​

The red robe was blown up by the wind , and the cursed spirit 's long hair was divided into three strands and hung behind his head . Under his forehead , a pair of gray and strange eyes reflected Yuhu 's panicked expression . He took a step and walked in front of the motionless upper - rank demon .

Nightmare 's blood magic is much more useful than he imagined .​​​

The real person stretched out his hand and pressed his palm on Yuhu 's head . The power of the spell surged and he activated the technique .

" Ahhh ! — — " Yu Hu, who suddenly broke away from the endless illusion , first felt the pain of his whole body twisting . He let out a sharp cry , but it was quickly cut off . His deformed and swollen body collapsed to the ground , and the pot cracked into several pieces .

The real person took a few steps back and looked coldly at the cursed spirit rolling on the ground . The jade pot and blood ghost art that he transformed were also taken away . Because it carried too many negative emotions , it had the strength of a second - level cursed spirit once it was transformed .

" Are you ready ? " The clear voice pierced through the wind and snow . The real person turned around and looked at the person holding an umbrella under the tree over there .

A gentle smile appeared on his face , and snowflakes fell on the ends of his hair , making it slightly wet .

His red robe swept past him , and he ignored the writhing cursed spirits on the ground . He started walking towards the Boyezhu . When he got closer , he said , " I 'll go find where the lamp fell . "

A few minutes later , the real person turned on the lantern again , and the light illuminated the road under his feet . There was snow everywhere . They stepped on the snow , and there was still light snow falling from the sky .

After identifying the direction , the real person looked at Bo Yezhu and said , " Follow me . "​

Bo Yezhu raised the umbrella a little higher to cover both of them .​​​

" Did anything else happen over there ? " the real person asked , looking ahead .

Bo Ye Zhu grumbled , briefly recounting the incident with those families . " I used an umbrella to shield her . Because I 've had close encounters with ghosts , I ca n't get close to an umbrella . "​​​

" It seems the ghost that Jiao Ya spotted a few days ago was n't Yu Hu 's subordinate . " The Immortal pondered for a moment , then said , " She actually dared to hide a few ghosts . Is n't she afraid of being discovered ? "

" There are seven or eight houses over there . Those ghosts are hiding in the small house at the end . There is no movement from the outside . If the smell wasn't too strong , I would n't have thought of checking the house . " Bo Yezhu said .

In fact, if it weren't for the woman's accusation , he would n't bother to explain that the ghost in the house had been transformed for several days . After killing ghosts for so many years , he shouldn't be unable to tell when they turned into ghosts .

The real person suddenly thought of something and asked , " Should we dry the red umbrella when we get home ? It seems to be raining a little . "

" Ah ? Really ? " Bo Ye Zhu opened his eyes wide . He had been holding the umbrella and did n't notice it was raining at all .

The red umbrella is considered an antique after all . If Bo Ye Zhu hadn't had a premonition that he would encounter a powerful enemy tonight , he would n't have brought it out .

He urged the Immortal to walk faster . The two of them were already walking fast . The wind and snow were getting stronger and stronger , and the road ahead was a little blurry , but the lantern in the Immortal's hand still remained lit.

When we returned to the courtyard to rest , there was already a thick layer of snow .

The wisteria flower marks outside the house have been replaced with a brand new pattern . The yard is not big , with about seven or eight rooms tightly packed together , and smoke can be faintly seen rising from the chimney .

The owner of this house is Mrs. Yamaguchi , who is very old . The continuous occurrence of cannibal ghost incidents in the vicinity has led the headquarters to decide to send out Uroba Nagisa and Masato . Due to the bad weather , they did not choose to stay at the nearest Wind Pillar 's base , but in a wisteria house in the mountains .

Mrs. Yamaguchi had already prepared food and hot water . The wrinkles on her face smoothed out as she smiled and said , " I hope everything goes well tonight , my lords . "

Bo Ye Zhu held the hot water while Zhenren stood under the eaves , talking to Jiao Ya . He smiled and said , " It went quite smoothly . Not as difficult as I imagined . "

Zhenzhen seemed to have become stronger . His gentle gaze looked through the door at the young man outside the house .

