Chapter 298 - 298 HE WANTED TO KILL YOU

298 HE WANTED TO KILL YOU

“Only the two of us can break the barrier, Xiao Hai.”

“...”

“I thought it would be best if we could infiltrate Dong Lang as soon as possible, but you want to return to your palace instead. Why are you suddenly being so stubborn, Xiao Hai? Don’t you want to immediately know what’s happening in Dong Lang?”

“...”

Two stallions of different colors galloped side by side on an empty street. Even if one could say the horses were running, their speed was not very fast, and because of that, the man in black was still able to question another figure in red who was riding another horse in black.

Wu Jinhai could hear every question that left Yu Ming’s lips. The two of them had checked the barrier on the border between Dong Lang and Wu Li, and they were certain that the barrier had indeed been set up by demons and not werewolves.

That was the reason why the Emperor’s men couldn’t easily break through the barrier. In fact, the humans rarely had contact with the demons after they managed to defeat the creatures all those years ago, and that was why they didn’t know how the demons set up the barrier, nor did they know how to break it.

But Wu Jinhai and Yu Ming were different. Since the two of them could be certain that the barrier was indeed set up by the demons, they knew how to break it so they could infiltrate Dong Lang immediately.

Yu Ming had said that they should do that immediately, but Wu Jinhai had a different idea in his head, and he said that they should return to Wu Li palace first.

.....

The sun was about to hide behind the horizon once more, and that was why their surroundings had started to grow dim. However, the residual light in the sky was enough to help the two men see everything around them, and that was why they were still able to lead their horses into the palace.

“I promised Bai Chen that I would return today, and that’s why I must return to him first before we can do anything with the barrier,” Wu Jinhai finally replied to the older man after he ignored the man for a while.

Yu Ming just rolled his eyes when he heard Wu Jinhai’s words. “You have changed a lot, Xiao Hai,” he commented lazily. “Since when did you start caring about promises and whatnot? In the past, you always said that promises were made to be broken, but now you insist on keeping your promises. How ridiculous.”

“…” Wu Jinhai once again ignored Yu Ming’s comment even if it was full of mockery that was directed at him.

Perhaps Yu Ming sounded very confident when he said that Wu Jinhai had changed a lot, but Wu Jinhai knew that only he could judge himself, and only he knew himself best.

Whether he had changed or not, only he knew, and that was why he didn’t feel the need to reply to Yu Ming’s comments.

The face under the golden mask didn’t show any expression at the moment, and if one could see the faint expression on it, then it would be a hint of panic etched on his handsome face.

Ever since he and Yu Ming were still at the boundary between Dong Lang and Wu Li, he kept having a bad feeling in his heart, thinking that something bad was about to happen, and that was why he felt uneasy to the point he even ignored Yu Ming earlier.

He didn’t even know what bad things would happen to him, but somehow he felt that he should return to his palace soon, and that was why he immediately rejected Yu Ming’s idea of quickly breaking the barrier so they could infiltrate Dong Lang as quickly as possible.

He didn’t even express how anxious he was in front of the older man, and all he did was say that they should return to the palace immediately, but he didn’t say any reason until he finally said that he had promised Bai Chen to return to the palace today.

He had indeed made a promise to Bai Chen, but was it really necessary for him to keep that promise? Perhaps Yu Ming was right that he actually didn’t need to keep his word, but Wu Jinhai rejected the idea as his head could only think of one thing at the moment.

As Wu Jinhai felt more anxious, he brought his black horse galloping faster that which ended up leaving Yu Ming’s brown horse behind, and Yu Ming even frowned in confusion as he followed the younger man from behind.

When the sky completely lost its light, the two stallions finally arrived at the Xinyang Imperial Palace, and Wu Jinhai immediately directed the black horse toward his palace.

Arriving in front of Jing Jing Liutang, Wu Jinhai quickly jumped off the dark horse before carrying his long legs to enter one of the pavilions. Yu Ming had also arrived in front of the palace, but he could only frown once again as he witnessed the young man’s strange behavior.

But, Wu Jinhai ignored Yu Ming as he suddenly opened the pavilion door, and he immediately brought his eyes to scan his surroundings. “Where are you, Bai Chen? I’m home, but you don’t want to welcome me?”

“...”

The man in red didn’t get an answer even after he asked the question. The inside of the pavilion was quiet, and when Wu Jinhai directed his feet toward the bed there before using his hands to touch the surface, he no longer felt any warmth there.

Behind his golden mask, his face was colored with even more anxiety. Bai Chen had left his pavilion for a while now.

That was the conclusion he had made in his head after feeling the chilly sensation on the bed, and perhaps it was the reason behind the uneasiness he had been feeling since he was still outside the palace.

And just as he looked dazed as he continued to stare at the cold bed, someone suddenly broke the silence within the pavilion, and his body immediately stiffened.

“Prince Bai Chen left this pavilion a few hours ago, and he said he wanted to kill you, gege.”
