Mushroom Man

"Boom, rumble, crack!"

Thirty miles of dark clouds obscured the sun; in an instant, golden branches cut through the ink and emerged from the clouds.

Lightning flashes and stretches its branches wildly amidst the rolling dark clouds in an instant, only to die in the blink of an eye.

This situation truly suggests that a storm is brewing.

"Why do we have to hold the competition in this awful weather?"

"It's all because of Young Master Zhenlong. He's at odds with that young master of our Star Palace again, and they're going to make another bet today."

"Oh dear, these big shots can make us fight to the death and suffer all kinds of hardships with just a word. It's really unfair."

"Sigh, let's not talk about it anymore, it's just a little rain."

“A betting match or a duel can’t be canceled just because of a little rain. We’re not that precious.”

"Alright, this will have to do..."

On the golden tower of the Chaotic Star Gambling House, heroes gather.

They all sit within the railings, above the tea table, enjoying a pot of light green tea and a few small plates of snacks.

Mushroom masters of all shapes and sizes sat in twos and threes, and all of them had their eyes fixed on the arena set up below the Golden Pavilion.

Snapped!
The first raindrop hit the ring and shattered.

The two mushroom masters on the stage exchanged a glance, and then simultaneously launched their attacks.

They clashed with each other, exchanging blows back and forth, creating quite a lively scene.

In just a few breaths, they had exchanged dozens of blows.

This water-savvy mushroom can utilize heavy rain for its own purposes in every action.

That mushroom, skilled in using fire channels, unleashed a torrent of flames, evaporating a torrential downpour of heat.

The two are irreconcilable, and their battle will be fought to the death.

The onlookers on the golden tower applauded and cheered from time to time.

Many of them also participated in the gambling...

Seeing their bets on the mushroom master falling behind, the gamblers became increasingly anxious, their faces turning red and their necks bulging.

The myriad aspects of life are vividly displayed here...

Wu Liang paused downstairs for a moment, then looked away, secretly regretting it.

If I had known there was such a good place on Chaotic Star Island, I should have come here sooner.

In this way, by taking advantage of the myriad forms of these mushroom masters to refine mushrooms, it is possible to upgrade the myriad forms of mushrooms into the fourth-stage ever-changing mushrooms.

Wu Liang went upstairs and soon met the senior executives who had been waiting for him.

The senior executives did not react when they saw him.

This is normal, after all, Wu Liang didn't come here using Zhuo Buqun's face.

"This must be the senior executive, right?"

"My name is Wu Di, and I was introduced by Brother Zhuo."

Wu Liang cupped his hands in a respectful bow and was the first to greet them, appearing quite humble.

It was only at this point that the executives noticed this seemingly ordinary man.

At first glance, Wu Liang doesn't look like a tough guy who can fight.

However, the senior executives were knowledgeable and experienced, and did not judge Wu Liang by his appearance.

He laughed heartily, returned the greeting with a polite bow, and said, "So it's Brother Wu. I've been waiting for you for a long time."

"The young master is currently having tea in a private room on the top floor. Please come in with me to meet him, Brother Wu."

"If Brother Wu can gain the young master's approval this time, then from now on we can be colleagues."

"Brother Wu, don't forget me then..."

Upon hearing this, Wu Liang smiled but remained silent.

He wasn't foolish enough to take what the senior executives said seriously.

Even if he gains the young master's favor this time, he will only be a guest retainer. To put it nicely, he's a guest retainer; to put it bluntly, he's just a thug.

But the senior executive is the second-in-command of the Zhenlong caravan; it's hardly his place to promote someone.

Meanwhile, just as Wu Liang was accompanying the executives to meet the young master Zhenlong...

the other side.

Bai Xiaosheng mingled in the Chaotic Star Gambling House, his mood complicated and his thoughts swirling.

At this moment, he was still pondering how to make contact with the man who always kept his word and complete the pledge of allegiance to the Holy Church.

Just then, one of the managers of the Chaotic Star Casino noticed him.

The manager walked over discreetly, and as he passed by Bai Xiaosheng, he suddenly spoke in a low voice for no apparent reason.

"Heaven and earth are dark and yellow, the sacred fire burns fiercely, all my disciples, let us work together with one heart and one mind!"

"The Special Envoy has ordered me to inform Your Excellency that it is time to begin the operation."

"Now, the principle of 'what is said must be done' is in the hall of one's own words, and there are also my disciples hiding there."

"Your Excellency only needs to go to the meeting place, and you will naturally be able to infiltrate the one-man show and see what Yan Bixing has to do."

"As for what you will do next, that depends on your methods..."

Upon hearing this, even Bai Xiaosheng was taken aback.

A look of shock flashed in his eyes, and he opened his mouth as if to ask something else.

However, before he could even speak, the manager had already walked away as if nothing had happened.

And this manager was none other than Manager Qian, who had been brainwashed by Wu Liang with the idea that human nature is unpredictable.

"hiss……"

Bai Xiaosheng looked around and suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, his scalp tingling.

He truly hadn't expected the Holy Church's infiltration to be so terrifying!
I was just wandering around casually, but I still managed to run into that Holy Church envoy.

You must know, this is the Chaotic Star Gambling House!
As far as he knew, the mushroom masters who could serve as managers at the Chaotic Star Casino were basically all family members trained by the casino from a young age.

Even so, it was still infiltrated by the Holy Church, the implications of which are self-evident.

Without a doubt, this time it really scared Bai Xiaosheng.

The horror of the Holy Church far exceeded his expectations.

"No wonder……"

"No wonder the Holy Sect can still survive despite being wanted by the major powers of Buddhism, Taoism, and Huangting."

"Such terrifying penetration demonstrates just how exaggerated the Holy Church's control over the mortal masses truly is."

"They have completely integrated into the masses, and no one knows whether someone next to them might be a member of the Holy Church."

Bai Xiaosheng was a clever man, so he always liked to overthink things.

The thought of a money manager filled him with wild thoughts, scaring himself to death.

For a moment, Bai Xiaosheng's eyes showed even more fear.

He originally wanted to delay and find the most suitable opportunity to submit this pledge of loyalty.

However, after this urging, he completely lost the idea of ​​delaying any longer.

Bai Xiaosheng took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the turmoil surging in his heart.

He knew perfectly well that the Holy Church's special envoy had sent someone to urge him on, with the sole purpose of giving him a warning.

That guy was trying to tell him that once he got on the Holy Church's pirate ship, he shouldn't even think about getting off.

Otherwise, he would have countless ways to make it common knowledge that he is the successor of the Wuxiang lineage.

Bai Xiaosheng, confident that he had guessed the Holy Church envoy's meaning, gritted his teeth, left the Chaotic Star Gambling House, and headed straight for the One-Man Hall.

No sooner had he left than Manager Qian relayed the news to Wu Liang through a liaison.

"Your Excellency, the pawns have begun their move..." (End of Chapter)
