Mushroom Man

That's right!

Wu Liang never considered leaving the Dragon Palace.

Even though the so-called master of the Dragon Palace, the Bodhisattva Sudhana of the Eight Heavenly Dragons, was about to return to the palace, he never thought of leaving the Dragon Palace.

After all, he hadn't gotten his hands on the Fairy Mushroom House yet, so how could he bear to leave?
In his plan, there was absolutely no option of taking Ao Miaoyin away.

If it were before, and the Silver Dragon King had entrusted Ao Miaoyin to him and recognized him as his son-in-law, he would have been overjoyed and accepted without hesitation.

After all, marrying Ao Miaoyin and making her the Dragon Palace's consort, thus making the Silver Dragon King his backer, was part of his plan.

According to Wu Liang's plan...

He murdered Ao Miaoyin, making her seriously ill, and then forced the Silver Dragon King to rely on him to deduce the recipe for the Dragon Blood Mushroom.

This move was to secure an indispensable position for himself in the Silver Dragon King's heart.

Then, he sowed discord between the Silver Dragon King and the Gold Dragon King, leaving the Silver Dragon King isolated and helpless, all to make himself the only person the Silver Dragon King could rely on.

In this way, once Ao Miaoyin awakens, he only needs to express his feelings slightly, and he will most likely become the Dragon Palace's consort without any problems.

At that time, relying on the unbreakable relationship with the Silver Dragon King, he could further plot the Dragon Transformation Technique and even take control of the Dragon Palace.

But all of this crumbled and was destroyed in an instant because of the Silver Dragon King's promise to send him and Ao Miaoyin out of the Dragon Palace.

Once Ao Miaoyin leaves the Dragon Palace, she is no longer a dragon princess.

Even if he married Ao Miaoyin, it would mean nothing.

Not only will they not gain the support of the Silver Dragon King, but they will also have to carry a burden and become enemies of the behemoth that is the Dragon Palace.

In this situation, what use would he have for the title of imperial son-in-law?

He's not some innocent young man; why would he give up the Dragon Palace for Ao Miaoyin?

I'm numb, completely numb!
As the saying goes, plans can't keep up with changes.

At this moment, Wu Liang truly understood what it felt like to lift a stone only to drop it on one's own foot.

Meanwhile, Ao Miaoyin's thoughts were also far from calm.

'Father...is he going to betroth me to Prince Wu?'

'No, no, Father is about to do something foolish!'

If we were to ask who in the world understands the Silver Dragon King best, it would undoubtedly be Ao Miaoyin.

Although Ao Miaoyin couldn't open her eyes to see the Silver Dragon King's expression, she still sensed something was wrong based on his few words of entrustment.

The Silver Dragon King's words were clearly a prelude to his final affairs.

Upon closer examination, it makes perfect sense.

After all, in order to save Ao Miaoyin's life, the Silver Dragon King was already preparing to use the dragon people to refine mushrooms, and he also secretly opened the mirage to let Ao Miaoyin and Wu Liang go.

Each and every one of these incidents, taken individually, is a crime punishable by death.

If the Silver Dragon King is truly prepared to do this, once the Palace Master returns, he will face certain death, and may not even be qualified to be imprisoned in the Dragon-Trapping Prison.

Ao Miaoyin was a clever girl, so she quickly figured it out.

An overwhelming emotion, enough to tear her apart, enveloped her like a tidal wave.

Her eyelids trembled slightly as she tried to force herself awake, but to no avail.

The Silver Dragon King was completely unaware of this, his gaze remaining fixed on Wu Liang.

Perhaps Wu Liang's silence and furrowed brows led the Silver Dragon King to misunderstand something.

"My dear son-in-law Wu...don't you want to acknowledge me as your father-in-law?"

"Or are you worried that escaping the Dragon Palace will lead to them hunting you down?"

The Silver Dragon King tentatively asked, his tone filled with undisguised bitterness.

“If that’s the case, you have absolutely nothing to worry about.” “I will take you and Miaoyin directly to a very safe place.”

"Furthermore, I will take you back to the Dragon Palace Treasury so that you can grow as quickly as possible and become strong enough to protect Miaoyin."

"Under these circumstances, what do you have to worry about, Mr. Wu?"

Silver Dragon King's words were full of sincerity, as if he was afraid that Wu Liang would refuse.

Now that the arrow is on the bowstring, it must be released.

If Wu Liang doesn't agree to take care of Miaoyin, he won't be able to find a suitable candidate in the short term.

Under these circumstances, he had to completely bind Miaoyin to Wu Liang no matter what.

Only in this way could Miaoyin have a chance to survive after escaping the Dragon Palace.

At the same time, Wu Liang finally came to his senses, his mind racing with thoughts.

At this moment, it seems he still has an option to get the plan back on track.

That would mean completely turning against him, turning to the Golden Dragon King, and spreading the word about everything the Silver Dragon King had done.

In this way, he can calmly and unscathed escape from the mess caused by the Silver Dragon King and Ao Miaoyin.

He could even gain the Golden Dragon King's trust through this.

At that time, he will refine the Righteous Qi Mushroom and become a distinguished guest of the Dragon Palace promised by the Golden Dragon King.

After a while, it seemed that he could continue to develop his plans and then plot the Dragon Transformation Technique to take control of the Dragon Palace.

only……

Wu Liang glanced at the Silver Dragon King's expectant eyes and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

After thinking it over carefully, it didn't seem like agreeing to the Silver Dragon King's offer was a good idea.

Moreover, compared to siding with the Golden Dragon King, accepting the entrustment of the Silver Dragon King is clearly more rewarding.

First, if he agrees to the Silver Dragon King's request, he can re-enter the Dragon Palace Treasury and thus rapidly strengthen himself.

Secondly, now that he's become the Silver Dragon King's son-in-law, he should be able to master the Dragon Transformation Technique with ease.

Furthermore, compared to his original plan, temporarily escaping the Dragon Palace was a relatively safer option.

At the very least, he could avoid the Eight Heavenly Dragons and Sudhana, thus avoiding the risk of becoming a slave.

As for whether he would miss out on the Eight-Turn Immortal Mushroom House after leaving the Dragon Palace, Wu Liang didn't need to worry.

Only he knew that the Eight-Turn Immortal Mushroom House was hidden beneath the Dragon Palace.

So many years have passed and the Eight-Turn Immortal Mushroom House has never been exposed, so there's no reason why someone else would get there first.

Since he already knows the location of the Dragon Palace, he can return to this place at any time.

If that's the case, it's best to leave for now and return to the Dragon Palace with sufficient strength to seize the Eighth-Rank Immortal Mushroom House.

With Princess Ao Miaoyin by his side, he can raise the banner of the dragon people's orthodoxy and take control of the Dragon Palace... to purge the court of corrupt officials!

After Wu Liang figured all this out, he took a deep breath.

He looked at the Silver Dragon King with a solemn expression, and then, meeting his expectant gaze, spoke in a sincere tone.

"Since my father-in-law is willing to trust me, what reason do I have to refuse?"

"The son-in-law is willing to act in accordance with his father-in-law's plan."

"From now on, as long as I am alive, I will never let Miss Miaoyin suffer the slightest grievance."

"I will not allow any villains to harm Miss Miaoyin, unless they step over the corpse of my son-in-law."

"Your son-in-law is willing to take good care of Miss Miaoyin on behalf of my father-in-law, so that she may live well and never set foot in the Dragon Palace again..." (End of this chapter)
