Wake Up As Gay Werewolf Prince [BL]

Chapter 230

230 HER FLUTE, HER SONG

He was still standing by the river. His pair of blue eyes were open, but they looked empty. Even though his body didn’t show any movement, sweat was starting to form on his forehead. Even his eyes started to have tears running down his cheeks, but he didn’t even use his hands to wipe them.

More than ten feet behind him, a woman with purple hair continued to play her flute to produce a melody, and she would sing too from time to time. The lyrics were still the same. She still sang a song about how people were afraid of their past, and she challenged those people to face their past to see if those people would be able to overcome their fear or not.

It was also the woman who caused Bai Chen to suffer in misery right after her melody pierced the young man’s ears. The woman even smirked as her spell began to work on the man in white, and she could feel a large amount of energy rushing through her body after she managed to get a victim in her hands.

That was how it worked. Every time she managed to get a victim under her spell, she would absorb their fear, and that fear was the source of the energy that kept her alive for years.

Fear was like her food, and that was why she wandered around the world every day just to fill her body with energy to keep her alive. And today she was quite lucky when she managed to get an easy target under her spell.

She remembered that she also targeted the man a month ago when the man was also in the forest, but she failed to do anything to the man because someone was protecting him. But today she saw no one with the brown-haired man, and that was why she could easily cast her spell on the young man.

She couldn’t see the man’s expression because she was standing more than ten feet behind the man, but she was sure the man was suffering from his bad memory, and that was evident from how much energy she could absorb once the spell started working on the man.

She was overjoyed by the large amount of energy that entered her body, and she also focused on playing her flute and singing from time to time, and that was why she failed to notice the presence of another person in the area.

Someone had just arrived at the river bank, and that person was walking quietly behind the purple-haired woman. In his right hand was a dagger, and after he arrived right behind the woman wearing a purple dress, he calmly used the dagger to slash at the woman’s neck. And in no time, the melody and singing stopped as the woman fell to the ground covered in countless pebbles.

.....

It was the man who had just slashed the woman’s neck, and he coldly turned his eyes to observe the woman’s state, and when he could see how red blood was flowing from the neck while the woman’s eyes kept opening and could not be closed again, he knew that the woman had died.

His eyes then shifted slightly towards the flute in the woman’s hand, and without showing any mercy, he used his feet to crush the hand and the bamboo flute. In the end, the flute broke into pieces, and even the woman’s hand received the same ending.

After he was done with the woman, the corner of his eye could see movement not far away from him, and he immediately dashed towards the person who was about to fall to the ground if he didn’t catch the person in time before the person’s back hit the hard ground.

It was Bai Chen who almost fell to the ground when the spell stopped running on his body, and the Werewolf Prince was now in the man’s arms. When the man saw Bai Chen’s expression, he could see how his face was still pale, and even his pair of blue eyes still looked empty.

“It’s over now, and you don’t have to fear your dark past anymore,” the man whispered as he continued to hold onto Bai Chen’s body. “Can you hear me? Please wake up if you can hear me!”

It was an order that came from the man, and as if he could hear the command, Bai Chen’s blue eyes finally blinked. The pair of eyes no longer looked empty, but it seemed the owner was still trying to understand what had just happened to him.

And then he saw the man who was still holding him, and he hastily released himself from the man’s grasp before taking a step back to keep some distance between himself and the man.

“What are you doing here? And what have you done to me?” Frowning while on guard, Bai Chen questioned the man, and it was clear he suspected the man.

He did suspect the man, but it was not because he didn’t know who the man was. In fact, Bai Chen knew the man very well, and that was why he was on guard when the man was near him now.

“I didn’t do anything to you. It was the Flute Demon trapping you in her spell,” the man replied calmly, and he even moved his chin towards the corpse of the purple-haired woman lying not far from where they were.

Bai Chen’s blue eyes followed the direction, and his body jolted when he saw the dead woman lying on the ground. He could even see the broken flute in the woman’s hand, and he assumed that the man standing in front of him was telling the truth.

Nonetheless, Bai Chen still didn’t feel safe after learning the truth, and that was why he turned his gaze to look at the man again as he asked, “Then, what are you doing here? Don’t tell me it’s you who saved me from the Flute Demon’s spell, Yu laoban?”
