Chapter 478: Visitors from House Lie

Chapter 478: Visitors from House Lie

Translator: Oneshotwonder Editor: Hitesh_

There was another familiar face among the member of House Lie: Lie Wushuang. Lie Wushuang had just turned twenty-seven this year, and his seniority and experience had lent him confidence. Each step he took held an unswerving determination and purpose. Among the half dozen warriors sent by House Lie, he ought to be the strongest.

"Balls! That's Lie Wushuang! He is the boss' competitor." Lun Duo scowled and lamented.

"He has no chance! How many years had he stayed close to Lie Xuan, and still no dice? If Lie Xuan were interested in him, they would have already gotten married." Tan Bu shook his head. Clearly, he knew women better than his best friend.

While they were speaking, the entourage had filed into Guan Dongyang's room. Lie Xuan held hands with Ye Zi and started chattering like two teenage girls. Everyone's face lit up with glee; it was evident that Guan Dongyang had kept an amicable relationship with House Lie.

As Lie Xuan and Ye Zi walked out of the room and disappeared into the distance, Tan Bu and Lun Duo both heaved a sigh.

"I would rather die in the bed with a hot muffin than live a single extra day. I have decided, I will work extra hours every day to become one of the super METAL warriors, and find myself a sweetheart as beautiful as those two." Tan Bu thought for a few seconds and then announced with determination in his voice.

When he finished announcing his newfound resolution, he found out that Duo Lun had already left him, dragging Wang Tong behind.

"Don't mind him; he is an idiot." The wind blew a few words out of Duo Lun's mouth into Tan Bu's ears.

"Hehe, everything is possible." Wang Tong said quietly to himself.

Tan Bu caught up with the two and walked to their rooms together. Suddenly, they heard a voice calling out to them, and they saw Ross scuttling toward them.

"What are you three doing here?" Ross asked.

"Nothing, nothing. We didn't do anything." Tan Bu hurried to reply.

"I know you guys are peeking at those girls. Everyone knows that you only think with what's in between your legs instead of what's on your shoulder. Come, Furface. Boss is looking for you. We have a guest today, so don't let us down." Ross commanded.

"What's up?"

"I have no idea either, just follow me. Ask less, do more!"

Wang Tong nodded and waved to the two young soldiers. "Don't forget to find me tonight."

When Wang Tong arrived at Guan Dongyang's room, he was greeted by swells of laughter. Everyone was listening to Lie Xuan's recent battles while throwing banter at her from time to time.

Guan Dongyang didn't pay much attention to Wang Tong when he first heard of his arrival. However, during the battle at the hills, he was surprised by how well his METAL had functioned. Therefore, he thought he owed Wang Tong a formal appreciation.

Ye Zi knew Wang Tong well, and therefore, she pushed herself up from the chair, walked to Wang Tong, and introduced him.

"This is the furface of Battle Wolf… An excellent METAL mechanic, palpably the best on Mars! We will take him with us to the tournament to identify the looted METAL."

Lie Xuan surveyed Wang Tong and heaved a sigh of disappointment. Martians were never good at hiding their feelings. "The best? Do you think the five mechanics of House Lie are any worse than this...loser? "

Although Guan Dongyang was well aware of Lie Xuan's personality, her ill choice of words spurred a knot on Guan Dongyang's face.

Sensing her words had gone a little overboard, Lie Xuan quickly plastered on a whimsical smile and laughed out loud. "Haha! I was just joking! Come sit by me, Mr. Furface. We will be counting on you to see through any tricks from the Thunder Fire."

Wang Tong nodded; time didn't change her carelessness, but made her made more aware of other's feelings nonetheless.

"Brother Guan, we should take advantage and establish your authority among the other factions. Let those Thunder Fire shoot themselves in the foot." Lie Wushuang announced.

"Hehe, you have spoken my mind, Brother Wushuang. I will send the Battle Wolf members out first, and you can help out once things start to get hairy."

