Chapter 85: Interests always come first

According to Yaoya Sanyashiki, the number of swordsmen from the Demon Slayer Team who came here after receiving the mission from Spider Mountain was at least 20 or more, and among them, different team members faced different demons.

When Ryusha came to this river, what he saw was this alien ghost with a human body, but an ugly appearance like a spider.

Although he is an alien ghost, it seems that because he has eaten a lot of people, his strength has surpassed the scope of ordinary alien ghosts, and his aura is at least much stronger than the hand ghosts and toad ghosts that Lu Xia encountered before.

He was confronted by a young man with a naked upper body and a wild boar hood on his head, who wielded the same dual knives as Ryuxia.

The spider-ghost's strength was so strong that when he swung the trunk of the giant tree he was holding in his arms like a stone pillar towards the boar boy, he even brought a violent wind whistling through the air.

With that might, if an ordinary person is hit by a tree trunk, he is afraid that more than half of the bones in his body will be broken in an instant, and he will be killed, even if he is a breathing swordsman, he will suffer heavy damage.

"Ahem!"

Although the wild boar boy tried his best to avoid the attack of the spider ghost, he was accidentally hit by a huge tree trunk, and the whole person was like being hit by a truck, and was knocked out more than ten meters away in a gust of wind, and smashed on the trees in the distance before he could stop, and let out a difficult cough from his throat.

"Oops...... At least three or more broken ribs......"

The wild boar boy has a very good ability to perceive his body, and his sense of touch is very keen, not to mention feeling the injuries in his body, and even using his skin to sense the proximity of fighting and murderous energy.

Only three ribs were broken or he grew up in the mountains, often fighting with wild beasts, and his physical strength was far beyond ordinary people, otherwise if he suffered this blow, I am afraid that his body would be half crippled and lose the power to resist.

Like a wild beast, the boar boy resisted the pain with a strong will, and stood up from the ground, ready for the next pursuit of the spider-ghost.

However, when he raised his head, what he saw was not a manic pursuit from the spider ghost, but an incomparably bright sword light.

"Qiang—"

A sword light as clear as a crescent moon appeared before his eyes, and then disappeared in a flash that he couldn't see at all.

"Woohoo!"

Before he could come to his senses, the spider-ghost let out a roar of pain.

Then his arms were completely separated from his body, and even his legs were cut through by the sharp silk threads in an instant, and they detached from their limbs and fell into the river, splashing a stirring splash.

That's not something that can be done with a single knife, and if you want to cut off all four limbs from the torso, you need at least three slashes.

However, the boar boy didn't see the second and third sword lights, it was purely because the three sword lights were too close, and almost at the moment when the first sword light was swung, the second and third sword lights had already swept out like a double lotus.

In other words, what he actually saw was not a single sword light, but three sword lights swung out at the same time, but because the speed was too fast, his eyes couldn't distinguish it.

"Woo yo !!"

From the mouth of the boar boy came a scream of unknown meaning as if the boar had been frightened.

It's something he simply can't do.

But for Ryuxia, it wasn't even a sword skill, just a casual swing of the sword.

Ryusha stood on top of a palm-sized rock that was exposed to the surface of the river, and looked at the spider ghost in front of him whose limbs had been severed and howled miserably because of the recovery power of the Hedao seal, his eyes were indifferent.

"Where are the other ghosts?"

"Woohoo! Whoa, whoa, whoa! You...... Damn—whew! ”

Ryuxia looked at the spider ghost who couldn't even say a complete sentence, and frowned slightly.

Could this guy be an inferior ghost with the same intelligence as the toad ghost?

"Forget it, it's not worth wasting time on this guy."

As soon as the thought in Lu Xia's heart arose, the sword in his hand had already been swung out.

After another flash of swords, the spider ghost's head snapped instantly, and the howl stopped in an instant, and then the entire body, including the limbs, turned into ashes and dissipated.

"The boar over there."

After beheading the spider ghost, Ryuxia turned to look at the wild boar-hooded boy who was looking at him in a daze not far away, and asked again, "Do you know where the other ghosts are here?" ”

"Woohoooo

The wild boar boy suddenly made a clever and strange cry like a wild boar again, and then he picked up his double knives in high spirits and ran in front of Ryuxia with a smoke.

"Kid! Is it a child who wields that kind of knife? But that's okay! Come and fight me! ”

Watching the wild boar boy dance as if excited, Ryuxia's brows furrowed again.

Could this be another retarded one?

"Where are the other ghosts?"

Ryusha asked again.

Unlike the spider ghosts who obviously didn't even have intelligence before, this boar boy was obviously a swordsman of the Demon Slayer team, and although the thinking circuit of his brain was a little strange, he could at least communicate with words.

Moreover, he went up the mountain much faster than Ryuxia, so he should know about the existence of other ghosts.

"Other ghosts?"

After Ryusha asked again, the boar boy apparently came back to his senses, crossed his hands on his hips, and spoke with an extremely proud expression.

"I don't know!"

Ryusha turned and left.

If he says one more thing to this guy, he's mentally retarded.

However, the boar boy's words were not finished.

"I don't know, but we've met other ghosts before!"

Ryusha stopped.

"And then that ghost was killed by Tanjiro!"

Ryusha continued walking.

Although he heard the familiar name from the mouth of the boar boy, Ryuxia still didn't care.

The reason why I saved those two people from Purgatory Kyojuro's hands last time was just because I didn't want the hot relationship between the two to be ignored and tarnished by Purgatory Kyojuro.

But although Ryuxia values the precious brother-sister relationship between them, he also has a clear understanding of his own ability, he is not a god, it is impossible to shelter those two people for the rest of his life, he does not have that ability, so he does not intend to protect them like a nanny, but will only help them when necessary.

As long as it wasn't in the case of certain death, or in the case of their feelings being tarnished, Ryusha wasn't going to do anything for them.

Moreover, there has been a conflict of interest between 'killing as many demons as possible' and 'protecting Tanjiro, who may be in danger', and it is impossible for Ryuxia to choose to give up his interests and choose to help them.

In his heart, interests always come first, and everything else, whether it is 'the obligations that he needs to achieve' or the 'hot and precious feelings', must be placed in the back row, not to mention that Tanjiro is only likely to be dangerous.

"Wait! What are you going? Fight with me......"

Behind him came the cry of a boar boy, but Ryusha ignored it, and left the river and continued to turn around the mountain.
