Mushroom Man

Miss Miaoyin?

The familiar address made the terrified Huang'er instinctively look in the direction of the voice.

However, what she saw made her pupils shrink sharply and her eyes widen in horror.

"Yes, it's you!"

Huang'er was filled with fear and screamed, her face filled with disbelief.

Clearly, the man in blood was none other than the very man who had caused her so much suffering... 'Wu Shuai'!
At this moment, when she saw Wu Shuai's face, she immediately understood the cause of the recent series of misfortunes that had befallen the Dragon Palace.

really……

She wasn't wrong in her initial suspicions; this guy was indeed a scoundrel!

The poor princess has been deceived by this man!
Who could have imagined that a mushroom master who had only reached the second or third level was actually the mastermind behind the white skeleton?

Huang'er's hands and feet were ice cold, and a chill kept creeping up from the bottom of her heart.

Now that she knows Wu Shuai's true colors, she feels no hatred anymore, only an overwhelming fear.

"Young Master Wu, spare me, spare my life!"

"Huang'er was wrong, Huang'er shouldn't have offended you."

"Please, for the sake of the princess saving your life, spare Huang'er."

"Huang'er doesn't want to die, sob sob sob..."

Huang'er knew that 'General Wu' was the one who would decide whether she lived or died.

She showed no hatred whatsoever. Instead, driven by a strong will to survive, she knelt down with a thud and desperately kowtowed, begging for mercy.

However, Wu Liang remained unmoved, merely watching the whole thing with interest.

"Young Master Wu, I was ignorant before and caused you trouble. Please forgive my mistake and spare my life."

“If Young Master Wu is worried that letting Huang’er go might expose him, he can use the Slave Path Mushroom to enslave Huang’er.”

"Moreover, Huang'er has lived in the Dragon Palace since she was a child. As the princess's personal maid, she knows many secrets of the Dragon Palace."

"If Young Master Wu is interested in the Dragon Palace, Huang'er can tell Young Master Wu everything he wants to know."

Driven by fear, Huang'er desperately tries to demonstrate her value, even at the cost of betraying the Dragon Palace.

She was terrified that Wu Liang would really dismember her like those dragon people and turn her into a mushroom.

"interesting……"

Upon hearing this, Wu Liang raised an eyebrow.

He hadn't expected that Huang'er, who had previously loathed humans and gone so far as to target him recklessly, would be so spineless.

I was just startled by him, and this is what happened.

Before Huang'er, those old, weak, sick and disabled dragon people all had an unyielding and proud appearance when they were dying.

They were all unyielding to the death. Even when he dismembered them alive, they never yielded or begged for mercy, and even continued to curse him.

If even the old, weak, sick, and disabled are like this, one can glimpse just how strong the backbone of the vast majority of dragon people in the Dragon Palace truly is.

Yet, such proud and unyielding dragon people produced such a spineless coward as Huang'er.

This is really...

Wu Liang had a strange look on his face.

However, upon closer examination, it makes perfect sense.

Compared to those dragon people, Huang'er was still too young and a spoiled little girl.

It's perfectly normal for a little girl to be so easily frightened by him after suffering one blow after another, to kneel down and beg for mercy.

Meanwhile, Wu Liang's appearance, when seen by Huang'er, immediately led her to misunderstand something.

In Huang'er's opinion...

The fact that 'Wu Shuai' didn't kill her immediately suggests that he was moved by her.

If I just put in a little more effort, I might be able to save my life!

Thinking of this, Huang'er didn't wait for Bone Immortal to bring her to Wu Liang. Instead, she crawled over on her own, like a female dog, using both hands and feet.

She forced a smile, hugged Wu Liang's leg and gently shook it, her face full of flattery.

"Young Master Wu..."

"Huang'er really doesn't want to die. As long as she can live, Young Master Wu will do anything for her."

"Huang'er can submit to you, to be your slave, to warm your bed and add fragrance to your life."

“Young Master Wu, take a closer look. Actually, Huang’er’s looks are not much worse than the princess’s. She has a great figure and a beautiful face.”

"What the princess can do, Huang'er can do; what the princess cannot do, Huang'er can also do."

"Young Master Wu spared Huang'er's life, how about Huang'er becomes your bed warmer..."

Huang'er had heard that most human men were lecherous demons.

Many records in the Dragon Palace indicate that human mushroom masters enjoyed capturing dragon maidens for pleasure.

In her eyes, 'Wu Shuai' was clearly a lecherous man.

Otherwise, why would this guy always deliberately approach the princess? Isn't it because he's after her body?

That's why Huang'er, who considered herself no less than a princess, readily used her looks to please Wu Liang.

She clumsily tore open her bodice, revealing her pitifully bare, snow-white skin, in an attempt to seduce Wu Liang.

However, a little girl is still a little girl...

Compared to Ao Miaoyin, Huang'er is far inferior.

Those who can be seduced by Huang'er are probably only lustful gluttons who prefer a three-year or longer relationship.

"Tsk..."

"You're kidding when it comes to reconciliation at this time, aren't you?"

“I am ashamed of the Dragon Palace for having produced such a worthless creature as you.”

Wu Liang glanced at Huang'er with a calm expression. Without any mercy, he kicked Huang'er in the chest.

Huang'er was kicked to the ground, and the intense pain made it impossible for her to get up.

