Mushroom Man

Chapter 308 On Actions and Intentions: The Traitorous Disciple of Yuan Tu
Is Wu Shuai a good person?
On the surface, he certainly is, but what he really is, is anyone's guess.

At the very least, the Silver Dragon King did not believe that this human mushroom master was truly a good person.

This can be seen from the extremely strong smell of blood emanating from it.

As a peak fifth-tier mushroom master, the Silver Dragon King is knowledgeable and experienced.

He had dealt with the North Sea Demon Mushroom Master several times.

The scent emanating from 'Wu Shuai' and the feeling he evoked were exactly the same as those of the Blood Path Mushroom Masters.

Clearly, this human mushroom master is not honest.

Even with his eyes closed, the Silver Dragon King could guess that what this boy was saying was definitely a lie, something he was hiding.

but……

A gentleman does not care about his deeds.

This 'Wu Shuai' has not done anything to harm the dragon people, nor has he had any inappropriate thoughts about Miaoyin.

In the eyes of the Silver Dragon King, this was enough.

Moreover, some of the things 'Wu Shuai' said were indeed true.

The Silver Dragon King could see that Wu Shuai's soul was extremely weak, indicating that he had truly suffered a soul injury.

Under these circumstances, even if a second or third-level mushroom master with a wounded soul had some ulterior motives, he couldn't cause any trouble in the Dragon Palace.

"I hope this kid will behave himself and not hurt Miaoyin's feelings."

"If I could, I really wouldn't want to kill this human mushroom master and shatter Miaoyin's dream of peaceful coexistence between humans and dragons."

Both the Silver Dragon King and Ao Miaoyin are kind-hearted and soft-hearted.

After some hesitation, he ultimately did not reveal that this boy might be a demonic mushroom master, but only muttered a few words to himself.

"Father?"

Seeing her father standing there without saying a word for a long time, Ao Miaoyin thought that her father was considering how to deal with Young Master Wu.

For a moment, she called out nervously.

Upon hearing this, the Silver Dragon King finally came to his senses.

He laughed and patted Ao Miaoyin's head.

"You silly girl, are you so worried about your young master Wu?"

"Rest assured, he is a guest of honor. I will not do anything to Young Master Wu, a guest of the Dragon Palace."

"Young Master Wu's soul is injured and he needs to rest and recuperate."

"I will send someone to deliver a soul-nourishing soup made from soul-nourishing wood."

"For the time being, let him stay here and rest his soul. Do not let him wander around, lest the clansmen cause unnecessary trouble in a moment of carelessness."

Upon hearing this, Ao Miaoyin immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

She smiled and nodded, saying softly, "Understood, Father. Miaoyin will take good care of Young Master Wu, our guest..."

The Silver Dragon King nodded with a smile.

He wasn't actually worried about whether his daughter would be in any danger from getting along with 'Wu Shuai,' who was suspected of being a demonic mushroom master.

After all, Ao Miaoyin had the means he had set up to protect her life.

As long as he is alive, Miaoyin will be fine.

This is one of the reasons why the Silver Dragon King turns a blind eye to Ao Miaoyin's secret trips out of the Dragon Palace.

Otherwise, with Ao Miaoyin's insignificant skills, how could she possibly hide it from the Silver Dragon King?

……

Meanwhile, inside the palace.

Wu Liang sat back down on the soft bed.

This appears to be Ao Miaoyin's private room, which she specially prepared.

The bed was soft and exuded a delicate fragrance of a young girl.

Wu Liang, who had been on edge the whole time, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Finally, we have a chance to catch our breath."

"This Dragon Palace is a good place for me to recuperate and live a restful life."

"Before I, no human mushroom master had ever visited the Dragon Palace."

"From this, we can see that the location of the Dragon Palace must be extremely hidden and difficult for outsiders to discover."

"Now, Zhuge Huowang and that traitor Yuan Tu should both be looking for me."

"However they may think, they would never imagine that I would, by a stroke of luck, hide in the lair of the dragon-human race."

Wu Liang's eyes were deep and thoughtful.

Looking back on his escape from this predicament, he realized that there were many aspects where he had fallen short of expectations.

First and foremost, the biggest problem was that they shouldn't have gone and provoked the Yuan Tu.

Yuan Tu, as the disciple of the Blood River Ancestor, has survived for thousands of years and is still alive today.

His cultivation level had far surpassed that of his master, the Blood River Ancestor, and he had achieved the Eighth Rank Mushroom Immortal.

In an era when the Celestial Venerable did not appear, apart from the legendary immortals who could be called quasi-Celestial Venerables of the Nine Clans, the Eight-Turn Mushroom Immortal was the strongest person in the world.

It is clearly unwise to provoke such a terrifying enemy.

how...

Wu Liang, who inherited the memories of the Blood River Ancestor, is in some ways equivalent to half of the Blood River Ancestor.

Moreover, this was the Blood River Ancestor, who had never been beaten and was in the prime of his life.

Influenced by this, Wu Liang, though his rational mind told him that he should not reveal his identity and provoke Yuan Tu, was driven by his emotions to act impulsively just this once.

