Sanctuary Paradise

Chapter 28 Endless battle to the death
"Brother Lai Lai, are you okay?"

After a while, Tanjiro's figure rushed out of the woods. Seeing Xin Lailai covered in blood, he hurriedly rushed to Xin Lailai.

"He's not dead yet," Xin Lailai shook his head and put his palm on Tanjiro's shoulder with a serious look on his face: "This is an emergency, Tanjiro, please leave Tengshi Mountain with me immediately!"

Shitogen No. [-] and Shitogen No. [-] appeared one after another. The important female character in the original work, Kurihana Rakana, died tragically. In addition, the contractor who was called the executioner by the windmill had not even appeared yet. Now the most important thing is The best thing to do is to run away immediately.

"Leave...Okay, I get it!"

Tanjiro was startled when he heard this, and then nodded vigorously. Without any doubt, he immediately accepted Xin Lailai's proposal.

After two years of getting along, the two of them have become very familiar with each other. Tanjiro knows very well that Xin Lailai cannot suddenly decide to escape for no reason.

Seeing that Tanjiro didn't resist, Xin Lai also breathed a sigh of relief. What he was most worried about was that at this time, Tanjiro, as the protagonist, would suddenly change due to changes in the plot.

It seems now that although the plot has collapsed, Tanjiro, as the protagonist, has not shown any signs of being forced to interfere with the will of the world.

"You can't go through the mountain road, go directly this way."

Xin Lailai scanned around and quickly locked in a direction. Just as he was about to take a step, his body suddenly softened and he stumbled towards the ground.

"Brother Lai Lai, let me carry you on my back!"

Tanjiro stepped forward to support Xin Lailai, looking at the heavy blood stains on his body with a worried look on his face.

"Okay, then I'll trouble you."

Xin Lailai nodded in agreement without any pretense and allowed Tanjiro to carry him on his back.

After Tanjiro adjusted his posture, he took a deep breath, the muscles in his feet instantly exerted force, and he rushed in the direction indicated by Xin Lailai.

In the distance, several crows flew over and hovered above the two of them.

A strong jolting sensation came, but for Xin Lailai, who had gone through two years of training, this bump did not affect his thinking.

"Brother Lai Lai, what exactly happened?"

Tanjiro asked curiously while taking a breath while running wildly.

"The ghosts outside have attacked here. The targets are the swordsmen taking the exam, and the rumored Twelve Ghost Moons are also among them."

Twelve ghost months!

Tanjiro's breathing stopped suddenly, and even his steps were erratic, but he immediately realized the more critical question:
"Brother Lai Lai, have you met the Twelve Ghost Moons?"

"Well, I met two, namely Xia Xian Zhi Si and Xia Xian Zhi Er. If it weren't for my luck, I would probably be a corpse now."

Xin Lailai said in a low tone, while his mind unconsciously recalled the scene when he and Lailai were fighting just now.

In the battle with Windmill, he truly experienced the feeling of his life hanging by a thread. Strictly speaking, if it hadn't been for Ling Yuzi's betrayal, he would have died in the hands of Windmill.

Does this count as owing the other person a life?

When he thought of Ling Yuzi, Xin Lailai's eyes suddenly became a little complicated.

Even he never expected that Ling Yuzi, who was fighting with him a moment ago and even directly eating each other's hearts out, would eventually become his teammate who defeated Lu Lu.

Although Xin Lailai can roughly guess the reason, for a ghost like Ling Yuzi who lives like a wild beast, he probably always only thinks about whoever threatens his life and will kill him or run away decisively at all costs.

But when you actually see someone who was your enemy one second suddenly save your life the next, this sense of gap is really difficult to adapt to.

"Is this what Brother Ritian said that there will never be an absolute enemy in paradise?"

Xin Lailai smiled somewhat self-deprecatingly in his heart. He raised his head and glanced at the dark sky above his head. Looking at the crows circling above his head, he felt an indescribable feeling of insignificance in his heart.

He originally thought that with the help of 04296, his first derivative world must be a stable one, not to mention a tenth place. Coupled with two years of training, his attributes and actual combat abilities have been greatly improved. Subconsciously, Xin Lai Rai even had the idea that the difficulty of the derivative world was no more than this.

But the previous encounter slapped him hard.

04296 had clearly warned him many times that the most dangerous people in the paradise would never be the powerful local characters, but the contractors from the paradise like him, but he still fell into this trap.

The contractor named the Executioner... was obviously in the evil ghost camp with a huge advantage, but he still calculated his actions so carefully. Looking back at himself, just because he didn't notice any trace of the contractor in two years, he... By default, he is the only contractor left in this derivative world.

Fortunately, he survived. As long as he is alive, there is always a chance.

