Wake Up As Gay Werewolf Prince [BL]

374 NOT-SO-FUNNY JOKE

WHAM!

Wu Jingguo’s fist landed precisely on Yu Ming’s face right after the man in black finished speaking. The Crown Prince panted heavily, showing that he was furious inside but still trying to control himself as he only landed a punch right in Yu Ming’s face.

In this situation, he probably could even use all his power to end the life of the one who made him furious, but it could be said that he was patient enough with only one punch he failed to control.

Who wouldn’t be angry after knowing that someone else had been lying to him all this time? Not only had the other person lied to him, but that person had even deliberately trapped him within the currently extremely dangerous Dong Lang, and that was why Wu Jingguo couldn’t hold back for a moment.

Yu Ming didn’t even have time to dodge, and his nose and mouth were bleeding from Wu Jingguo’s powerful punch.

“BASTARD! WHY ARE YOU PUNCHING ME?!” Yu Ming snapped while using the back of his hand to wipe the blood from his nose. When he looked at his hand, he could see how the red liquid was moving from his nose to his hand, and he once again glared at the one who just gave him the wound.

“You still dare to ask?” Instead of answering, Wu Jingguo barked in return, and he even ground his teeth as he tried to control his anger. “You want to kill me here, and the punch isn’t enough for you! I have to kill you before you get the chance to kill me!”

Wu Jingguo looked angry, and it looked like he really wanted to kill Yu Ming as he once again charged at the man in black and was about to throw another punch at the man, but his fist was caught by the man this time. Yu Ming didn’t even find it difficult when he caught his fist, and now he was squeezing his fist while continuing to glare at the younger man.

“You don’t know how to take a joke, do you?” Calmly, Yu Ming asked a question, and although Wu Jingguo still looked angry, he also looked confused after hearing what the older man had just asked.

.....

“What joke are you talking about?” Wu Jingguo asked back when he didn’t understand the meaning behind Yu Ming’s question.

Taking a deep breath, Yu Ming then let go of Wu Jingguo’s hand roughly. “It seems that your trust in me is even thinner than a single black hair on your head, Your Highness,” faintly, he answered the Crown Prince’s question, and the Crown Prince tried to understand the meaning behind those words.

The reason why Wu Jingguo suddenly punched Yu Ming was that he felt betrayed by the fish demon, but the demon had just talked about trust, and Wu Jingguo looked perplexed.

“Were you just kidding earlier, Yu laoban? You didn’t really want to trap me and His Highness the Crown Prince here, did you?” Finally, Bai Chen decided to intervene in the two men’s dispute, and the two men turned to look at him.

Wu Jingguo even widened his eyes slightly, perhaps only realizing the meaning behind Yu Ming’s words just now after he heard Bai Chen’s question. Meanwhile, Yu Ming only lightly glanced at Bai Chen as if he wasn’t amused even if Bai Chen looked smarter than the Crown Prince.

In the end, Yu Ming didn’t answer Bai Chen’s question, and he only fixed his gaze on the newly repaired barrier where they had walked before.

“I know how His Highness the Crown Prince sent a message to Emperor Wu Shun asking for help, and I know that the Emperor’s army won’t be able to help us if I don’t destroy the barrier to let them in. However, destroying the barrier will pose an even greater danger. Commoners will probably accidentally enter Dong Lang when the situation in Dong Lang is unstable, and more casualties may fall. That’s why I decided to modify a small part of the barrier. The Emperor’s army will be able to break the barrier I just made after we pass through the original barrier. The barrier looks similar to the original barrier but is actually different. Strong cultivators in Wu Li will surely be able to break the barrier I just created.”

Yu Ming had just given such a long explanation, and both Bai Chen and Wu Jingguo immediately turned their gazes toward the newly repaired barrier. It was indeed only a small part of the barrier modified by Yu Ming, and it was only the same size as Yu Ming’s body. However, that size would definitely be enough to pave the way for the Emperor’s army, and both Bai Chen and Wu Jingguo could finally understand Yu Ming’s intentions.

“To be honest, it’s easier to destroy the entire barrier than to absorb a fraction of it like what I’ve done, but the only reward I received after risking my life was a punch to my face. I will always remember this gift,” Yu Ming spoke again in a tone filled with sarcasm, and he even glanced at Wu Jingguo, the man who had just rewarded him with a beating for his hard work.

“You can’t blame me!” Wu Jingguo suddenly tried to defend himself. “You should have said your true intentions instead of being dramatic in front of me! Are you obsessed with being a villain or something? Your joke isn’t funny at all!”

In the end, Wu Jingguo was still someone with high pride, and that was why he was unwilling to admit defeat so easily. Instead, he kept blaming Yu Ming for his not-so-funny joke.

“Now I can understand Xiao Hai’s feelings,” Yu Ming suddenly spoke again, but this time his eyes fell on Bai Chen. “It’s very difficult to gain someone’s trust. Even if we are sincere, some people still doubt us. Maybe it’s in our nature, right?”

Sure enough, Yu Ming talked about how Bai Chen kept doubting Wu Jinhai from time to time, but Bai Chen couldn’t even refute it because that was the truth. The doubt in his heart for Wu Jinhai was like rain. It would come, it would go, and Wu Jinhai surely felt hurt because of that, right?
