Chapter 224 Confirmed Death
And the moment karma touched the earth, Wolf and Yoshiichirō in Asakusa felt the strange feeling brought by this unusual power, and their figures instantly rushed towards the direction of Infinite City!
At this moment, there were only two thoughts in their minds: go faster and faster. Their bodies were like fired bullets, turning into a trail of afterimages that crossed several hills in the moonlight.
Finally, they stopped in front of the Infinite City, which was constantly collapsing and emerged from hiding after Mingnu disappeared. At this moment, the two of them noticed each other's existence, but they just looked at each other, then quickly retracted their gazes and jumped into the collapsing Infinite City.
The howling wind sounded in the ears of the two falling people. Yunyi tapped his toes lightly and rushed towards the direction where the strange feeling came from like a flying swallow, while the wolf swung the grappling hook and shuttled through the collapsed city at the same time as Yunyi.
A moment later, a bottomless pit appeared in front of the two men, and a strange feeling came from the pit. Without hesitation, they jumped down together.
boom!
Bending their legs as they fell, the two landed steadily at the bottom of the pit. The first thing they saw after standing up was Muzan's body gradually turning into ashes and dissipating.
The two of them were stunned at the same time, and their eyes caught the scarlet aura lingering on Muzan's body and the fleeting darkness beneath him.
He hurried forward to check, but as Muzan dissipated, the two forces also disappeared in front of Lang and Yuanyi, and no one knew where they went...
But even so, Wolf instantly felt the origin of the dark power. His face froze, and he reached out to take off [Bai Lei] from behind his back, and looked at [Open the Door] in Yuichiro's hand.
Seeing the wolf's actions, Yunyi was not a fool and naturally understood the meaning of it. He raised the [Open the Door] in his hand, looked at the dark karma lingering on it, and slowly spoke.
"Same…"
The wolf nodded slightly in approval, and Yoriichi asked again.
"But what does this prove?"
This time, the wolf hesitated for a moment, then slowly retracted [Bai Lei] behind him and shook his head slightly.
"do not know…"
His brows furrowed, and an ominous premonition hung over Yunyi's heart.
They were each thinking silently, and just as they were about to say something to each other, a huge wooden board fell from above and hit them between them.
Peng!
Soon after, more and more wooden planks fell between the two of them. This chaotic and mixed city had no strength to support it and could no longer remain the same. The Infinite City began to collapse completely!
..............................
When rushing out from the collapsed Infinite City, a hint of pale sky had already appeared on the horizon, gradually dispelling the darkness of the night. Standing among the ruins on the mountain, Wolf suddenly remembered something and opened the light curtain with an intention.
Ignoring all the insignificant things obtained from killing evil spirits, Wolf set his sights on the final reward prompt with white text on a black background.
【Battle Memory? Muzan Kibutsuji】
[The memory of the battle with the rare and powerful one stored in my heart.]
Facing the battle memory in your mind can enhance your attack power.
The ancestor of ghosts, who had lived in the world for more than a thousand years, died today. 】
Next to the introduction, Muzan's completely demonic and hideous face appeared, and Wolf, who saw all this, was now certain of one thing.
Really dead...
But why hasn't the uneasiness in my heart subsided yet...
After thinking for a long time without any result, Wolf dispersed the light curtain and met Yuichir's gaze. He thought that they would draw their swords and fight each other as soon as they saw each other again, but he didn't expect that there was no desire to fight in either of their hearts at this moment.
In silence, the wolf turned and left as he watched the sun gradually rise in the sky.
Yoriichi was left alone basking in the sun, watching the wolf leave.

Demon Slayer Headquarters
The sunlight shone into the house through the gap in the window and fell on the sleeping lord. The warm sunlight made him slowly open his eyes. He was still a little sleepy at first, but the changes in his body made him wake up instantly.
This...this is!
The scene that he had imagined countless times in his dreams actually happened, and Yaoya's body trembled slightly.
Feeling Yaoya's movement beside her, Tianyin climbed up and was about to reach out to help, but the next second, in her shocked eyes, Yaoya actually supported himself on the floor and sat up!
Then he stood up tremblingly, jumped awkwardly on the spot, and finally swallowed nervously and reached out to touch his forehead with a trembling hand.
He found that the forehead that was originally hideously diseased was now smooth and flat, like a newborn baby. At this moment, Yaoya could no longer conceal his joy. He turned around and wanted to hug his wife, but Tianyin threw herself into his arms before him.
The joy on his face turned into tenderness, and Yaoya gently stroked Tianyin's trembling back. At this moment, the hoarse voices of several crows sounded in the yard.
"The evil ghost of Teng Xishan mysteriously disappeared!"
"A large collapsed city was found in the mountains near Asakusa!"
"There have been numerous reports of evil spirits injuring people all over the country!"
Originally, the information conveyed by these crows might have been the things he needed to deal with, but the loud cry of the last crow made everything turn into the best good news!
"All soldiers participating in the operation in Asakusa report in! Muzan Kibutsuji! Suspected dead!"
..............................
On the train traveling from Asakusa to the city near Chouya, Zenitsu and Xuanya leaned against the window and watched the scenery in front of them recede, their mouths wide open, with undisguised surprise on their faces.
Inosuke, who was sitting next to them, sneered and snorted complacently.
"Hehe~ Two country bumpkins~"
Ichiro, who was sitting next to them, rolled his eyes at Inosuke and said speechlessly.
"How dare you say that..."
Muichiro, who was also in a bad mood, naturally took over his brother's words.
"Yeah, I almost got into a fight with the train with a knife when I first saw it."
After that, the three of them started playing together again.
Looking at the five little brats in front of him, Busui felt a headache, especially since his younger brother was among them, which made Busui even more melancholy. He covered his forehead and sighed.
but…
Muzan has been dealt with... Xuanya shouldn't be in danger anymore...
Sitting in the seat opposite Busei River, Wolf sat upright and quietly, looking at the scenery outside the window. Although his reaction was not as big as Xuanya and Zenitsu, he still felt some novelty when facing new things.
...It's a really novel experience...but...it would be better if Miss Shinobu didn't keep staring at me...
Wolf turned his gaze and looked at the little ninja who was staring at him, and whispered.
"Ms. Shinobu... I really won't run away..."
With a slight snort, Shinobu's eyes narrowed slightly, still locked on the wolf.
"I don't believe it. You disappeared for a long time in the second half of last night. When I asked you where you went, you didn't tell me."
盯…
Feeling Xiaonin's gaze, Wolf sighed softly and didn't say anything more, but after a while, he felt a sense of heaviness on his shoulders.
Turning his head, he saw that Xiaonin was weak due to injury and had not slept all night, so he rested his head on his shoulder, breathing evenly and fell into a deep sleep.
After thinking for a while, Wolf gently supported Xiaonin's shoulders, stood up carefully, and let Xiaonin lie on the seat of the Great Wall. Worried about pressing on her wound, he also considerately crossed Xiaonin's arms and placed them on her chest.
It's a bit strange, but it should be more comfortable...
The wolf thought so in his heart.
No way... this guy is useless...
Zenitsu, who was watching all of the wolf's movements from the reflection in the car window, thought this in his mind.
