One person: Lu family bodyguard, who shattered Longhu Mountain with a single palm strike.

In the study on the second floor of the Lu family home, Lu Jin pushed a black bank card in front of Lu Lin.

The tea on the table was still steaming, but the old man's tone was very decisive: "Starting tomorrow, don't make any random arrangements in the morning. Go find Lin Mo."

Lu Lin looked down at the card, momentarily stunned: "Grandpa, you really want me to use this to swipe?"

"Nonsense." Lu Jin glanced at him. "You think I gave you the card so you could buy milk tea?"

He put down his teacup, his expression becoming more serious: "The path of reversing the third level of life is not easy. At the later stages, hard work alone isn't enough; you also need someone to wake you up. If Lin Mo is willing to take the money, then we'll pay him. If he wants to raise the price, as long as it's not excessive, we'll pay him too."

Lu Lin gripped the black card tightly, feeling a surge of warmth in her heart.

He knew that his grandfather wasn't worried about the money, but rather that he saw hope for the Triple Rebirth to continue moving forward.

Lu Jin added, "Don't try to tough it out when you're being hit. If things get really bad, call for a stop. That kid is steady, but you need to be aware of that."

Lu Lin nodded emphatically: "Don't worry, Grandpa. Lin Mo really does hit people when he's paid, but he's also very steady in his attacks."

……

The next morning, at 8:59.

At the entrance of the main restaurant of the Lu family mansion, Lin Mo, dressed in a sharp black suit, stood outside, holding two large meat buns in one hand, staring at the ten-yuan digital watch on his left wrist. The restaurant was steaming hot inside, but he stubbornly refused to step inside.

Lu Linglong sat at the dining table, biting her milk straw, her lips twitching as she watched: "Lin Mo, are you really that short of a few seconds?"

Lin Mo didn't even look up: "Miss Lu, professional boundaries must be observed in the details. It's 8:59:46 now, and I'm still in my personal state."

Lu Linglong rolled her eyes: "You're in your private life, and you're still using our two little buns?"

"This is an extension of the employee benefits given to us by the cafeteria staff before we left work last night," Lin Mo said calmly. "It's not part of today's work."

"Beep beep beep—"

Nine o'clock sharp.

As Lin Mo stepped into the restaurant, the familiar system notification sound rang in his mind right on time.

[Ding! Host detected that they have entered work mode on time. Work attendance successfully completed.]

His casual expression vanished instantly, replaced by a standard professional smile: "Good morning, Ms. Lu."

After saying that, Lin Mo pulled out a chair, sat down, and took a big bite of half of the meat bun, eating with great relish.

Looking at his seamless switching between different tasks, Lu Linglong suddenly felt that this person would eventually master the art of "going to work".

"Ta-da!"

A series of hurried footsteps came from the stairwell.

Lu Lin, dressed in a brand-new white cotton training uniform, with a few bloodshot eyes from excitement, sat down directly opposite Lin Mo.

Lin Mo swallowed the steamed bun and glanced at him: "The breathing adjustment last night was quite effective. My shoulders and back are relaxed, my breathing is deeper, and the Qi on my body surface is more stable than yesterday."

Lu Lin's eyes lit up: "You figured it out?"

Without wasting words, he slammed the black bank card onto the table: "Lin Mo, let's discuss something. Starting today, I'd like to book your morning sparring sessions on a long-term basis. Grandpa said that as long as it's effective, you can use this card as you please."

Upon hearing the keywords "long-term," "black card," "the great-grandfather's words," and "swipe as you please," Lin Mo immediately put down the steamed bun in his hand.

He pulled out a napkin to wipe his mouth, his smile becoming warm and sincere: "As expected of Young Master Lu, and Old Master Lu is also very generous."

Lin Mo immediately took out his phone, opened the notes app, and quickly typed a few lines.

He then pushed his phone in front of Lu Lin and began to explain: "Since she is a long-term client, we need to go for a customized approach."

"Basic sparring, 1,000 per hour. Mainly responsible for routine offensive and defensive drills and pressure training, focusing on improving muscle tone and blood circulation."

"Intensive unblocking, 3,000 per hour. I will help you break down the blockages in your Qi pathways. Side effects include temporary numbness, side stitches, leg weakness, localized bruising, and doubting whether you are really a genius."

"Specialized tutoring for overcoming adversity is offered on a per-session basis, starting at 10,000 yuan. The specific price depends on the difficulty of the challenge, the level of risk, and the mental stress I experience."

Lin Mo paused, then added, "Also, damage to the house, lawn maintenance, and medical expenses cannot be attributed to me. If Elder Lu is personally present, I will assume that I am entering a high-pressure teaching environment, and the risks will be reassessed if necessary."

Lu Lin spent the whole night adjusting her breathing, so she knew best whether those few slaps were effective or not.

Several energy channels that had been blocked in his shoulders and back for a long time were now noticeably loosened, and he didn't hesitate at all: "No problem, second gear today."

