Master Head of the Dragon Soul

Chapter 827 Sharing The Credit

In Plum Blossom Village of Jiangling City, Zhou Lie, carrying a jug of plum blossom wine, looked at the overwhelming news about the triumphant return of the 'Dragon Soul Warlord,' laughing heartily and brimming with pride.

"Hey, Zhou, drinking so early? What's the occasion? Would you like to share the joy with us?" Several neighbors at the village entrance, their mouths full of yellowed teeth, grinned and asked.

"Mind your own business, what does it matter to you?" Zhou Lie snapped, leaving the neighbors furious and cursing him.

However, Zhou Lie kept his gaze fixed on the newspaper's prominent headline, grinning proudly.

See that? That's my son! I raised him!

Now, as the leader of the Northern Wolf Cavalry, bearing the weight of the world, he had become a national hero.

Meanwhile, at an unnamed sea area in Yenching, majestic waves crashed against a rock shaped like a human. According to legend, this stone is called the 'Husband-Gazing Statue.' It was said to be a monument to an ancient, virtuous woman who awaited her husband's return from the military day and night. Her unwavering dedication and love turned into this rock, enduring the wind and rain for centuries without changing. Over time, this place had become a sacred site for couples. Every woman deeply in love would come here to pray and bless her beloved man who was far away.

On the shore, Yun Muqing held Duo Duo, her charming face raised, looking towards the direction of Xi Ye, full of excitement and pride. "Sweetie, your father is a true hero, a great man who stands tall and firm."

"Yes, Daddy is the best." The little girl waved her chubby little fist, her big eyes sparkling. "I will wait with you for him to come back!"

"I'm sure he'll be back soon." Yun Muqing reassured with a comforting smile.

The Dragon Soul Warlord rose to fame in a single battle, his name echoing across the vast lands.

In every corner of the country, people were enthusiastic and extremely proud as they discussed the various deeds of the 'Dragon Soul Warlord.' However, Chu Feng, the main character, didn't think much of it.

Having served in the military for over a decade and experienced hundreds of battles, he had long passed the age of seeking fame and fortune, of swelling pride. At this point, he had a somewhat transcendent attitude of 'accomplishing great deeds without seeking recognition,' an outlook detached from worldly concerns.

To him, defending the homeland was a soldier's duty, a sacred mission. If possible, he would prefer to see Donghua prosper in peace, even if it meant sacrificing his own honors.

"Dragon Lord, there's a commendation order from Yenching Academy, and they are preparing a celebration for your triumphant return," Chen FengXing said proudly and excitedly.

The other generals were also filled with joy. After three months of war, they finally ushered in peace.

Chu Feng casually glanced around and said, "There's still much work to be done in Xi Ye. After finishing these tasks, we'll return to Yenching. Also, make sure you have the names of everyone present here on the merit list and send the list to Yenching. Tell him I request that." Chu Feng was smiling as he spoke. While he might not value military honors and fame, his subordinates, who accompanied him through thick and thin, deserved recognition. Some of them even represented the hopes of entire families. Chu Feng couldn't afford to mistreat them.

"Thank you, Dragon Lord!" The generals expressed their gratitude.

While other commanders would rush to claim all the credit for such a rare and remarkable achievement, Chu Feng generously distributed the merits among his subordinates. His generosity and broad-mindedness were truly admirable and deserving of respect.

After giving a few simple instructions, Chu Feng began checking the report documents.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
