Chương 669: An Opportunity

"Welcome back, brother Wang Tong!" Li Shiming extended a welcoming hand. Wang Tong held his hand and pumped it rigorously. "Nice to see you again, Brother Li."

The two of them both had poised bearings, and the situation filled Li Shiming's heart with wistful emotions. Like Lie Jian, he could have risen to power without much consideration for humans' unity, but he had chosen the right but the more difficult path of helping Wang Tong.

"Why are you two so formal? Men are strange creatures." Li Ruoer's remark amused the two. 

"Someone needs to teach my brassy sister a lesson." Li Shiming put in. Over the years, Li Ruoer's affection for Wang Tong was no longer a secret. No matter how Porten tried to win Li Ruoer's heart, his efforts had all but failed. After getting fed up of Porten's unwanted attention, Li Ruoer told him straight out that she would marry him if he could defeat her in a one on one battle. Porten never showed up at her doorstep again after that.
