Mushroom Man

Chapter 334 Becoming Famous, Strolling in the Garden and Enjoying the Flowers

Dragon Palace.

Royal Garden.

"Have you all heard?"

"That human mushroom master named Wu Shuai actually defeated Prince Ao Tang!"

"It is said that Crown Prince Ao Tang wants to cause trouble for that human mushroom master because of Princess Miaoyin."

"In the end, after only a few moves, Prince Ao Tang was trampled underfoot by that human mushroom master."

A dragon-man mushroom master stood under a cherry blossom tree, shaking his head and talking eloquently with an air of importance.

His words seemed to express great admiration for the human mushroom master, Wu Shuai.

His words quickly caused a huge uproar.

"What?! Such a thing actually happened!"

"Where did you hear that news? That's outrageous!"

"Nonsense, how can such nonsense be spreading everywhere?"

“Prince Ao Tang is the pride of our Dragon Palace. How could that human mushroom master possibly defeat Prince Ao Tang?”

The dragon-man mushroom masters, gathered in small groups, were originally drinking and admiring the flowers, discussing which dragon girl was the most beautiful.

Upon hearing this, everyone's attention was immediately drawn.

They were all talking at once, making a lot of noise.

Without exception, they all believed that the person was drunk and talking nonsense.

"Hey, you guys don't believe me!"

"To tell you the truth, my wife is a maidservant of the dragon girl who is in charge of guarding the mushroom room."

"At that time, she and many dragon maidens all witnessed Prince Ao Tang being defeated by that human mushroom master."

"I heard that later on, even the Golden Dragon King, who had just returned to the palace, was alarmed."

"In the end, it was Lord Golden Dragon King who took away the seriously injured Prince Ao Tang."

"This news has spread throughout the Dragon Palace. If you don't believe it, you can go and ask around."

Seeing that no one believed him, the dragon-man mushroom master embellished the story and revealed more inside information.

Seeing his appearance, everyone realized he didn't seem to be lying.

For a moment, all the dragon people present gasped in shock, each one deeply stunned by what they saw.

They really didn't expect this...

Prince Ao Tang, the undisputed number one prodigy of the Dragon Palace, was actually defeated by a human mushroom master!
And judging from this, it seems to have been a crushing defeat.

This incredibly shocking news had a significant impact on these dragon-man mushroom masters.

If they remember correctly...

That human mushroom master named Wu Shuai seems to have only reached the initial stage of the third level of cultivation.

Furthermore, this guy is also an expert in mushroom refining; he's a mushroom refining master.

As is well known, cultivators of the Dao are often not good at killing and their strength is generally weak.

If a cultivator wants to balance killing and combat, they will definitely have to devote their mind and energy to studying other schools of thought.

However, this will definitely affect his achievements in the path of cultivation.

After all, no matter how extraordinary a person is, their energy is limited, and they can't have everything.

And this human mushroom master, being a near-master of the Dao of Refining, must have focused his energy on the Dao of Refining.

In this situation, this person's achievements in combat and killing should not be comparable to those of Prince Ao Tang.

However, the truth is that Prince Ao Tang suffered a crushing defeat.

That's why the group of dragon people looked incredulous at this.

This is just too outrageous!

It should be noted that Crown Prince Ao Tang was no mediocre talent.

He was a true prodigy, with a cultivation level as high as the peak of the third stage.

An unknown human mushroom master, who was supposedly picked up by Princess Miaoyin, actually defeated Prince Ao Tang.

Anyone in this situation would probably find it hard to believe.

And yet, this is exactly what happened.

This is enough to demonstrate how terrifying that human mushroom master was.

He is proficient in alchemy and skilled in combat; he can no longer be described as a mere prodigy.

Only the title "monster" is qualified to describe this person.

A human mushroom master, whom they picked up casually, possessed such talent that he easily crushed the pride of their Dragon Palace.

No wonder the dragon people still hide in the sea and dare not reveal their whereabouts.

It turns out that these inherently evil, treacherous, and cunning humans are actually a group of terrifying monsters!

can only say……

As expected of the human race, who currently rule the mushroom world and are favored by destiny.

If all humans are such freaks, then it's no wonder the Otherworlders lost.

After digesting the news, the dragon people were filled with both shock and fear towards the human race, who existed only in rumors and whom they had never met. Their apprehension was even greater than before.

However, the vast majority of dragon people are still quite clear-headed and intelligent.

They knew very well that the powerful one was not the human race, but Wu Shuai, whom Princess Miaoyin had brought back.

Although there are often exceptionally talented individuals among the human race, the vast majority of human mushroom masters are actually mediocre and incompetent.

The dragon race, on the other hand, are born with Dao traces, making them generally superior to humans.

Wu Shuai's ability to defeat Prince Ao Tang only proves that he is a prodigy, and does not mean that dragon people are weaker than humans.

This scene didn't just happen in the Imperial Garden.

The news was spreading like wildfire throughout the Dragon Palace.

There was nothing fun to do in the Dragon Palace. The dragon people usually stayed in the deep sea, playing and fooling around for amusement. Monotony filled every day for these dragon people.

