Chapter 24
"Bro, I went back to Jing Du yesterday and I saw the King, who had issued a secret edict to crown you as the Tian Long God of War. It was unnecessary for me to read out the imperial edict. Let's deal it in a simple way. You read it by yourself."
Fan Gang took out the secret edict as he said, handing it to Xiao Potian.
Xiao Potian took the secret edict and glanced at it, the main idea of which was the Wolf Kingdom had invaded the West of the country, and the Great Dragon Kingdom was in danger. So he was especially crowned as the Tian Long God of War to command the armed forces and repell the enemies in the West.
Xiao Potian was filled with emotion when he took the secret edict. It was three years, and he finally had been entrusted an important task again!
A potencial man would never live in a narrow space in obscurity all the time. Once he met the chance, he would immediately take it and release all his potencial.
Xiao Potian looked up at the sky. The white clouds were hanging over there. Suddenly, he felt it heroic that if not him? Who?
"Bro, you are the Tian Long God of War who is in charge of the powerful army officially from now on. Millions of troops will be commanded by you freely!"Fan Gang said.
"Right! I, Xiao Potian, would definitely live up to the King's expectation. Just a small country even dare to invade our border. I swear I must destory them, making their bodies lie everywhere and their blood flow like a river!" Xiao Potian said.
"That's good! Who can compete with the God of War when he comes out? The end of the enemies is coming soon!" Fan Gang said.
"How are you getting on with the wedding thing?" Now Xiao Potian couldn't help asking Fan Gang although he had said to him before that he wouldn't ask him about the preparation process of the wedding, only care about the result.
"Don't worry, Bro. I have invited a very professional team to make plans and arrange it for you. Everything is going according to plan, and I'm sure to give you a surprise the day after tomorrow." Fan Gang said.
"Is Tian Long Hotel booked by you?" Xiao Potian asked again.
"Yes." Fan Gang said.
"In fact, you don't have to make it so grand. I was a little serious when I told you the conditions before. The enemies are invading our border now, and our Great Dragon Kingdom is in danger. As the Tian Long God of War of the Great Dragon Kingdom, I certainly will go out to repel the enemies without hesitation even if you don't hold this wedding for me." Xiao Potian said. He was a little worried that Fan Gang would made this wedding grander and grander.
"It's Okay. You have suffered so many grievances these years. You can take it for granted that holding a grand wedding to make it up and making the sister-in-law see you in a different way. I have sent out some invitations for you to invite someone influential to come to congratulate you." Fan Gang said.
"All right, since you have sent out the invitations. The arrow has already left the bowstring and it can't be withdrawn. Then just go according to your plan. By the way, I have asked Shen Ningxiang and my wife's best friend Wang Shihan to be the bridesmaids." Xiao Potian said.
"Okay, you decide the bridesmaids things, and give me others to do." Fan Gang said.
"It's such an important wedding, so I must invite my foster father to the spot. Now you go with me to my foster father's house." Xiao Potian said.
"Okay."
So they went downstairs and Fan Gang drove the car, heading to a farmhouse in the suburb.
Fan Gang didn't know Xiao Potian had a foster father although he had followed Xiao Potian for many years,
Xiao Potian told Fan Gang something about his foster father and him on the way.
His foster father's name was Yang Zhong, who was a veteran, once going through fire and water against the rain of bullets.
His right leg was shot unluckily in a tragic battle. And his right leg was disabled and he became a lame after treatment.
Xiao Potian and his mother were kicked out by their family in those days, wandering in Nan Guang city. His mother died because of depression although they were helped by Jiang Dewang and Chu Yuxin, and settled down in the suburb,
Afterwards, Yang Zhong adopted Xiao Potian.
Yang Zhong was a veteran who had made excellent contributions for the country although his right leg was disabled. So he had subsidies every month, and it was not a problem to adopt Xiao Potian.
The fact that Xiao Potian joined the army was influenced by Yang Zhong.
In those days, Yang Zhong always said to him that a good man should serve his country with fidelity, fighting for it and building a career on the battlefield, which could show his heroic character.