Lu Linglong, standing next to her, nearly choked on her milk: "Three thousand an hour? Are you robbing me?"

She pointed to the package list on her phone, finding it increasingly outrageous: "I can accept being a sparring partner, but do you really think you're a high-end personal trainer? Specialized courses starting at over ten thousand? If my grandpa were watching, would you charge admission?"

Lin Mo turned to look at her, his tone calm: "Hey, Miss Lu, robbing is illegal. But I'm offering clearly marked prices, fair and honest."

He added earnestly, "Of course, for the sake of our friendship, Ms. Lu can observe for free. However, if you shout and disrupt the teaching, a noise disturbance fee will be charged separately."

Lu Linglong rolled her eyes in exasperation and remained silent for a long time.

Just then, Lin Mo's phone, which was on the table, vibrated. The message was from Xu Xiang.

[Xu Xiang, the high-salary backup client: Brother Lin, the rune test results from the chemical plant came back last night, and it's definitely related to Quanxing. There might be a second site tonight, the risk is a bit higher than last time, but the price is negotiable.]

Lin Mo's eyes lit up noticeably when he saw the words "price negotiable".

High risk?

That's called high-salary performance.

He opened the calendar and glanced at today's schedule.

In the morning, Lu Lin will strengthen traffic control; in the afternoon, she will maintain normal security; and in the evening, if the price is right, she can take on Xu Xiang's outsourced investigations. She also needs to reserve time for dinner, shower, and sleep.

Lu Linglong leaned over for a glance and immediately became even more annoyed: "Lin Mo, how come your schedule is fuller than my great-grandfather's, when you're just a bodyguard with a fixed salary?"

Lin Mo didn't even look up: "I'm an excellent working person who has transcended low-level interests. Time management is a required course for a beast of burden like me."

After saying that, he switched back to WeChat and replied with a message.

[Lin Mo: Mr. Xu, the risk has increased, so the price must be increased accordingly. Let's discuss this in detail after get off work. Advance payment is preferred. I can eat at my employer's place, but I absolutely cannot be taken advantage of.]

After sending the message, Lin Mo placed his phone face down on the table.

It's working hours now, and there's a paying customer waiting to be beaten up this morning.

Meanwhile, Xu Xiang, on the other side, had a strange expression after seeing the reply on his phone.

He couldn't utter a single word for a long time.

……

10:00 AM.

The martial arts training ground in the backyard of the Lu family.

The sunlight fell on the lawn, making the air feel a bit hot.

Lin Mo stood on the sidelines holding his phone, his tone very formal: "Young Master Lu, just to confirm, today's course is intensive dredging, costing three thousand per hour. If the course ends early due to personal reasons after it has started, there will be no refund."

Without saying a word, Lu Lin scanned the code directly.

"WeChat payment received: 3,000 yuan."

As soon as the crisp notification sound rang out, Lin Mo's entire demeanor changed.

Just a moment ago he was like a shrewd, calculating office worker, but now his eyes darken and he immediately switches into professional mode.

"Young Master Lu is straightforward. Come on, stand up straight and circulate your Qi."

Lu Lin took a deep breath, and pale white true qi rose instantly, fully activating the first level of the Reverse Life Triple Realm.

The layer of white qi covering his body was more solid and stable than yesterday.

Lin Mo walked half a circle around him, stepped forward, and placed one hand on Lu Lin's wrist.

A tiny wisp of internal energy probed into the fingertip and then quickly withdrew.

He gently tapped Lu Lin's shoulder, lower back, and outside her knees with two fingers a few times: "Does it hurt?"

Lu Lin gritted her teeth: "It aches and feels a bit congested."

"Yesterday's foundation was good." Lin Mo withdrew his hand, "but the three deep areas of Jianjing, Mingmen, and the outer knee are still stiff. Today, we'll focus on these three areas."

After he finished speaking, he looked up at Lu Lin and said, "Just a heads up, it hurts more today than yesterday."

Lu Lin's eyes lit up: "Come on!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed forward. Lin Mo flicked his toes, activated his Divine Speed ​​Transformation, and instantly disappeared from his original spot.

This time, instead of slapping someone away like before, he stealthily approached Lu Lin's side.

A faint bluish-black tinge appeared on his palm as he activated his Iron Palm Technique, compressing his centuries-old, refined internal energy into an extremely fine strand.

"Bang!"

The first palm strike landed precisely on Lu Lin's right shoulder well acupoint. The force wasn't great, but the sound was muffled, and that wisp of internal energy instantly penetrated the stagnant Qi pathway.

"hiss--"

Lu Lin felt numb on one side of her body, and the white aura around her body swayed violently.

"Don't inhale!" Lin Mo's voice rang close to my ear. "Gather your Qi, press it down to your shoulder well, hold it. If you let it dissipate now, the three thousand yuan you just spent will have been wasted."

