After all nine Hashira had gathered, everyone's eyes focused on Lin Tian.
This included Hellish Blizzard as well.
Looking at everyone, Lin Tian noticed that Tanjiro's group of three had not yet arrived. He realized that at their speed, it would probably take them at least two or three days to get here from Mount Sagiri.
"Sigh~, I'll go pick a few people up first. You all wait here a moment."
After speaking, Lin Tian left directly, heading in the direction of Mount Sagiri.
Thinking that they might have already set out, Lin Tian kept an eye out for any figures.
Meanwhile, Shinobu and the others were exchanging the information they had gathered.
As they talked, they couldn't help but fall silent.
After all, their job was to kill demons. Now that Muzan Kibutsuji was dead, all demons would disappear. What were they supposed to do?
They had been detached from society for too long. Integrating back into it... would be difficult!
Of course, this excluded people like Kyojuro Rengoku and Tengen Uzui, who had families.
Kagaya Ubuyashiki looked at the harmonious scene and smiled. How many years had it been! He never thought his family's wish would be fulfilled in his lifetime.
.....
Before long, a giant tornado in the distance slowly approached them.
Seeing this, the people present were first a little puzzled, then became vigilant. "What is this?"
Although they had seen tornadoes before, for one to appear on such a clear day was definitely not normal!
But before they could attack, the tornado slowly dissipated, and there were four people at the top!?
Seeing Lin Tian descend from the tornado with three other people, everyone present was dumbfounded, including the people in the live-stream room!
[Sister Looking for Her Brother: You can ride tornadoes?]
[Nether Spirit Cat: That's truly incredible!]
[Emperor Through the Ages: He has completely conquered a natural disaster!]
[Silly Girl: So cool!]
[Sister Looking for Her Brother: I've decided! I'm going to try it too!]
[Silly Girl: Ying! Don't do anything stupid!]
[Sister Looking for Her Brother: I'm Ying (荧)! Not Ying (莹)! And anyway, I'm gonna do it!]
....
And the people on the scene, seeing Lin Tian command a tornado, felt it was even more incredible.
'So wind can be used like that? It seems my comprehension is still too low!' Hellish Blizzard thought to herself when she saw Lin Tian's maneuver. She also decided to give it a try when she got back!
"Mr. Lin Tian is so handsome! I like him so much! So much!" Mitsuri Kanroji's eyes were filled with hearts, her face blushing as she looked at the god-like Lin Tian.
Obanai Iguro, who noticed Mitsuri's gaze, felt his own eyes darken, but ultimately said nothing.
'This guy... is he really that strong? He can even tame natural disasters!' Sanemi Shinazugawa became deeply aware of the gap between them.
....
Lin Tian brought Tanjiro, Nezuko, and Sakonji Urokodaki over to the group.
"Alright, everyone who should be here is here. If you have any questions, ask them now." As he spoke, Lin Tian looked at the Hashira present.
The Hashira exchanged glances but ultimately said nothing.
"Hmm? What's wrong? Didn't you all want to ask me questions just now? Especially the Water Hashira and the Sound Hashira!"
As he spoke, Lin Tian looked at Giyuu Tomioka and Tengen Uzui.
But to his surprise, the two of them also shook their heads.
In the end, it was Kagaya Ubuyashiki who spoke up, "Lord Lin Tian, we do not wish to know what happened. Telling us would not be of much use. Now that Muzan Kibutsuji is dead, everyone will be returning to a peaceful life."
Hearing Kagaya's words and seeing the expressions on the Hashira's faces, Lin Tian nodded and said nothing.
At this moment, Tanjiro, who was standing to the side, spoke up, "Um... I'd actually like to know what happened."
Hearing Tanjiro speak, the gazes of the other Hashira all focused on the young man.
Just as Lin Tian was about to explain, the chat group sent a notification.
[The group task is complete. Members will be returned to their respective worlds. Ten minutes remaining.]
Hearing the group's notification, Lin Tian was helpless. He could only shrug and say, "There's nothing to be done. I have to go back. I'll have to let someone else answer your questions."
