The Retired Soldier King Raises an Peerless Immortal with Heavenly Merit

On his eighty-eighth birthday, Li Weiguo, once an all-around soldier king, closed his eyes and opened them to find himself in the cultivation world. His heart was as true as ever, and he casually picked up a few orphans with extraordinary potential to raise as his grandchildren. He used military strategy to discipline them and the spirit of a soldier to forge their character, turning a bunch of little tykes into extraordinarily gifted disciples of an immortal sect. He thought he could finally enjoy a peaceful retirement, but then discovered that demonic energy was surging in the shadows of the cultivation world, and that Changsheng, the grandson he loved most, was the “key” to unlocking a seal from another world. The mastermind was a titan of the Immortal Realm, and the demonic tide was at their doorstep. Li Weiguo tapped the bowl of his tobacco pipe, his eyes as sharp as ever. “I don't care if you're gods, immortals, demons, or monsters. If you touch my kids or wreck this world, I won't stand for it!” So the veteran geared up, awakened the wisdom of the people, and laid formations across the land. With a bunch of kids capable of turning the world upside down at his side, he used mortal ingenuity to face the Immortal Realm's devious schemes, carving a path through desperate odds. When the universe was finally cleansed, the Heavenly Dao bestowed its favor and asked what reward he wanted. Li Weiguo looked at the children beside him, now towering trees that held up the sky, and grinned. “Send me home. I've got a granddaughter who can't cook waiting for me!”