Xin Lailai looked at the crows that crowed in the sky from time to time, and slowly closed his eyes. Just as he was about to use breathing techniques to speed up the recovery of his injuries, a thunder suddenly fell in his mind.

wrong!

Xin Lailai suddenly woke up and looked up at the sky, staring at the few crows that had been following Tanjiro and him since just now. A biting chill rose behind him.

Why did the crow not come down to convey any news even though he was clearly here?
You must know that it has been some time since the battle between him and Ling Yuzi and Laushi. With the delivery ability of the rooks and the reaction speed of the Demon Slayer Squad, it is impossible for him to go so long without any instructions!
After all, why did he think that there were only two lower strings coming to Tengxi Mountain!
"Tanjiro, stop!"

Without any time to delay, Xin Lailai immediately shouted loudly, and at the same time mobilized the mana in his body that had been fully restored by the mana potion, and instantly threw out two magic chips and rushed towards the crow in the sky.

Wow--!
Accompanied by the shrill cry of the crow, the originally silent jungle seemed to suddenly come to life. A large number of black shadows rose into the sky, and then swooped down towards the two of them.

——Those are all crows!

boom! boom! boom!
One after another, the crows slammed into the magic shield desperately, and a bunch of blood blossomed. However, Xin Lailai ignored the interference of these crows, and instead held the only half of the Sun Lun Dao. Staring straight ahead.

"Brother Lai Lai, there is a very bad smell in front. Could it be..."

Tanjiro suddenly noticed something, remembered what Xin Lailai had said, and immediately reacted.

"Well, it's Twelve...get out of the way!"

Xin Lailai nodded with a serious expression. Just when he was halfway through speaking, warning signs surged in his heart. He instinctively kicked Tanjiro away without thinking too much, and rolled to the side to hide.

boom!
The twisted air cannon penetrated the position where the two people were originally standing and hit a big tree behind them, instantly blasting the thick tree surrounded by six people into two pieces.

"Look what I found? Two delicious humans!"

"The guy wearing earrings should be the person you are looking for, and this guy is probably the special ghost-killing swordsman that you want us to be careful about."

Sharp and harsh laughter came from the darkness ahead, and two figures were seen slowly walking out of the darkness.

One figure's face was covered with a huge I-shaped pattern, his head was raised upright, and the word "Xialu" was engraved on his left eye.

The other figure has a round head, a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, three crossed scars on his face, and the word "下三" engraved on his left eye. At the same time, he is holding a figure wearing a yellow and white coat in his hand.

And almost at the same time that Xin Lailai looked over, he saw the evil ghost with cross scars suddenly smiled ferociously, his palm suddenly exerted force, and with a click, the figure in the opponent's hand turned into a corpse.

——Xiaxianzhilu·Fu Nui.

——Xiaxian No. [-]·Sick leaves.

After confirming the incoming enemy, Xin Lailai's heart gradually sank to the bottom, and when he saw the corpse in Bing Ye's hands, a sense of despair emerged in his heart.

My wife Zenitsu, one of the three protagonists in the original work, was declared dead. [*Warning: The plot of the derivative world has undergone serious changes. Contractors must ensure that the main character of the derivative world, Tanjiro Kamado, survives! ! 】

[*Warning: If Tanjiro Kamado dies, the difficulty of the contractor's main mission will be greatly increased, and the world difficulty will be directly increased to the limit of the derived world! ! 】

As if mocking his incompetence, Paradise's warning popped up in front of Xin Lailai's eyes. Xin Lailai gritted his teeth as he looked at Paradise's warning and the two ghosts in front of him.

"Human, you seem to know this guy?"

The pungent smell of blood came, and Sick Ye seemed to have misunderstood Xin Lailai's thoughts, thinking that Xin Lailai was irritated by the corpse in his hand. He grinned and gnawed hard at the corpse in his hand.

"How about it, human? How does it feel to watch the brains of your companions flying everywhere in front of your eyes?"

A large amount of blood mixed with yellow and white liquid splashed onto the already ferocious face of the sick leaf. The sick leaf shook the corpse in his hands, looked at Xin Lailai who was staring at him, and laughed wantonly.

Xin Lailai looked at everything in front of him expressionlessly, while Tanjiro on the side clenched the Nichirin sword tightly in his hand, his face as dark as water.

Desperate.

In his current state, it is impossible to win the cooperation between two Xixian

In the final analysis, in terms of frontal strength, he is actually not much better than Lihua Luokanahu who died in the hands of Ling Yuzi. If it were not a fluke, let alone killing the windmill, he would not be able to pass Ling Yuzi's level alone.

"That guy...didn't he intend to leave any way to survive from the beginning?"

