Mushroom Man

"Om-"

Everything happened in the blink of an eye.

The Silver Dragon King rescued Prince Ao Tang as soon as he made a move.

In an instant, time began to flow, and everyone returned to normal.

Prince Ao Tang collapsed to the ground, looking as if he had escaped a disaster, secretly relieved that he had preserved his imperial manhood.

Xiao Chusheng was then slammed against the wall by the Silver Dragon King.

"Boom!"

Xiao Chusheng crashed into the bluestone wall, fell to the ground in a disheveled state, and coughed up blood.

"Damn it...cough cough cough."

Xiao Chusheng raised his head with difficulty, his face showing resentment.

Damn the Celestial Mushroom Master!
Now, the idea of ​​taking someone down with them before they die is just wishful thinking.

"You're not too late this time..."

"What, are you here again to tell me not to kill these human mushroom masters?"

Seeing that Prince Ao Tang was safe and sound, the Golden Dragon King's tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly.

He glanced at the Silver Dragon King, then spoke calmly.

Upon hearing this, the Silver Dragon King sighed and then shook his head.

"Humans certainly have good and bad aspects, and should not be driven to extinction."

"But now, the two remaining human mushroom masters, whether it is Wei Dai or this little thief, are both guilty of a heinous crime."

"Keeping these two alive poses a great threat to the Dragon Palace. Indecisiveness will only cause more dragons to be harmed."

"So this time, I won't stop you anymore..."

Clearly, the Silver Dragon King was not the kind of person who was ignorant and stubborn, convinced that killing should not be done indiscriminately and would only increase hatred.

The Silver Dragon King had previously obstructed the Golden Dragon King entirely because some of the human mushroom masters were guilty of crimes that did not warrant death.

But now, those human mushroom masters who didn't deserve to die have already been eaten by Wei Dai.

The two remaining human mushroom masters, whether it be Wei Dai or Xiao Chusheng, are both scourges who deserve to die.

Their hands were stained with the blood of the dragon people, and they had even killed two old men, the mute old man and the blind old man.

Under these circumstances, the Silver Dragon King had no reason to spare the lives of the two villains.

If he still sides with the human mushroom master, then that's a bit hard to believe.

The Silver Dragon King had his own moral compass, so this time he not only did not stop the Golden Dragon King, but also took the initiative to save Prince Ao Tang in order to mend their relationship and ease the previous quarrel.

Unfortunately, the Golden Dragon King doesn't seem to appreciate it...

"Hmph, that's ridiculous!"

"You forbade me from killing these insects before, and now you're pretending to be clear-headed and a good person. Where were you before?"

“If you hadn’t stopped me earlier, the mute old man and the blind old man might not have died.”

"Indecisive, hypocritical, and utterly deceitful, stepping down is the best decision you've ever made."

The Golden Dragon King's expression was icy, and he showed no mercy in his words, clearly still harboring anger.

The Silver Dragon King opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something and explain.

However, he also knew that no matter what he said at this moment, he would not be able to make his stubborn and extreme brother understand him.

If that's the case, why bother explaining so much to someone who has a different philosophy and can't work together?
Therefore, the Silver Dragon King, who had originally wanted to seek reconciliation and ease tensions, showed a hint of disappointment in his eyes and said nothing more.

This appearance, in the eyes of the Golden Dragon King, was undoubtedly a speechless display.

The Golden Dragon King snorted coldly and didn't look at him again.

His sharp gaze fell on Xiao Chusheng, and with a flick of his finger, he shot out a stream of air.

When this current of air landed on Xiao Chusheng, it was like a dull knife cutting flesh, peeling away his skin inch by inch.

A heart-wrenching pain instantly surged through Xiao Chusheng's limbs and bones.

"Ahhhh!"

Xiao Chusheng, with disheveled hair and a ferocious expression, screamed in agony.

The piercing screams echoed within the Dragon Prison, enough to send chills down one's spine and haunt one's nightmares for days on end.

Half-dead and barely breathing, Wei Dai heard this scream and knew all too well that his godson had ultimately failed to escape.

He wanted to go and help, but he was already close to death, with only his last breath remaining.

In this situation, let alone helping, he himself only has a few breaths left to live, and might even report to the Yellow Springs before Xiao Chusheng.

Therefore, Wei Dai could only lie paralyzed on the ground, listening to the screams grow more and more shrill and chilling...

"I once said that I would skin you alive, cut you into a thousand pieces, and extract your souls and refine your spirits."

"I keep my word..."

The Golden Dragon King spoke in a deep voice, exuding authority and sending chills down one's spine.

At this moment, Xiao Chusheng no longer had a human form. Most of his skin and flesh had been scraped off by that stream of energy, making him look extremely miserable.

Large amounts of blood spilled onto the ground, even forming a pool of blood.

Xiao Chusheng knelt in the blood, unable to even curse, only able to scream in agony.

The pain of being skinned and dismembered was unimaginable, causing him unbearable agony and making him contemplate suicide.

However, whenever this happens, that wisp of air will obstruct his true energy, making it impossible for him to die even if he wants to.

This scene, witnessed by the surrounding dragon-man jailers, sent a chill down their spines.

“You, you… ah!”

Xiao Chusheng endured the excruciating pain and opened his mouth to curse.

However, as soon as he opened his mouth, his teeth were shattered by the airflow.

In just a few breaths, Xiao Chusheng lost most of his life and was tortured to the point of barely clinging to life.

