Chapter 407 - 407 BE BY YOUR SIDE

407 BE BY YOUR SIDE

“What did you just say, Bai Lang? You have died, and you are like a ghost now, but you still have a Power Crystal and even want to give it to me?” Bai Chen was shocked when he heard Bai Lang’s question, but he still managed to speak a reply even if it was a series of questions that just escaped his lips.

It was tempting if he could get a new Power Crystal so that people wouldn’t look down on him anymore, but he still didn’t know how Bai Lang was going to give him the crystal. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Don’t underestimate me, Bai Chen,” Bai Lang replied. “I was immortal before I died many years ago, and my death is not ordinary. That’s why I still have the crystal in my body. If I didn’t have the crystal anymore, then I wouldn’t be able to use my power to beat that bastard Shao, and I wouldn’t be able to fight those high-level beasts either.”

Bai Lang had a point, and that was why Bai Chen didn’t immediately respond to his words.

However, when Bai Chen realized something else related to the Power Crystal, he finally replied, “I heard how we can’t easily take other werewolves’ Power Crystals because those crystals might not be compatible with our bodies, so I can’t accept your crystal even if I do need it. Besides, I have actually found my Power Crystal, and that’s why I must not take yours, Bai Lang.”

Bai Chen reasoned, but Bai Lang smirked after hearing that. “Indeed, you can’t easily accept other werewolves’ Power Crystals, but mine is not the same. It can adapt to the body of any werewolf, and that’s why you don’t have to worry about the possibility of it not being compatible with your body. And you just said about your Power Crystal, right? You acknowledge your Power Crystal as your son now, and that’s why I don’t think you will kill your son to get the crystal back into your body.”

“...” Bai Chen did not answer this time.

When Bai Lang mentioned how he now recognized the Power Crystal as his son, the Immortal Elder wasn’t wrong. His Power Crystal was none other than the special sword Wu Jiang now, and it could be said that it had a consciousness of its own after Wu Jinhai turned it into a weapon.

That was why Bai Lang was right that it would be like killing his son if he insisted on taking the Power Crystal back into his body.

.....

“Let’s say it will be okay for me if I take your Power Crystal. Then, what will happen to you after you lose the crystal, Bai Lang?” Instead of arguing with the Immortal Elder, Bai Chen chose to inquire about what would happen to Bai Lang after he gave him the crystal.

“Nothing special will happen to me,” Bai Lang replied casually. “As you said before, I have died, and now I am no different from a ghost. As long as I don’t have to fight anyone, it doesn’t matter even if I don’t have the crystal anymore. Moreover, if you have the crystal, you will be the one who has to fight the bad guys if one day they reappear.”

Bai Lang looked very calm as he explained, but Bai Chen furrowed his brows after hearing it. “Are you still going to be a ghost after this, Bai Lang? Will you still be by my side after you hand over your Power Crystal?”

This time, Bai Lang did not directly answer Bai Chen’s question. He somehow seemed a little taken aback by the question, but then he smiled widely before replying, “I didn’t expect you to want to have me by your side forever, Bai Chen. I thought you hated me and wanted to get rid of me as soon as possible.”

A hint of sarcasm was evident in Bai Lang’s words, and Bai Chen couldn’t even refute what he had just heard. Before Bai Chen learned the truth about Bai Lang, he was indeed irritated by the creature he knew as the annoying little white wolf, and he also had to admit that sometimes he did want to get rid of the wolf as soon as possible.

But maybe he felt that way only when he was irritated by how Bai Lang was often annoying him, but it couldn’t be said that he hated the little white wolf. And after discovering the truth about the little white wolf, how could he hate the wolf?

“I apologize for my disrespectful behavior from the first day you pulled me back into this world, Bai Lang,” Bai Chen rarely apologized, but he sounded sincere when he said one to Bai Lang.

Bai Lang even looked taken aback, but then he chuckled before asking, “You’re suddenly being so polite to me just because you now know that I’m the Immortal Elder, right?”

“...” Bai Chen did not answer. Deep down, he knew that Bai Lang was right, and that was why he couldn’t even rebuke what the Immortal Elder had just said.

And Bai Lang looked like he knew that he had made an accurate guess, and that was why he smirked before saying, “Don’t talk about how you feel guilty about your past behavior, and let’s talk about your decision. Will you accept my Power Crystal or not?”

For some reason, Bai Chen thought that Bai Lang really wanted to give him his Power Crystal, and strangely he also thought that Bai Lang looked like he was in a hurry. But, why did Bai Lang suddenly look like he was in a rush?

Just like the first time he met Bai Lang after he returned to this world, Bai Chen still couldn’t understand the mysterious figure, and that was why he couldn’t even directly answer the question.

However, after thinking for a moment, Bai Chen finally replied, “Would you be fine without the Power Crystal, Bai Lang?”

Bai Chen sounded worried when he voiced the question, but Bai Lang calmly smiled before replying, “You don’t need to worry because I will be fine without the Power Crystal, Bai Chen. I will still be by your side after giving you the Power Crystal, and now I only wait for your decision. You will accept my Power Crystal, right?”
