“However, Father, my second brother has been away for many years and I’m afraid he knows nothing about military affairs. He has only just returned, and you’re already appointing him as the commander-in-chief of the review of troops. I’m afraid that this won’t be convincing to the troops.” Lin Chuang said through gritted teeth.
Lin Yuanlong sneered, "He's my son. I made him the commander-in-chief. Who dares to question it? I think the only one who's not satisfied is you."
"Father, Commander..."
"Alright! This matter is settled, don't mention it again, you can leave now!" Lin Yuanlong waved his hand impatiently and ordered.
"But Father..."
"Huh?" Lin Yuanlong's eyes widened, and Lin Chuang immediately shuddered, his fists clenching slightly. He had no choice but to bow and retreat.
But after he left, Uncle Fu looked worried. "General, the eldest young master has always been arrogant and proud. Now that you've appointed the second young master as the commander-in-chief, I'm afraid..."
"Are you worried that he might harm Yu'er?" Lin Yuanlong smiled contemptuously.
Uncle Fu shook his head with a wry smile, "I have no need to worry about the Second Young Master's strength, but when two tigers fight, one will surely be injured. After all, they are both your sons, Commander..."
Lin Yuanlong waved his hand, "Let the young people handle their own affairs. If Chuang'er wants to make trouble for himself, then let him be! Even if he's arrogant, he'll have to face reality sooner or later!"
Uncle Fu smiled wryly and immediately stopped talking.
Meanwhile, Lin Chuang returned to his bedroom, his face extremely pale.
Seeing her son's expression, Wu Xueqin knew the outcome without needing to ask any further questions.
"Sure enough, this old bastard really intends to make that little bastard the commander-in-chief?!" Wu Xueqin gritted her teeth in hatred.
Immediately, she couldn't help but worry, "Son, what should we do? The commander-in-chief has always been the heir apparent, and your father is clearly trying to make him the heir apparent!"
"Mom! You don't need to worry!" Lin Chuang sneered disdainfully, "I am now the commander of the Tiger and Leopard Regiment, with a one-star rank. My maternal grandfather is an elder of the Great Xia Dynasty. In terms of seniority and background, what can a little bastard like him do to fight me?! I think Father appointed him as the commander-in-chief mostly to make up for his shortcomings!"
"No way!" Wu Xueqin gritted her teeth and said, "You must take this commander-in-chief position no matter what! You absolutely cannot let him have it!"
"Of course!" Lin Chuang sneered, "Mom, don't worry. This kid has been afraid of me since he was a child. I'll summon him later and give him a good talking-to. He'll probably back down on his own!"
Wu Xueqin reminded him with a serious expression, "Son, you can't completely underestimate this little bastard! He's really different this time!"
"I previously placed a Xuan-level assassin near Rose, but he's already been killed. I suspect this kid must have a powerful protector by his side!"
A Xuan-level assassin?
Lin Chuang's eyes widened slightly. The Wu family's Blood Shadow Guards were divided into four levels: Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow! Profound-level assassins were extremely rare! Even in the martial arts world, they were unparalleled masters!
However, Lin Chuang's expression remained disdainful. "Mom, don't worry! I brought a friend with me when I came back from Guanzhong this time. He is the disciple of Li Qingcang, the number one expert in Guanzhong. With him here, we can easily suppress this little bastard!"
"Not to mention, I have my Tiger and Leopard Gang in the city. This kid can't cause any trouble!"
At this point, Lin Chuang's eyes narrowed slightly, a murderous glint in them.