Hearing Lin Tian's words, Nezuko and Mitsuri Kanroji immediately became flustered.
"What do we do! What do we do! Lord Lin Tian is going back!"
Nezuko, however, was more direct.
She trotted over to Lin Tian's side and said, "Can... I... go... back... with... you?"
Seeing Nezuko's pleading eyes, Lin Tian didn't answer her right away, first asking her to wait a moment.
Then, Lin Tian began to search in the Group Shop.
"Found it! This is it."
[Travel Talisman: Allows one person to travel between worlds. 100 points/talisman]
Seeing that there were indeed Travel Talismans for sale, Lin Tian nodded at the expectant Nezuko.
Before Nezuko could get happy, Lin Tian spoke again, "But what about your brother?"
Hearing Lin Tian's words, Nezuko also looked at Tanjiro, who was staring blankly at her.
Just as Nezuko was struggling with her decision, one of the others who heard that it was possible to go to Lin Tian's world also had an idea.
Mitsuri Kanroji walked up to Lin Tian and asked, "Mr. Lin Tian! Excuse me! Can I go to your world too?"
Lin Tian was a little surprised to see this pink-haired girl willing to go back with him.
('It seems that at this point, Mitsuri Kanroji hasn't fallen for Obanai Iguro yet.')
"Mm, you can!" Lin Tian nodded, agreeing to Mitsuri's request.
"That's great!" Hearing Lin Tian agree, Mitsuri jumped for joy.
And beside them, the still-conflicted Nezuko saw how easily Mitsuri could go to Lin Tian's world, and her eyes filled with anxiety, confusion, and a hint of hostility.
"Why... big sister, why would you... just agree... to go to another world? Won't you miss... your family?" This was what Nezuko was most confused about.
Hearing the little sister beside her, Mitsuri smiled and explained, "Little sister, actually, after you go to another world, you can still come back, so you don't have to worry about that."
Shinobu Kocho had told her this, otherwise, she wouldn't have just rushed up like that.
"It really works like that?" Hearing what the pink-haired big sister said, Nezuko also made up her mind.
"I want to go!" Nezuko said with determination, looking at Lin Tian.
"Alright." Lin Tian smiled and patted Nezuko's head.
Seeing this little sister get her head patted by Lin Tian and look so happy, Mitsuri was extremely envious.
Suddenly, she felt a large hand placed on her head and also looked at Lin Tian.
Seeing his gentle expression, Mitsuri's heart immediately melted.
........
Besides Mitsuri Kanroji, there was actually one other person who wanted to go to Lin Tian's world, and that was Shinobu Kocho.
But because of the Butterfly Mansion, Shinobu still had to take care of her remaining younger sisters, so she hesitated several times and ultimately did not say it out loud.
Lin Tian had naturally noticed her, but he didn't say anything, instead sending her a few private messages.
Hearing Lin Tian's private messages, Shinobu's eyes lit up, and her gaze was fixed tightly on Lin Tian.
Lin Tian, in turn, gave her a smile.
Then, he looked at the remaining Hashira and said, "Does anyone else want to go to my world? You are very welcome too."
However, the remaining members did not accept Lin Tian's invitation.
"I plan to stay with my family and pass down the Flame Breathing," said Kyojuro Rengoku.
"I'm planning to retire too, although I didn't get to kill an Upper Moon," Tengen Uzui said, thinking of his three wives.
The remaining members also had their own plans. Sanemi Shinazugawa, in particular, was preparing to become Kagaya Ubuyashiki's bodyguard, though Kagaya strongly refused.
But the Mist Hashira, Muichiro Tokito, stepped forward and asked, "After I regain my memories, can I go to your world then?"
"Of course you can." Lin Tian didn't refuse him. His world could use a bit more 'human' touch anyway.
After deciding who was going, Lin Tian took out two black cards and handed them to Nezuko and Mitsuri.
The two took the travel cards and looked at them with curiosity.
And only then did it dawn on Tanjiro. His sister was going to leave this world?
