Mushroom Man

Chapter 182 A Twisted Mind, I Sold You Out (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

"Special Envoy, are you alright?"

Suddenly, the hoarse voice of Bone Immortal reached my ears.

Wu Liang snapped out of his daze and subconsciously looked at him.

That one glance caused Bone Master to involuntarily take a half-step back.

For a moment, Master Gu was filled with surprise and doubt.

In his eyes, Wu Liang seemed to have become a different person ever since he mentioned Zhenwu Tianzun.

It inexplicably gives people a feeling of being deeply demonic.

For no apparent reason, it made him feel somewhat afraid.

You must know he's the Bone Immortal!

Having traveled far and wide and experienced many vicissitudes, he rose from a humble rogue cultivator to become a local patriarch, a genuine fifth-level mushroom master.

He has seen all kinds of storms and waves. He has even dealt with bloodthirsty and evil-doing demonic mushroom masters.

However, this boy had just given him a strange feeling that was far more terrifying than any of the demonic mushroom masters he had ever seen.

Especially that glance just now!
It gave him a chill down his spine, as if he were being watched by some old monster.

This is definitely not the look a greenhorn should have.

not simple!
Definitely not simple!
He truly deserves to be a disciple of Zhuge Huowang, the immortal of the Holy Sect.

As expected, someone who can become a disciple of an immortal is definitely not an ordinary person.

The reason why Master Gu was so respectful to Wu Liang before was entirely because he was wary of the possible immortal behind him.

After all, the skills Wu Liang has displayed during this period are not enough to make a fifth-level mushroom master wary.

What is a top-grade dantian or any kind of transformation? To Master Bone, it really means nothing.

If his cultivation level hadn't dropped and he were still at the fifth level, Wu Liang would have long since become his sitting duck.

But nowadays...

The unusual behavior Wu Liang had just displayed was enough to make Bone Master wary, and even look at him differently, no longer regarding him as a lucky second-generation immortal.

This kid is definitely not as simple as he thinks.

correct……

This person previously mentioned possession.

Could this kid not be some greenhorn at all, but an ancient monster who has lived for who knows how long?
Or perhaps it was because he had just mentioned Zhenwu Tianzun and suspected that Morobi possessed some kind of innate Dao body.

This attracted the attention of that holy immortal, who temporarily possessed the boy's body.

Neither possibility is something he can afford to offend.

The Bone Immortal's mind was racing, filled with countless thoughts.

Thinking of this, his gaze toward Wu Liang became even more wary, and his tone involuntarily carried a hint of respect.

"Special Envoy?"

"Are you okay?"

Wu Liang withdrew his gaze and said coldly, "I'm fine..."

Upon hearing this, Master Gu breathed a sigh of relief, lowered his head in silence, and stopped talking.

Wu Liang rubbed his temples, his expression growing increasingly cold.

Clearly, he wasn't as fine as he claimed.

At this moment, Wu Liang had already noticed some clues from the change in Gu Zhenren's attitude.

At this point, he certainly knew what had happened.

"I'm in trouble..."

Wu Liang's eyes were deep and thoughtful as he pondered, quite certain of his assessment.

He had just had the insane thought of trying to seize the True Martial Demon-Slaying Body at all costs.

Indeed, any normal person, even an immortal, would have some evil thoughts upon hearing about the True Martial Demon-Slaying Body.

Even Wu Liang was no exception; wanting to seize the True Martial Demon-Slaying Body to advance himself further was only human nature.

But that depends on the time!
Although Wu Liang possessed the courage of a bear and the boldness of a leopard, given his nature, he would never act rashly, recklessly, or without caution.

Keep in mind that he had just reached a cooperation agreement with Morobi.

If, at this moment, one chooses to turn against them because of the True Martial Demon-Slaying Body, the consequences would be unimaginable.

First of all, it remains to be seen whether Wu Liang can rely on Gu Zhenren to defeat Morobi.

Secondly, his immediate priority was to use the wandering centipede to escape the Western Regions.

If he were to attack Morobi at this time, this path would likely be completely destroyed.

Furthermore, his plan to use Morobi as a shield to stand in the spotlight and attract attention will be thwarted.

Therefore, whether for the sake of the bigger picture or for his own life, Morobi is not someone he should touch right now.

However, just now, for no apparent reason, he was overcome with malice.

Suddenly, an impulse arose within him to immediately capture Morobi and seize the True Martial Demon-Slaying Body at all costs.

Clearly, there's something seriously wrong with his character.

In fact, Wu Liang had realized this long ago, and more than once, he realized that there was something wrong with his mindset.

For example, at the beginning, they captured the Third Young Master and Madam Hong one after another.

From that moment on, Wu Liang realized that he seemed to be bolder than before.

After all, back in Zhaodi Town, he wouldn't dare to be so unrestrained under the nose of a fourth-level mushroom master, and he didn't even put the fourth-level mushroom master in his eyes.