Normally, if any dragon prince or dragon princess were to become the subject of gossip, these idle dragon-man mushroom masters would talk about it for days on end.

Now that such a big commotion has occurred in the Dragon Palace, how could the Dragon Man Mushroom Master let it go?

Everyone used it as a topic of conversation, and it was spread around everywhere with everyone talking about it.

One pass ten, ten pass a hundred.

In less than half a day...

Throughout the Dragon Palace, in the East Hall and West Hall, almost all the dragon people knew the news that Prince Ao Tang had suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of the human Mushroom Master Wu Shuai.

It can be said that Wu Liang single-handedly made the entire Dragon Palace lively.

After this battle, Wu Shuai's name became famous throughout the Dragon Palace, and his reputation soared!
Previously, Wu Shuai's display of his near-master level in Dao Refining was not enough to cause the Dragon People to pay too much attention.

After all, while the quasi-masters of the Dao of Refinement are prestigious, their Dragon Palace is not without them.

The people of the dragon admire strength and always believe that the strong are respected.

Now, Wu Shuai's genuine strength has been a powerful blow to the hearts of the Dragon Mushroom Masters.

However, Wu Shuai is not a dragon man after all...

Non-my family, its heart must be different.

Consequently, although most of the Dragon People acknowledged Wu Shuai's strength and no longer looked down on or disliked him as before, they still had some reservations.

Prejudice cannot be easily changed overnight.

Fortunately, Wu Liang, the instigator, never intended to change these dragon people's prejudice against humans.

at the same time……

Ao Miaoyin and Wu Liang strolled in the Imperial Garden.

Because Ao Miaoyin was physically weak and had difficulty walking, she had to stop frequently to rest and catch her breath.

After a short while, the two of them finally made it from the mushroom room to the imperial garden.

To reach the West Palace where the Silver Dragon King resides, one must walk a long distance and pass through the Imperial Garden.

Fortunately, neither of them was in a hurry; instead, they thoroughly enjoyed the moment of tranquility.

They strolled along, stopping frequently to admire the flowers and chat.

With Wu Liang's intention, the two got along well, the atmosphere was relaxed and pleasant, and there was no awkwardness at all.

Initially, Ao Miaoyin, having never interacted with a man before, would often blush when teased by Wu Liang, which made her quite charming.

However, as time went on, Ao Miaoyin gradually became desensitized and became quite composed, even turning around to make a few jokes.

Just at this moment...

Ao Miaoyin overheard the discussion among the dragon people in the Imperial Garden about Young Master Wu defeating Prince Ao Tang.

She covered her mouth and chuckled softly, unable to resist speaking in a teasing tone.

"Well……"

"It seems that Young Master Wu has made a name for himself by stepping on Crown Prince Ao Tang this time."

"The people of Miaoyin have a very high opinion of Young Master Wu."

"It's just a pity for Crown Prince Ao Tang. He not only made a fool of himself but also lost face. I wonder how Uncle Ao Li will punish him when he gets back."

Upon hearing this, Wu Liang couldn't help but smile.

What's so special about this?

To overthrow the Dragon Palace and force it to change its surname is far from enough...

Wu Liang is ambitious and arrogant, but on the surface he appears gentle and humble.

He smiled faintly and said, "It was just a fluke. Why is Miaoyin making fun of me?"

"If I could, I would rather not have this limelight."

"After all, sometimes, being in the limelight isn't a good thing, especially since I'm still an outsider."

After spending time together, the "Miss Miaoyin" that Wu Liang referred to had been simplified to "Miaoyin".

This represents a significant advancement.

Ao Miaoyin wasn't annoyed by such an intimate address, after all, she had been using it all the way and was already used to it.

"Young Master Wu is truly quite different from us Dragon People."

"We Dragon people have always been simple and direct, high-profile in our work, and fond of showing off and making a big fuss."

"On the other hand, Young Master Wu, despite making such a big splash, remains humble and reserved, neither arrogant nor impatient, which is truly admirable."

Ao Miaoyin sighed, expressing her admiration for Wu Liang's character.

Just as she said...

Although the Dragon People have remained dormant to this day, they still harbor a restless heart.

People born in the Year of the Dragon are generally flamboyant, and if their sons or grandsons achieve something remarkable, they can't wait to bring it up and talk about it all the time.

Those dragon-man mushroom masters valued reputation and face above all else, regarding them as an honor.

In the human race's mindset, this might be considered a flaw.

However, in the eyes of the Dragon People, arrogance and domineering behavior are never considered flaws; on the contrary, they are seen as the demeanor of a strong person.

Upon hearing this, Wu Liang smiled and was about to say something more.

Then Ao Miaoyin paused slightly, looked up and stopped.

"Young Master Wu, we've arrived..."

They had been chatting idly along the way and had unknowingly wandered through the Imperial Garden.

Upon hearing this, Wu Liang glanced at the scene.

Then a magnificent and imposing hall came into view.

Clearly, this is the West Palace where the Silver Dragon King resides.

And as luck would have it...

At that very moment, the Silver Dragon King’s furious roar echoed from this magnificent, adorned palace with dragon and phoenix carvings!
