Chapter 90 Infinite City Construction Plan (1) Where to go...
Where to go, Yan Sheng didn't know.
He gritted his teeth, completely ignoring his physical fatigue. He even forgot to bring his Sun Blade. He just carried his friend, who had transformed into a ghost, through the woods, carefully avoiding the sunlight.
It’s just that ghosts are afraid of sunlight, not just the sunlight that shines directly on the body. The moment the sun comes out, ashes begin to appear on Suzuki Kawa’s body.
However, the ghost blood in the body stubbornly covered it with the newly grown flesh and blood.
Burning and rebirth appeared again and again. Yan Shengyi lowered his head and felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife.
He trotted like a headless fly, not knowing where to go. He just wanted to find a place where there was no light, so that Suzuki Kawa would not suffer from the pain of sunburn.
The woods also have an end, and his steps froze at the boundary where the sunlight passed.
With such a big movement, Suzuki Chuan also cooperated and woke up. His face was pale, and he just patted Yan Sheng's arm: "You can go."
"The humerus of the Demon Slayer Corps should not be associated with demons."
Suzuki Kawa raised his eyes, the bottom of his eyes had turned blood red. He could hide the fact that he had turned into a ghost for a while, but he could not hide it forever.
In fact, if the incident had not happened suddenly last night, he would have been planning with the system to keep it secret for a few years, which would not be impossible with the help of the props in the system mall.
The manipulation of the ghost blood last night had completed his transformation into a ghost. He had not yet turned into ashes, relying solely on the energy of the ghost blood in his body and the items exchanged from the system mall to withstand it.
The system has disappeared, and now it’s all up to Suzuki Kawa to make the decision.
He took a fancy to an item in the system mall called [Escape Plan]. It was expensive and very effective. It could form a new memory in the mind of the user.
Now he grabbed Yan Sheng's arm and struggled to get to the ground. His thin body seemed no different from before, except that he was covered in the smell of medicine, and there was no smell of rotten flesh and blood that Yan Sheng had smelled when he killed ghosts.
That’s right, Xiaochuan has never eaten a human, so how could there be such a fishy smell.
"Go back, Yan Sheng." The boy's voice was the same as always, but with a bit more urgency.
Jiguo Yansheng stared at Suzuki Kawa in a daze. The great changes in recent days had made him dazed. Only when he met those purple eyes did he regain some composure.
When he visited Suzuki Kawa last night, he was still thinking that after Suzuki Kawa got better, the two of them would fight side by side again, even if it was just going out for fun and shopping together, he was full of hope.
How come everything changed overnight?
Suzuki Kawa looked much calmer. He took a step back and stood at the edge of the sunlight. With his back to the light, his face became dark.
He activated the prop without hesitation.
It takes some time to launch [Escape Plan]. Suzuki Kawa carefully arranged a new memory, stripping away those scenes of deep affection and loyalty, hoping that Yan Sheng could accept the fact of his death as soon as possible.
He raised his hand, covered Yan Sheng's eyes, and whispered, "I'm sorry."
Yan Sheng's lips trembled, and he fainted without uttering a word.
Suzuki Kawa slowly knelt down and looked down at the boy with dark circles under his eyes.
If the Ghost King had not suddenly appeared and disrupted his plans, he would have wanted to continue walking with Yan Sheng.
Over the past decade or so, apart from the brief bad times in Jiguo Mansion, Yan Sheng's mood has actually not been bad.
During his time in the Demon Slayer Corps, he devoted himself to studying swordsmanship and practicing martial arts, while Suzuki Kawa stayed by his side, joking and joking, and they spent day after day having fun together.
The system scolds Suzuki Chuan every day for not caring about Yan Sheng's life or death. In fact, he is the one who can best sense Yan Sheng's emotional changes and has a sense of balance in his heart.
Before last night, he was still standing firmly on the other side of that degree, feeling that there was still a way.
However, after the transformation into a ghost was completely completed, no matter how powerful the prop mall was, it could not withstand Suzuki Kawa's consumption of changing a set of defensive armor every ten minutes. The only reason he could stand here safely was because of the defensive armor that could withstand the sunlight.
Time is running out.
Suzuki Kawa lowered his eyes and looked at Yan Sheng, who was frowning even though he was unconscious.
Those happy and beautiful times gradually faded away because of Suzuki Kawa's injury and autism. The Yan Sheng in his memory did not understand his decadence, and after several attempts to talk to Suzuki Kawa, they failed and parted ways unhappily.