Wu Liang was very disappointed in Huang'er.

If Huang'er had any backbone, he might have considered letting him die a quick death.

But Huang'er deliberately lowered the overall spine of the dragon man, which made him quite unhappy.

It should be noted that Wu Liang had long considered the Dragon Transformation Technique as his own.

He will definitely transform into a dragon person in the future and become a member of the dragon person family.

In this situation, the more united, loyal, and principled the Dragon People are, the more satisfied he will be with them.

"Woooooooo..."

Seeing Wu Liang's attitude, Huang'er knew all too well that she had no hope of surviving.

Wu Liang's words about her being a "cheapskate" and the disgrace of the Dragon Palace completely broke her down.

Overwhelmed by intense humiliation and the fear of death, she could no longer hold back and burst into tears.

"You, you will die a miserable death!"

"Princess, the Silver Dragon King and the Golden Dragon King will avenge Huang'er!"

Huang'er collapsed to the ground, tears and snot streaming down her face, looking miserable as she cursed loudly.

Clearly, she had completely lost hope of surviving.

After Huang'er finished speaking, as if to avoid being tortured, she even thought of biting her tongue to commit suicide.

But as soon as she took a bite, she immediately regretted it.

Who said biting your tongue can lead to suicide?
Huang'er took a bite, but instead of dying, her mouth was full of blood, and she fainted from the pain.

"..." Wu Liang watched this scene and remained silent for a long time.

"Your Excellency, what should we do with this fool? Should we throw him into the blood pool too?"

This was the first time that Gu Zhenren had ever seen someone who bit his tongue and fainted from the pain.

He suppressed a laugh and asked respectfully.

Upon hearing this, Wu Liang nodded slightly and said calmly, "I intend to deal with this woman separately..."

"Now my master has instructed me to plot against the Dragon Palace and find a way to take charge and rule this place."

"If we want to achieve this grand plan of the Holy Church, I still need to start with Ao Miaoyin."

"If this woman can be used properly, she can be a key to unlock Ao Miaoyin's heart."

Take charge of the Dragon Palace and be the master of your own household!
When Gu Zhenren heard Wu Liang's plan, the ghostly fire burning in his eyes flickered slightly.

When he was released from the Demon Suppression Tower and went to wreak havoc in the Dragon Palace, he took the opportunity to keep an eye on this place.

At that time, he could clearly sense that there were two extremely powerful fifth-level mushroom masters in the Dragon Palace.

Furthermore, everything in the Dragon Palace, from the mirages to the like, subtly reveals the work of immortals.

One can only say that he truly lives up to his reputation as the sage Zhuge Liang...

They actually dared to let the special envoy, whose cultivation level was only at the third level, plot against such a formidable place with such profound foundations.

Perhaps only the immortal Zhuge Liang in the world would have such a magnanimous heart, unafraid that his disciple might perish here.

Gu Zhenren's thoughts raced, silently deceiving himself.

That's right, it's just deceiving yourself...

In truth, Master Gu knows everything, but he simply doesn't want to face it.

Bone Immortal is no fool.

Someone who, as a rogue cultivator, managed to rise through the ranks to become a fifth-level mushroom master, could hardly be a fool.

He might not be considered shrewd or cunning, but he's at least a smart person.

Wu Liang's various unusual behaviors over the years were enough to make him understand something.

He might have dismissed one or two unusual occurrences as just him overthinking things.

However, the increasing number of unusual occurrences made it impossible for him to deceive himself any longer.

He witnessed everything that happened in Tsukago Fukuchi.

At that time, due to the influence of the fraudulent mushroom, Gu Zhenren mistakenly believed that everything Wu Liang did was the will of Zhuge Xianren.

However, the deceptive mushroom can fool people for a while, but not forever.

In particular, Wu Liang died once at that time.

From the moment Wu Liang's soul returned to the Yellow Springs, the influence of the Deceitful Mushroom on Bone Master vanished without a trace.

At that time, Bone Master already understood something.

At that time, when Wu Liang passed away, he had considered whether to take the opportunity to betray him and surrender to Zhuge Liang.

This is why, due to Gu Zhenren's hesitation and indecision, Wu Liang was unable to wait for the Resurrection Grass to be ignited in the Yellow Springs.

That's right, Wu Liang's long delay on the road to the underworld was not because the flow of time in the underworld and the mortal world was different.

The real reason was simply that Bone Master was hesitating at that time about whether or not to betray Wu Liang.

The reason why Bone Immortal didn't take the opportunity to betray Wu Liang was entirely because the Soul-Leading Chicken didn't give him a chance to do so, as it had already run off to the Yellow Springs to rescue Wu Liang.

Of course, the fact that the soul-leading chicken got there first was only one of the reasons.

The real reason why Gu Zhenren gave up the opportunity to betray Wu Liang was that, at that time, he considered that even if he betrayed Wu Liang, Zhuge Xianren might not take him seriously.

On the contrary, befriending someone who dares to scheme against immortals, possesses extraordinary talent, and is suspected to be a reincarnation of a venerable being, might be more likely to propel him to great heights.

As the saying goes, of all the great achievements, none surpasses the merit of following the dragon.

If Master Gu can make the right bet this time!
Even if he is merely a zombie clinging to life, he might still earn the title of a protector of the Dao, leaving his mark on history and becoming all-powerful... (End of Chapter)