However, the Golden Dragon King was still not satisfied and wanted to skin him alive and send him out as a warning to others, to give the dragon people an explanation.

However, as the saying goes, delay brings trouble! Just when things seemed hopeless, a sudden and unexpected change occurred…

"Rumble--"

A deafening roar suddenly rang out from the Dragon Palace, traveling from afar to the ground and reaching the ears of everyone in the prison.

The Golden Dragon King and the Silver Dragon King's expressions changed simultaneously, and they both looked in the direction of the sound.

Their eyes gleamed, and through the many obstacles, they saw the source of the sound.

A huge white skeleton was seen rampaging through the Dragon Palace, causing palaces and pavilions to collapse wherever it went.

The Dragon Palace is home not only to dragon-human mushroom masters, but also to many ordinary dragon-humans without any cultivation.

It was the dead of night, and most of the dragon people were sleeping and resting.

Therefore, these dragon people who were asleep could not even escape, and they all died tragically in the collapsed ruins.

"Jie Jie Jie..."

"A bunch of lowly dragon-men, how dare they imprison a human! They deserve to die!"

The white skeleton cackled eerily, its voice echoing throughout the Dragon Palace.

He extended his skeletal hand and broke through the sanatorium, which was specifically for treating the injuries and recuperating the wounded and disabled dragon people.

At this very moment, there are dozens of dragon people inside.

These dragon people were either injured or disabled, and there were also some elderly, weak, women and children, as well as pregnant dragon people recuperating here.

Looking around, all that could be seen were the elderly, the weak, the sick, and the disabled, with only the Dragon Girl Doctor in attendance.

The skeleton accepted all comers without hesitation, grabbing all the dragonmen inside.

And by sheer coincidence, Huang'er was among them, her figure filled with terror.

Previously, Ah Hong and Ah Lan were ordered by the princess to save Huang'er's life and treat her properly.

Unfortunately, Huang'er was no longer the princess's maid and could no longer live in the West Palace.

So they took Huang'er to the Dragon Palace's recuperation hall.

After a period of rest, Huang'er has recovered somewhat and will be able to get out of bed and walk around soon.

Who would have thought that I'd be so 'unlucky' as to be captured by a skeleton...

"Hehehe, an eye for an eye."

"I'll accept these mushroom materials. Goodbye!"

The skeletal figure burst into laughter, then vanished before the dragon-man mushroom masters could react.

This scene, witnessed by the Golden Dragon King and the Silver Dragon King, immediately enraged the two dragons.

Even the benevolent Silver Dragon King couldn't help but widen his eyes in anger, his eyes becoming bloodshot.

They murdered innocent dragon people and captured the old, weak, sick, and disabled to be used as mushroom material.

Each and every one of these incidents was extremely heinous, even worse than Xiao Chusheng's previous killing of the Dragon Mushroom Master.

When has the Dragon Palace ever suffered such humiliation? This is no longer a simple provocation; it's a fight to the death between them!

But that's not all...

Just then, out of the corner of his eye, the Golden Dragon King noticed that Xiao Chusheng, who had been critically injured and on the verge of death, was... gone!

It turns out that in the instant when the skeletons were causing havoc in the Dragon Palace, and the Golden Dragon King and Silver Dragon King's attention was diverted...

Driven by an intense will to survive, Xiao Chusheng forced himself to use his last breath and used the mushroom to escape through the air.

"Who, who is it!"

Upon witnessing this scene, the Golden Dragon King could no longer contain his rage.

He activated the probing fungi to survey the surrounding area for miles, but failed to find any clues whatsoever.

Not only did the white skeleton disappear without a trace, but Xiao Chusheng also vanished in just a few breaths.

Who could have imagined that Xiao Chusheng, even in that state, would still have the strength to escape?

Such a humiliating disgrace made the Golden Dragon King so angry that he could no longer maintain his dignity.

"Damn human insectoids, I swear to kill you all!"

Enraged, the Golden Dragon King roared to the sky, venting his fury.

The deafening roar of the dragon sent shards of stone flying, and the entire dragon-trapping prison shook violently.

The Silver Dragon King's face was frosty; the actions of the skeleton had crossed his bottom line.

Such brutal slaughter of dragonmen, no matter how much he wanted to ease the relationship between humans and dragonmen, made him unable to resist the urge to kill.

He reached out and summoned Wei Dai from afar.

That's right!

Wei Dai did not take the opportunity to escape.

Of course, he also didn't have the ability to escape.

Compared to Xiao Chusheng, who was subjected to a thousand cuts, Wei Dai was in even worse condition, truly hanging by a thread with no hope of recovery.

Now that the Silver Dragon King has captured it, he clearly intends to make use of it and find out from it who the white skeleton really is.

After all, the appearance of that white skeleton was too strange and too sudden.

Logically speaking, they should have already wiped out all the remaining human mushroom masters.

Only Xiao Chusheng escaped the net.

However, it is truly unbelievable that a human mushroom master has suddenly appeared in the Dragon Palace.

Neither the Golden Dragon King nor the Silver Dragon King expected that these human mushroom masters were hiding a skeleton.

That's why the sudden appearance of the skeleton caught them completely off guard.

The Silver Dragon King took a deep breath and coldly questioned Wei Dai, who was seriously injured and on the verge of death.

"who is it?"

"Tell me, who is that skeleton?" (End of Chapter)
