Wake Up As Gay Werewolf Prince [BL]

Chapter 105

105 NOT CATCH THEM, BUT CATCH YOU

Even if the spider was huge, Bai Chen noticed that the eight-legged beast was moving quite fast, and he expected that the beast would attack him in no time.

But, even after he closed his eyes for a few minutes, he didn’t feel anything with his body, and he could also breathe oxygen freely. Feeling that there was nothing happened to his body, Bai Chen finally opened his eyes again only to see how the giant spider froze in front of him.

His pair of blue eyes widened when he saw how the spider didn’t move, and the beast even stopped letting out a deep growl from its mouth. Ah, even the spider’s mouth was still gaping as if it was still preparing to attack him, and Bai Chen frowned in confusion.

He thought the time had stopped ticking, but when he found out that he could still move his body, and even the leaves on the trees around him could still shift when the air moved around them, he knew that only the spider had stopped moving, while the time continued ticking.

The spider was still hovering above his head, but it didn’t budge at all. It seemed like the beast was frozen, but Bai Chen didn’t even see the layer of ice covering it.

Bai Chen’s body was still shaking, and even his palms were still sweaty, but he then moved his sword closer to the spider and touched the tip of the sword on the beast’s legs. However, the giant spider still didn’t react.

Bai Chen had no idea what had happened to the spider, so he dazedly looked back at where Wu Jinhai had previously been hiding behind a tree, but he was surprised that he didn’t find anyone hiding behind the large trunk.

The masked man was standing not far from him now, and that shocked him.

The Werewolf Prince looked at the masked man, but unfortunately, he was one second late to notice how the man’s eyes quickly turned from bright golden into a pair of dark eyes.

.....

“W-what happened to that beast? Why did it suddenly stop moving? It was about to attack me earlier, but it suddenly stopped!” Bai Chen was like a child as he recited what had just happened to him, and his blue eyes even widened with fear mixed with excitement.

“Why are you asking me that?” Instead of answering, Wu Jinhai asked back. “You were the one fighting the beast, so you should be the one to know why the beast suddenly froze in place before it could launch an attack on you.”

Wu Jinhai did not give him a satisfactory answer, and Bai Chen once again looked at the giant spider that was still hovering above him. He had just realized that he was still very close to the beast, and that was why he immediately jumped off the beast and chose to stand next to Wu Jinhai instead.

“I didn’t do anything to it!” Bai Chen argued. “I couldn’t even swing my sword before, so there’s no way the spider would suddenly freeze because of me.”

Hearing the argument from the shorter man, Wu Jinhai just shrugged. “Perhaps you subconsciously used your inner powers to freeze the beast,” he replied. “I think the spider is just frozen now, but it’s still alive. You’d better use this opportunity to save the disciples.”

Wu Jinhai seemed to be speaking nonsense in Bai Chen’s ears, and he couldn’t believe what the man had just said. Even if he wasn’t very smart, he knew that he was just a weak and useless werewolf, so it was impossible for him to use something like inner powers as the masked man said.

Bai Chen was still wondering about what had happened to the giant spider, but he knew that Wu Jinhai had a point. The spider was frozen now, so he had better use the opportunity to save the disciples.

Nodding his head, Bai Chen then brought his feet towards the newly created cobweb that the spider used to stick the disciples from the Sacred Leaf Sect. He craned his neck to see how the human cocoons were placed more than ten feet above the ground.

If he wanted to save the humans, then he would have to climb the cobweb, but he wasn’t sure if it was safe for him to climb it.

“You will be fine climbing the cobweb,” as if he could read Bai Chen’s worries, Wu Jinhai encouraged from behind him.

Bai Chen secretly agreed with the man’s words. Even a large and heavy spider could climb the cobweb safely, so he assumed that the cobweb was strong enough to hold his weight.

Taking a deep breath, Bai Chen then used his hands and feet to carefully climb up the cobweb. The sword was still in his right hand, so he couldn’t climb up the cobweb easily.

He also wasn’t very confident when it came to high places, so his heart felt like it was going to explode as he continued to climb the cobweb.

Eventually, he managed to reach one of the human cocoons, and he would slash his sword at it if he didn’t remember something.

Looking down at Wu Jinhai, he then shouted, “These humans will fall to the ground after I slash their cocoons, right? I think you better stay under me so you can catch them!”

The words ‘stay under me’ sounded ambiguous, but Bai Chen didn’t care about that as he continued to stare at the masked man.

Seeing how the man was properly dressed, Bai Chen guessed that the man was not a dirty-minded person. That man was not the same as Zhu Ge who liked to show off his body.

‘Wait. Why am I thinking about that perverted bastard at a time like this?’ Bai Chen scolded himself when he realized that it was strange to think of Zhu Ge when he was in danger.

Meanwhile, Wu Jinhai sighed after hearing Bai Chen’s words. “Why should I catch them? I know that they are just young disciples of the Sacred Leaf Sect who can’t even fight the stupid spider, but they won’t die if they fall from a height of ten feet. What’s more, the ground below you is covered in thick grass, so they surely won’t die.”

Bai Chen shouldn’t have expected Wu Jinhai to agree to his request, but he still set his sights on the area below him. Wu Jinhai was right, the area was covered by dense grass, so he thought it wouldn’t hurt too much if the disciples fell on it.

With that in mind, Bai Chen finally used his sword to slash at one of the cocoons. He didn’t want to hurt the human inside, so he did so carefully with the sword in his hand.

And it was like a magic show after the sword slashes the cocoon. Bai Chen could see how the cocoon was starting to break away from the human, letting the human fall free on the grass.

Bai Chen could see that the human who had just fallen to the ground closed his eyes, but Wu Jinhai said that the human had just fainted, so he continued to work on another cocoon in the cobweb.

Finally, all of the Sacred Leaf Sect disciples were free from the cocoons, and they were now ‘sleeping’ on the ground. Bai Chen was able to heave a sigh of relief after he managed to save the humans.

When he was in his previous life, he never wanted to act like a hero, but he thought that something forced him to act like a hero in this world. In the end, he even risked his life to save strangers, and he felt that he had changed a lot since he transmigrated to this world.

Bai Chen shook his head as he tried to shake off any unnecessary thoughts, and then he decided to return to the ground since he had already finished his work on the cobweb.

Just like how he found it difficult when he walked down from the forest to the river more than two weeks ago, he also found it more difficult to descend the cobweb compared to what he had done back then.

The sword in his right hand didn’t make it easier, but he knew that he couldn’t just throw it to the ground because it was special.

In the end, Bai Chen still gripped the sword tightly as he continued to move downwards, but then his right foot failed to step on the cobweb, and his hand also couldn’t grab the cobweb in time.

He had a déjà vu feeling like when he nearly fell off the bridge earlier today, and maybe he’d actually fall this time because his hand couldn’t reach the cobweb at all.

Bai Chen closed his eyes as he fell freely from the cobweb, but instead of feeling the hard ground surface, he felt warmth around his body after falling from the cobweb.

When he opened his eyes, he could see that he was in Wu Jinhai’s arms.
