I started with Emperor Armor and conquered Infinity.

Chapter 86 Muzan

Lin Yao looked at their expectant eyes and his heart stirred slightly.

He had no intention of joining the Demon Slayer Corps or becoming someone else's subordinate.

However, if Lin Yao were to eliminate Muzan and gain the loyalty of Ubuyashiki Kagaya and the Demon Slayer Corps, he would be quite willing.

……

Far away in a dark and secluded place, Muzan sat quietly cross-legged on the ground, sipping tea.

"This is……"

Suddenly, he paused slightly. Through that mysterious blood connection, an ominous premonition surged into his heart like a tide, and he subconsciously knocked over the teacup in his hand.

Immediately afterwards, a terrifying image appeared in his mind.

A man shrouded in mist raised his hand and killed Doma, the Upper Moon Two.

"How could this be? How is this possible? When did the Demon Slayer Corps become so terrifying?"

Doma's memories after encountering the being who could kill him are hazy and indistinct, as if they were interfered with or destroyed by something.

Muzan was completely baffled by this, and his anxiety and anger towards this unexpected event were palpable.

However, the memory of Doma fighting Kanae Kocho clearly surfaced in Muzan's mind.

Seeing Kanae's familiar uniform, it was clear that she was a Pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps.

Therefore, Muzan guessed that the mysterious person was likely a terrifying being cultivated by the Demon Slayer Corps over the years, whose strength far surpassed that of ordinary Pillars.

"The Demon Slayer Corps is impressive. They've been hiding their true strength and deceiving me all these years, and now they've directly cultivated such terrifying beings."

Fortunately, Douma attacked that flower pillar, forcing the guy to retaliate. Otherwise, if we had waited a few more years, wouldn't that man have returned?

Thinking of this, Muzan frowned, his face turned extremely gloomy, as if water could drip from it, his heart filled with anger and unease.

Those blood-red eyes flickered with a variety of emotions: anger, fear, unease, hatred, and so on.

"Nakome, activate the Infinite Castle."

Muzan suppressed the complex emotions in his heart. His body, which had been trembling slightly because of thinking of Yoriichi Tsugikuni, slowly recovered a little, and then he immediately called a meeting.

Infinite city.

This is a strange space constructed with various complex patterns, creating a terrifying effect similar to an infinite loop.

Unless it is smashed or obtained through a special channel, ordinary people will only get lost here.

"Clang..."

Accompanied by a zither melody, numerous ghosts, rarely seen outside, appeared in the Infinite City, filling the air with a tense and oppressive atmosphere.

The Upper and Lower Moon demons were filled with doubt and uncertainty, wondering why Muzan had suddenly summoned them and whether something major had happened.

When the demon closest to the Infinite City stepped onto the steps of the Infinite City, the entire space seemed to be enveloped by an invisible pressure.

Wearing a black suit, Muzan sat high on the stage with an extremely gloomy face, with his alias Sona beside him.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Muzan slowly stood up, looked around, and said in a deep voice.

"That good-for-nothing Doma was taken care of by the Demon Slayer Corps."

Muzan's voice appeared calm, but it suppressed endless rage.

At the same time, each word struck like a heavy hammer against the chests of these people, making them cry out in their hearts that it was impossible.

It's important to know that Doma's strength is second only to Kokushibo and Muzan.

How could power accumulated over hundreds of years be destroyed by a human who is less than 100 years old?

Even Kokushibo, the Upper Moon One whose strength was closest to Doma's, and Akaza, the Upper Moon Three, had a slight change in expression at this moment.

If someone from the Demon Slayer Corps was able to kill Doma, then they are very likely to pose a significant threat to the Demon Slayer Corps.

"I've been silent for so many years, letting those guys in the Demon Slayer Corps not know how terrifying I am. I'll see who's really courting death."

Muzan noticed the changes in Kokushibo and Akaza's expressions, his eyes flickered slightly, and the aura he exuded grew stronger.

Under such terrifying pressure, there was no difference between the upper and lower moons; both remained silent and awaited orders.

In this situation, it's best for these guys, who are controlled by Muzan, to just obediently follow orders.

Only by obeying will you live longer.

"That reckless bastard will suffer the most terrible punishment in the world before I can vent my hatred."

"You all get ready and wait for the opportunity to deliver the fatal blow to this guy..."

Muzan, whose skill in managing subordinates was already unparalleled, offered generous rewards while making his requests.

Whoever can kill Lin Yao will obtain the pure primordial blood within him.

Muzan felt he had a high probability of success with this emerging genius, so he prepared to send people to track Lin Yao's whereabouts.

Once discovered, gather intelligence, and everyone attack together to kill him in one fell swoop. We absolutely cannot let Lin Yao recover.

"One Yoriichi Tsugikuni is enough. You are not allowed to possess another Yoriichi Tsugikuni in the future."

Every time he thought of that name, Muzan's eyes trembled slightly, his heart clenched, and he was filled with extreme fear.

It was precisely because of his fear that he was so determined not to let a second Yoriichi Tsugikuni emerge.

"Kuroshibo, Akaza, you two immediately go to the place where Doma died not long ago to check the situation. If that enemy is not in good condition, take action and eliminate him."

As he said this, Muzan turned his gaze to Kokushibo, who had mastered the Breath of the Moon and possessed six eyes, and Akaza, who was squatting in a corner.

Having received their orders, Kokushibo and Akaza nodded without saying anything more. With a flash, they disappeared from the Infinity Castle and sped off towards the place where Doma had died.

……

Just as Lin Yao, along with Kanae and Shinobu, were cleaning up the evil spirits around the town's temple, an uninvited guest arrived.

"Heaven is on my side! I've finally encountered this opportunity. I'm sure I can reap the greatest rewards in this mission world and make those who look down on me kneel down."

A wild voice rang out, and a scarred young man appeared in front of Lin Yao, Kanae Kocho, and Shinobu Kocho, blocking their way.

This guy is none other than He Zhendong, a reincarnated being.

His name seemed unremarkable, but the symmetrical, straight scars on his face and his fierce gaze made him appear incredibly ferocious.

Being ugly is one thing.

As soon as this guy appeared, he stared intently at Kanae and Shinobu Kocho beside him, his gaze burning, but he didn't pay any attention to him at all.

"Ha ha……"

A cold glint flashed in Lin Yao's eyes, and a classic phrase that perfectly matched his inner thoughts unconsciously surfaced in his mind.

"You have a way to die!"

If this guy in front of me weren't in a peaceful world, I could have killed him with a single slap, given his arrogant demeanor.
