Me and My Cold CEO Wife

Chapter 2150 - 2139: Capturing and Killing Sea Beasts

"A beast unaware of its own mortality."Another Holy Force Slash flew over, the crescent-shaped sword light shattered the incoming shower of arrows before surging towards the demon fish with bat wings.

Just as the sword light was about to penetrate the sea surface, a water wall ten centimeters thick suddenly rose up.

As the sword light entered the water wall, its momentum suddenly slowed down, eventually dissipated by the water's gentle resistance.

"Quite a few tricks you have."

Ning Fan smiled softly and sent out eight consecutive sword lights.

But without exception, they were all blocked by the water wall.

"It's not working. The seawater cushions all the force."

Thinking of this, Ning Fan withdrew his holy sword and dove towards the sea.

At that moment, the demon fish with bat wings suddenly flipped over, exposing its belly to the sky and revealing a big mouth full of fangs.

"Waiting for me to feed you voluntarily?"

Seeing this, Ning Fan couldn't help but smile, inexplicably finding the demon fish somewhat adorable.

Facing the wide-open mouth beneath the sea surface, Ning Fan suddenly halted his dive, his body mysteriously shifted backward to dodge the massive mouth.

"Get up!"

With a cold glint in his eyes, Ning Fan punched the sea surface fiercely.

At the instant the fist contacted the sea, the Spiral Fist Wind swirling around his fist surged forward grandly.

The seawater between Ning Fan and the demon fish with bat wings began flowing forward visibly, creating expanding ripples.

When the surging undercurrent reached the waters near the demon fish with bat wings.

The fierce fist strength suddenly exploded, and a fifteen-meter tall water column shot up from the sea.

Wrapped in the water column, the demon fish with bat wings was instantly propelled into the sky.

"Let's see how you block this."

About to retrieve his holy sword, Ning Fan decided not to use it, instead launching himself off the sea surface towards the sky.

While the demon fish with bat wings, propelled into the air, was falling freely again, its height suddenly increased as Ning Fan, arriving later, punched it back into mid-air.

Separated from the ocean, sea beasts are like toothless tigers.

Although it could cast Water Blade, Water Arrow, and other Water Series Magic, mere Fourth Rank magic was utterly ineffective against the nearly anti-magic battle armor.

Given the structural design of the demon fish, it was evidently not a sea beast adept at fighting.

Next came Ning Fan's one-sided beating; no special moves required, just pounding away swiftly with punches.

No one knew how long it took, but when the storm passed, the clouds dissipated, and the skies cleared again.

At last, Ning Fan could no longer hear the demon fish's shrill cries.

The sound was both piercing and jarring, like demonic noise assaulting the ears, it frayed one's nerves.

Crucially, the noise seemed to occur directly in one's mind, impossible to block.

"Is it dead or just knocked out?"

Seeing the fish missing half a wing, Ning Fan felt a pang of regret, "Should've used this method sooner."

No helping it, he had mild OCD.

The left wing that was previously cut off, who knew where the sea had taken it.

Looking at the distant fishing boats.

Ning Fan grabbed the demon fish's tail and flew in the direction of the boats.

"I wonder how Mr. Ning's doing."

"The gentleman is a Knight, he's surely fine."

"But it's still a Fourth Rank sea beast."

Hearing this, Lum's worried look suddenly deepened.

In stormy weather, a Fourth Rank sea beast is much more formidable than usual.

Just then, someone shouted, "Lum, look, someone's flying over."

Following the pointing finger, Lum watched a black dot grow larger in his vision.

"It's Mr. Ning, Mr. Ning is back."

Seeing Ning Fan safe and sound, people from all three ships spread the word excitedly.

"What's Mr. Ning carrying?"

"Looks like a big bird."

"No... it's the Fourth Rank demon fish with bat wings from earlier."

The villagers on deck could now clearly see the shape of the demon fish with bat wings.

"It really is the demon fish!"

"Oh my! Mr. Ning actually killed a Fourth Rank sea beast."

As the words fell, everyone's eyes widened, followed by gasps of astonishment.

When Ning Fan landed on deck, he was greeted by a sea of stunned faces.

"What happened?"

A brief flash of confusion crossed Ning Fan's eyes before he continued, "Does this odd fish have no economic value?"

Lum quickly shook his head, saying honestly, "We didn't expect you would actually slay a Fourth Rank sea beast."

"It's alright, not that hard to kill."

Aside from the demon fish's piercing cries, its other abilities posed no pressure to Ning Fan, and as long as it was out of the sea, flattening it was a given.

With a bang, Ning Fan threw the fish onto the deck, "Deal with it."

Lum exuberantly shouted, "Everyone, get moving. All this blood must not be wasted."

It's the first time Hill Village was handling a Fourth Rank sea beast, an event worthy of being chronicled.

On a certain date in a certain sea area, under the lead of our esteemed guest, Ning Fan...

The sea beast is practically a treasure trove.

Someone brought over a wooden basin and began bleeding the demon fish.

The ink-green blood, though visually repulsive, had a faintly fragrant scent.

Lum explained, "High Rank sea beast blood has aphrodisiac effects; merchants say it's much sought after by nobles."

"Is that so?"

Glancing at the blood, Ning Fan lacked the courage to try it.

After all the blood was drained, several villagers took up knives to start dissecting the fish meat.

"Brother Lum, the skin's too tough to cut."

No matter how much they sliced or chopped, the demon fish's glossy, slippery skin left no marks.

"In a world where strength reigns supreme, even obtaining rare items requires enough skill to enjoy them."

Ning Fan shook his head silently, then stepped forward, "Let me do it."

Lum shook his head and said, "It would tarnish your sword. Let's find a solution back at the village."

"What tarnish? It's just a tool," Ning Fan waved his hand, "First, tell me how to cut it."

"Very well then."

Lum helplessly nodded and shouted behind him, "Fish butcher, come over here."

A lean, middle-aged man came forward with a face full of respect.

Ning Fan remembered him; his name was Hruf. His inherent physical condition was poor, unable to perform heavy labor, leaving him to do menial tasks like fish butchering.

Over time, he truly developed a knack for it; any fish seen by his eyes made it clear where to cut to separate the skin and meat.

In this world, fish skin is extremely tough and can be directly used as bulletproof vests.

"Greetings, sir."

Seeing Hruf's nervous face, Ning Fan smiled and said, "Don't be so tense, I'm here to learn fish butchering techniques from you."
