664 Alive Like A Tiger (2/2)

”Don't be so hasty! Let's think this through!”

”I believe in Wang Tong, and I hope you do too.” Ma Xiaoru put in.

”You two are...” Old Fart sighted heavily and then said, ”How about both of you take a good rest tonight, and we will talk tomorrow. If you still insist on going, I will make the arrangements for you. But, I am not sure if she will come with you or not even if you can get to her.” Years of experience told Wang Buting that Wang Tong's action was too brash.

When the rest of the Templars saw Wang Tong, their hearts were filled with excitement and trepidation. Not only did he look different than he did six years ago, he also had become a legend and the beacon of hope among the Templars.

The Templars didn't leave Wang Tong's residence until late that night as they exchanged tales of the battlefield with the young master. The Templars had proven their abilities during the test of war. It wasn't until the war broke out that the world finally saw the full strength of the court. Millions of secret followers revealed their identity as inner court Templars and picked up their weapons to fight. Of the hundreds of thousands of inner court Templars, half of them were METAL warriors and the other half weren't, as they were comprised of elites from other professions. Their offspring would inherit their title as the inner court disciples as they did from the generation before them.

The Templar's court had kept most of their inner court disciples undercover during the peaceful times, and only enlisted their services during a crisis.

There were only a handful of Templars on the Moon and Mars, but all of them were elites in their own rights. Yin Tianzong was a good example of those Templars who operated covertly. Even now, there were secret agents working against Patroclus right under his nose on the Moon. Even House Zhang that was well known for their espionage capabilities could not match the Templar's large covert network. All of House Zhang's agents were picked off one after another by Immortals due to Patroclus's familiarity with House Zhang.

Wang Tong tucked Ma Xiaoru's shoulder under his arm. Without the war, this could be their life forever. The thought of a happy and peaceful life as one family spurred him to continue fighting.

”Wang Tong, you need to get her out of there. She must be suffering.” Ma Xiaoru murmured.

Wang Tong was touched by Ma Xiaoru's understanding. To save Zhou Sisi meant that she would have to leave Ma Xiaoru again. Although Ma Xiaoru had the protection of her guards, leaving her worried Wang Tong. However, compared to her, Zhou Sisi's situation was much worse, and Wang Tong still cared about Zhou Sisi a great deal.

”Xiaoru, I…”

”You don't have to explain. I know you care about her and I can't mind…But only her, no one else, however pretty they are.” Ma Xiaoru half-joked and half warned Wang Tong.

”Who are you talking about? You are the prettiest!”

”Really? Prettier than Princess Heidi?”

”Of course!” Wang Tong squeezed Ma Xiaoru's butt and said.

”Well, you better save your energy for me then.” Ma Xiaoru pressed her firm butt deeper into Wang Tong's palm and winked at Wang Tong.

The next morning, Wang Tong left the earth for the moon to save Zhou Sisi.

While Wang Tong was gone, the human fleet didn't rush to the Moon as the Immortals had expected; instead, they had secured Mars' space and cut off the Immortals' communication with the remaining Zergs outside of the Earth-Moon system.

Mars was situated at a strategic location since it was the gateway between the solar system and colonies that were in other galaxies.
