道罗邪皇子 (邪神之道 B4)

The Smile of a Rotten Government Official

"Fellow Daoist you too must be someone from the Primordial Continent. Why not tell me your name?"

"..."

Opening his eyes Ye Gui Feng looks towards Wu Gongchen with calm eyes.

The expression on Ye Gui Feng's face is that of thoughtfulness as he is seemingly attempting to figure out Wu Gongchen's identity as well.

This kind of expression doesn't surprise Wu Gongchen as he finds it to be natural under the circumstances.

"..."

Momentarily Ye Gui Feng smiles.

Without Wu Gongchen noticing a thing Ye Gui Feng causes a jade slip to appear in his right hand. This jade slip is hidden away by his long sleeves.

"Indeed. This one's name is Xie Huangzi."

"..."

The name doesn't sound familiar to Wu Gongchen but he instinctively felt like there is something eerie about the person.

"Meeting here must have been fate then fellow Daoist Xie. My name is Wu Gongchen."

Seemingly not minding the incident in which Ye Gui Feng had stolen all of the cultivation essence from before Wu Gongchen puts on a friendly smile.

"Fellow Daoist Wu since you had pretended to be the Wei family's ancestor you must have been planning to end these inferior realm practitioners after harvesting them."

While saying these words Ye Gui Feng puts on the expression of a willy old fox as he looks to Wu Gongchen with a look of praise towards his methods almost as if to say that he understood him as someone of the same nature.

"Hahahaha! Indeed it is just as you say."

"Hahahaha! It must have indeed been fate for us to meet here then. I didn't expect myself to run into someone of the same Dao."

Laughing along with Wu Gongchen in an understanding way Ye Gui Feng takes out a gourd of wine and two cups while inwardly putting on an expression of coldness.

To Ye Gui Feng all those who come from the Primordial Continent are basically his enemies.

"A rare occasion must be celebrated with some wine. Don't you agree?"

Looking towards Wu Gongchen with a friendly smile Ye Gui Feng raises a cup of wine towards him.

"..."

A series of thoughts went through Wu Gongchen's mind as he attempts to assess Ye Gui Feng's behavior.

"Indeed."

Eventually Wu Gongchen also smiles back and disconnects himself from the incarnations of Shen Fu Zi to stand up and slowly approach the landmass that Ye Gui Feng is on.

The two sat apart from one another by a distance that can only be described as optimal. It wasn't too far nor was it too close.

"Cheers."

Taking the other cup of wine Wu Gongchen raises it as they both downed the contents.

"Eee?"

Upon downing the contents of the cup Wu Gongchen's eyes flashed with a hint of amazement. Although practitioners cannot hope to get drunk using mortal liquor they can never the less understand the taste of good wine when drinking them.

"Fellow Daoist from where did you obtain this wine?"

In a probing manner Wu Gongchen asks while inwardly thinking that if he knew where this wine had come from he might be able to narrow down the possibilities of Ye Gui Feng's origins.
