The Emperor God Wife Is Naughty
88. Hydra (1)

On a cool night, Xie Ran sat on top of a tree trunk while chewing on the freshly cooked venison. Xie Ran did not care what particular man looked at him strangely about his way of eating which was like not eating for days.

Xie Ran felt this was good enough, he ate well before the battle - despite the fact that he ate well every day - and in an instant he felt happy. He was very different from Xie Ran this afternoon.

When Xie Ran was about to take it again, the man who had been cynical to her instantly took all the meat and looked at Xie Ran as if the girl was going to steal her food. Xie Ran was stunned for a moment before pulling the hands of the drunkenness to act as usual while grumbling inwardly.

Why so stingy? He cussed on the seven derivatives that the man would get a crate narrow to the point of being squeezed. This forest has many animals, it is not difficult to hunt it for food.

"Zhe'er, don't be like that. This miss is so unfortunate starving for days, give her more." Uncle Hao patted his son making the man snort angrily and put back the venison he had gotten rid of.

Xie Ran smiled. "In that case, I won't hesitate." He smiled mockingly at the man accompanied by a provoking look that he had won. Xie Ran instantly took the meat shamelessly.

After dinner was over, Uncle Hao let Xie Ran sleep in the remaining room. Luckily there was still one empty room and just now Uncle Hao cleaned it up to be livable. Their rooms were side by side and Xie Ran was located at the very corner.

Uncle Hao's house was simple and what it was. When entering, three doors are immediately presented at the side of the main room. At the end there is a simple kitchen with wooden and iron tools as is.

Even in Xie Ran's room, there was only a wooden bed as well as a hard mattress layer as well as one wooden cupboard that was somewhat of a reot. Even when he climbed the bed, he felt the bed would collapse at any time accompanied by the sound of wood swaying.

Xie Ran did not want to think that he was sleeping on the reot wood that was about to fall by way of his chaotic sleep. Thinking about how he fell due to the collapsing bed, made him think that it was too embarrassing to the point of not being able to sleep.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

Tonight became so quiet that Xie Ran fell asleep. The sound of bats echoing in the sky across the forest along with a black shadow flashed through the open window.

The window of Xie Ran's room had no barrier or the like making a black shadow enter into forming an all-black figure with a red iris full of killing intent. His hand pulled out a pointed dagger from his pocket and lifted it high.

His emotions were overflowing, thinking his target was in plain sight and he would get everything after completing the mission. He directed the dagger to someone who was sleeping on the bed. When the dagger landed on the target precisely, his frown furrowed not seeing the red liquid as he had expected.

He flicked the blanket over, seeing the figure of the sleeping girl turn into a red shadow that moved towards him. He immediately dodged, but suddenly the shadow pierced his face in one blink of an eye making him unable to move his body. Suddenly his mind was blank, his gaze was blank and he turned to the back where the red-clothed girl who was standing quietly was.

"It turns out that it's just the dog" muttered Xie Ran smiling wryly. At first he was ready to fight thinking that came was the man who had been hostile to him since then was the leader, but his guess was wrong.

"Miss, even if I'm in your consciousness, sometimes I don't know what your mind is really about."

"That means you don't know me enough." Xie Ran approached the man, his eyes turning red. "The old man was the Devil King's Foot?"

"Yes," the man who had been hypnotized by Xie Ran.

"What's his name?"

"Xiao Haozu."

"Xiao Haozu .. seems to be quite complicated considering he is the guardian of Hydra. He must be stronger than Di Yushi." Xie Ran rubbed his chin as if thinking.

Long Ying poked suddenly on Xie Ran's shoulder with an agitated look. "Master, what are we gonna do? On the other side there is Hydra, now there is the Demon King's Hand Foot that is blocking you. We're in a trap!"

"Master, we shouldn't be here." Long Yun became worried with Long Huo. They had suddenly just appeared while flying in front of Xie Ran.

"Don't think I'm into a trap, I'm just getting started." Xie Ran spoke casually.

The three Dragons looked at each other. Long Huo asked to be sure, "Master already knew about it from the start? But their demonic aura was well disguised, not even I noticed it."

Xie Ran sighed. "While I was fooled at first, I wasn't stupid. Who would want to live in a place like this safely? Moreover, 'Uncle Hao' looks old, it is impossible to follow his son venturing to build a house in the monster nest, strangely I have not seen any ferocious beasts so far. If they were not top-tier cultivators, it would mean they were Devils working with the Demon King and Hydra."

