My beautiful CEO wife-Chapter 1586: Blood Essence Fruit

The red-clad girl lightly flapped her wings and took to the air, flying towards the opposite bank of the river.

Seeing this, Xiao Zheng stopped and didn’t rush forward. This red-clad girl was the Blood Clan Netherworld King, far more powerful than him, and capable of flying; it was naturally more suitable for her to explore this river.

However, Xiao Zheng was fully prepared, ready to assist at any moment should the red-clad girl encounter danger.

Suddenly, at that very moment, an unexpected change occurred.

As the red-clad girl flew to the middle of the river, it seemed to sense something, and suddenly violent waves surged up, exuding a kind of restless and uneasy emotion. In an instant, the waves rose several meters high, like the sea under a storm.

Xiao Zheng’s pupils contracted.

The next moment.

Boom!

From beneath the water, a long tentacle suddenly shot out, reaching for the Netherworld King.

This tentacle was entirely pitch-black, covered with what looked like hideous round red wounds, like grim eyes, suddenly appearing, looking both demonic and terrifying.

"Watch out!"

Xiao Zheng shouted, and at the same time, he didn’t hesitate to act, snapping his fingers like a sword. A Gang Qi beam several meters long shot out, whistling through the air, slashing at the black tentacle.

The red-clad girl reacted quickly too, flapping her wings and suddenly rising several meters. Then a red light flickered in her eyes as she gazed beneath the water, where a huge shadow was vaguely visible.

"Hmph!"

The red-clad girl snorted coldly, raised her palm, and the Netherworld God Spear appeared amidst flashes of red light. It suddenly struck down, piercing through the surface of the water, embedding itself into the massive black shadow.

"Roar!"

Throughout the heavens and the earth, a wailing cry echoed. The massive black shadow rolled violently, raising towering waves on the river, while masses of fresh blood surged up, staining the originally scarlet river a dark red.

At the same time, Xiao Zheng’s golden Gang Qi also struck the tentacle, its sharpness like a sword blade easily severing it.

Boom!

The shadow, enraged to the extreme, suddenly broke through the water, hovering in the air. Its eyes glowed with icy anger, seven full tentacles and one severed tentacle waved wildly in the air, causing the air to explode with a deafening and terrifying sound, whipping up gusts of wild wind.

"An octopus?"

Seeing this monster, Xiao Zheng was momentarily stunned, but quickly regained his composure, showing a slightly serious expression. Octopus-like monsters, in many myths and legends, are malevolent beasts, terrifying entities.

The red-clad girl’s eyes glimmered slightly, "Blood Clan’s legendary beast, Ganggudar?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zheng curiously asked, "What is that?"

The red-clad girl explained, "Ganggudar is a ferocious beast tamed by our ancient Blood Clan, possessing extremely powerful combat abilities. In ancient times, taming a Ganggudar was the dream of many, a symbol of status and honor."

Hearing this, Xiao Zheng laughed, "Then we can tame this monster and make it your mount."

The red-clad girl glanced at the monster and shook her head, saying, "Too ugly, I don’t want it."

"Uh..." Xiao Zheng blinked, a bit speechless, feeling somewhat caught off guard by the girl’s playful attitude.

Their nonchalant conversation, completely ignoring it, infuriated the Ganggudar. Its eyes turned icy cold, feeling utterly disrespected in its own domain.

Roar!

The Ganggudar roared in rage, its seven tentacles suddenly extending, almost filling the sky, madly wrapping towards the red-clad girl, its tentacles dancing wildly everywhere in an instant.

A cold light flashed in the red-clad girl’s eyes, she flapped her wings and her body dashed across the air like lightning, reaching above the Ganggudar’s huge head, then raised her fist to smash down.

Boom!

A deafening crash resounded!

The Ganggudar howled in agony, its house-sized body directly flying back across, landing far on the other side, twitching slightly, almost immobilized, dazed by the red-clad girl’s mighty punch.

Xiao Zheng gulped, thinking to himself, this Netherworld King sure is the big BOSS. Appearing as a fragile girl, her strength is terrifyingly immense.

The red-clad girl flapped her wings, flying to the Ganggudar’s front and landed. Seeing this, Xiao Zheng also dashed forward, easily crossing the river, in a few flickers, he reached the red-clad girl’s side.

This Ganggudar had formidable vitality, not dead even now, only twitching incessantly, nearly unconscious.

Recollecting the Ganggudar’s previous cold and angry gaze, Xiao Zheng suddenly thought of something and said, "This Ganggudar might have a certain degree of intelligence! Otherwise, it couldn’t have reacted with such emotion. Maybe, we could use it to learn some information related to the Blood Essence Fruit."

The red-clad girl’s eyes also brightened, saying, "There’s such a possibility." But she quickly frowned, "But can it understand our speech?"

Xiao Zheng smiled, saying, ’Why not give it a try.’ His palm shone with golden light, and a Gang Qi blade, like a great sword three meters long, appeared in the air, emitting a sharp aura.

Xiao Zheng positioned this Gang Qi blade against the Ganggudar’s head and coldly ordered, "If you understand our speech, blink your eyes, or else I’ll cut you down here and now."

The Ganggudar revealed a terrified expression, hastily blinking its eyes, and even let out a pitiful whining sound, carrying an air of plea.

Xiao Zheng was instantly delighted, as his attempt was merely a probe, mainly because he thought of the red-clad girl’s previous mention that in ancient times, the Ganggudar was used as a mount by the Blood Clan. Even a dog can understand some human commands, let alone such a mystical beast? Since it can be a mount, it should be able to communicate with humans. Unexpectedly, his test actually worked.

"Do you know about the Blood Essence Fruit?" the red-clad girl asked.

The Ganggudar nodded its head.

The two exchanged a glance, gleaming with joy.

Xiao Zheng shouted, "Now point the way, take us there, and don’t even think about deceiving us. If we discover any deceptive actions, you’ll be slaughtered instantly!" With that, the Gang Qi swirled, leaving a blood mark on the Ganggudar.

The Ganggudar whimpered in pain, fearfully nodding, then several tentacles pressed the ground, standing it up as if they were legs, even raising its head, clearly able to move on land.
