Reincarnation as Lower Rank Five in Demon Slayer

Chapter 141 The End of Pero

Hearing Pei Lang's annoying barking and howling, Li Lei's already bad mood worsened.

He hadn't even settled accounts with him for attacking Kanae's family, and he was already so eager to die. Did he really think becoming the Lower Moon Two of the Twelve Demon Moons was so powerful? He had no idea how powerful Li Lei was in front of him.

Faced with Pero's rude behavior, Li Lei didn't want to get involved and wanted to treat Kanae's wounds first. Unexpectedly, Pero showed no martial ethics, picked up a machine gun and prepared to open fire, intending to kill Li Lei and Shinobu's family.

"You can all die!"

As soon as Pero finished speaking, he immediately opened fire. With the pull of the trigger, countless bullets burst out from the machine gun aimed at Li Lei and Kanae's family, accompanied by sparks.

Facing the countless bullets fired from the machine gun in Pei Lang's hand, Li Lei, who was prepared, turned cold. Instantly, a red, water-ripple-shaped alternate dimension gate with a diameter of five meters appeared in front of him.

He devoured every single bullet that came at him from Pero, and after doing so, Li Lei activated his Space Blood Demon Technique again with his will.

Several circular red dimensional exits immediately appeared around Pei Lang, from which more than a dozen red tentacles instantly extended, binding and dragging all the Shadow Wolves that had just emerged around Pei Lang into Li Lei's dimensional space.

"What the hell is this thing?" Pei Lang looked at Li Lei with disbelief. His Shadow Wolf had been easily defeated by the other party, which was a big blow to Pei Lang.

His prized Blood Demon Art, Shadow Wolf, vanished right before his eyes, the process so swift that even Pero couldn't believe it.

Just as Pei Lang was lost in thought, Li Lei appeared in front of him as if by teleportation. He slapped Pei Lang across the face, making Pei Lang's head spin 360 degrees.

Seeing the head spinning and about to stop, Li Lei struck again, raising his hand once more and delivering a powerful slap. The slap landed heavily on Pei Lang's head, the force so great that it shoved Pei Lang's entire head into his chest, making him look like a turtle hiding in its shell.

Only now did Pero realize that there was an invisible gap in strength between himself and the seemingly weak white-haired child in front of him.

Pero found this hard to accept. Why was this kid so much stronger than him when he was the one who was the Twelve Demons?

"This is impossible! This is impossible!!!"

At this moment, Pero was filled with rage. The black shadow beneath him began to cover his entire body from his feet, instantly transforming him into a tall werewolf covered in black shadow.

"Blood Demon Art - Halberd Chamber - War Wolf Formation".

"Go to hell!" Peron raised his claws that covered the shadow and suddenly grabbed at Li Lei.

Facing Pei Lang's attack, Li Lei was full of disdain and easily blocked it with one hand.

"You're too weak! Lower Moon Two, Pero." Li Lei revealed the number 1 in his left eye and mocked.

"You, you are..."

Upon seeing the number in Li Lei's left eye, Pei Lang was about to reveal Li Lei's identity when Li Lei swiftly struck and shattered his wolf-shaped head.

Immediately, the ground beneath Pero transformed into a blood-red spatial vortex, from which several tentacles crawled out, binding Pero in his werewolf form.

"I'll settle the score with you later."

Li Lei shook the blood off his hands, left a message for Pei Lang, and then turned and walked towards Kanae's family.

The headless wolf struggled incessantly, trying to break free from the red tentacles that Li Leiyi stretched out from the sky. However, the difference in strength was too great; the wolf didn't even have the strength to tear off a single tentacle.

As he struggled, Pero was dragged into the alternate dimension beneath him by several tentacles and disappeared without a trace.

Watching Li Lei easily defeat the powerful demon, Shinobu Kocho was in turmoil. She couldn't imagine how a human could possess such power. Li Lei's methods of defeating the demon, both in speed and strength, seemed beyond the capabilities of a normal person; rather, they were more like those of a demon.

Having known Li Lei for so long, she once thought she knew him very well. But now, she suddenly realized she knew nothing about him. She didn't know how he became like this, nor why he possessed such immense power.

The current Li Lei felt unfamiliar to her, and even a little frightening. What had he gone through, and why had he become like this?

Just as Shinobu was lost in thought, Li Lei knelt down in front of Kanae and examined the wound on her shoulder. His eyes were filled with concern and worry.

He carefully and gently lifted Kanae's clothes from her shoulder, revealing a shocking wound that was still bleeding profusely.

"Wait a moment, I'll heal you right now."

Li Lei smiled at Kanae and placed his hand on her injured shoulder. He used his Blood Demon Art to remove the bullet and then used a small amount of his own flesh to repair her shoulder.

Kanae, feeling the pain in her shoulder subside, looked at Li Lei's face, wanting to see what the Lower Moon Two had actually seen. However, the numbers in Li Lei's eyes had already been hidden again.

Kanae, having seen nothing amiss, didn't question Li Lei. She knew this was intentional on Li Lei's part; he didn't want to damage their current relationship, and she wouldn't delve into it.

"I'm tired, I'm a little sleepy, can I lean on you for a bit?" Kanae suddenly said for some reason.

"Okay!" Li Lei nodded in agreement to Kanae's small request.

With Li Lei's permission, Kanae felt light and fell into his arms, drifting off to sleep.

At this moment, she was utterly exhausted, both physically and mentally. The long battle had pushed her body beyond its limits. She had been battling fatigue the entire time.

However, when she saw Li Lei, an indescribable sense of security welled up inside her. His resolute gaze and warm smile gave her an unprecedented feeling of peace. Beside him, she felt as if she had found a safe harbor, a place where she could let down her guard.

Li Lei gently held her, sensing her exhaustion and weariness. He didn't speak, but silently stayed by her side, his fingers gently stroking her hair, as if conveying a sense of peace to her.

In this atmosphere, her breathing gradually calmed down, and her body relaxed. She entered a wonderful dream, where she forgot all her worries and fatigue, and only felt endless warmth and comfort.

Shinobu Kocho, watching this scene, felt inexplicably unhappy. She couldn't pinpoint the reason, but she just felt it wasn't appropriate for them to be hugging like that.