Lie Wushuang nodded in approval. He scanned the room and found Wang Tong sitting quietly in his seat.

"You don't like to talk, do you?" Lie Wushuang asked.

Wang Tong's eyes found Lie Wushuang's gaze, but he didn't say a word.

Ye Zi hurried to reply on behalf of Wang Tong. "He is just a technician, probably too afraid to talk to you at this moment."

"Lie Xuan, make sure you rest well. We will move out tomorrow."

"Roger that."

"Ah… We have other matters to take care of. You two, please continue. " Ye Zi squeezed a wink at everyone and left the room. Ross and everyone else picked up the cue and followed Ye Zi out of the room, leaving Guan Dongyang alone with Lie Xuan.

Lie Xuan cast a glance at Lie Wushuang, willing him to stay.

It was true that Lie Wushuang used to be obsessed with Le Xuan, but not anymore. However, Guan Dongyang's insistent courtship of his former lover annoyed the former like a prick in his side.

Lie Jian really liked Guan Dongyang's talent, but his favor was limited to only business. Even though Lie Jian never planned to marry his sister to Guan Dongyang, neither did he ever openly oppose his courtship. Using her sister as a pivot, Lie Jian played a smart game against two of his most potent associates. He used Guan Dongyang's actions to stoke the flame of jealousy inside Lie Wushuang, and in the end, they both had to ask him for help —a hefty bargaining chip that he could weigh in when asking the two for their loyalties.

"Furface, don't mind what Lie Xuan had said. House Lie folks can be jerks sometimes." Ye Zi said.

Wang Tong shrugged.

Ye Zi cracked a smile and then said, "They are very generous this time. Other than Lie Wushuang and Lie Xuan, the other four warriors are all level sixteen. It should give the Thunder Fire some pressure."

"Is it allowed to have external aid from House Lie?"

"Of course!" Ye Zi was taken aback by the question.

"What if Thunder Fire does the same?"

"Phf... What kind of aid would they have?" Ye Zi snorted.

"Hey, you! Have we met before?" A deep voice boomed behind the two. It was Lie Wushuang, his eyes locked onto Wang Tong.

"No." Wang Tong shook his head.

Lie Wushuang thought for a second; it was true that he never knew any mechanic except for those who worked for House Lie.

After exchanged a greeting with Ye Zi, Lie Wushuang left with his associates.

"You should go back and prepare for tomorrow's task, " Ye Zi said to Wang Tong.

Wang Tong nodded and walked away. But, he didn't go back to his room. Instead, he went straight to Duo Lun and Tan Bu's room.

"Hey, Furface, how did you know we were here? Did you cast a location spell on us? Haha!"

"Spell you're a*s! " Wang Tong cursed for the first time in a long time.

Sensing that Wang Tong was finally loosening up, Tan Bu said, "Here we go! Let it all out. You know, I was dumped fifty-six times! And look at me now… a chick magnet!"

"I was never dumped." Wang Tong protested, but his voice betrayed him.

"We know the pain, bro. We neither have the power nor a pretty face like our boss. But, as long as we keep at it, we will be fine. Hey, do you want to know some useful information to up your game a notch?"

"Oh? Do tell." Wang Tong's interest was piqued.

"Haha, there are beauty queens on Mars. The first one is Heidi, but it is impossible to court her because of obvious reasons. The second is the most beautiful and talented medic Susu. She is the founder of the Field Medic Association. The third is the daughter of the Lord of Thunder Drum, Zambrotta."

"Zambrotta's daughter?" Wang Tong shouted in disbelief as Zambrotta's ragged face appeared in his mind.

"Yes, she looks like her mom. After Einherjar Wannabe defeated Zambrotta, he recovered and regained momentum in the development of the Thunder Drum. After the Zergs' invasion, he fled with his followers and quickly formed a resistance force. His group is the third most powerful force right after the House Lie and the Divine Master Sect."