After a while , the real one walked in , sat down , and said , " News has come from headquarters that Upper 4 Hantengu was killed near the Swordsmith Village by the Flame Pillar Rengoku Kyojuro , the Mist Pillar Tokito Muichiro , and Kamado Tanjiro . "

He paused , then glanced sideways at Bo Ye Zhu . " No one activated their markings . They worked together to kill Hantengou . "

Bo Ye Zhu's expression remained unchanged . He took a sip of hot water , the warm liquid rolling down his throat . He narrowed his eyes slightly and said , " Are you worried ? Not having the markings activated is n't necessarily a bad thing . "

He had a faint smile on his face . When he heard the news reported by Jiao Ya , his restless heart gradually calmed down . He looked at Bo Yezhu with his gray-blue eyes , waiting for his next words .

Mrs. Yamaguchi quietly stood up and left , leaving only the two of them in the room .

Bo Yezhu is always careless about small things , and the real person is basically responsible for everything , but when it comes to big things , the real person basically listens to him .

Over the years , Zhenren hasn't made many decisions on his own .

Bringing Urobe Nagisa to the Demon Slayer Corps was an opportunity that he had carefully planned to create .​​

The silver-haired young man lowered the cup he was holding and placed it on the tray on the ground . He said , " Activating the markings will inevitably shorten your lifespan . This is irreversible . "

" Similarly , activating the markings will greatly enhance a swordsman 's combat effectiveness . I 'm really worried that the pillars without markings will have a reduced chance of winning against the Upper Rank Demons and Muzan , right ? "

His voice was not loud , and even a little slow .

But it cannot be denied that this was also the real person 's first thought .

This was also the reason why he did not fully activate the [ Inaction Transformation ] when he faced the Upper Moon Demon several times before .

Will the lack of hardships in the original timeline affect the growth progress of the protagonists ?

The corners of Bo Yezhu 's lips curled up , his eyes looking at the real person with a hint of freshness . He leaned over , his eyes curved , " Do n't worry , I have a way . "

The real person held his shoulder , lowered his eyes , and said , " Do n't tell me how you 're going to hurt yourself . "

He was really a little scared .

Bo Ye Zhu curled her lips : " Am I the kind of person who hurts myself ? "

The red robe he was wearing was taken off and put aside when he came in . Bo Yezhu was wearing several thick clothes underneath . He was pressed to the ground by the real person and could only maintain one posture .

He said , " Compared to stripes , if I could win the battle without sacrificing my lifespan , that would be the best . "​​

" Of course it is for everyone , " the real person said calmly , " I don't want anything to happen to Azhu . "

Uroba Nagisa is not someone who would harm her own character for the sake of others .

He knew very well that nothing was more important than himself .​​

But what if the stakes on the other side of the scale keep getting higher ?

On the other side lies the fate of the Bo Ye family's reincarnations for hundreds of times , the lives of hundreds of thousands or even countless ordinary people , or the members of the Demon Slayer Corps , and perhaps even real people .

He puts real people on the other end of the scale .

Just like many years ago , he ordered the real person to get something , and then silently cut his blood to paint , for his own selfish reasons and for the world that the real person wanted .

His face didn't reveal any emotion , he was still smiling , as if he was just talking about tomorrow 's weather .

As soon as he released the pressure on the shoulders , he moved forward and kissed the slightly cool lips of the real person , but left immediately .

Then he rested his silver- haired head on his lover 's shoulder and whispered , " The world everyone hopes for will come . "

The real person sighed , grabbed his wrist , and said , " But the world I long for is only Azhu . "

At an angle where the curse spirit couldn't see , Bo Ye Zhu 's clear eyes stopped moving and stared at a corner , slightly absent - minded , but he quickly came to his senses .

Her long eyelashes drooped , obscuring the thoughts in her eyes . Bo Ye Zhu whispered , " If I could call upon the gods to descend , then the side effects of the markings would be perfectly replaced . I have thirteen gods I can call upon , and the probability of a response is not high . But there is one who I believe will definitely come . "

" What about Azhu ? " Zhenren 's voice was a little obscure .

" What price does such a miracle cost ? "​​​​​

The price ?

Bo Ye Zhu thought about this problem seriously .

In his past memories , after using this move , he basically ended up dying , and he didn't have time to consider the cost . After all, once Fujiwara Tomokazu died , the cycle of reincarnation would begin again .

But he was willing to take a gamble , and it was time for EMI 's cycle to end .

He will personally shape his and Mahito 's future .