Upon hearing "three thousand dollars wasted," Lu Lin gritted her teeth and pulled back her dissipating true qi.

Lin Mo's figure flashed again.

"Bang!"

The second strike targets the vital point (Mingmen).

Lu Lin's legs went weak, and he almost knelt down. But just as he was about to give up, Lin Mo's third palm struck outside his knee, directly guiding the chaotic Qi back onto the correct path.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

One palm strike after another, Lin Mo's attacks were never heavy, yet they were incredibly cunning. Each strike seemed to be pre-calculated, specifically targeting the most vulnerable spot in Lu Lin's vital energy transition.

Under the parasol at the edge of the lawn, Lu Linglong held a chilled watermelon juice, her forehead covered in sweat.

She originally thought Lin Mo was all about brute force, but today she realized that what was truly frightening about him wasn't his strength, but his control over his power.

Under a large tree not far away, Lu Jin stood with his hands behind his back, accompanied by his butler.

The old man originally just came to take a look, but as he looked around, his expression changed.

The butler whispered, "Master..."

Lu Jin didn't speak, but stared intently at Lin Mo's palm technique.

Lin Mo may not understand the Triple Reversal of Life, but he can see where Lu Lin's Qi is stagnant, weak, or unable to hold on each time she circulates it, and then he can pinpoint those spots precisely.

This is not random hitting.

This is gradually smoothing out Lu Lin's Qi pathways.

On the training ground, Lin Mo looked at Lu Lin, who was covered in sweat, and nodded: "Increase the pressure by one level, the last ten minutes."

The bluish-black color on his palm deepened, and his figure blurred into afterimages.

Jianjing (GB21), Mingmen (GV4), outside the right knee, below the left rib, the third vertebra of the spine, and slightly below the chest.

Six consecutive palm strikes fell like a sudden storm.

"Bang bang bang bang bang bang!"

With the final palm strike, Lu Lin was forced back four or five steps, his legs buckled, and he knelt on one knee on the lawn. But in that instant, the pale white true qi that had been violently fluctuating on his body suddenly contracted inward.

The next second, the white qi became incredibly pure, and a nearly transparent film condensed on the body surface.

Its radiance is restrained, its aura harmonious and balanced.

Although the thin film only lasted for half a breath before dissipating, Lu Jin, standing under the tree, suddenly felt his pupils shrink.

"The second layer of prototype..."

Lu Jin clenched her fists instinctively.

Given Lu Lin's original pace, it would have taken her at least a while longer to reach this stage.

But now, Lin Mo's single lesson has actually broken through that barrier.

"Beep beep beep—"

The alarm clock in Lin Mo's pocket rang on time.

It's exactly 11 o'clock.

He instantly withdrew his inner force, the bluish-black color in his palm faded, and the focused expression on his face instantly returned to a professional smile.

"get out of class dismissed. Today's intensive dredging service has come to an end."

Lu Lin knelt on the lawn, panting heavily, her whole body soaked in sweat.

But he couldn't suppress the excitement in his eyes, and his fingers trembled as he took out his phone and transferred the money directly.

"WeChat payment received: 2,000 yuan."

Looking at the payment notification, Lin Mo smiled warmly: "Lu Lin, you have good comprehension. At this rate, if you take this package three to five more times, along with one specialized tutoring session, you'll definitely be able to cross the threshold to the second level."

Lu Lin tried to stand up, but was interrupted by a steady footstep.

Lu Jin walked over and placed her hand on his shoulder: "Rest properly and don't move around."

Lu Lin immediately shut up and obediently steadied her breathing. Lu Linglong also came over, staring blankly at the white aura that had not completely dissipated from Lu Lin's body.

Lu Jin turned to look at Lin Mo, his expression serious: "Lin boy, how did you figure out those few strikes just now?"

Lin Mo blinked: "What does Elder Lu mean?"

"Stop playing dumb." Lu Jin stared at him. "Jianjing, Mingmen, the outer knee, and those other places. How do you know those are the points where Lu Lin's Qi circulation is blocked?"

Lin Mo shrugged, his tone sincere: "Elder Lu, I really haven't learned how to reverse life."

Lu Jin frowned, clearly disbelieving.

Lin Mo had no choice but to continue explaining: "I don't understand your San Yi Sect's techniques, but I can tell where Lu Shao is blocked, weak, and straining when he's circulating his Qi. If I had to put it in a way, it's because he has a lot of work experience and is good at observing customers' pain points."

Lu Linglong, who was standing next to her, twitched at the corner of her mouth.

Customer pain points?

You call the threshold of the second level of the triple rebirth a customer pain point?

Lu Jin remained silent for a moment, then withdrew his imposing aura. When he spoke again, his tone was lower and much more serious than before.

"If I want you to help him break through this barrier and completely advance to the second level..."

Lu Jin asked, enunciating each word clearly, "How much?"

……
