Mushroom Man

Chapter 304 The Dragon Girl's Melodious Voice, The Dragon Palace in the Sea

"Ah Hu, with your temperament, you'll get into big trouble sooner or later. I'm not taking you out to play next time."

The woman's brows were slightly furrowed, her eyes were like water, and her tone carried a hint of complaint.

Upon hearing this, Haihu fawned over her, circling her several times.

"Ugh……"

The woman shook her head and sighed, looking quite helpless.

Her gaze shifted and landed on Wu Liang.

"Is this the human that Father King spoke of?"

“They do look very different from my dragon race. They have no dragon horns, no dragon scales, and no dragon tail.”

The woman looked at Wu Liang with some curiosity.

Just then, she seemed to remember something.

"Hmm... I remember my father once said that people cannot breathe freely underwater without using mushrooms."

"We dragon people set up our dragon palace in the deep sea, where humans usually cannot reach, in order to avoid humans."

"This person is currently unconscious; could it be that he drowned?"

Upon thinking of this, a look of worry immediately appeared on the woman's face.

Kind by nature, she was taught by her father from a young age to get along well with others.

So now that someone has met with misfortune before her very eyes, she naturally cannot stand idly by.

The woman slightly opened her mouth and exhaled a bubble.

The bubble expanded rapidly and soon enveloped Wu Liang.

Wu Liang, now inside the bubble, no longer needed the Fetal Qi Mushroom and resumed breathing.

However, this alone was not enough to wake Wu Liang up.

After careful observation, the woman discovered that the man appeared to be seriously injured.

If not treated promptly, their lives may be in danger.

This place was specially chosen by the Dragon People. Within a radius of a thousand miles, there were no islands or inhabitants.

"It seems the only option is to take this person back to the Dragon Palace for recuperation."

The woman pondered for a moment, then quickly made a decision.

Bringing a human back to the Dragon Palace would undoubtedly be an extremely troublesome matter for her.

Even though she is the daughter of the Silver Dragon King, Princess Miaoyin of the Dragon Palace.

Moreover, she had secretly run away this time.

If I go back like this, I'll probably be confined to my quarters by my father again.

However, abandoning this human and letting him fend for himself was clearly something her kindness wouldn't allow her to do.

Thinking of this, the woman made a quick decision and had Haihu push Wu Liang back to the Dragon Palace.

What she didn't know was...

Even if she hadn't helped Wu Liang and had left him to fend for himself, he wouldn't have died from his so-called injuries.

The injuries he sustained from falling off a cliff were nothing more than minor bruises to him.

As long as he can wake up, he can use blood-path techniques to drink a few mouthfuls of the sea mushroom beast's blood, and his injuries will naturally be healed.

The dragon princess, completely unaware of this, had no idea what kind of jinx she had brought back.

About half an hour later...

The woman carried Wu Liang as they descended.

Finally, a magnificent palace complex came into view.

This place is firmly protected by a layer of golden light.

The palace complex within the light barrier is completely isolated from the outside world, with no seawater at all, allowing even mortals to breathe freely.

However, there are no ordinary people here.

The Dragon Palace was filled with dragon people with dragon horns on their heads, handsome men and beautiful women, each with outstanding appearance.

Of course, very few people can rival Wu Liang in appearance.

After all, both Wu Liang and Wu De were among the most handsome men in Zhaodi Town.

They grew up drinking the water of the Humanitarian Wonder, the Mother River, and as a result, their physical appearance was naturally flawless.

"Princess, Princess Miaoyin has returned!"

"Huh, why did the princess bring back a human mushroom master?"

"Oh no! Could it be that the princess actually believed the Silver Dragon King's crazy talk and thought that humans were all good people, so she brought a human back to the Dragon Palace?"

Along the way, many dragon-man mushroom masters saw their own Princess Miaoyin bring back a human pretty boy.

They were both surprised and frightened, and there was much discussion about it. Each of them had a hint of hostility on their faces.

Clearly, these dragon people do not have a good sense of human perception, and even have a natural and strong hostility towards them.

At this moment, if it were any other dragonman who dared to bring human mushroom masters to the Dragon Palace, they would probably have been cursed out by these dragonman mushroom masters long ago.

But who could blame Princess Miaoyin for bringing back the human mushroom master?

Princess Miaoyin was known for her excellent reputation in the Dragon Palace.

She is gentle and kind, and often helps other dragon people.

Many dragon people had received favors from Princess Miaoyin, so they really couldn't bring themselves to criticize her.

And so, the dragon-man mushroom masters could only watch helplessly as Princess Miaoyin brought the human into the Dragon Palace.

However, they could not blame Princess Miaoyin, but they could report to the Silver Dragon King and let him handle the matter.

Under these circumstances, many dragon-man mushroom masters have already gone to inform the Silver Dragon King of this news.

Meanwhile, Princess Miaoyin had already taken Wu Liang and returned to her palace.

As soon as she returned, a young maidservant came to greet her.

The little maid was also a dragon, and she was petite and delicate.

"Oh dear! Princess, why did you sneak out again while Huang'er was sleeping?"

"That's fine, but Princess, why did you bring someone back with you?"

The little maid, Huang'er, looked resentful, hands on her hips and stomping her feet, appearing quite angry.

She pointed at Wu Liang and blurted out, "Princess, tell me honestly, isn't this your lover?"