Four lower strings are facing a group of ghost-killing swordsmen who have not even passed the test, and a contractor who has only experienced the trial world once. This kind of battle...

What kind of ecstasy did that guy called the Executioner give Wuhan to get such great power?

"calm down!"

Xin Lailai's brain was thinking frantically about the possibility of breaking the situation.

One second, two seconds...

In a daze, Xin Lailai even felt that the whole world had slowed down, and thoughts flashed through his mind. His mind had never felt so clear for a moment.

Finally, he suddenly looked at Tanjiro who was standing aside. Without any hesitation, he rushed out, slashed at the diseased leaf with a knife and shouted loudly:

"Tanjiro, run!"

Cut and change the water surface.

The mirror-like light of the sword slashed towards the sick leaf's neck. Tanjiro, who was behind Xin Lai Lai, heard Xin Lai Lai's angry shouts. After being stunned for a moment, he turned around in pain and fled towards the back crazily. go.

"Humans, get out!"

"Haha, Bingye, I'll leave this human to you. I'll go after the guy you're looking for first."

Bing Ye looked at Xin Lai Lai who suddenly rushed towards him and Tanjiro who ran away decisively. He raised his right hand, blocked Xin Lai Lai's attack and kicked Xin Lai Lai on the waist.

Seeing this, Kamon on the side didn't have the slightest idea of ​​helping. Instead, he laughed and taunted Bing Ye, and immediately chased after Tanjiro who was escaping.

Bang!
With a blast, the shield built by the spell chip was kicked to pieces by Bing Ye. The scene in Bing Ye's imagination of Xin Lailai being kicked to pieces by his own kick did not appear. He stepped in mid-air and hit Bian Ye sharply on the forehead with a side kick.

Waterwheel · Modification.

The life energy exploded along the spell chip attached to the sole of the foot. Half of the face of Bingye Bingye, who did not react, began to undergo huge deformation with the distortion of the air, and finally the whole body spun and flew out.

"You bastard!"

The sick leaf that had been kicked away adjusted its posture in mid-air, clinging to a big tree with its limbs, staring at Xin Lailai with no look of contempt in its eyes.

"Okay, that guy's request is that he must be captured alive, which is quite troublesome for me, but you don't have to worry so much!"

Bing Ye smiled ferociously, and the three scars on his face made his smile look extremely ferocious.

Xin Lailai did not speak, but put back the half-length Nichirin Sword in his hand into the scabbard on his waist. At the same time, he raised his left hand. The Nichirin Sword held tightly in the hands of the body of my wife Zenitsu beside him was controlled by the magic chip and flew away. into his hands.

Just as he guessed, even though they seemed to be traveling together, there was no real cooperation between these strings.

As long as he lets Tanjiro escape while dragging the diseased leaves, the remaining Kama Nui will definitely abandon the sick leaves and pursue Tanjiro under the temptation of taking the reward for himself.

After all, in their view, there is no suspense between one-on-one and two-on-two.

But for Xin Lailai, dividing the battlefield is the most important thing.

The derivative world is not a game, and the enemy is not a dull NPC. In a two-on-two situation, if the opponent focuses on Tanjiro first and then Tanjiro, they will have no chance of winning due to the disparity in frontal strength.

Therefore, Xin Lailai chose to gamble.

In the original work, facing the opponent's tiredness, with the help of Yadouzi, Tanjiro lost to the opponent by one step.

Fu Nue's blood ghost technique is to control beasts. This is not a combat type of blood ghost technique. In a ghost place like Tengxi Mountain where there are no other birds and beasts except crows, the opponent's strength is equivalent to a blank slate. , the strength should be almost the same as that of the Xuxian team in the original work, which divides their own ghost blood, and is even more likely to be two points weaker.

Therefore, Xin Lai was betting that Tanjiro, as the protagonist, could face the Kama Nui of the Land of Shitatsu alone, and under the pressure of death and worries about him, he could recreate a plot similar to the one in the original work against the Shitatsu group. In one scene, he mastered the Sun's Breathing technique in advance, killed Fu Nui, and still had enough energy to support his side.

And the most crucial point:

——That is whether he can survive until Tanjiro returns with support.

Xin Lailai stepped forward, his torn robes rustling in the wind, and the blade cut through the air, slashing towards the diseased leaves.

"Hahaha, come on, human, I promise to blow your head off until there's not even a bit of scum left!"

Seeing this, Bing Ye kicked off his feet. Driven by the air bullets, he laughed wildly and stretched out his five fingers to grab Xin Lailai's head.

boom!
Under the night, a steel-like collision exploded in the mountain forest, and the interlaced sparks reflected Xin Lailai's cold face and the crazy smile on Sick Ye's face.

Fight to the death, Kai!
