Wake Up As Gay Werewolf Prince [BL]

131 THE ENTHUSIASTIC SWORD

‘These three men were ordered by Emperor Bai Guowei to protect Shao Meihui, but they did not look panicked when they received information about the woman’s death. It seemed they had expected it. What does that mean?’ Behind the golden mask, Wu Jinhai furrowed his brows as he tried to analyze the situation.

Of course, he had guessed that there was something fishy about the three men ever since he saw them near the core area in the forest, but he was still unsure about their goal.

Wu Jinhai knew some important things that happened in the Dong Lang Empire. He knew that the current Emperor of Dong Lang was from the White Werewolf Clan, and he also knew that the clan had no peaceful relations with the Black Werewolf Clan.

True, there was never an open war between the two parties, but the cold war between the two was not something that people could ignore. Even the people in Wu Li Empire knew about that matter, so no one would say that the matter was simple.

Matters related to the two clans were always sensitive and dangerous, and when Wu Jinhai discovered that the three men assigned to protect someone from the Black Werewolf Clan ended up bringing danger to that person, he couldn’t help but think that there was a conspiracy behind all of this.

‘Is it true that Emperor Bai Guowei wants to kill Shao Meihui? But he also had plans to arrange a marriage between Bai Chen and Shao Meihui, right? Why did he want to kill the girl instead?’ Wu Jinhai kept wondering in his heart, but all of his questions remained unanswered.

Matters related to the two clans were indeed none of his business, but he happened to witness things happening in the Forbidden Forest, so he knew that he couldn’t pretend like he didn’t know anything.

“Are you also the one who broke the barrier that locked the dangerous beasts within the core?” Wu Jinhai once again opened his mouth to question the three men.

That was a theory that formed in his head when he had just seen the three men around the core area. There were only three men in the area, and he couldn’t help but suspect those people for breaking the barrier.

.....

The barrier was now shattered, and all the high-level beasts within the barrier happily fled from there to attack the people in the outer area. Perhaps even low and middle-level beasts could not escape their deaths either if they ended up running into a stronger beast, and Wu Jinhai knew that the situation within the forest would not be the same again.

“I heard that Prince Wu Jinhai of the Wu Li Empire is not someone who would talk too much, but I don’t think the rumors are completely accurate,” the man with a scar on his face replied to Wu Jinhai’s words sarcastically.

Of course, Wu Jinhai had indeed spoken a lot since he had met the three men for the first time a few minutes ago, and he did look different from his original character.

The three men chose to limit the words that came out of their mouths for some reason, and it was Wu Jinhai who continued to arrange the words to speak to them.

Even if he had remained lowkey all this time, some rumors about him could still be heard by people in the Wu Li or Dong Lang Empire, and even rumors about him being a quiet man were also heard by people from Dong Lang.

Wu Jinhai finally smirked when he heard the sarcasm before replying, “I will remain silent when nothing manages to interest me, but it will be different if there are some interesting things around me. I won’t be able to stop talking if that happens.”

Instead of being annoyed by the man’s sarcasm, Wu Jinhai calmly returned the mockery, and he could see how the man was laughing in front of him.

“I am also interested in you, Prince Wu Jinhai,” the man replied. “You wear your mask all the time, and I’ve always wondered what you’re hiding behind your mask.”

Most people who met him would always be curious about his mask, but Wu Jinhai ignored them without feeling the need to take off his mask for the people to see his face.

Even if he was asked to take off his mask, he never listened to the orders, and he kept everyone curious after meeting him. Even when he had hot activities with Bai Chen before, he also didn’t let the man see his face, so why did he have to show his face in front of others?

“I was just hiding the ugliness on my face. You don’t need to be curious about that,” Wu Jinhai replied casually.

The rumor about his ugliness was indeed one of the most popular rumors about him out there. He didn’t know the first person to spread such a rumor, but most people in the world would think that he was covering his face because he was too ugly.

Wu Jinhai had heard such rumors about him for years, but he did not bother to confirm whether the rumors were true or not. In the end, only he and a few people could see his face, and only those people could judge whether he was really ugly or not.

“Is that so?” The man in black lightly responded to Wu Jinhai’s answer, but he didn’t seem to believe in that reasoning at all. “But I’ve also heard rumors that you hide your flaws under the mask, and those blemishes aren’t just your ugliness, Your Highness.”

“...” Wu Jinhai did not immediately answer this time.

He had always said that he was hiding his ugliness behind the golden mask, but several other rumors related to his mask were still spreading in both Wu Li and Dong Lang, and he never had the initiative to wipe those rumors down.

“I’m not in the mood to talk about myself,” Wu Jinhai finally replied. “I just want to know the reason why you broke the barrier. You even have the power to break the powerful barrier set up by the Immortal Daoist of Wu Li and the Immortal Elder of Dong Lang, and I believe the three of you are not just ordinary people.”

The barrier was uncommon, so the people who managed to break the barrier were also extraordinary for sure. However, even if Wu Jinhai was alone at the moment, he felt no fear even if he had to fight all three men at once.

“We will tell you everything if you can beat us, but if you end up being the one to lose, you have to take off your mask and show us what you are hiding behind that mask. What do you think of that, Your Highness?” The man with the scar on his face dared to challenge Wu Jinhai, and the man in red gritted his teeth when he saw the courage.

Wu Jinhai was not someone who would run away when someone dared to challenge him, and that was why he immediately raised his sword in front of his face as he whispered into the sword, “Wu Jiang, I know you have a new master now, but you still have to fight side by side with me this time, okay?”

The white crystal on the pommel of the sword suddenly emitted white light several times as if it was very enthusiastic to fight alongside its old master.

Wu Jinhai had lied to Bai Chen. He told the innocent man that the sword would only listen to him after he called the name of the sword, but that was not true. In fact, Wu Jinhai could still control the sword, and the sword would still listen to him.

He just thought that it would be fun for him to see how Bai Chen looked so excited after receiving such a fine sword. Subconsciously, he smiled behind the golden mask as he recalled the memory.

The innocent and weak Prince dared to enter the Forbidden Forest to take part in the Beast Hunting Event, and the man only carried an old sword that couldn’t even be used to slash dry leaves. No wonder the young man looked very happy after receiving the sword from him.

His sword was indeed good, and it was far from ordinary. After Wu Jinhai finished giving the order, he quickly let go of his sword, but instead of directly falling to the ground, it floated in midair as white light continued to shroud it.

It seemed that the sword could understand Wu Jinhai’s orders, and the sword suddenly pulled itself out of its scabbard before floating through the air by itself. The scabbard fell to the ground, but the silver sword still floated right beside Wu Jinhai’s figure.

Wu Jinhai glanced at Bai Chen who was still sleeping a few feet behind him before turning to the silver sword, “Let’s finish it before your new master wakes up.”
