Wake Up As Gay Werewolf Prince [BL]

Chapter 398 - 398 WHAT MAKES YOU BETTER THAN HIM?

398 WHAT MAKES YOU BETTER THAN HIM?

“Let go of those innocent people immediately, Shao Yaoting!” Trying to contain his anger, Bai Lang instructed the old man standing beside him.

This kind of thing expectedly came from a bad person like Shao Yaoting. The old man could even concoct evil scenarios during this time, and trapping innocent people amid wild beasts wasn’t something unexpected.

Bai Lang also felt worried in his heart when he realized how empty the Dong Lang residential area was. He could feel the remnants of the auras of the people in the residential area when Bai Chen, Yu Ming, and Wu Jingguo walked through the area, and he deduced that Shao Yaoting had just started trapping those people in the core of the Forbidden Forest earlier today.

But, it didn’t matter whether it had been too long or not since Shao Yaoting did that kind of thing, right? What mattered right now was how terrified those people looked amidst the beasts. Sure enough, there was a semi-transparent barrier around the large group of people, but it was the semi-transparent object that made them see how they were currently surrounded by hungry beasts.

In their eyes, the barrier was just a thin object, and it was clear that they were afraid that the dangerous beasts would be able to destroy it.

“Who do you call innocent, My Lord? Can’t you see that the bastard white wolf is among those people?” Calmly, Shao Yaoting answered Bai Lang’s order.

Shao Yaoting did look calm even though his wrist was now tied by a strand of Bai Lang’s white hair. That strand of hair did look thin and fragile, but it was so strong to hold the old man under control, and that was why the old man couldn’t get away from it.

At this time, Bai Lang did not respond immediately, and he focused his blue eyes on one of the figures within the inner barrier at the core of the Forbidden Forest. He could see the pale and weak Bai Guowei among the group of weak werewolves.

Bai Guowei looked extremely weak, which was why Bai Lang almost failed to notice his aura. It seemed that the Emperor’s current aura was similar to that of the low-level werewolves around him, and that was why Bai Lang didn’t immediately notice his presence if his blue eyes missed his figure.

.....

Bai Guowei also looked very lost amidst the innocent people. As the other werewolves looked terrified as the beasts surrounded them, the Emperor of Dong Lang just stared blankly at the void in front of him.

It was easy to guess that the white-haired man was still shaken by what had happened to him. He had lost his Power Crystal, and that was the reason behind his current weakened state. That fact was such a huge blow to him that he still couldn’t accept it until now.

“We both know very well that Bai Guowei is far from innocent, right, My Lord?” Shao Yaoting spoke again while Bai Lang remained silent. “He is just an arrogant and greedy Emperor. He thinks he is the strongest werewolf in Dong Lang, and because of that, he thinks he can do anything on this land. He is very greedy, and all he cares about is the throne. And you too know how often he takes advantage of the commoners, right, My Lord? All these years, Bai Guowei tried to make himself rich using those peasants’ money. You can’t pretend to be blind in this, My Lord.”

“...” Bai Lang still did not give an answer.

Of course, he knew everything that Bai Guowei had done after he was appointed as the Emperor of Dong Lang all those years ago. There was no denying that he was an honorable Emperor who had managed to protect his people for many years, but there was also no denying that the white-haired Emperor didn’t have a pure heart, and he was indeed driven by his greed most of the time.

Bai Guowei had indeed protected his people all along, but that protection was not free. Instead, he asked for taxes for the protection he offered the people, and since the people could only rely on the powerful werewolves in the Rongyao Imperial Palace, they had no choice but to pay the amount demanded by their Emperor.

Of course, Bai Lang knew about it, and that’s why he didn’t immediately answer Shao Yaoting’s question because the answer was obvious.

However, after a moment of silence, Bai Lang glanced at the black-haired man standing beside him before asking back, “Do you think you are better than Bai Guowei, Shao Yaoting? What makes you think you are better than him?”

“…” This time, it was Shao Yaoting who couldn’t form a sentence right away to answer the question from the Immortal Elder.

When Shao Yaoting fell silent, Bai Lang smiled slightly before opening his mouth once again, “You are no better than Bai Guowei, Shao Yaoting. You have been so manipulative over the years. You tricked Tang Yanmei, and you also deliberately widened the gap between Bai Chen and Bai Renshu. You can even sacrifice your niece to achieve your goal, and how can you say that Bai Guowei is greedy when you are greedier than him, Shao Yaoting? Bai Guowei does think about his throne a lot, but you also think about how you can seize the throne from him, right? That’s why you are no better than him, and now you must let go of him and the other werewolves before you become a worse person, Shao Yaoting.”

It was a long counterattack from Bai Lang, and Shao Yaoting still couldn’t voice out a counter to the Immortal Elder’s verbal attack. His expression grew uglier after hearing the Elder’s lecture, but then he suddenly chuckled. The old man in black did laugh at this time, but the laughter sounded like a death knell in Bai Lang’s ears.

“You want me to let those people go, right, My Lord? Alright, I’ll grant your wish now,” Shao Yaoting finally replied, and before Bai Lang could respond, the old man had already moved his hands to form a hand seal, and in the twinkling of an eye, the barrier around the weak werewolves in the forest core was broken, and now there was nothing to protect those people from the hungry beasts.
