Mushroom Man

It’s tolerable, it’s unbearable!

If Zhuo Buqun really dares to sell Tao'er, she will drag him down with her no matter what.

The woman in the purple dress concealed the resolute look in her eyes and remained silent.

"Hmph, you slut!"

"I won't feel better until I get a few scoldings from him..."

Zhuo Buqun glanced at the woman in the purple dress and, seeing that she was no longer arguing back, assumed that she was afraid of him.

A hint of smugness flashed across his face, and his anger subsided.

Actually, when he said he wanted to sell the woman in the purple dress, he was just saying it casually.

He couldn't bear to sell his sister-in-law easily; even if he were to sell her, he would have to get a high price for her.

After all, no matter what, my sister-in-law is a level 3 mushroom master and a beautiful woman who is good at bearing children.

Although he's a bit old, those important figures in the Star Palace of Chaotic Star Island might just have a taste for this.

As for Tao'er, she was just a little girl, so it was fine to sell her.

Anyway, it's not his child, it's just his silly older brother's child, so he won't feel bad about selling it.

"Why are you still standing there?!"

"Hurry up and get ashore, go back and cook. I'm hungry, I want scallion noodle soup!"

Zhuo Buqun gave a shout and then pushed the bubbles toward the surface of the water on his own.

The woman in the purple dress watched Zhuo Buqun's retreating figure, her fists clenched until they turned blue, but she dared not utter a word to offend him at this moment and anger this beast.

She took a deep breath and had no choice but to swallow her anger and reply in humiliation, "Okay... I'll make you noodles when we get back."

After saying this, the woman in the purple dress pushed the bubbles, preparing to catch up with Zhuo Buqun.

But right now!
The once calm seabed was suddenly and inexplicably stirred up by an undercurrent.

By sheer coincidence, this undercurrent dragged both the woman in the purple dress and Zhuo Buqun into it.

The bubbles enveloping the two individuals trembled violently, threatening to burst at any moment.

"not good!"

Zhuo Buqun was shocked and panicked.

The underwater currents are extremely turbulent, and ordinary mushroom growers dare not approach them at all.

They had already been careful enough when they descended to the seabed, deliberately avoiding the undercurrents.

However, now an undercurrent has inexplicably come upon them, truly an undeserved disaster.

With the little true energy they have left, how could they possibly withstand the undercurrent and escape alive?

If the bubble bursts and I get caught in the undercurrent, I'll surely die!

Upon seeing this, the woman in the purple dress turned even paler.

She had urged Zhuo Buqun to leave as soon as possible, fearing that the underwater world was unpredictable and that they might encounter something unforeseen.

I never imagined I'd actually be a jinx. What am I going to do?

Although she was prepared to perish together with Zhuo Buqun, this was on the premise that Tao'er was settled first.

Tao'er is still waiting for her to return home. What will happen to Tao'er if she dies at this time?
Why is this world so unfair? The rope always breaks at its thinnest point, and misfortune always finds those with a hard life.
For a moment, the two were extremely flustered and at a loss.

The surging undercurrents compelled the two to head involuntarily towards the depths of the sea.

But perhaps it was not his time to die...

As the water swirled, the woman in the purple dress, who had already given up hope and was preparing to close her eyes and await death, was seen...

At that moment, for some unknown reason, it was thrown out by the current and escaped the undercurrent.

Upon seeing this, Zhuo Buqun's eyes lit up, and he immediately shouted, "Quick, come and pull me out of the undercurrent!"

The woman in the purple dress never expected to be so lucky as to escape alive. She was still somewhat dazed and terrified.

Her momentary lapse in concentration enraged Zhuo Buqun, who launched into a tirade of curses.

"Useless trash, what are you thinking!"

"Hurry up and pull me out of here!"

"If you keep dawdling like this, once I'm free, I'll give you a good slap!" Upon hearing this, the woman in the purple dress felt a tremor in her heart and a faint pain in her cheeks.

Her first instinct was to turn back and rescue Zhuo Buqun.

Even at this critical juncture, Zhuo Buqun was still cursing and swearing.

"I must have been blind to marry such a stupid pig like you."

"He can't do anything right, and when he saw me in danger, he didn't even think to risk his life to save me."

"It seems you really don't want your daughter anymore..."

Zhuo Buqun's mention of his daughter caused the woman in the purple dress to pause in her tracks.

Her eyes flickered, and she bit her lip, slowing her movements for a moment, as if hesitating whether to save Zhuo Buqun.

If they are saved, she and Tao'er will eventually be sold.

If we don't save him, the Star Palace Enforcer Mushroom Master will die, and someone will definitely come to investigate.

If they find out she stood by and did nothing to save someone in distress, who knows how the Star Palace will deal with her...

The woman in the purple dress's expression changed repeatedly as she thought of this.

Upon seeing this, Zhuo Buqun's anger intensified, and he opened his mouth as if to say something.

However, at this moment, the suction force of the undercurrent suddenly increased dramatically!

Caught off guard, Zhuo Buqun was powerless to resist and was immediately swept into the deep sea by the undercurrent.

In just a few breaths, he disappeared from the woman in the purple dress's sight.

"Dead, dead..."

The woman in the purple dress stared blankly at the scene.

She truly hadn't expected that Zhuo Buqun would die so cleanly and decisively.

Just moments ago he was cursing and swearing, but in the blink of an eye he was caught in the undercurrent, his fate unknown.

Although their fate is unknown, the mushroom masters who were swallowed by the undercurrent are essentially no different from dead.

She had originally planned to settle Tao'er down before finding a way to kill Zhuo Buqun.

Unexpectedly, this sudden accident actually helped her get rid of Zhuo Buqun.

For a moment, the woman in the purple dress felt a mix of emotions, a sense of exhilaration at having avenged her great grudge, but also a touch of worry and fear.

With Zhuo Buqun dead, Xinggong will definitely send people to investigate, and Luanxing Gambling House will also keep an eye on her and Tao'er.

She hadn't figured out her escape route yet, and with Zhuo Buqun dead, the trouble might actually be even greater!

"Run! We have to get Tao'er and run right away..."

The woman in the purple dress knew she couldn't handle Xinggong, nor could she repay Zhuo Buqun's gambling debts at Luanxing Gambling House.

Xinggong is alright, since this was just an accident after all, and at most it just made things difficult for her.

But the Chaotic Star Gambling House is no pushover. If they can't get the gambling money, and they become so ruthless that they target her and Tao'er, then things will be really bad!
Upon thinking of this, the woman in the purple dress immediately thought of going back and running away with Tao'er.

But just as she was preparing to leave and make her escape...

But Zhuo Buqun, who was in a terrible state, swam back from the seabed unharmed.

However, the bubbles around him had already burst, and he was now holding his breath, his face red and his neck bulging.

Judging from its appearance, the undercurrent must have broken the bubbles.

"Um..."

Upon seeing the woman in the purple dress, Zhuo Buqun excitedly pointed at the bubbles.

When the woman in the purple dress saw Zhuo Buqun, she was startled, thinking he was a vengeful ghost.

However, she quickly realized what was happening, her eyes filled with both disappointment and relief, and she hurriedly moved closer to him.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhuo Buqun squeezed into the woman in the purple dress's bubble, immediately gasping for breath, thus saving his life.

He patted his chest, looking terrified.

"My wife, thank goodness, that was close! I almost didn't make it back..." (End of Chapter)
