Chapter 384 - 384 THE ONE HE TRUSTS
384 THE ONE HE TRUSTS
Inside his head, someone was laughing, but the voice didn’t sound mechanical just like the system that usually interacted with him in his head. Instead, the voice sounded more ‘human,’ and Bai Chen knew the owner of the voice even if he didn’t see the figure at the moment.
“So, you want to borrow my power now, Bai Chen? Are you sure you will be able to receive my tremendous power?”
After laughing, Bai Chen heard the question, and he almost rolled his eyes lazily when he heard how Bai Lang sounded so arrogant in his head. Sure enough, the little wolf didn’t immediately appear in front of Bai Chen, and it only stayed in Bai Chen’s mind this time.
What was happening right now was different from when Bai Lang suddenly stopped time when they were facing Shao Yang. At that time, Bai Lang even appeared in front of Bai Chen even if Bai Chen didn’t call the little wolf, but today Bai Lang didn’t even want to appear even if Bai Chen tried to communicate with it.
It was indeed Bai Chen who was purposely trying to summon Bai Lang because he did need the wolf’s help right now, and that was why he stopped himself from rolling his eyes as he tried not to offend the little wolf.
After all, he knew that he could only rely on Bai Lang at this time. Shao Yaoting had become the strongest werewolf thanks to Bai Guowei’s Power Crystal, and he was definitely invincible now. Bai Chen’s situation was not very optimistic, but he remembered how Bai Lang was also powerful and even had control over the world, and that was why he could only come to Bai Lang’s feet for help now.
‘I’m confident that I will be able to accept your power, Bai Lang. Maybe I’m useless, but my body isn’t that weak. I could even accept Bai Renshu’s power in my body and could kill Shao Yang with that power, right? That’s why you shouldn’t underestimate me, Bai Lang.’
Bai Chen could feel proud of himself because he managed to accept Bai Renshu’s power before he entered Dong Lang with Yu Ming and Wu Jingguo. Bai Renshu was a Beta, and that man was much stronger than him, but he was able to deal with everything well against Shao Yang. Thus, Bai Chen was confident that he would be able to accept Bai Lang’s power, but then the little wolf laughed again as if it had just heard something funny.
“My power is incomparable to Bai Renshu, Bai Chen. You should use your brain more carefully, and you can also stop thinking so highly of yourself. You will regret it if you overestimate yourself.”
.....
Bai Chen didn’t answer right away, but he couldn’t help but think that it was Bai Lang who continued to act so full of himself, so why would he be the one being scolded? He wanted to say that, but perhaps their discussion wouldn’t end immediately if he did, right?
Bai Chen was quite irritated, but he chose not to offend the little wolf as he replied, ‘It is indeed reckless for me to compare you to Bai Renshu, Bai Lang. I believe you are much stronger than Bai Renshu, and that is why I need your help now.’
The only thing Bai Chen could think about at the moment was how he could defeat Shao Yaoting. Bai Lang didn’t use its power to stop time, which was why Shao Yaoting would be able to launch an attack at any time. So, Bai Chen just wanted to receive Bai Lang’s power as soon as possible, but it seemed that Bai Lang was deliberately wasting his time.
“Alright, Bai Chen. I’ll lend you my power, but I have to tell you that the process will be different from when you borrowed Bai Renshu’s power,” Bai Lang finally gave Bai Chen the go-ahead, but the “but” in mid-sentence was enough to make Bai Chen frowned.
‘What difference are you talking about, Bai Lang? Is the process different because your power is stronger than Bai Renshu?’ Bai Chen asked again.
“You can say that,” replied the little white wolf. “The process will be different because you won’t be able to stay conscious once I let you borrow my power, Bai Chen. Do you still want to borrow my power?”
This time, Bai Chen did not immediately respond, and he took time to digest what Bai Lang meant by saying that he would not remain conscious when he borrowed the power of the wolf.
‘You mean you will take over my body when I borrow your power, Bai Lang?’ Trying his luck, Bai Chen made a random guess.
It was indeed just a random guess as Bai Chen’s brain was usually sluggish and dull, but then he could hear how Bai Lang chuckled in his head after hearing his question. “You’re getting smarter, Bai Chen,” the little wolf answered. “Once I let you borrow my power, I will pull your soul into your subconscious, and that’s why you won’t be able to control your body during battle. However, you can still see what happens in this place when I use your body. You just need to wait until I finish dealing with the little ant.”
It turned out that Bai Chen had guessed it accurately, but then he once again took his time to consider it carefully. His body was going to be taken by Bai Lang so his body would be able to fight against Shao Yaoting, and it sounded a little scary when he imagined how he might lose his body forever if Bai Lang betrayed him.
But, wasn’t Bai Lang on the same side as him? The white wolf had been with him for many years, even when he was in his previous life, Bai Lang was also with him. When he doubted Wu Jinhai, he still trusted Bai Lang, and that was why it really wasn’t the time to doubt the little wolf’s sincerity towards him, right?
‘I believe in you, Bai Lang,’ Bai Chen finally decided. ‘You can use my body, and I will remain in my subconscious while I wait for you to kill Shao Yaoting. You will be able to do it, right?’
