Mushroom Man

That's right.

It's malicious.

Wu Liang possesses the ability to perceive the changes in people's hearts, allowing him to keenly detect these shifts.

And just now...

The two dragon maids inexplicably radiated malice the moment they saw him.

This left Wu Liang somewhat puzzled.

If he remembered correctly, the two dragon maids were named Ah Hong and Ah Lan.

However, he seemed to have no prior interaction with these two dragon maids, and had never even spoken to them.

In this situation, why would these two guys harbor such malice towards him?

As the saying goes, people's hearts are treacherous, and we must be wary of them.

Although Wu Liang did not know why the two dragon maids harbored ill will towards him, he secretly became wary of them.

"Young Master Wu?"

Perhaps because Wu Liang had been silent for too long, 'Ah Hong and Ah Lan' couldn't help but urge him on.

Upon hearing this, Wu Liang nodded and then politely said, "Then please lead the way, gentlemen..."

'Ah Hong' and 'Ah Lan' showed no sign of anything amiss. After bowing slightly, they led the way.

Wu Liang was not deterred by the two men's malice.

He pretended to know nothing, remaining calm and composed, and followed closely behind.

"hiss……"

At this moment, all the onlookers, including the Dragon Mushroom Masters, gasped in astonishment.

They never expected that Wu Shuai, whom they had just mocked, would actually be granted permission to enter the palace to visit the princess.

But these dragon people were the ones being kept outside...

For a moment, the dragon people blushed with embarrassment, feeling as if they had been making a fool of themselves with their previous outrageous remarks.

The only dragon-human who was unaffected was Prince Ao Tang.

When Prince Ao Tang saw that Commander Wu had been invited inside, he quickly straightened his clothes and prepared to follow him in.

However, he had only taken two steps when the dragon maiden guarding the gate stopped him.

"Prince Ao Tang, you cannot go in."

"Lord Silver Dragon King, he only said that Young Master Wu could enter, but he didn't mention you..."

The dragon maiden guarding the gate was loyal and dutiful, showing no fear even when facing Prince Ao Tang.

Upon hearing this, Crown Prince Ao Tang looked on incredulously.

He pointed to Wu Shuai walking away, then pointed to himself.

"What are you doing?"

"If he can get in, why can't I, the Crown Prince?"

The dragon maiden guarding the gate shook her head, her meaning clear.

When Prince Ao Tang saw this, he was dumbfounded.

what's the situation?
Even a prince of the Dragon Palace like him gets turned away, so how come Brother Wu, a human mushroom master, can get in and out of the house without any problems?

Is this still the Dragon Palace?

It seems like he doesn't have as much influence as Brother Wu...

Prince Ao Tang had a strange expression on his face, secretly questioning the meaning of life.

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Wu Liang followed Ah Hong and Ah Lan and soon arrived at the princess's boudoir.

He immediately spotted the exhausted Silver Dragon King standing guard by the bedside, and the unconscious Ao Miaoyin.

This was also the first time that 'Ah Hong and Ah Lan' had ever seen the Silver Dragon King.

The two exchanged a barely perceptible glance, a hint of apprehension flashing in their eyes.

Now they are just tiny fragments of souls, and the bodies they possess are nothing more than second-level mushroom masters.

If this dragon-man, whose cultivation level was at least at the fifth rank, noticed something amiss with them, they would likely waste their chance to sneak in. Thinking of this, 'Ah Hong and Ah Lan' secretly braced themselves.

Fortunately, their worries were unnecessary.

The Silver Dragon King had no time to spare; he was focused on his two dragon maids.

He raised his eyelids, nodded at Wu Liang, and then looked at 'Ah Hong and Ah Lan'.

"You may leave..."

"I wish to have a private conversation with young friend Wu."

Upon hearing this, Ah Hong and Ah Lan, though curious about what these two were going to talk about, had no choice but to obediently retreat due to their lowly status after being possessed.

After the two dragon maids left, Wu Liang's eyes flickered before he looked at the Silver Dragon King and asked a question.

"Senior Silver Dragon King, why did Miss Miaoyin suddenly faint? Could it be that incurable illness...?"

Before Wu Liang could finish speaking, the Silver Dragon King sighed and interrupted him.

"That's right, Miaoyin's chronic illness has relapsed."

"And this time it was even more ferocious than before, so much so that it has not yet woken up."

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

He looked at Ao Miaoyin on the bed, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes.

Wu Liang took a deep breath, then asked with some doubt, "Senior Silver Dragon King, I remember you still have some Dragon Blood Mushrooms there, don't you?"

"If Princess Miaoyin's chronic illness relapses, the Dragon Blood Mushroom should be able to suppress it, so it shouldn't be this serious."

The Silver Dragon King shook his head, and said with some confusion, "To be honest, I am also quite puzzled by this."

"At that time, I had already fed the Dragon Blood Mushroom to Miaoyin immediately."

"However, for some reason, it had no effect whatsoever, and instead aggravated the chronic disease."

"Later, I used all the dragon blood mushrooms in one go, which barely stabilized the condition."

At this point, the Silver Dragon King couldn't help but look up at Wu Liang, his tone filled with hope.

"Miaoyin's condition is not optimistic. She needs more Dragon Blood Mushrooms to wake her up from her coma."

"Moreover, if the chronic disease worsens again during this period, the consequences will be unimaginable."

"Young friend Wu, I wonder... how is your deduction of the Dragon Blood Mushroom formula progressing?"

How's the progress...?

It's only been a few days, there's no way we can hand over the recipe for Dragon Blood Mushroom now.

It's important to know that developing a mushroom recipe usually takes several months.

If Wu Liang were to hand over the recipe for Dragon Blood Mushroom now, he would not only fail to gain the Silver Dragon King's gratitude, but would also cause unnecessary trouble and suspicion.

Therefore, he would only offer the Dragon Blood Mushroom recipe when the Silver Dragon King was desperate and had nowhere else to turn, so that he could provide timely help.

Only in this way can we maximize our benefits.

Furthermore, the longer he delays this matter, the more advantageous it will be for him.

After all, he is now the only hope to save Ao Miaoyin.

Before he could deduce the recipe for the Dragon Blood Mushroom, the Silver Dragon King would absolutely not allow anything to happen to him...

Wu Liang's mind was racing, but on the surface he feigned guilt and silently shook his head, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Seeing his appearance, the Silver Dragon King immediately understood that the Dragon Blood Mushroom project had made no progress.

A hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes, but he was not surprised by it.

The Silver Dragon King knew perfectly well how difficult it was to deduce the mushroom recipe.

It's impossible to deduce the recipe for Dragon Blood Mushroom in just a few days.

Moreover, this child also needs to refine the Righteous Qi Mushroom to deal with the Golden Dragon King.

In this situation, where would we find the time to deduce the mushroom recipe?

He asked the question only as a last resort, just to try anything.

However, just as the Silver Dragon King was exhausted and deeply disappointed, and was about to say something... (End of Chapter)