One more thing, Xie Ran was very grateful to Mei Liena who made her many pills both medicinal and poison pills. Thanks to Mei Liena's anti-venom potion that she drank before returning to this place, she escaped the food that the sleeping pills had entered. Or else he would have to trouble Qu Xuanzi to protect him from intruders. However, he was still confused about Xiao Haozu's plan. Why would you want to kill him?

"What is the Master's next plan?" asked Long Yun.

Xie Ran glanced at the hypnotized man then smiled wryly. "It looks like we're going to fight tonight."

Out there, the sea becomes chaotic accompanied by a large wave. The wind blows carrying waves accompanied by the sound of waves that are increasingly enlarged.

Qu Xuanzi was standing on a cliff looking from a distance. He did not come with Xie Ran before realizing Xie Ran's plan to find out what the devil was doing.

For a long time he did not meet the real Hydra. Previously always met with such a troublesome clone. Since he was already here, Hydra would not bother sending clones and Qu Xuanzi would not have to chase to the bottom of the sea. They were about to meet soon, especially after sensing the demonic aura from where Xie Ran was.

"Asura, you've finally come ...."

A loud roar rang out from the bottom of the sea as well as a heavy voice as if there were five voices speaking. The waves crashing increasingly violent accompanied by an enlarged wave of water. The shock in the sea caused many ferocious beasts to be frightened and hide to safety, sensing the huge energy fluctuations causing pressure for those who sensed them.

The tide of the sea this time was terrible. Not only the southern region that experienced the impact, but other regions also caused several ships to be destroyed by the waves. People who work around stormy beaches and take refuge hope the ruler of the sea does not rampage until it kills them.

The chaos was not only felt on the seaboard, but other land areas as if there was going to be a big tsunami. If a tsunami were to occur, then it was a nightmare that there would be many monstrous sea animals flattening the city without giving any scraps.

Even Xie Ran had to go out through the window because the house would sooner or later collapse on him. The Dragons prepared and flew to see the condition from the sky then told Xie Ran that Hydra was about to appear.

"So bad the effect," muttered Xie Ran barely in confidence. How big is the Hydra compared to the Three Dragons?

Xie Ran went to the collapsed courtyard of the house. He saw the man who should be old now become young, look like he was in his 20s and handsome. Are all the Demon King's Hands Feet always handsome and pretty?

"Unexpectedly, you can still escape my trap," he said then looking at his subordinates who were now silent behind Xie Ran. "You have made him your slave."

Xie Ran ignored the devil's words. "I don't understand why you kill me when I'm useful."

"Utilizing pure energy doesn't have to take you directly. Based on the results that the demons had obtained earlier, it was better not to take you directly, but to kill you. With this, I can use my ability to absorb your energy to hand over to the Demon Emperor," Xiao Haozu explained.

Xie Ran narrowed his eyes and grieved. It seemed like the Demon King's Hands Feet had never gotten accurate information. If he dies, isn't it suicide? Stupid, very stupid ....

Xie Ran smiled coldly. "Then I want to see how you kill me."

Xiao Haozu panted no less coldly. The next second, a red beam shot out towards Xie Ran. Xie Ran immediately retreated and jumped in the other direction dodging the attack. He teleported as soon as he landed and launched a kick at Xiao Haozu.

Xiao Haozu lowered his head and took a few steps back. When the other red magic came, it instantly moved further away and destroyed Xie Ran's attack.

Xie Ran was somewhat surprised. His attacks were always indestructible especially after entering advanced professional cultivation. Xiao Haozu was stronger than any other demon who had always been exposed to his charm attacks despite not being full.

"Magic charm and step shadow, very good. I wonder what else is treasure in your body." Xiao Haozu was not surprised but stunned.

It always absorbs a lot of one's energy to be used as strength. The powerful techniques he had always mastered included human techniques when he absorbed human energy and training. If he could absorb Xie Ran, it would not only gain pure energy, but all precious treasures.

Xiao Haozu continued to attack Xie Ran without giving him a chance to counterattack. Xie Ran continued to dodge. Every attack of Xiao Haozu made an unexpected effect that was beyond his expectations.

Xiao Haozu's basic ability was absorption. He did not train a technique and his cultivation method was somewhat strange so that he could have the qualifications to become a Demon King's Foot Hand. He trained his physique and performed soul absorption on any creature that had a cultivation base. Then the cultivation of the creature would be digested by it into personal power.

Even so, it required many souls for his strength to be truly strong because basically, he could not kill strong cultivators with his low strength. So he started hunting for thousands of years and became the current Xiao Haozu.

There was no technique that he did not know, neither man nor animal until demons and gods, everything he knew. But only a few were successfully absorbed because the victims always had the same cultivation base and techniques. Now that he had the opportunity to absorb someone with pure energy and heavenly magic, he would naturally be very excited.