In addition, there was a night raid on the Black Horn tribe, where, relying on Bone Master, they directly approached Morobi, a Wuxiang successor whose background was unknown.

All of this is so unlike him.

Daring and reckless, unscrupulous, arrogant and conceited.

Morobi was right, he was too arrogant...

Wu Liang was well aware that the changes in his temperament were very likely due to the influence of the Blood River Ancestor's memory fragments.

He had been aware of this before, but he always intentionally or unintentionally ignored it and put it out of his mind.

This is undoubtedly due to the influence of the Blood River Ancestor!
But... Wu Liang frowned, completely baffled.

He only absorbed some fragments of Blood River Ancestor's memories, so how could the impact be so great?

It should be noted that within the River of Oblivion, if the Blood River Ancestor's memory fragments were calculated to be 100%, the portion he absorbed was probably less than half of that.

Such a small fragment of memory could twist his mind to such an extent.

Isn't this a bit too much?
"No, we can't delay any longer in dealing with the memory issues."

"The longer this drags on, the more trouble it will cause. If this continues, I'll get into trouble sooner or later because of my personality."

"Fortunately, I realized my true self in the River of Oblivion, found my obsession, and my will has grown."

"Otherwise, at this moment, I might not even be able to perceive the changes in my own mindset."

"While I can still suppress the influence of the Blood River Ancestor to some extent, I must immediately begin to resolve this matter."

Wu Liang had a series of thoughts that flashed through his mind.

After sorting out his thoughts, he made a decision.

"To address the impact on memory, the Wisdom Mushroom is indispensable."

“I don’t have any of these mushrooms on hand, I have to go to the Rich Caravan.”

"But now I have no money left, so even if I wanted to buy mushrooms, I have no money."

"The resources from Morobi's side won't arrive anytime soon; it'll probably be tomorrow at the latest."

"If I wait until tomorrow, I might not be willing to waste the silver water to resolve any mental or emotional issues."

“I had this thought before in the secret room of the Black Horn tribe, so there’s nothing wrong with it.”

"Having learned from past mistakes, I knew I couldn't afford to delay any longer."

"We must gather the silver water today to resolve the impact brought about by the Blood River Ancestor."

"But where does this silver liquid come from..."

It turns out that the more urgent the situation, the faster your mind works.

After much deliberation, Wu Liang came up with an idea in no time.

His gaze shifted slightly, landing on Bone Master.

"Senior Bone, I have a favor to ask of you. I wonder if you would be willing to do me a small favor?"

Upon hearing this, Master Gu laughed heartily and agreed without hesitation.

"Why must Your Excellency be so formal?"

"Isn't your business my business too?"

"Whether it's an assessment or a method of possession, we need the special envoy's help."

"I have nothing to repay you with but to do what little I can for the special envoy."

"Your Excellency, just tell me what it is, it's a small matter. I'll handle it perfectly."

After witnessing Wu Liang's extraordinary abilities, Bone Master had been eager to curry favor with him.

This is just the perfect opportunity, a godsend, so why would we give up so easily?
I wonder what small favor it could be that would warrant his personal intervention...

Upon hearing this, Wu Liang's cold expression vanished, replaced by a slight upturn of his lips and a calm smile.

"It's actually not a big deal."

"It's just that I'm short of money, so I'm planning to... sell Senior Bone."

Upon hearing this, Master Bone breathed a sigh of relief.

He thought it was something else, like fighting with a ruthless person like Morobi.

So you wanted to sell him, huh? This is nothing to worry about. Wait for him...

Ok?
and many more!

Gu Zhenren came to his senses and looked at Wu Liang with a look of astonishment.

What the hell are you saying? You're going to sell me out?!

……

noon.

A tiger-skin tent.

The alluring and seductive 'Red Lady' swayed her hips and lifted the curtain.

"Oh my, isn't this Lady Red?"

"Why did you finally decide to get out of the Third Young Master's bed today?"

"Where are we going to find food this time?"

"Please consider us. We often do rough work and are much stronger than the Third Young Master."

"It's nice to try our local delicacies occasionally; they have a unique flavor and I imagine they're quite delicious."

Every single mushroom grower who passed by was a burly, foul-mouthed man.

When they saw Lady Red, they were like wolves seeing lambs; they couldn't help but stop, whistling and teasing her.

"Pooh!"

"With your skills, you're not even as good as my useless husband!"

Lady Red rolled her eyes, raised her chin, and looked like a proud white swan.

She didn't even glance at the group of dirty men, but instead swayed her round hips and walked away.

The group of mushroom growers looked on with regret.

"That slut, Madam Red, is truly a stunner!"

"If I could play this even once, it would be worth dying for."

"The Third Young Master is such a kind man. I wonder which man he's having Madam Hong reward this time."

"Huh? Hiss..."

"Look, the direction Madam Hong went seems to be going to find the eldest and second young masters!"
