Chapter 124: Bone-chilling winter - To be revised
late at night.
Deep somewhere in a remote area of Infinite City, the buildings around here are arranged in an orderly manner, but they are unusually cold and deserted. The dusty shops around here seem to have existed for a long time, but no one takes care of them.
"You gave control of the Infinite City to Mingnu, but hid this place. I really don't know what you were thinking?"
A dull voice echoed here, and after echoing a few times, there was no sound anymore, as if it had never existed.
He walked forward with his hands behind his back, looking at the road ahead with a little surprise. It was very empty inside, and after a quick glance, he found that there were only a few stone pillars standing on both sides and a building in front.
An couldn't help but frown, recalling that there was indeed such a place in his memory, but he only knew the location but had no memory of what was inside.
"Forget it, let's go in and see." Yami took a step forward, but paused after a few steps. After a few breaths, he said coldly, "Kumeshun, long time no see."
As he finished speaking, there was a flash of blood in front of him, and a fat white-haired cat slowly appeared. But it looked very strange, standing on two feet and walking.
But, the contrast between the way he walked towards me with such a fat body and the world-weary look on his face was enough to make me want to laugh.
He pulled the corners of his mouth together, as if he was about to laugh, but he regained his composure the next moment and his demeanor became stern.
"Are you used to this body?" he asked in a dark voice. "That 'traitor' has been very good to you over the years."
Kawano walked to An's feet, raised his cat head, looked up at the figure that exuded a familiar and missing feeling, and spoke with a slightly excited tone.
"It's been a while indeed. Although I'm still incomplete, I'm happy to talk to you."
"Hehe..." An smiled faintly, without saying anything more, nor did he want to say more, "Tamayo used drugs to escape from my control. I guess that's why you came here?"
"...Yes, she seemed to have noticed something and broke away." There was an imperceptible coldness and aggression in Kawano's words.
"Put aside your little thoughts. The threat she can pose to me is minimal." An said coldly, "But I am a little surprised by you. She has been with you for nearly two hundred years, and you actually wanted to kill her at that moment. Do you really want to kill her?"
Kawano was not too surprised by what I said. After all, he never thought of hiding it, otherwise he would not have come.
"Kill anyone who stands in your way to success." Kawano Masayoshi.
Hearing this, An's eyes became extremely complicated. He stepped forward and continued to move deeper into the ground. Kawano did not follow him, but just watched from a distance.
His cat body suddenly emerged with blood-red light and shadow, and suddenly rose up, diffused above, gathered, and changed shape. After a moment, it shed its beast body and turned into a human form.
The body of a young man, wearing a pale blood-colored feather cloth, has a surprising appearance, sword-like eyebrows and eyes, and his appearance is not inferior to that of his brothers. However, his face is pale, slightly dark, and exhausted.
But what is more noticeable is that, in addition to human ears, he also has a pair of furry white cat ears slightly above them.
At this moment, dark voice echoed from the deepest part.
"Go back, I'm not the one who was chosen..."
Upon hearing this, Kawano looked straight ahead with a look of disbelief in his eyes, and his originally passionate emotions cooled down.
Bluestone stairs, sandalwood platform, and on top of it, the blood crystal throne. An stood in front of the throne. He could see that the throne was lonely, waiting for its owner.
Looking at the throne in secret, he felt an inexplicable attraction to it, but the closer he got, the more he felt as if there was a barrier separating him.
It was Chi Yang's barrier, but when An reached out to touch it, he encountered resistance. It was obvious that Chi Yang of this barrier was rejecting him.
"In that case, I won't stay any longer. I never thought...he would be the one chosen."
"...Yes, even though I already knew it, I still wanted to give it a try."
"What will you do now that you've been rejected?" Kawano asked.
"Let's walk along the road paved by "him" until the end... Since it was not me who made the choice, what can I change? In the end, I will just be someone else's wedding dress!!" A dark voice echoed here!

Tonight is a sleepless night. The bounty has spread across the country. Now, wherever there are people, there will be lights on.
In just a few days, most of the Demon Slayer Corps members who had not returned to the new headquarters in time were captured and their life and death were unknown.
Perhaps those people did not know the value of the crow and mistakenly thought it was one of the symbols of the Demon Slayer Corps, so they simply did not want to go through the trouble of capturing it.
During these few days, a large number of main crows returned to the Demon Slayer Corps, and without exception, they brought information about the capture of their members.
The number of members of the Demon Slayer Corps has been greatly reduced at this moment, not only because of being captured, but also because of fear.
Although ghosts are a species evolved from humans due to drugs, in a sense, they are already a new creature.
Being killed by a demon might make you feel happy, and killing a demon with your own hands and then dying at the hands of a demon might make you feel ashamed, but you will be absolutely sure that you will not regret it.
But if you are caught, it’s a different story. Even though they are the same kind of people, the things they do may be even more cruel.
Medical science has been developing rapidly in this era, and some people are no longer satisfied with experiments on mice. According to rumors, there was once a crazy medical scientist who conducted experiments on living people.
Ghosts will simply eat you, but humans may skin you alive.
Although it is just speculation, a few team members at the new headquarters could not accept that the humans they once protected turned around and captured them. Although they don't know what the outcome will be, it is still hard to accept.
He left the Demon Slayer Corps out of fear, hid his breathing technique, and became an ordinary person again.
I would rather be killed by a ghost than accept that the person I once protected would kill me.
At this moment, the total number of members of the Demon Slayer Corps has dropped sharply, and now it is less than one third.
And now, the backbone of the Demon Slayer Corps, their lord, Ubuyashiki Yoya, has been captured and his life or death is unknown.
Demon Slayer Corps - Big Crisis!!!

It is a bitterly cold December.
In this small path in the bamboo forest, a figure in red was walking lightly on the stone road. Perhaps it had rained recently, and there were bright water droplets reflecting the moonlight on the bamboo leaves.
The bright light of the crescent moon shone on the bamboo trunk and branches, and the reflected green light shone on the figure. For some reason, it looked extremely decadent and desolate.
Not long after, the figure in red stopped and looked forward. His vermilion pupils were without any emotion, not even a trace of light, and were dull and lifeless.
At this moment, a cold wind blew, blowing his clothes and his red hair began to flutter. He looked ahead, his lips trembling slightly, as if he was about to speak, but he kept them tightly closed and remained silent.
Time passed second by second, and the lips that were cracked due to the cold opened again.
"You shouldn't be here..."
Jiguo Yuanyi stared coldly at the person in front of him. His eyes did not change, but there was a sense of sadness, faint and imperceptible.
