Trinity Traitor: From One Person to the Other

Chapter 1065 Lu Lin
"Alright then, you... be careful, Elder Lu only has you as his successor."

Before the security captain could finish speaking, the young man had already floated onto the stage and stood opposite He Songling.

"Oh, so the second strongest one has arrived." He Songling wasn't deaf; he had obviously heard what the security captain had said to this young man. "The successor of Elder Lu, who? Lu Jin? Does Lu Jin have disciples? Or are you a member of the Lu family?"

"Lu Lin, deputy captain of the security team at Trinity University."

The young man who jumped up gave a slight bow. He never flaunted his family background, but when he did mention it, he didn't hide it. His main point was to be neither arrogant nor humble, and not to be burdened by empty fame.

"You are Lu Lin." He Songling glanced at Lu Jin below the stage. This doesn't make sense. In the original story, the San Yi Sect was destroyed, and the Reverse Life Triple Technique was on the verge of being lost. Lu Jin couldn't find anyone else, so he had no choice but to find a talented person from his own family to teach him.

How did Lu Lin end up in this life too?
You, Lu Jin, are not being honest!
"This kid was enlightened by our senior brother." Lu Jin was a little embarrassed and quickly explained.

"Senior Brother? How old is this kid? Senior Brother is already old enough to give him his first enlightenment?" He Songling was a little shocked. People with high cultivation levels generally have long lifespans, but those who can live to the age of Zhang Zhiwei and Lu Jin, over 110 years old, are ultimately a minority.

Most of them died around the age of ninety, and some even younger, such as Wang Ai and Lü Ci's father, who died before they were eighty. This is all quite normal. The previous Celestial Master also lived to be less than ninety.

He Songling remembered that Chengzhen was born in 1889, the same year as Old Man Taborna, both born in the 1980s. Although one was born in 1981 and the other in 1989, at the beginning and end of the year, to him, a person born in the 2000s, they were of course from the previous generation. If Zuo Ruotong hadn't insisted on taking all his disciples himself, in the Tang Clan back then, this would have meant two generations.

"Are you out of your mind? Not all extraordinary people can live this long, but after practicing the immortal techniques you personally passed down, do you think they all have to die young?"

Lu Jin said with a dark face, "Our senior brother lived to be 106 years old before passing away. Xiao Lin was born in 1984, so she was already 11 when our senior brother passed away! Speaking of which, this kid has quite a talent. Back then, our senior brother was just teasing him and casually activated the Reverse Life Technique, and this kid actually mastered it."

The eldest brother, seeing an opportunity, was eager to teach him and immediately began his formal education. After that, he handed the boy over to me. The kid was only six years old at the time, so how could I not teach him and let him ruin his life? That's how I taught him. My senior brothers Shuiyun and Changqing, as well as junior brother Zhuge, also gave him some pointers along the way.

"Two people born in the 80s have gotten together." He Songling curled his lips. "So many people have taught them together, and they still haven't reached the third level or opened the Xuan Gate? Old Lu, I'm not trying to criticize you, but those few good-for-nothings are one thing, but you... never mind, you're the worst teacher, you're just wasting the kids' time."

"Hey you..." Lu Jin wanted to curse, but he didn't know what to say. After all, just a few months ago, he had cursed his grandson, Lu Lin's father, in the same way at home.

"Bang bang!"

As they were talking, He Songling had already received several punches and kicks from Lu Lin, whose entire body had turned white.

Putting aside other things, this kid normally looks like an average handsome young man, but with the "Reverse Life" ability, his appearance is truly passable. Judging by looks alone, ignoring temperament, he's no less handsome than Zuo Ruotong, and even slightly inferior to his great-grandfather Lu Jin. Of course, compared to He Songling himself, he's still a step below.

“But then again, it seems like all you have left is your appearance.” He Songling pushed Lu Lin more than ten meters away and shook his head regretfully: “How did Lu Jin’s descendant become such a pretty face?”

“My friend, I know you are very strong, and I, Lu Lin, am no match for you. But my skills were taught to me by several elders, and I will not allow you to defile them.”

Lu Lin narrowed her eyes, her anger rising. Just as Lu Jin said, he was essentially taught by Cheng Zhen, and from a young age, he was taught by Lu Jin, Chang Qing, Shui Yun, Zhuge Yuan, and other elders. It was one thing for him to insult her great-grandfather, but how could those grandmasters tolerate such arrogant words from him?

At that moment, Lu Jin happened to use his Mind Control Technique to examine Lu Lin's thoughts, because he was very satisfied with his descendant's character and answer. Little did he know that he would hear such a thought from him.

What do you mean by "it's okay to insult me"? Why should it be okay to insult me?
"Senior brother, give this kid a good beating, just leave him alive," Lu Jin said viciously.

"Since you've put it that way..." He Songling chuckled, "then of course I have to fight him to a standstill!"

"Are you crazy?" Lu Jin knew this guy wasn't a decent person, but she never expected someone to deliberately bully noobs just to annoy her.

"Hey, what kind of person do you think your senior brother is!" He Songling said righteously, "I knew that kid Zhuge Yuan was coming soon. Perfect, after I beat him up, I won't beat up anyone else. I'll let Xiao Ding and Xiao Na practice their skills."

"You want those two youngsters to fight Zhuge Yuan?"

Lu Jin was taken aback: "Junior Brother Zhuge is the principal now. He won't act like you, casually going out to fight people, especially someone like you who gathered a group to storm the gates of Sanyi University and injured quite a few students. He'll definitely take you down immediately. Can Xiao Ding and Xiao Na handle that?"

It wasn't that Lu Jin looked down on these two; their strength had indeed surpassed his own. In terms of strength, even if he possessed a bug-level technique like the third level of Reverse Life, he would still be almost certain to lose to them. When the two joined forces, they were unstoppable.

The problem is, they're not going to fight you alone.

"Hey, that was their problem. If they wanted to take down Zhang Zhiwei, couldn't they fight against overwhelming odds?" He Songling didn't care whether these two lived or died. Anyway, the world mark had already been placed on them. Even if they were killed, their true spirits would just return to their own world, and then he would resurrect them.

"I'm telling you, this is already considered a bargain for them. Otherwise, I would have made them take on a whole group by themselves."

"You really do this kind of thing." Lu Jin gave a thumbs up, thankful that he had started cultivating with He Songling early on. Back then, He Songling was busy finding a way to break through to the third level and didn't have time to mess with him, otherwise... heh.

In the blink of an eye, He Songling had already exchanged more than a dozen moves with Lu Lin.

This kid has really learned well; he's far superior to the original character. Besides reaching the late stage of the second level of cultivation, he's also mastered sword energy, magic, and other methods to supplement damage and ranged attacks. His lightness skill is also incredibly unpredictable.

It seems that, apart from not being very proficient in Qimen Dunjia, he has basically mastered everything he left behind. Not to mention his practical experience in combat and Taoist arts at Trinity University, as well as his weapon-making skills at the College of Engineering.

With this overall strength, defeating Lu Jin from the original story wouldn't be a problem.
