Wake Up As Gay Werewolf Prince [BL]

133 BLACK AND WHITE CRYSTALS

Glancing at the battle area not far from him, Wu Jinhai could see how Wu Jiang was mercilessly beating up two men who were also of the same type as the person he was fighting with.

Yes, judging from their technique when the two men fought with swords, Wu Jinhai could tell that they were also the defensive type. Their sword techniques were not good, and they even found it very difficult even if they only needed to fight with a sword.

The three men wearing black clothes were defensive types, so it was no wonder Wu Jiang could easily tear the skin of the two people apart without giving them any mercy. Even their black clothes had been torn apart by the dancing swords, and the two men could only fall to the ground with blood all over their bodies.

The bodies of the two men were still moving despite being badly injured, and that proved that they were both still alive.

“Enough, Wu Jiang!” Wu Jinhai gave the order, and the sword finally stopped its attack as it titled toward Wu Jinhai as if it were a child tilting its head innocently.

Perhaps if Wu Jiang was indeed a child, an innocent question would escape his lips: “Why did you ask me to stop, Father? Can’t you see that I am playing happily now?”

Wu Jinhai and the sword were connected by a strong bond, and that was why the masked man could understand the meaning behind the sword’s ‘gaze’ even if the sword could not utter a word.

However, the man wearing the golden mask chose to ignore the sword, and he focused his attention on the bald man with the scar on his face again as he said, “You’re not the attacking type, and you don’t even know how to fight with a sword. You were specially sent to this forest just to destroy the barrier, right? You weren’t asked to kill anyone, and your only job was just to break the barrier around the core. Am I right?”

Wu Jinhai carefully analyzed the situation, and he could hear the bald man laughing in the next second.

.....

“I have also heard some rumors that Wu Li’s Prince Wu Jinhai is an intelligent person, and I think the rumors are true,” the bald man replied. “You can easily guess my intentions, Your Highness. And perhaps you will also be able to guess the person who ordered me to make a mess in this forest.”

Hearing his answer, Wu Jinhai smirked behind the golden mask, but of course, the other man wouldn’t be able to see his dangerous grin.

“I can see that you’ve heard a lot of rumors about me, and I can also see that you’re curious about me. I promised you that I would take off my mask if you managed to beat me, but you didn’t want to change into your wolf form to defeat me. How can you win this battle if you don’t fight seriously?” The Prince arrogantly asked the man. “And maybe you’re right that I’ll be able to guess who ordered you, but I think it would be better for you if you told me everything without wasting my time.”

Wu Jinhai had other plans up his sleeves, and that was why he had started provoking the bald man.

“The rules of the Beast Hunting Event don’t let us shapeshift into our wolf form, Your Highness. I don’t dare to break the rules, nor do I need to change shape while fighting you,” the man with a scar on his face replied.

“Is that so?” Wu Jinhai calmly responded. “About the rules...you don’t need to think about it. If I remember correctly, the three of you weren’t even registered as participants in the event because you only entered this forest as Shao Meihui’s guards. Moreover, even Crown Prince Bai Renshu had used his wolf form to defeat the Three-Headed Snake, so it doesn’t matter even if you use your wolf form now.”

The bald man looked slightly dumbfounded when he heard Wu Jinhai’s statement. He had heard that Shao Meihui was killed by the Three-Headed Snake, and when he heard how Wu Jinhai said that Crown Prince Bai Renshu even dared to use his wolf form during the event, it could be said that the Crown Prince was indeed angry because of the death of his lover.

The bald man was silent for a moment, but then he chuckled before saying, “I was not ordered to fight with anyone in this forest, but I have always been interested in you, Your Highness. I really want to know more about your secret, so I will grant your wish.”

Right after he finished speaking, the bald man threw down his sword before turning into a huge wolf with black fur. Wu Jinhai carefully observed the wolf after the transformation, and his focus was on the wolf’s forehead.

‘That man is a black wolf, but he is not from the Black Werewolf Clan,’ Wu Jinhai concluded when he saw nothing on the wolf’s forehead.

Black werewolves were common in the Dong Lang Empire, but not all of them were members of the Black Werewolf Clan. It was said that the members of the White and Black Werewolf Clans had the same traits when they were in wolf form.

The werewolves of the White Werewolf Clan would have white crystals on their foreheads when they were in wolf form, and it was said that the crystals were the source of their spiritual power.

Just as the White Werewolf Clan’s members had white crystals on their foreheads when they were in wolf form, werewolves from the Black Werewolf Clan also had black crystals when they were in wolf form. The crystal was also the source of their spiritual power.

Wu Jinhai also heard that the members of the White and Black Werewolf clans had two crystals in their bodies. One was on their forehead called Power Crystal which was the source of their power, and the other was in their heart which was called Life Crystal. The life crystal was the reason behind the werewolf’s life.

If the Power Crystal was destroyed, then the werewolf would lose their power. And if the Life Crystal was destroyed, then the werewolf would die.

All werewolves possessed Life Crystals, but only those from the White and Black Werewolf Clans possessed Power Crystals which made them stronger than ordinary werewolves.

That was the reason why the Black Werewolf Clan had dared to aim for the throne in Dong Lang for so many years. It was because they assumed that they were as strong as the werewolves of the white clan.

Wu Jinhai knew about all of it, and he was also sure that the black wolf in front of him was not part of the Black Werewolf Clan. At this moment, Wu Jinhai still couldn’t come to any conclusions in his heart.

And while Wu Jinhai was still busy with his thoughts, the black wolf suddenly leaped forward towards him, and the wolf even growled loudly as it got closer to his target.

It turned out that the black wolf’s target was Wu Jinhai’s mask, and the wolf’s claws seemed to be ready to tear off the golden mask. The sharp claws were so close to Wu Jinhai’s mask, but Wu Jinhai casually raised his hand before grabbing the wolf’s foreleg and throwing the wolf aside.

The wolf was flung to the ground mercilessly, and he groaned in pain as his body felt like it was about to burst from the merciless attack.

Wu Jinhai looked extremely vicious as he casually walked toward the wolf and stopped in front of the creature that was still in pain. The wolf was lying on his stomach, and he couldn’t even lift his head even if he noticed that Wu Jinhai’s feet were close to him.

Once again, Wu Jinhai mercilessly raised his right foot before using it to stomp on the wolf’s head, further pressing the wolf to the ground.

“You’re the one who lost now, so you’d better tell me who ordered you to break the barrier. Did Emperor Bai Guowei give you the order?” Wu Jinhai asked a question as he continued to press the wolf’s head to the ground.

The wolf was indeed in a difficult position, but he was still able to laugh after hearing Wu Jinhai’s question. “I will tell you the mastermind, but I want to confirm one thing about you first, Your Highness.”

The black wolf still dared to make a bargain in this situation, and Wu Jinhai’s pair of golden eyes glared dangerously at the head under his feet.

Wu Jinhai emitted a dangerous aura from within his body, but the black wolf did not seem intimidated by him as he continued his speech, “I heard another rumor about you, and please confirm whether it’s true or not. The rumor said that you were poisoned when you were a kid and you are no longer human now. Is the rumor true, Your Highness?”