"Well, I knew it! The princess is already a young woman nearing twenty, so why hasn't she taken a fancy to any handsome dragon prince yet?"

"And what else did you say, that you wanted to wait until Huang'er was married before considering romantic relationships?" "Pah, pah, pah, the princess is just lying."

Princess Miaoyin blushed slightly upon hearing this, waving her hands repeatedly and saying, "Huang'er, you've misunderstood. I just picked this person up..."

"Huang'er, you'd better not be fooling around, or people will laugh at you."

Huang'er persisted, shaking her head repeatedly.

"Princess, you are still lying."

"Who would believe that you found it?"

"Besides, the princess has already brought the pretty boy back to the Dragon Palace, so why would she be afraid of what Huang'er will say?"

As Huang'er spoke, a hint of jealousy crept into her voice.

She got more and more excited as she talked, and even started making wild guesses.

"In my opinion, this pretty boy is Princess's secret lover."

"No wonder the princess didn't want to stay in the Dragon Palace. Every time she would sneak out of the Dragon Palace when Huang'er wasn't paying attention, it turned out that she had been bewitched by this human."

"Oh no, Princess, you've definitely been tricked by this treacherous human."

“Those who are not of our kind are bound to have different intentions. This person’s approach to the princess must be ill-intentioned.”

"Alright." Princess Miaoyin frowned slightly and couldn't help but call out to stop.

"If Huang'er keeps making wild guesses, I'll skin you alive."

"This person is injured and urgently needs medical treatment."

"I brought people back this time, so I must go see my father first."

"Please settle this person in first, and make sure he doesn't lose his life."

Princess Miaoyin, with a stern face, gave Huang'er instructions in a serious manner.

Seeing that the princess seemed angry, Huang'er pouted and reluctantly agreed.

"I know, Princess, go quickly."

"Huang'er will definitely take good care of this pretty boy for you."

Princess Miaoyin shook her head helplessly.

When will Huang'er change her disrespectful and outspoken nature?

It's all her fault for spoiling Huang'er, which has made her so spoiled and willful.

As expected, she was never suited to be a princess...

Princess Miaoyin sighed, then handed Wu Liang over to Huang'er and went to see her father.

The Dragon Palace is very large, with two main halls, one in the east and one in the west.

The East Hall is under the jurisdiction of the Golden Dragon King, and the West Hall is under the jurisdiction of the Silver Dragon King.

Both the Golden Dragon King and the Silver Dragon King are peak fifth-tier Dragonman Mushroom Masters.

The palace master has already ascended to the heavens, and the Dragon Palace is usually ruled by the Golden Dragon King and the Silver Dragon King.

Princess Miaoyin was the only daughter of the Silver Dragon King, holding a high position and being respected by all.

Thus, she traveled smoothly and easily to the West Palace where her father was.

The West Hall was resplendent in gold and jade, exuding an awe-inspiring and solemn atmosphere.

Few dragon-man mushroom masters dare to approach this place.

Princess Miaoyin entered the main hall and saw her father, the king, sitting in front of the dragon desk, painstakingly reviewing various memorials.

This so-called Silver Dragon King, despite his impressive title, looked nothing more than an overweight middle-aged man.

He was plain-looking, even a little bald, and had no air of authority whatsoever.

It is truly unexpected that such a person would give birth to such a beautiful Princess Miaoyin.

"Father..."

Princess Miaoyin bowed slightly and spoke softly.

Only when they reached this point did the Silver Dragon King put down the memorial and look up.

"Miaoyin, I heard you brought back a human?"

The Silver Dragon King frowned, his voice hoarse, revealing his deep exhaustion.

Princess Miaoyin felt a pang of sympathy upon seeing this.

She bit her lip and said, "Father, the man is unconscious, drowning, and injured."

“Miaoyin happened to be passing by and, fearing for her life, brought her back with her.”

Upon hearing this, the Silver Dragon King's tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed.

He sighed and said helplessly, "You, you're just too kind to everyone."

"Although I advocate that dragons and humans coexist, there are good people and bad people among humans."

"If you save a wicked person who repays kindness with enmity, wouldn't that harm you?"

"And you should know that the current Dragon Palace is ruled by my elder brother, the Golden Dragon King Ao Li."

"His prejudice against people is too great. If he finds out that outsiders have entered the Dragon Palace, he might fly into a rage."

"At that time, it might actually harm that person instead."

Princess Miaoyin pursed her lips and said, "I understand what Father has said."

"But how can you tell at a glance whether a person is good or bad?"

"Miaoyin only knows that she can't stand by and watch someone die. If she saves a bad person who repays kindness with enmity, she can let Ah Hu eat him later."

"If we save a good person, we might be able to improve the relationship between humans and dragon people from this moment on."

"As for Uncle Ao Li being angry, Miao Yin can send that person out of the Dragon Palace after he recovers from his injuries..."

Upon hearing this, the Silver Dragon King nodded, a look of satisfaction on his face.

"It seems that Miaoyin has grown up and is not completely ignorant."

"If that's the case, then go ahead."

"Remember, the dragon people are not yet ready to be born."

"Once that person has recovered from his injuries, bring him here to your father, erase his memory, and send him out of the Dragon Palace..."

Princess Miaoyin smiled and winked when she heard her father's approval.

"Yes, Father!"
