Chapter 520 Use Him Hard
When Lin Zhao brought You Shen to the Western District Army Corps, they saw a line of soldiers standing in line.

Lin Zhao curiously leaned over to see what they were lining up for.

"These are wounded soldiers waiting in line for Miss Cui to treat them. What are you doing here causing trouble?"

Seeing Lin Zhao jumping around trying to see what they were arranging, it was clear she wasn't an injured person. The soldier behind her couldn't stand it anymore and gave her a slap.

Lin Zhao rubbed his shoulder where he had been punched, chuckled sheepishly, and obediently retreated to You Shen's side: "I've been with the Western District Legion for quite some time now, but I don't remember a Miss Cui; what was she again?"

You Shen didn't say anything, but reminded her, "Someone's coming over there. Are they looking for you?"

Lin Zhao looked in the direction You Shen pointed and saw Kong Hui and Feng Chenlan walking quickly towards him. He immediately waved to them.

This time, seeing that Lin Zhao's expression wasn't so bad, Feng Chenlan politely greeted Lin Zhao and then looked at You Shen beside him: "And this gentleman is?"

While You Shen was still thinking about how to introduce himself, Lin Zhao spoke up: "This is my second brother, whom I mentioned to Lord Kong before. He heard that I joined the Western District Legion and also wants to join. My second brother's cultivation has now reached the late stage of the Golden Core realm."

Upon hearing this, a look of appreciation flashed across Feng Chenlan's face: "At such a young age, you have already cultivated to the Golden Core stage. Your talent is quite outstanding."

This was the first time You Shen had been evaluated by a Nascent Soul cultivator in such a senior-like tone. Not knowing how to react, he simply accepted it with a blank expression.

Kong Hui glanced at You Shen, then at Feng Chenlan, thinking to herself that her uncle rarely expressed his appreciation for anyone, and even less so was he being so polite to anyone who didn't follow military discipline. He guessed that his attitude towards Zhao Lin and her brother was out of respect for their aunt. However, it was really too difficult for her cold and unyielding uncle and uncle-in-law to speak like this.

Especially since he finally praised a young person, and the young person didn't even acknowledge it, it was simply...

Not knowing how to evaluate the situation, Kong Hui simply remained silent, beckoned to Lin Zhao, and led her away.

When Feng Chenlan saw his niece leave like that, he almost choked with anger. But thinking of his wife, who had recovered to about 70-80%, he forced himself to talk to You Shen on his own.

Feng Chenlan is a man of few words and an iron face. If he were good at social skills, he wouldn't have been assigned to be the person in charge of the Western District Legion, despite having such a powerful backer and considerable strength and talent.

Now, he's being forced to put on a kind face and lead the younger generation into the army, which is like making a tiger nurse a kitten. Feng Chenlan's expression twisted for a moment before he finally said, "Come with me."

Fortunately, although You Shen didn't think much of the upper and lower realms or this Nascent Soul cultivator, he wasn't completely uncooperative.

The two of them asked each other questions and quickly arrived at the registration area.

"what is it call?"

"Youshen."

You Shen has never had the habit of giving himself a pseudonym since he was a child; he always uses his real name.

"Zhao Youshen? How come you and your sister have such different names?"

You Shen is You Shen. What does Zhao You Shen mean?
You Shen unconsciously frowned, and quickly realized that this must be because Lin Zhao's alias was Zhao, and they had deduced the name for themselves based on Lin Zhao's surname.

“We don’t share the same surname, and we are half-siblings.”

Why is Zhao Lin, who has a different father and mother, still trying so hard to find her second brother?
Feng Chenlan didn't quite understand the situation of the brother and sister. He only said that it was no wonder they didn't look alike before completing the registration for him: "With your Golden Core cultivation, you should be given the cultivation of a third-level official doctor. However, you have no military merits and were only specially approved to join the army by this general. Therefore, I can only give you the position of a second-level official doctor for the time being. This position is because Zhao Lin's military merits were overflowing and were allocated to you."

You Shen is neither here nor there.

After making these arrangements, the two, who were not good at communicating, headed together to where Feng Chenlan and Kong Nan were now living. When they arrived, they saw Kong Nan and Lin Zhao, who had regained their youthful appearance, playing chess.

When Lin Zhao saw the two of them arrive, he laughed and said, "Aunt Nan, my second brother is back, so I won't play with you anymore."

Kong Nan looked at the already decided game and twitched her lips: "You didn't play because you knew you were going to lose, didn't you?"

Lin Zhao laughed awkwardly but politely.

She had never practiced anything since she was a child, but she had never practiced chess. She inherited her father Lin Mang's chess skills, and the father and daughter had always been terrible at chess.

Lin Zhao is a bit better; she usually doesn't play if she's not good at it. Lin Mang, on the other hand, is the bane of the chess world. He's bad at chess but loves to play. Unfortunately, Lin Zhao is the only one in the entire Lin family whose skills are on par with his. So every time Lin Zhao comes home from Cloud Peak, she inevitably has to go toe-to-toe with her father in chess several times.

Seeing this chessboard now, Lin Zhao was reminded of the fear of being controlled by his father in those years. Now that he saw his savior had arrived, he absolutely refused to play chess.

You Shen glanced at the unfinished game, picked up a chess piece, weighed it in his hand, and asked Kong Nan with a smile, "I wonder if I could continue this game?"

Kong Nan glanced at You Shen and smiled, "Of course, Zhao's second brother."

You Shen placed the chess piece in a certain spot.

Lin Zhao exclaimed "Good!" at this move, saying that the situation had taken a dramatic turn for the better.

"I should have played it that way too," Lin Zhao muttered to herself.

Kong Nan glanced at her with amusement: "If it weren't for your second brother, would you have known about this mess? You silly girl."

Lin Zhao was speechless and could only look at Feng Chenlan beside him: "General, has my brother already joined the army?"

Feng Chenlan nodded.

Lin Zhao's eyes lit up, and then he said, "Please, General, let me speak with you in private."

Feng Chenlan glanced at Lin Zhao in surprise, but still nodded and walked out with Lin Zhao.

As soon as Lin Zhao went out, he set up a soundproof array and said seriously to Feng Chenlan, "Lord Feng, you don't know this, but my second brother has been adopted by a large family over the years and has developed a proud and arrogant temperament and a delicate body. So my parents asked me to temper his arrogance. After he joins the army, if you can use him, use him to your heart's content. If you can't use him, still use him to your heart's content. Don't worry, my second brother may not be good at anything else, but he is first-rate at protecting himself. No matter what mission you give him, he will not die."

Feng Chenlan: "?"

He had many questions in his mind, but when he thought about what You Shen had said about him and Zhao Lin not being biological siblings, he seemed to understand something.

After a series of intense internal struggles, Feng Chenlan decided to stand on Lin Zhao's side.

"Okay, I'll ask him to do the work if anything comes up. But you, so you're planning to take leave again? We're going to war with other dynasties in two months."

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhao gave a wry smile: "I originally planned to stay and train with them since I came back, but something suddenly happened at home. It's okay, I brought my second brother with me, right? My second brother represents me, he can definitely do it!"

Feng Chenlan's lips twitched: "Fine, but if you don't come back after the war starts, I can't protect you during the troop mobilization stage if you're not there."

Lin Zhao smiled and said, "Of course."
