Hearing that, everyone expressed their understanding and wished for Great General Shangguan to have good rest. No one wanted to offend this old general who had great influence just like that.
Even if they knew he was lying... who dared to point it out?
Nan Hua also noticed that her grandfather, Old Master Nan, was following Great General Shangguan inside. It seemed that the real reason for him to not be present was because he wanted to catch up with his old friend.
'Great General Shangguan's return...'
It seemed that such incident did occur in the novel. If she was not wrong, the real reason why the younger generations were gathered was because...
"Xiao, you can sit down now."
Second Young Commander Shangguan, Shangguan Xiao, looked at the middle aged man who came and nodded. "Yes, Father."
General Shangguan was a general who followed his father's footsteps and spent most of his time at the battlefield. He rarely came back home and his children ended up following the same path as him. He had valiant figure and aura, making one knew that he was not one to be underestimated.Gét latest novel chapters on nov(e)lbj/n(.)c/om
Since his youngest son, Shangguan Xiao, was already 18 years old, there was no point of him returning back home most of the time.
Only his wife was staying behind, waiting for her husband and children's news from time to time.
General Shangguan looked at the crowd and nodded. "Thank you for coming on such a short notice. The real reason why we call you all here is because of the next plan. I have discussed with General Long, General Chi, and General Feng about this before and that all four of you will have to endure a month's training of winter battle."
Winter battle.
They were all living at the southern area. In this place, there was winter but it was not a severe as the north. There was barely any snow in Fei Yang Kingdom and even if there was any, it was mostly light. Since they were planning on fighting against other kingdoms, the younger generations naturally have to start learning how to fight during winter.
"Winter battle?" Nan Luo was a bit interested.
At the very least, she would not get nothing from this event.
Soon, Shangguan Yi walked to the hall with a servant helping him. His right leg was limpid and his face flushed red in embarrassment. Being seen in this state by Long Qian Xing, Chi Song Lian, Feng Ao Si, and Shangguan Xiao was an utter embarrassment for him.
General Shangguan snorted. "Since you still could move, you'll participate. The five of you will have to fight."
Shangguan Yi's face changed. "First Uncle, I..."
"You can still move."
Move.
Yes, he could definitely still move, but his legs were not in the best condition. Having to fight against a monster like his uncle, he definitely wouldn't be able to escape unscathed.
"But I..."
"When you're at the battlefield, would your opponent care whether you're injured or not?" General Shangguan looked at his nephew and shook his head. He always felt that Shangguan Yi was an utter embarrassment for Shangguan Family. If not because he rarely stayed at the Capital City, he would have long asked for the brat to be punished heavily.
Thankfully, Shangguan Yi was already 14 years old. If he was sent to the frontline, he would have many chance to discipline this rowdy brat.
Shangguan Yi gritted his teeth. "Yes, First Uncle."
Nan Hua listened to them talking from the side. She was really wondering why the people from the Shangguan Family was very different from each other. It seemed that the problem stemmed from the elders.
How interesting.
"General Shangguan, may I ask you what my father said regarding this training?" Chi Song Lian asked faintly.