Xie Ran had sensed it at this moment. Every time Xiao Haozu's strength touched him - even a little - he always felt his strength wane. He used all low-level techniques and it was always absorbed by Xiao Haozu until Xie Ran completely lost his knight-level magic.

Xie Ran was forced to use natural skills and dodge each attack appropriately. He jumped over a tree branch while trying to escape to a larger place. This forest was too shady making it difficult to fight freely. He was also unable to get close to Xiao Haozu. If he took out a little bit of his strength near Xiao Haozu, his strength would disappear once Xiao Haozu took it.

"It can't be like this," muttered Xie Ran trying to think. Now it has approached the coast within 1 kilometer.

"Master, we'll buy you some time." Long Ying appeared together with Long Huo and Long Yun.

"No need, I already have a way." Xie Ran stopped the escape and exerted his strength from afar. He had measured Xiao Haozu's absorption distance before, a distance of 200 meters was enough to create an illusion without having to lose strength.

Xiao Haozu laughed at Xie Ran who was getting closer and started using enchantment magic. The enchantment magic was very good, he could do anything to the world with enchantment magic and gain more power. With this even the Demon Emperor or even the Celestial Emperor was no match for him.

Suddenly some fiery blades appeared like flying blades surrounding him. The phoenix feather started to control Xie Ran and attacked Xiao Haozu while stalling for time.

Xiao Haozu could only absorb living things, not objects or artifacts like phoenix feathers. Xiao Haozu was disturbed and avoided the attack. But it did not stop his intention of chasing after Xie Ran even though he had to be hampered by phoenix feathers.

In Xie Ran's hands, there was a pearl gift from Dean Bai. He had understood the power of the pearl before. With this pearl, he could combine several magic techniques and create a new magic that was much more complicated. This is very useful for his current state.

Manipulation and illusion are put together into the pearl. The pearl continued to digest the two red magic in Xie Ran's hands before Xie Ran finally mixed his technique with another technique. Since enchantment magic cannot hurt physically, what if he made enchantment magic can hurt a person physically?

With the help of pure energy, Xie Ran could easily mix the fire element into the pearl. The pearls absorbed it slowly while Xiao Haozu had avoided the phoenix feathers faster. It made Xie Ran restless and accelerated the process.

Xiao Haozu was happy after making the phoenix feathers stuck in the tree and could not get out after he planted it underground with a pile of rocks. He continued the delayed pursuit at a faster pace than the cheetah.

The sea is getting messy with time. It didn't take long, the sea was getting shaken up with huge splashes of water as soon as a giant figure appeared from below the surface. The snake features as large as tens of feet accompanied by five heads with fiery red eyes full of killing intent.

The five heads moved so heavily and roared loudly into the sky. The loud whistling sound caused his aura to radiate causing the waves of sea water to surge drastically. The sea was experiencing rising tides so some areas were sunk would the Hydra aura be expelled.

"It's been 3,000 years. This time, I'll kill you!"

Five types of snake sounds in the ocean. The Hydra's sharp gaze directed at Qu Xuanzi was full of hatred and condensed killing intent. Although he was a subordinate to the Demon Emperor, he was an eternal enemy of the Celestial Emperor especially Asura.

For 3000 years Hydra recuperated with the help of the power of the Celestial Emperor due to his battle with Asura who helped the Sea God. To the Sea God, Hydra was a threat and too powerful to fight, not even the Sea God could fight alone. So he asked Qu Xuanzi for help in the past.

At that time Qu Xuanzi was still in the form of Asura and was difficult to persuade. So the Sea God tried to convince and make sense of everything based on Qu Xuanzi's mindset for some time until he finally agreed. Qu Xuanzi managed to kill Hydra alone, yet Hydra was much stronger than imagined and disappeared with the rest of her life. Until finally the last war occurred, a new Hydra appeared to suppress the Sea Dragon and control the ocean.

The Hydra's current strength was certainly no match for Qu Xuanzi, but it was if Qu Xuanzi had his full strength. Yet now Qu Xuanzi only had a portion of his strength, whereas the Hydra had become stronger than it had been since 3000 years ago. That was what caused the Hydra to confidently challenge Qu Xuanzi and say it would kill him.

"Asura, if you dare, come before me!"

Hydra sneered at Qu Xuanzi who was precisely standing on the cliff. But he had no idea, that Qu Xuanzi had disappeared from there. When he regained consciousness, he found Qu Xuanzi appearing on the shore with the same look as before.

