Chapter 668: Ye Cheng and Wu Zan meet again
Feelings of anger and resentment filled his brain, but just as Tanjiro was about to rush towards the other party, Ye Cheng's previous instructions suddenly echoed in his mind.

Looking around, Tanjiro looked at the large number of ordinary people around him, and finally after exhaling, he forced himself to calm down.

Tanjiro also didn't expect that the cannibal ghost, Yecheng's "target", was the culprit who massacred his entire family.

Although Tanjiro wanted to take revenge immediately, he was also very clear that if he took action in such a busy city, many innocent people would be implicated.

It was not Tanjiro's intention to make others go through the same experience as himself just for his own hatred.

Moreover, the other party is a cannibal that even Mr. Yecheng is quite afraid of, which means that the other party's strength is extraordinary. It should not be an easy task for one to successfully take revenge on his own.

After sorting out his thoughts, Tanjiro could only stand still. After calming down, he finally showed a natural expression and slowly walked towards Muzan Kibutsuji holding Nezuko's hand.

As for Muzan Kibutsuji, he is now using the alias Tsukihiko and has a wife named Lijie and a daughter.

The identity of "Tsukihiko" is naturally just a disguised identity of Muzan Kibutsuji, because he does not want to be questioned why he cannot stand in the sun.

As for the so-called wife and daughter, they are nothing more than tools for Muzan, and sometimes they may even become emergency food.

Muzan, who has lived for thousands of years, has no idea how many wives he has. Cruel and ruthless by nature, he naturally would not be bound by such emotional shackles.

And the longer you live, the more afraid you are of death. Why is Muzan Kibutsuji so strong? Ultimately, a big part of the reason is his desire for life.

In order to disguise his identity and maintain his personality, Muzan today still happily went out for a walk with his wife and daughter.

However, soon, a young boy and a girl who walked past him caught his attention.

The boy's head was completely covered by the scarf, so Muzan Kibutsuji couldn't see his appearance clearly, but there was no way he didn't recognize the uniform and the Nichirin Sword of his old rival, the Demon Slayer Corps.

As the ancestor of demons and having lived for thousands of years, Muzan Kibutsuji didn't care too much about a mere little demon from the Demon Slayer Corps.

However, when he saw the girl next to the boy, Muzan Kibutsuji was stunned on the spot.

Because as the King of Ghosts, he naturally could not tell that the girl next to the boy was a cannibal ghost, and that there was no bloody smell on her body.

The members of the Demon Slayer Corps and the cannibals can go shopping hand in hand? How did the world suddenly become something that even Muzan Kibutsuji couldn't understand?

And that girl is obviously a cannibal. How can she not devour flesh and blood but still remain rational?

It has to be said that when Tanjiro and his sister passed in front of Muzan Kibutsuji, he did become interested in the two of them, just as Ye Cheng had expected.

However, Ye Cheng overestimated Muzan Kibutsuji's courage and caution.

Ever since he was almost killed by Tsugaru Yoshiichi, our Lord Ghost King, although very strong, is also quite cowardly.

Although Tanjiro and his sister attracted the attention of Muzan Kibutsuji, he had no intention of taking action personally.

Instead, he used an excuse to lure his wife and daughter over, and then called on Susamaru and Yabayaba, two man-eating demons who thought they were the Twelve Kizuki, to capture Tanjiro and his sister alive.

After Susamaru and Yabayaba left, three drunkards broke into the alley and recklessly provoked Muzan Kibutsuji.

The dignified Ghost King was mocked by a drunkard, saying that "his face was pale, as if he would not live long."

As a result, Muzan Kibutsuji broke through the defense and made a move, letting the three people see who was really going to die soon. Muzan Kibutsuji shook off the blood on his claws with a gloomy face, and a sense of uneasiness and irritability inexplicably rose in his heart.

However, just as he was thinking about leaving this troubled place as soon as possible, a figure suddenly appeared at the other end of the alley and slowly said, "What those drunkards said just now was right.

You don't look very good today. I'm afraid you won't be alive soon."

The initial bait plan went wrong, and Tanjiro and his sister failed to lure Muzan Kibutsuji into the wilderness.

But the plan cannot be considered a complete failure. After all, Muzan Kibutsuji did become interested in Tanjiro and his sister, and came to this deserted place to summon his subordinates.

The two man-eating demons summoned by Muzan Kibutsuji are of mediocre strength and are not at the level of the Twelve Demon Moons at all, so Ye Cheng is very reassured about the situation on Tanjiro's side.

As for him, he had finally caught Muzan Kibutsuji alone, so naturally he would not miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

"I see. Were you the baits for that brother and sister?"

When he saw Night City appear in the alley, Muzan Kibutsuji, who had lived for thousands of years, naturally realized in an instant that he had been tricked.

"Yes, I originally planned to let the brother and sister lead you to a farther place, but I didn't expect that the Demon King Muzan Kibutsuji would be so cautious...

Or maybe you are more afraid of death than I thought?"

Although Muzan Kibutsuji looked unhappy in response to Ye Cheng's ridicule, he did not say much. What surprised him even more was that Ye Cheng could recognize him at a glance.

You should know that the name of the ancestor of demons, Muzan Kibutsuji, is not a secret, but not many people know it.

And even the members of the Demon Slayer Corps have never seen his true face.

He also cursed all the cannibals, and if they said anything related to him, they would commit suicide instantly.

He, Muzan Kibutsuji, holds the power of life and death over all cannibals. Except for a few traitors, no cannibal can betray him.

This should be the first time that Ye Cheng saw him, but he was able to recognize him directly, which surprised Muzan Kibutsuji.

"You seem quite surprised that I could recognize you at first sight?
But strictly speaking, this shouldn't be the first time we've met, right? Didn't the Ghost King come to my village and visit me two years ago?"

Hearing what Ye Cheng said, Muzan Kibutsuji took off the bowler hat on his head, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Ye Cheng suddenly became more solemn.

Muzan Kibutsuji never expected that two years ago he just looked at the other party from a distance, but the other party actually noticed his presence.

And through Ye Cheng's explanation, Muzan Kibutsuji now understands why Ye Cheng was able to find him.

This man possesses some kind of perception ability. Because I had sensed his breath before, I was able to instantly feel his presence when I came to Asakusa this time.

"A tricky ability, coupled with the dangerous aura emanating from you.

To be honest, if possible, I really don’t want to be your enemy, because it will not be good for either of us.”