Afterwards, Yang Zhong knew all the things that Xiao Potian joined the army resolutely, made great battle achievement, and was crowned as the National Protect Tiger General at a young age.
Yang Zhong also knew the reason why Xiao Potian turned down the reward, resigned and returned to his home three years ago, .
Xiao Potian and Yang Zhong were father and son who were close and talked about anything.
During these years, Xiao Potian would find some time to visit Yang Zhong every month although he got married with Chu Yuxin and lived with the Chu's family,
......
The car soon arrived at the gate of Yang Zhong's house in the suburb.
Fan Gang saw a old man who was fifties and had vicissitudes on his face was sitting in the doorway smoking a cigarette with his pipe. He knew that was Xiao Potian's foster father Yang Zhong without asking.
Yang Zhong stunned instantly when he saw Xiao Potian take a general in military uniform and with three stars on his shoulder here this time.
"Tian, Who is this?" Yang Zhong struggled to his feet and asked.
"Dad, he is my old subordinate Fan Gang." Xiao Potian introduced.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Yang!" Fan Gang gave Yang Zhong a military salute solemnly. He had already respected this old hero who had devoted one leg for the country so much after he heard from Xiao Potian about Yang Zhong's story, .
"Nice to meet you too, General Fan!" Yang Zhong also gave Fan Gang a military salute.
"All right, Dad, let's get into the house and talk." Xiao Potian helped Yang Zhong walk into the house after he finished speaking.
Xiao Potian said directly when they got into the house,:"Dad, I have two good news to tell you this time."
"What's the good news? Tell me quickly." Yang Zhong had guessed a little when he saw a general with three stars on his shoulder follow Xiao Potian here, so he got a little excited.
"Now, the Wolf Kingdom was invading our border. The King had issued a secret edict to crown me as the Tian Long God of War to command millions of troops of the Great Dragon Kingdom and head to the West to repel the enemies." Xiao Potian took out the secret edict and gave it to Yang Zhong to see after he said this.
Yang Zhong took the secret edict, and he was so excited that his hands trembled.
"Good! Good! My son finally goes back to the battlefield, commands the troops, and fights for the country again! I knew the day would come sooner or later!" Yang Zhong was so excited that he shed tears.
"Don't be so excited, Dad. You are in poor health." Xiao Potian said.
"Nonsence! How couldn't I be excited about such an exciting news?" Yang Zhong wiped his tears and said.
"Okay, Okay. You can stay excited for a while. I will tell you the second good news when you calm down." Xiao Potian said.
"Don't keep me guessing. Tell me what's the second good news quickly."Yang Zhong couldn't wait and asked.
"The second good news is that Yu Xin and I will have a grand wedding in Tian Long Hotel the day after tomorrow. Fan Gang have arranged everything for me." Xiao Potian said.
"Good! That's so good!" You have been a member of the Chu's family for three years and have suffered many grievances. Now you are the command of millons of troops. Having a wedding ceremony will definitely make the Chu's family see you in a different way." Yang Zhong said happily. He certainly knew Xiao Potian and Chu Yuxin didn't have a wedding ceremony when they got married three years ago, .
"Um. I will dispatch someone to pick you up to attend my wedding in Tian Long Hotel the day after tomorrow." Xiao Potian said.
"I......I think I'll pass. That big occasion is not fit me." Yang Zhong said.
"How could you be absent from my wedding? You must be there! You are the one who survived in the rain of bullets. What kind of big scene don't you see and what are you worry about?" Xiao Potian said.
"I'm such a disabled and old man, while you are the Tian Long God of War. I will influence you if I come, and the Chu's family will feel humiliated." Yang Zhong said.
"What are you saying, Dad? You worried too much. You are the foster father of Tian Long God of War. Who dares to show you disrespect? There won't be the Tian Long God of War today without your support in those days. As for the Chu's family, they would be scared on that day, so how could they gossip you?" Xiao Potian said.
"Uncle Yang, you are the old hero who devoted a leg to the country, the model that we need to learn from, and you are respected by everyone. I will kick his ass first if anyone dares to show you disrespect!" Fan Gang also said.