He turned his attention to studying the breathing sword technique.
The two people also fell into a cold war and gradually drifted apart.
One day, when Suzuki Kawa went out to buy medicine with others, he was killed by a ghost on the way, and not even his body was left.
After hearing the news, Yan Sheng was stunned for a long time before putting down the sword.
After checking again to see if there were any loopholes, Suzuki Kawa himself was unsure, and the system was not there, so his brain was a little insufficient.
The young man stood up and brushed off the dust on his body. He didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but the sunlight behind him became hotter and hotter, and his face was a little distorted.
He would definitely run into Yin and the others if he walked back. After walking for a while, he entered a more lush forest. Then he simply asked Cheng Ji to open the Infinite City and let him in.
Having made up his mind, Suzuki Kawa turned around and slowly walked into the sunlight.
The once warm and gentle light has now turned into something like magma, pouring buckets of it on his body. He exchanged it for painkillers and walked towards the forest without changing his expression.
The system was not around, so he naturally did not see Jiguo Yansheng lying on the ground. He opened his eyes with difficulty, and in the ray of color, he only saw his figure drowned in the dazzling sunlight.
Then he completely fainted.
On the other side, Suzuki Kawa finally walked into the forest and frantically shook Cheng Ji to open the door for him. Cheng Ji had just placed the body of the Ghost King and after receiving Suzuki Kawa's location, she hurriedly opened a door.
Suzuki Kawa appeared in the Infinite City in a disheveled state.
Cheng Ji was shocked and asked him anxiously if he was attacked by surprise.
Suzuki Chuan touched his face and waved his hand: "Nothing serious, just got out in the sun for an hour or so and I'm not feeling well."
He estimated that he would need to recuperate for a while.
Hearing Suzukigawa's words, Shirohime was startled again and asked cautiously, "Sir, did you take a walk under the sun?"
Ghosts will turn into ashes immediately when they come into contact with sunlight!
Has Suzuki-sama's strength reached the point where he can withstand the sun?!
Cheng Ji's heart was extremely excited. No wonder Lord Suzuki could restrain the Ghost King and force him into a sleeping state. It turned out that Lord Suzuki was so powerful.
Even if she owned an entire Infinite City and had a huge amount of room to operate, she would never dare to say that she could touch the sunlight, not even for a second!
A respectful expression appeared on her face, and her words were filled with subtle flattery. She said, "Your Excellency can settle down here. The utensils in the room are ready. They look like they were built more than ten years ago, so they shouldn't affect your use."
"There's still water in there. I collected some in the mountains. It's just a little cold, and it doesn't look very clean."
Suzuki Chuan was walking in front and said nonchalantly, "Just go find a few little ghosts to do the chores. When it gets dark outside, walk carefully and far away, summon the little ghosts, and they will respond."
After a pause, he continued, "Your rank is higher than theirs, so you should have no problem manipulating them."
"Yes." Cheng Ji opened her eyes slightly and said excitedly.
It is not uncommon for high-level ghosts to enslave low-level ghosts, but they have to provide some support while enslaving them so that the little ghosts don't starve to death.
However, high-level ghosts always like to be alone, and none of them like to enjoy life. Perhaps it is because most of them were born as ordinary people when they were human beings, and they would not think about this when they become ghosts.
Moreover, many ghosts are arrogant and will not tolerate other ghosts appearing in the area of their own designated lairs.
Maybe it was because she was transformed by Suzuki Kawa, but Cheng Ji's mind was different from those rude cannibals. She was determined to follow Suzuki Kawa and devoted all her thoughts to enriching the Infinite City and strengthening Suzuki Kawa's subordinates.
After all, it was the first transformation, and Suzuki Kawa accidentally leaked some of his memories. Perhaps Shirohime had a complicated relationship with Suzuki Kawa when she was still a human. Shirohime got a glimpse of the prosperity of the Suzuki family and the successor country, and her heart was surging.
Humans can expand their territory and establish themselves as kings. Lord Suzuki is now very powerful and has the Ghost King firmly in his hands. He must also recruit those wild ghosts.
When Suzuki Kawa went to clean himself up, he had no idea that Shirohime had planned so much.
He is not the kind of person who casually pries into the thoughts of his subordinates.
It doesn't matter whether he knows or not. Now Cheng Ji is a bit like his housekeeper, managing the entire huge but empty Infinite City. It is only right to catch some ghosts to fill it up.
