Chapter 416: #416 - Chapter 416: Pretty Good at Pretending

Hearing the wine stall owner's advice, Ye Hongyi was about to say that she could solve the Black Wind Mountain demon for them, but Gu Changsheng, who was sitting next to her, took out his wine pot that had been with him for five hundred thousand years and placed it on the table, saying, "Since you're inviting us, would you mind filling this wine pot for me?"

The wine stall owner was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "Haha, anyway, these are just material possessions. If you like the wine I brew, I'll be happy, so how could I mind?"

With that, the wine stall owner picked up the wine pot, went into the house, and after a long while, he came out and handed the wine pot to Gu Changsheng, saying, "Guest, I didn't expect your wine pot to be so big."

"It's quite big." Gu Changsheng nodded.

Gu Changsheng and his group sat at the wine stall for about half an incense stick of time before leaving.

When they left, the wine stall owner also pointed out the direction of Black Wind Mountain to them, so that they could avoid that direction when leaving.

On the street, there were few people, only Gu Changsheng and his group walking on the road.

"Master, where are we going next?" Ye Hongyi asked.

"What do you think?" Gu Changsheng asked knowingly.

"Hehe, this disciple wants to subdue demons and eliminate evil!" Ye Hongyi said with a smile.

"Then let's go to Black Wind Mountain."

So the group headed towards Black Wind Mountain.

...

"Hey, Old Xu, did you point them in the wrong direction?"

In front of the wine stall, an old man asked the wine stall owner.

"No, I didn't." The wine stall owner shook his head.

"Then just now I saw those four young people heading towards Black Wind Mountain. If you didn't point them in the wrong direction, could it be that they went the wrong way?"

"What?" The wine stall owner was immediately shocked. He was just about to run up and chase after Gu Changsheng and his group when he suddenly froze.

"Old Xu, what are you doing? Aren't you going to chase them?" The old man said.

The wine stall owner shook his head and said, "No need to chase them. I think our Black Wind Town won't have to suffer the threat of that damned Black Wind Mountain demon anymore."

"What nonsense are you talking about? If you don't chase them, I will."

After the old man finished speaking, he left the wine stall and walked in the direction Gu Changsheng and his group had left. After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the old man returned, panting, "That's strange, it hasn't been long since they left, but I couldn't catch up?"

"If you could catch up, that Black Wind Mountain demon would have died at your hands long ago."

The wine stall owner poured him a bowl of wine.

The old man took the wine and drank it all in one gulp. After calming his breathing, he said, "Back then, even Tianlang wasn't a match for that mountain demon. What are you teasing me for? Uh... Old Xu, I didn't mean to bring him up, don't mind."

When the wine stall owner heard the name "Tianlang", a look of sadness flashed in his eyes. He said, "It's okay, it's been so long, come, drink."

Really okay?

The old man didn't believe it.

Old Xu's son, Xu Tianlang, was a very powerful expert back then, but ten years ago, when fighting the Black Wind Mountain demon, he was no match for the Black Wind Mountain demon and died in the belly of the Black Wind Mountain demon. Xu Tianlang's death completely cut off the roots of the Old Xu family, which filled Old Xu with hatred for the Black Wind Mountain demon.

But what's the use of hatred? Old Xu is just an old mortal. Not to mention revenge, even climbing that Black Wind Mountain is an impossible task for him.

What could be more tragic than a white-haired person sending off a black-haired person and being unable to avenge them?

After the old man left, Old Xu cleaned up the wine stall and returned to the house.

Old Xu looked at the surrounding wine jars, which were already empty.

The wine in the wine jars was now all in that young man's wine pot. When he was pouring the wine, he didn't notice anything wrong at all. It wasn't until now that he remembered that the young man's wine pot was really too big.

It actually filled up all the wine in his house before it was full.

"Immortals, they must be immortals. Tianlang, your father is incompetent and cannot avenge you, so I can only place my hopes on these immortals."

Old Xu was already in tears at this moment.

...

Black Wind Mountain is named because it is shrouded in a black mist all year round, and strange wind sounds often come from the mountain. Usually, no one dares to approach it, but today, Gu Changsheng brought Ye Hongyi and his group here to subdue demons and eliminate evil for the people.

"Master, then I'll go?"

At the foot of Black Wind Mountain, Ye Hongyi said to Gu Changsheng.

"Go ahead." Gu Changsheng waved his hand, and then he found a bluestone, waved his hand, swept away the moss and dust on the stone, took out the wine pot that had just been filled with wine, lay down on it, and happily opened the wine pot and took a sip.

Seeing this, Ye Hongyi didn't know what to say. Everything about her master was good, and the only shortcoming was probably his love of wine, but this shortcoming didn't seem so bad. All in all, her master was a perfect person.

Ye Hongyi glanced at the Black Wind Mountain shrouded in black clouds and mist, and then without hesitation, she rose into the air and rushed directly into the black mist.

"Miss, wait for me."

Seeing this, the Heavenly Peng Ancient Emperor also quickly followed. He was the young lady's mount, so naturally he would go wherever the young lady went.

Needless to say, Bai Zhiyin, as a protector, it was her duty to protect Ye Hongyi, but she could see through the details of Black Wind Mountain at a glance. The Black Wind Mountain demon entrenched in Black Wind Mountain was just a small demon that was neither high nor low. For Honghong, there was no challenge at all.

But out of her duty as a protector, she still followed Ye Hongyi from a distance.

Suddenly, only Gu Changsheng was left at the foot of the mountain.

Gu Changsheng raised the wine pot high. This wine pot looked like it was made of ordinary material, but in fact, the material was indeed very ordinary.

This wine pot was a ceramic wine pot, only because it had been with Gu Changsheng for many years and was stained with Gu Changsheng's aura, it was not ordinary.

Moreover, this wine pot was of extraordinary significance to Gu Changsheng.

At the bottom of the wine pot, there were two characters engraved, one was the "Yao" of Yaochi, and the other was the "Sheng" of Changsheng. If he had a daughter, then her name would be Gu Yao, and originally Gu Sheng's name should have been Gu Sheng, but Gu Sheng sounded a little awkward, plus the reason for the Holy Body, Gu Changsheng changed the character "Sheng" to the character "Sheng", and from then on Gu Sheng was called Gu Sheng.

This wine pot was the first gift Yaoji gave him, because he loved to drink, Yaoji knew it, so she started to make a wine pot for him.

At that time, they were not married, and were still in a state of being more than friends but less than lovers. After receiving the wine pot from Yaoji, Gu Changsheng proposed marriage to Yaochi Holy Land.

In the blink of an eye, this wine pot had been with him for five hundred thousand years.

"There are still nine hundred and seventy-eight years!" A smile appeared on Gu Changsheng's face.

"Huh?"

Gu Changsheng's face suddenly darkened, and then his figure flashed and disappeared.
