Wang Tong nodded in agreement. He had felt that Lie Jian had cared only about himself and his family even before the war broke out.
”Haha, can I be your adviser? If we work together, the Battle Wolf can be as great as the Divine Master sect.” Wang Tong winked at Guan Dongyang.
”Awesome! I will help you quell Ye Zi's suspicion then. By the way, Ye Zi is a very nice girl. Not interested?”
Wang Tong paused for a second and then shook his head. ”No. ”
”Come on, Wang Tong! We have fought wars together. You can tell me anything. I am not going to ask you how you have survived the five years because we all have to look forward. Don't overthink your past. Only God knows if we can still see the sunrise from the east tomorrow anyways.” Guan Dongyang consoled Wang Tong, hoping he would be able to come to terms with what had happened.
Wang Tong rolled his eyes and then said, ”Tell me what to do after you have learned how to handle Lie Xuan.”
Although Guan Dongyang's words were lighthearted banter, they were not unfounded. He had noticed Ye Zi's eyes shift to Wang Tong more often than being a coincidence, so he suspected that this talented medic had fallen for Wang Tong.
Guan Dongyang watched as Wang Tong sauntered away, then shook his head as he was absorbed in reflections of the old time. Ever since Wang Tong entered the semi-finals of the grand tournament, Guan Dongyang had a nagging feeling that he was going to have a standoff against Patroclus, and he was right.
He still remembered that epic battle between the perfect human and the heir of the Blade Warrior. A powerful man was able to attract women naturally, but Wang Tong was more than just powerful; he was one of a kind, and his return marked the beginning of a new era.
”Lie Xuan, I think we are done here. Boss needs our help, so what will be your call?” Lie Wushuang asked.
Lie Xuan had never thought that the decision would be so difficult to make. She had thought that she would pack up everything and leave for House Lie without any hesitation. But, when the time eventually came, she faltered.
Lie Wushuang heaved a sigh and then said, ”To tell you the truth, I believe that the future of the Mars belongs to Guan Dongyang. You have to draw your line now. If you really love him, then stay. If not, the boss could really use your help. But, I have to warn you that a strong and ambitious man such as Guan Dongyang would never care about a woman's feelings.”
In Lie Wushuang's eyes, Guan Dongyang and Lie Jian were the same types of persons, since they both would give up anything in their life in exchange for power and influence. To them, a long-term relationship and a woman was more of a hindrance than help on their path to dominance.
”Lei Xuan, you are not a kid anymore. Think about it and do what is best for yourself.”
Lie Xuan closed her eyes to muster enough conviction, and then she announced without any hesitation, ”I will stay! I never wanted to think too much about things. I just want to be myself.”
Lie Wushuang heaved a sigh and then said, ”Fine, but remember, House Lie is always your home.”
Lei Xuan nodded as tears streaked across her rosy cheeks. She knew that it was possible that they would never be able to see each other again.
Meanwhile, Duo Lun had injured himself while training. So, Wang Tong and Tan Bu had to turn to Ye Zi for help.
”What the heck are you guys doing? Is it suicide or training?” Ye Zi piped up while tending Duo Lun 's wounds. Duo Lun had overexerted himself and lost control of his GN force. The rogue GN force bounced back and injured him. Safety should have always been the number priority while training.
”Sorry Ye Zi, it was all my fault. I will be more careful next time.”
”I know this is not your fault, the fault is in your teacher. Furface, could you please be more careful about your training methods next time?” Ye Zi turned to Wang Tong and asked with an accusatory voice.
Wang Tong masked a smile and then replied, ”Yes, ma'am.”
Wang Tong didn't want to argue with Ye Zi about the details of the training methods, and neither did he plan to change. Duo Lun had chosen this path, so he had to take full responsibility for the consequences.
