Venerated Venomous Consort

The Purple Cloud Mushroom was the last hope that Gu Xijiu had to keep Di Fuyi alive. She would do anything to retrieve enough for Di Fuyi.

Due to the urgency that Gu Xijiu faced, she did not want to fight at this time. She was anxious to pick up a few mushrooms and quickly return to the Biwu Palace.

“I’ll only pick 12.” There was a large piece of land here, with hundreds of Purple Cloud Mushrooms. She thought that it should be okay for her to take 12. However, the giant dragon was unreasonable. “No! You can’t even pick one! All the mushrooms here belong to me!”

Gu Xijiu’s eyes become more fierce. “Don’t regret it! If you force me to fight with you, I will take more than 12!”

The giant dragon laughed. “You are just a little human, and you dare to threaten me! You should give up. You are not going to take a single mushroom back.”

Gu Xijiu did not want to waste time on it anymore! She pulled out the long whip from her waist. “Alright. You asked for it. Don’t blame me!” Before attacking the dragon, Gu Xijiu realized that its blood could also help prolong Di Fuyi’s life.

The mussel knew that the fight was inevitable, so it also threatened the dragon. “You are such a stubborn creature! You must be a lousy dragon to still have this form after ten thousand years. You are not qualified to own all the mushrooms here! I am going to cut you into pieces and bake you for dinner!”

The giant dragon could not believe how irrational these people were to take it on; it was dumbfounded! It roared thunderously that the land beneath it was shaking. It then hovered around and turned to rush forward toward the mussel!

The mussel was ready and instinctively released its defense mechanism. Lu Wu also prepared itself to attack the unreasonable dragon.

After 15 minutes. The mussel’s eight-snake spears had been shattered while Lu Wu’s tails were burnt. It became apparent that these two beasts were not at the same level as this dragon. Fortunately, Gu Xijiu had blocked most of the attacks from the dragon, or else these two beasts would have been its dinner instead!

Although the dragon proved to be a powerful opponent, Gu Xijiu was not ready to concede! She continuously attacked the creature with her sword and whip. The constant attacks made the dragon grow frustrated. It wanted to destroy her!

Under its violent attack, Gu Xijiu felt as though she was in a boat during a raging storm. If she were unlucky, it would capsize at any time. Therefore, she regularly retreated. However, the giant dragon continued to chase after her.

After some time, they were both far away from the prized treasure that they sought. At first, the mussels and Lu Wu were moving along with the two of them. However, both beasts slowly faded into the background.

Initially, the giant dragon was very alert and protected the mushrooms. However, after a few strikes, it did not even pay attention to them anymore. They were now miles away.

Suddenly, the dragon realized that the mussel was missing! It immediately wanted to fly back to check on the mushrooms. However, it was too late.

“Master, I have picked up the Purple Cloud Mushrooms! Look!”

It opened its shell, and there were dark and light purple mushrooms inside. The mushrooms almost filled up its shell.

There were so many of them that a stranger might have thought it collected all Purple Cloud Mushroom from the land!
