Bai Jun, the God of War

The God of War of the Northern Frontier spent three years as a live-in son-in-law, pretending to be a dog.

Three years ago, to save the lives of his 100,000 brothers, Bai Jun was poisoned with the deadly Locking Dragon Powder. He signed a secret ceasefire agreement and was framed as a traitor who had sold out his country. Left half-dead in the snow, he was taken in by the Lu family's patriarch. To repay the debt, he followed his master's orders and married into the family, hiding his identity as the God of War and becoming a useless son-in-law whom anyone could trample on.

His mother-in-law slapped him, his brother-in-law posted a video of him crawling between his legs to the family group chat, and the whole family branded him a "loser." His wife, Lu Yun, signed the divorce papers, just waiting for the three-year term to end so she could kick him out.

Three years. Every day, he was humiliated. Every day, he mopped floors and delivered takeout. Every night, the poison faded a little more.

The last day of the three-year agreement. Urgent news arrived from the border: 300,000 enemy troops were bearing down. At a Lu family banquet, Zhao Tianlin publicly pressured Lu Yun to drink a nuptial toast with him, while her mother tossed the divorce papers in Bai Jun's face.

At the very moment Bai Jun bent down to pick them up,

A black-and-gold battle flag bearing a dragon burst through the door. Betrothal gifts worth tens of billions crashed through the Lu family's doorway, and all the city's nobles knelt before him.

"We welcome the commander back to his post!"

Bai Jun tore up the divorce papers, handed Lu Yun a project worth hundreds of billions, then headed north and slew seven enemy generals.

On the day he returned victorious, Lu Yun stood at the city gate holding a bowl of hot soup.

But she had no idea that a secret kept hidden for fifteen years was about to come to light: her father's death was no accident.

Zhao Wujiao, the Grand Preceptor of three dynasties, had been waiting fifteen years for Bai Jun to die.
