The Rise of a Special Forces Soldier Abandoned by a Wealthy Family

Inside a room, Zeng Linglong sat upright on a flat stool after taking a shower.

Yan Rugo and Anna are giving Zeng Linglong a haircut, one on each side.

With each strand of hair that falls, a tear falls from their eyes.

Five years have passed, and in those five years they have watched him grow his hair long and flowing.

Watching him go wild with music all by himself.

Watching him suppress his fighting spirit as he awaited his return.

After giving Zeng Linglong a haircut, they gently helped him put on his military uniform and changed his shoes.

In the mirror, a young military officer with short hair, a resolute face, and deep-set eyes slowly appeared.

His shoulders are bare, but his chest will be adorned with the highest honor.

Zeng Linglong stood up, tucked his military cap into his waistband, and walked out of the bar.

All the Dragon Shadow team members stood in neat rows and watched him silently.

Old Liu came to Zeng Linglong's side.

He first presented the medal that represented the highest honor for a soldier—

Hanging it on Zeng Linglong's left chest, then taking out two sets of military ranks and inserting them into the shoulders of Zeng Linglong's regular uniform.

After doing all this, Old Liu stepped back three meters.

Zeng Linglong put on his military cap and gave Old Liu a standard military salute.

Old Liu raised his hand in salute with a serious expression.

Two soldiers, two generations of war gods, frozen in time in the night sky.

Zeng Linglong turned to the left, facing the Dragon Shadow team members in front of him.

At this moment, he was wearing the rank of Major General on his shoulders—

The youngest major general in the entire Dragon Kingdom was born at this moment.

He truly deserves the title; whether in military affairs, military achievements, or contributions to the country and the people, his individual contributions far exceed those of a regular army.

All the Dragon Shadow team members looked at their leader, the youngest major general in the Dragon Kingdom, and their backs straightened even more.

"Swish—" They saluted in unison, their voices hoarse and unified:

"Welcome back, Judgement! Welcome back, God of War!"

The military salute lingered for a long time, the sound echoing in the night sky.

Zeng Linglong also raised his right hand in salute, his voice hoarse:

"Brothers, it's so good to see you all alive."

Then he looked up at the night sky, spread his arms, and said excitedly:

"Now that our brothers are still alive, let all our enemies tremble!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!" One hundred and thirty-three voices responded simultaneously.

Zeng Linglong turned and walked towards the helicopter.

Behind him were his teammates, the two most important girls in his life.

The helicopter rotors began to spin, and the roar grew louder and louder.

Yan Hai, Yang Li, and three others came out.

The five of them had been studying under Zeng Linglong for five years and were no longer spoiled brats.

Yan Hai and Yang Li also obtained their diplomas from Peking University through self-study.

Yan Hai had matured a lot by this time.

He looked at the four of them: "Where are you going next?"

Tengfei said with a smile:

"I have no choice but to go back to the capital; my family's large business still needs me to manage it."

"Besides, since your sister Xiaoyu is in Beijing, I have no choice but to stay in Beijing."

Li Lunjie chuckled:

"Brother Long has taught me a lot over the past five years, and Brother Lang and the others have personally trained me for another five years. So I can only go to the army and try to become Brother Long's team member."

Yan Hai patted Li Lunjie on the shoulder:

"Then you'd better work hard. I heard that Shiliu also went to the army, and it's a female special forces unit. She received instruction from Sister Xiaoya, so her rank will definitely be higher than yours."

"She's our sister. If you're a lower-ranking officer than her, don't go around saying you're my brother."

Li Lunjie makes a strongman move:

"I've also received personal instruction from Brother Long and Brother Wolf. If I go to the army, those ordinary special forces soldiers probably can't beat me. Do you think I'll do badly then?"

Yan Hai ignored him and looked at Yang Li.

Yang Li spread his arms wide, looking relaxed.

"I'm going back to Beijing. My family wants me to take a position in a ministry first, and then be sent to a local area for further training in a few years. Hai-ge, what about you?"

Yan Hai straightened his head:

"My brother-in-law asked me to take up a position in Tiezhu's hometown county as my first post."

He said that although it was tough there, it was easy to achieve political success and it was also the best place to train people.

Yang Li's eyes lit up:

"Hey Hai, do you know why your brother-in-law left you there?"

"Tch!" Yan Hai looked at Yang Li with disdain.

"You think you're the only one who could think of that? I received my brother-in-law's true teachings."

"That's Tiezhu's hometown. Tiezhu's mother still lives there!"

"Xiaoya's father is an academician, so she doesn't need her brother-in-law's help."

"And my brother-in-law has already helped Ye Feng's family become a wealthy family in Shanghai."

"Now only Tie Zhu's family is left. When that time comes, my brother-in-law will definitely do everything he can to help Tie Zhu's hometown."

"Didn't my trip just happen to be at a crucial moment?"

"When I attract investment, I'll become a hot commodity for officials and ordinary people, and my achievements will come naturally."

"Anyway, my brother-in-law said that I'm not allowed to go back to Beijing unless I become a county magistrate there."

"Great!" The four of them gave Yan Hai a thumbs up at the same time.

Young Master Hu began to speak:

"Brother Long's strategy is brilliant, and Brother Hai, your comprehension and good fortune are also remarkable."

"Others who start out in politics are completely lost, but Brother Long has arranged everything perfectly for you."

Yan Hai looked at Hu Sanshao: "And what about you? Where are you going?"

Young Master Hu was all smiles:

"I'm going back to Beijing to start a company. Aren't we going to keep the company we had before?"

"That's money that we brothers invested ourselves."

"Brother Long has already told me that our company will become a supplier for Longyu."

"Even if we don't say it's a lot, we can still make several hundred million in profit a year."

"I'll set up a meeting place then, so you guys will have a place to get together when you go back to Beijing."

"Alright, let's do it this way. Let's go our separate ways, and wish each other well."

Yang Li watched Yan Hai's departing figure:

"Hey Hai, what about the bar? You don't want the bar anymore?"

Yan Hai turned around and chuckled:

"The bar has been given to Long Yu, and he will arrange for professionals to manage it."

The helicopter has taken off and is heading towards Beijing.

Zeng Linglong sat in the cabin, with Yan Ruge on his left and Anna on his right.

His hands held theirs tightly, silent yet speaking volumes.

Outside the window, the lights of Tiankun City receded into the distance, while the lights of Beijing drew ever closer.

His family and his empire are there.

Old Liu sat opposite him, looking at the young man, unable to stop smiling.

He had lived to such an old age and seen countless heroes and great men, but he had never seen anyone like this.

He is not a hero, he is a legend.