When Suzuki Kawa changed into a plain white kimono and tidied himself out, Shirohime came forward and bowed before Suzuki Kawa called out, "Where is Muzan's body? Take me there."
When Cheng Ji heard this, countless thoughts flashed through her mind, but she immediately moved to the side and said, "I have already moved Master Muzan's room to the next door."
Suzuki Kawa raised his eyebrows, walked over and opened the door. Inside was a room that could be seen through at a glance. Muzan's body was lying quietly on the bed, and the suture line on his forehead was particularly conspicuous.
"Do you have a knife? Bring me a bowl." Suzuki Kawa ordered, turning his head.
When Shirohime received the message from Suzuki Kawa asking her to place Muzan's body, she had already prepared these daily necessities.
She still had some human thinking and felt that in order to take care of a body, she had to prepare these things.
Isn’t it useful now?
Cheng Ji went out for a while and came back soon, presenting a dagger and a wooden bowl.
Suzuki Kawa took it and walked towards Muzan's body.
There was no soul occupying the body. If the cannibal had no breathing or heartbeat, Cheng Ji would have noticed the abnormality long ago.
He squatted down, put the bowl on the ground, grabbed the Ghost King's wrist, and slashed at him without hesitation.
The ghost king's blood, with a strange smell, dripped along the blade into the wooden bowl.
Cheng Ji, who was standing next to her, opened her eyes wide in horror.
She was afraid that the Ghost King would wake up halfway and start a war with Suzuki Kawa.
Fortunately, until Suzuki Kawa received a full bowl of blood, the Ghost King showed no signs of waking up.
Suzukikawa threw away the wrist that automatically stopped bleeding, put the knife on the bowl, and stood up.
The young man's tone sounded nonchalantly: "Drink this bowl of blood. Don't run around outside for the next few years. Pick a few little ghosts to come in. It will be enough for you."
Cheng Ji was really like being hit by a big surprise from the sky. She looked at Suzuki Kawa's actions and thought that he was going to use it for himself or do some experiments.
But I never expected that it would be used on myself!
Her voice trembled for a moment: "Thank you very much, sir!"
Suzuki Kawa waved his hand. They were all his property anyway, and the Ghost King's blood could regenerate itself. The pile of hearts in his body were no joke.
"I will recuperate during this time, Cheng Ji, and I will leave the Infinite City to you."
Cheng Ji quickly expressed her loyalty: "I will never let anyone disturb you, my lord."
Suzuki Kawa was planning to go out and return to the room prepared for him by Shirohime. Before leaving, he took another look at Muzan's body lying on the bed. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but the facial features of the body seemed to have changed a little.
Has your face changed?
He muttered and went back to his room.
Since Suzuki Kawa gave the order, Shirohime also wanted to perform well. The lifespan of a ghost is long, so a few years is nothing.
But since Suzuki-sama told me not to go out, I have to be careful when I go out to select the little ghosts this time, Shirohime thought.
She picked up the bowl of blood and drank it with great piety. In the blink of an eye, her body was filled with strength. After clearly feeling that her rank had been raised again, Cheng Ji's heart was burning.
At the same time, she also mastered a new skill in the Infinite City.
On the other side, Suzuki Kawa, who was just about to lift the quilt to sleep, paused and a strange light flashed in his eyes.
In Shirohime's Infinite Castle, you can now adjust the flow of time.
This is really a bit excessive.
Suzuki Kawa didn't know that, to a certain extent, the concentration of his blood was even higher than Muzan's, and it was mixed with a lot of private goods produced by the system. As a result, the blood demon art of the Johji who was transformed by him also underwent a secondary mutation.
Now his depressed mood because of Yan Sheng was finally relieved a little. He thought about getting a good sleep first. The price of sunbathing cannot be easily written off.
By the time he woke up, the blood that was given to Cheng Ji would probably have been replenished by the Ghost King's heart.
Suzuki Kawa was very satisfied. Before going to bed, he even opened the system panel and carefully looked at his data.
Those rows of data all remained at a new high. It should be that his body showed signs of strengthening after he turned into a ghost, and his physique, which was originally close to negative, also improved.
Suzuki Kawa even lamented why he didn't become a ghost earlier.
But he quickly put these aside and started planning how to build the Infinite City.
Yan Sheng is still in the Demon Slayer Corps. No matter what, he must live a glorious life and there is no rush for him to become a demon.
Let’s wait until Yan Sheng officially joins his Infinite City.
Suzuki Kawa was thinking happily.