Yuan Tu betrayed him, causing him to suffer such a miserable end and endure endless hardship.

Wu Liang would not be at peace if he allowed such a rebellious disciple to live a carefree life. He had already realized that Yuan Tu was nearing the end of his life and should not be allowed to cause trouble recklessly.

The purpose of his words to Yuan Tu was to let him know that his master had returned.

Based on his understanding of Yuan Tu, he knew that once Yuan Tu learned that his 'master' was still alive, he would be both shocked and furious, living in constant fear.

In this way, no matter what Yuan Tu, that traitor, was trying to do by breaking the seal, a considerable amount of his energy would be diverted to him.

This accelerates the loss of lifespan, causing people to age faster and die sooner.

As long as that traitor is not having an easy time, it's not a big deal if he suffers a little.

And as the saying goes, having too many lice makes you less itchy.

He had already offended them to death. Zhuge Huowang, a seventh-level mushroom immortal of the Holy Sect, was no big deal if there was another Yuan Tu.

In any case, for him now, whether it's Zhuge Huowang or Yuan Tu, it doesn't make much difference. Once they fall into his hands, they will definitely die without a burial place.

They don't even need them; any level 5 mushroom master could easily kill him.

If that's the case, it's better to muddy the waters and drag more forces into it.

Only in this way can he have more room to maneuver, so that he can walk a tightrope on the edge of a cliff.

At this moment, Wu Liang was like a piece of Tang Monk's flesh that everyone wanted to take a bite of.

Zhuge Huowang and Yuan Tu Laozu are like wolves and lions, both wanting to devour Wu Liang.

However, if more and more people want to eat Tang Sanzang's flesh, and there are too many monks and not enough porridge, it will actually provide him with a greater chance of survival.

Of course, the fact that more people want to eat meat is both a good and a bad thing.

The specifics will depend on the subsequent developments and whether they will unfold as Wu Liang envisioned.

“My disciple, my disciple, you have lived far too long.”

"I've already died once, what makes you think you're still alive?"

"If you don't die, how can I take back what rightfully belongs to me?"

Wu Liang squinted, his expression shifting between light and shadow.

If we were to ask who in this world most wishes for the patriarch Yuan Tu to die quickly.

It wasn't actually some righteous mushroom immortal, but rather his 'master'.

According to the memories of the Blood River Ancestor...

Yuan Tu, that traitor, may very well have obtained the legacy left behind in the North Sea by the Blood River Ancestor.

In order to prolong his life, the Blood River Ancestor began to prepare for self-sealing.

He had prepared a great deal of resources, almost exhausting all his wealth.

Shura Island was originally the resting place that the Blood River Ancestor prepared for himself, but now it has benefited Yuan Tu.

Clearly, he must have obtained the legacy of the Blood River Ancestor, which is why he knew that the Ancestor had laid down a long-forgotten method on Shura Island.

However, no matter how much that traitorous disciple thought about it, he actually chose to set up a sealed method on Shura Island, not just because it was rich in blood resources.

The real reason is that Shura Island holds an immense opportunity.

Once the Ancestor Yuan Tu dies, Shura Island will once again become a land without an owner.

Wu Liang was confident that he could reclaim what belonged to him.

However, before that, the most urgent task is to improve his strength as soon as possible.

"I now have enough inheritances at my disposal."

"There is another blissful paradise in Beihai, where the immortal Yu Daogu lives, but I haven't gone to find it yet."

"I must improve my cultivation and even my methods as soon as possible to the point where I can seize these opportunities."

"And at a speed that no one could have imagined, he ascended to immortality and became a mushroom immortal."

"Only in this way can I be confident enough to go to the East to obtain the Treasure House of No Form while ensuring my life."

As Wu Liang's thoughts raced, he had already come up with a fairly good plan for his future.

Today, most of the Wuxiang successors who are able to reach the North Sea alive have the shadow of the Mushroom Immortal behind them.

Wu Liang was all alone, all by himself.

In this situation, he must acquire the skills of the Mushroom Immortal as soon as possible to ensure that he will not be imprisoned and have no control over his own life again after going to the Eastern Land.

Just as Wu Liang was pondering how to quickly improve his cultivation and methods...

He suddenly frowned, as if he had discovered something.

"Ok?"

"what is this?"

Wu Liang shook his robe, and a winged mushroom fell from a corner of his robe.

This mushroom is at the fifth level of the cosmic cycle and is surrounded by air currents.

Perhaps it was because Wu Liang discovered it.

As soon as it landed, it rolled on the spot, trying to escape.

"interesting……"

"Now that I've seen you, where do you think you can run to?"

Wu Liang instantly realized that this mushroom was the same one that Morobi had tried to pick in the cave.

However, his appearance startled Morobi, which saved the mushroom from disaster.

Now, for some unknown reason, this mushroom has inexplicably ended up on his body.

However, no matter what, now that it's in his hands, how can he let it go?

Wu Liang moved swiftly, and with a few quick maneuvers, he cornered the mushroom in a narrow corner.

Upon seeing this, he immediately let out a cold laugh.

The next moment, Wu Liang reached out without hesitation and grabbed it, refining it instantly!
