At most, he would only break a few bones in his body, but he was sure that as a werewolf, he would not die so easily.

He was positive, and he thought Wu Jinhai would think positively too. That was why Bai Chen didn’t expect the man in red to immediately run towards him and catch him the moment he fell.

Yes, Wu Jinhai did catch Bai Chen, and now Bai Chen was like a bride in the groom’s arms. He did fall from a height of more than ten feet, but he fell right into Wu Jinhai’s arms, and the man was princess-carrying him now.

‘Wait. I’m not a girl, but I thought I was a bride? And I’m a Prince, but I thought that Wu Jinhai was holding me like a Princess?’ Bai Chen still had time to wonder in his heart as he looked at the pair of eyes that were also looking back at him.

His body was still in Wu Jinhai’s arms now, and that was why the distance between them was so close. Bai Chen was finally able to stare at the pair of eyes peeking through the holes of the mask, and he thought that the color of the eyes looked brownish, not black.

Apart from being able to see the color of the eyes better, Bai Chen could also sense the man’s somewhat erratic heartbeat, and he had a wild guess that Wu Jinhai was nervous right now.

He just didn’t know the reason behind the nervousness. Wu Jinhai was a calm man, and he didn’t even flinch when he saw the beast, but now Bai Chen could feel the man’s rapid heartbeat.

‘Maybe he was nervous because I almost fell to the ground and almost hurt myself,’ thought Bai Chen. ‘However, if I think about it, he didn’t even look worried when the disciples of the Sacred Leaf Sect fell from the same height,’ he then corrected himself upon realizing the situation.

.....

“Are you okay? Can you stand up now? I didn’t expect you to be this heavy because you look thin from the outside.”

Bai Chen gasped when he heard Wu Jinhai’s question. He just realized that he was still in Wu Jinhai’s arms, and that was why he immediately jumped down from the man’s embrace as he got back on his feet again.

“Sorry,” The Werewolf Prince sheepishly apologized as he tightened his grip on his sword.

The sword was indeed still in his right hand even after he fell from the height, and he was grateful that he did not accidentally injure Wu Jinhai with it.

Bai Chen was grateful, but then he remembered something as he questioned Wu Jinhai, “Why did you catch me when I fell from the cobweb? You didn’t even want to catch the disciples from the Sacred Leaf Sect, but you ran so fast towards me when you saw that I was about to fall.”

Perhaps Bai Chen looked ungrateful for questioning the man who had saved him. He should have thanked the man, but instead, he questioned him.

And the person who received the question didn’t answer immediately, so Bai Chen thought that it might be his fault to ask the man in this situation.

He was about to open his lips to speak, but the taller man was faster than him.

“Do you think you are the same as these disciples from the Sacred Leaf Sect?” Wu Jinhai asked back as he glanced at the disciples who were still unconscious on the ground. “They may be young, but they are trained in the sect. Falling from that height wouldn’t be a problem for them, but it would be different for you who didn’t even receive proper training before coming to this forest.”

Bai Chen gasped when he heard Wu Jinhai’s statement. The man was right about how he was different from the disciples of the Sacred Leaf Sect, but Bai Chen disagreed about how he didn’t even receive proper training before coming to the forest.

Ma Qiao had specially hired Feng Qingshan to be his personal trainer two weeks before the event in the Forbidden Forest, and even if the training period was short, Bai Chen still thought that he had received training from a professional.

That was why he furrowed his brows as he continued to stare at the black-haired man. “Even if I am indeed weak, you can’t just look down on me because I’m still the Werewolf Prince of Dong Lang,” trying to save his pride, Bai Chen decided to argue. “And you’re wrong if you think that I didn’t receive proper training before coming to this forest. I was trained by a Sentinel before coming to this forest, and even if I still don’t know how to fight, I’m confident in my physical endurance.”

Bai Chen remembered how Feng Qingshan had focused on physical training in the last two weeks. Even if there were times when he questioned the man’s methods of training him, now that he had nearly fallen from a height and broken his bones, he assumed that physical training might be able to save his body from being crushed.

The arrogant Sentinel kept asking him to run and even do push-ups, so Bai Chen was sure that his body wasn’t too weak now. He even believed that his body was more muscular now, and even his cute belly was a little tighter now.

That was why he dared to challenge Wu Jinhai after seeing how the masked man underestimated his physical condition. Too bad he still couldn’t see the man’s expression.

“Is that so?” Wu Jinhai asked back, but it seemed he was mocking Bai Chen. “Receiving training from a Sentinel is great, but I don’t think you’ve learned enough from that guy. These disciples have been training in their sect for over three years, but I presume you have only started your training in less than a month. Am I right?”

Bai Chen gritted his teeth. Wu Jinhai guessed that he started his training in less than a month, but it wasn’t very accurate because he only started his training two weeks ago.

Turning his gaze from Wu Jinhai to the disciples on the ground, Bai Chen secretly admitted that he indeed couldn’t be compared to them. They had trained for many years, so naturally, they were physically stronger than him. Now Bai Chen didn’t argue anymore as he could only sigh heavily.

Wu Jinhai noticed how Bai Chen had finally relented, and he secretly smiled behind the golden mask. “It’s been more than ten minutes, and I’m afraid this giant spider will wake up if you don’t slash it down with your sword soon,” he said.

Hearing the possibility of the giant spider waking up, Bai Chen widened his eyes as he immediately dashed behind Wu Jinhai while hiding himself behind the man’s back.

“Do you think the giant spider will wake up soon? I think we should go now instead of making trouble with the beast,” holding Wu Jinhai’s sleeve with his left hand, Bai Chen timidly peeked at the beast that was still frozen on its spot.

Wu Jinhai burst out laughing after hearing the shorter man’s question. Without turning to look at the person, he replied, “I don’t know when it will wake up, but if we just leave it here, then it will endanger these disciples again, and that means your hard work will be in vain. It’s better if you slash it with your sword.”

“It’s still me who has to do that?” Bai Chen squeaked when he heard how Wu Jinhai kept saying that he was the one who had to kill the spider.

Even if Bai Chen knew that what Wu Jinhai had just said made sense, he was still afraid to swing his sword at the giant beast. He didn’t even dare to use a knife on a chicken in his previous life, so it was still difficult for him to use his sword on the beast.

This time, Wu Jinhai looked back at the shorter man, and without saying anything, he suddenly pulled Bai Chen’s body so that their positions were reversed now.

Bai Chen screamed when he realized that he was standing in front of Wu Jinhai now, but then he swallowed his scream when he felt how Wu Jinhai’s two hands were enveloping the hand that was holding the sword.

Not only that, but he could also feel the taller man positioning his head beside him as he heard the man whisper, “Don’t worry. We can kill this beast together.”

And Wu Jinhai immediately guided Bai Chen’s hand to move toward the spider and used the sword to slash the spider’s head mercilessly.
