368 THE SAME BLUE WHIRLWIND
“STOP!” Bai Chen suddenly shouted, and his loud voice was enough to stop Wu Jingguo from launching another punch at Shao Yang.
Everything had returned to normal again. Time continued ticking for everyone, and that was why even Wu Jingguo could continue swinging his fist at the old man.
But upon hearing Bai Chen’s scream, the Crown Prince’s fist floated in the air, and with an obvious annoyance on his face, he turned his head and glared at the person who had stopped his movements.
“Why did you stop me, Prince Bai Chen? Were you happy when this bastard said something bad about your lover? What kind of lover are you?” That was the reason behind Wu Jingguo’s anger, and even if he jumped at Yu Ming’s side once again, his sharp gaze was still directed toward Bai Chen who was still on the horse’s back.
Wu Jingguo was indeed furious after hearing how Shao Yang spoke ill of his brother, and Bai Chen also felt the same way. However, his face was calmer than Wu Jingguo’s as he finally jumped down from the white horse.
“Just step aside, Your Highness. I will be the one to take Shao Yang’s life today,” Bai Chen replied when his feet had peacefully landed on the ground.
The arrogance in Bai Chen’s voice was evident, and perhaps it worked to irritate Wu Jingguo as he loudly booed the Werewolf Prince. “You?” He asked mockingly. “You’re going to be the one to take that bastard’s life today? How are you going to do it, Prince Bai Chen? I’ve lived in this world for many years, but never once did I hear any news about you fighting someone. I’m not even sure if you have the combat ability.”
Bai Chen indeed lacked combat ability. He was only a low-level werewolf because his mother was human, and how he accidentally lost his Power Crystal didn’t make the situation any better.
People looked down on him, and Bai Chen knew about it. He should have taken back his Power Crystal instead of letting it stay in Wu Jiang’s hilt, but he didn’t. Did he regret it? The answer is no. He wasn’t greedy for power, and even if he sometimes felt too weak and useless, he didn’t plan to take back the Power Crystal. No. He didn’t plan to kill his and Wu Jinhai’s son just because of power.
.....
At this time, he once again met someone who looked down on him, but Bai Chen didn’t say anything. Even if he didn’t have a Power Crystal in his body, he had just received another power from Bai Lang, and that was why he confidently looked at Wu Jingguo without rebuking the man.
It seemed that Wu Jingguo was once again offended, but this time it was caused by the arrogance in Bai Chen’s eyes. He was about to say something again to attack Bai Chen, but someone grabbed his wrist to stop him from doing that, and when he turned his head to the side, he could see that it was Yu Ming who was holding his wrist.
Yu Ming did hold his wrist firmly, but his eyes were fixated on Bai Chen, and Wu Jingguo somehow couldn’t read the meaning behind the older man’s gaze.
“Let’s step aside and watch the battle between Prince Bai Chen and that bastard Shao, Your Highness,” Yu Ming said, and Wu Jingguo looked shocked after hearing what the fish demon had just said.
“What?” The Crown Prince asked in surprise. “How could you let Prince Bai Chen fight that bastard Shao? My brother told you to protect Prince Bai Chen, right? What if he ends up dead?”
Wu Jingguo might look similar to Wu Jinhai in some aspects, but Yu Ming could tell the two apart. He knew that Wu Jingguo was really loud sometimes, and that one personality often irritated him.
Instead of answering Wu Jingguo’s question, Yu Ming grabbed the younger man’s wrist before leading the two of them to jump onto a nearby tree branch. Wu Jingguo was of course shocked by what Yu Ming had just done, and he also tried to escape from Yu Ming’s grip.
Unfortunately, Yu Ming didn’t plan to let go, and instead, he remained silent as he continued to stare at Bai Chen. ‘Maybe this stupid Wu Jingguo can’t sense it, but I see a different aura from Prince Bai Chen,’ he wondered to himself as he continued to stare at the Werewolf Prince who was still standing on the ground. ‘For some reason, his current aura resembles… Crown Prince Bai Renshu. But, how can he have Bai Renshu’s aura now?’
Yu Ming was curious inside. He had met Bai Renshu before, and since they were both of the short-tempered types, the two of them fought once even if it couldn’t be said to be a serious fight. Back then, Yu Ming could feel Bai Renshu’s combat aura, and he somehow felt the same aura when he was not far from Bai Chen.
Yu Ming was confused, but then Bai Chen suddenly glanced at him who was still standing on a tree branch, and to his surprise, the Werewolf Prince smirked at him. It wasn’t the smirk that surprised Yu Ming, but it was the image he had just seen that had shocked him. For a moment, Yu Ming looked like he was looking at Bai Renshu and not Bai Chen, and that was why his body froze when his eyes suddenly gave off such an illusion.
But, was it just an illusion? At this moment, Yu Ming could see how a blue light began to envelop Bai Chen’s figure, and gradually, the light turned into a whirlwind that protected Bai Chen’s body without harming the Werewolf Prince.
Yu Ming knew that the Blue Whirlwind was Bai Renshu’s most dangerous technique, but that man could only create the whirlwind when he was in wolf form. Currently, Bai Chen was still in his human form, but he could generate the same whirlwind, and that was why Yu Ming was stunned.
‘This is indeed Bai Renshu’s Blue Whirlwind, but I thought it had… leveled up? What’s going on here?’