Qu Xuanzi looked at him flatly, no matter how Hydra looked at him provociously as if it could kill him like it was killing an ant. If he could choose, he better not meet the ugly look of Hydra. But unfortunately, he had already dealt with Hydra in the past and was now instead a subordinate to the Demon Emperor who was himself.

His mood became complicated thinking that he 'the other' had a subordinate who wanted to kill his master 'the other'. I don't know what the Demon Emperor promised. Although he had no business with Hydra, he also had to protect Xie Ran from the ugly creatures. Given his fight with the Hydra clone, it seemed like he had to exert all his strength to deal with this one troublesome creature.

"You don't ignore me!" snapping Hydra felt ignored. The Celestial Emperor was colder than the Demon Emperor, it made him very annoyed to have been ignored. Then something came to his mind. "I remember a girl had come. It must be that his soul is being depleted by Xiao Haozu. He won't be able to escape. You are the same!"

Hydra did not want to be ignored anymore and directly attacked. Lava emerged from all five of its mouths launched towards Qu Xuanzi. It was extremely hot when it dripped and emitted smoke like a mountain of merapi.

Launching lava shooting so fast from five directions to one point. Qu Xuanzi disappeared just like that and moved to the other side so that the lava that gushed burned the sand until it was hollow.

Hydra's upset. As he was about to launch another attack, a golden beam shot down him so hard that it hit one of his big heads. A sense of heat spread across one of his heads while the other head roared loudly.

"Unfortunately, I am still not strong enough," Qu Xuanzi muttered that Hydra heard.

Hydra glared sharply and rampaged. Not strong enough yet what? One of his heads almost missed due to the attack earlier. He was so angry that he was humbled!

"Asura! If you want to fight, fight earnestly!"

Qu Xuanzi was astonished by this one creature. He has attacked still said not to fight in earnest. If only dodging, he will be said to be a coward and only know how to avoid. It is a troublesome creature.

But then, the sound of an explosion from within the forest echoed so loudly distracting them. A white ray appeared in the middle of the forest right where Xie Ran was. Qu Xuanzi began to be wary, yet when he sensed something familiar, he regained his composure.

"Hmph! Since pure energy has appeared, why should I buy some time with you?" Hydra scoffing. A purple light shot through the air. In just one blink of an eye, the dark purple attack enlarged and shot towards the forest.

Qu Xuanzi became serious when he saw the main attack of Hydra appear towards where Xie Ran was. He did not wait any longer, instantly disappearing after the purple ray that was so fast as to match his speed that Qu Xuanzi had to use all of his strength in order to be able to go faster.

When the purple rays were about to enter the forest, Qu Xuanzi arrived before the purple rays and restrained him. A deep red beam appeared to hit the purple ray and gave a terrifying suppression until the air became so thick.

Qu Xuanzi was completely transformed in the form of an Asura. He destroyed the Hydra attack with one strike and launched another attack towards the Hydra. Such a huge energy bar struck the barrier that Hydra had made, resulting in a huge explosion accompanied by a blazing fire.

But it doesn't stop there. Qu Xuanzi's red iris was now switched away as soon as he saw the Hydra's other head launch an even greater purple radiance over before towards the forest. Actually the Hydra is trying to distract Qu Xuanzi?

Although Qu Xuanzi knew of Hydra's intentions, he could not let Hydra hurt Xie Ran. He darted after the purple light within the forest. That purple ray caused his speed to decrease and he had to give more violent pursuit before it exploded.

Qu Xuanzi's mind focused on one thing. When he saw the white figure in the distance with a familiar face, he immediately quickened his pace and pulled the slender arm that was as light as cotton.

The Hydra's purple rays exploded as it also caused the shady trees to be knocked out and collapse as if blown by a typhoon. The purple light caused the soul-scraping radar so that all the animals hiding died instantly. The forest no longer resembled a forest, but rather a sea of dense purple mist and full of poison.

Xiao Haozu was seen being thrown away, while Qu Xuanzi inside the fog formed a transparent protector with one of his hands while the other hand held the figure of the silver-haired girl in his arms.

Xie Ran had completely changed for quite some time. Her hair was silver and her eyes were blue, contrasting with Qu Xuanzi's red eyes despite having the same hair color. It looks like black and white in a transparent circle.

"Aren't you afraid of wrong people?" Xie Ran instead smiled mischievously in the crucial moments as if all of this was nothing.

"I won't be mistaken," Qu Xuanzi replied with a thin smile that was barely noticeable. When he saw it, he already knew that it was Xie Ran. Although Xie Ran changed face, he would still know that it was him.
