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

Holy crap!

"You dare hit Linglong?!"

At the Moon Gate in the backyard, Canglong saw Lu Linglong lying on the lawn covered in grass clippings, and his face twitched.

The two large bags of snacks in his arms fell to the ground, scattering potato chips everywhere, and he rushed out with heavy steps.

Xiao Xiao also abandoned his usual lazy demeanor, snapped his folding fan shut, and his eyes turned cold.

He took a half-step off the ground, and his true energy flowed from his arm to his palm, clearly preparing to make a move.

Wang Ergou pushed up his glasses, his hands hanging at his sides, his fingertips secretly forming a hand seal.

Several strangely colored wisps of energy flowed around his hand. He appeared calm, but his eyes had darkened.

Bai Shixue originally wanted to watch the excitement, but when she saw that Canglong was really going to charge, she immediately and cleverly stepped aside.

Zhi Jinhua stared at Lu Linglong for two seconds while holding her tablet, then frowned and reminded her, "Don't rush. Linglong's Qi is still stable; she doesn't seem injured, more like she's training."

Canglong wouldn't listen to a word, pointing at Lin Mo and shouting, "Training can send someone flying? Hua'er, don't stop me! Today I'm going to show this guy that Linglong isn't someone anyone can bully!"

Seeing the three men poised to fight to the death, Lin Mo stood in the middle of the lawn, his hands still in his tracksuit pockets, showing no sign of panic.

He first glanced at Lu Linglong on the ground, then looked down at his watch, his tone steady: "Miss Lu, a friendly reminder, there's one minute and thirty seconds left in the lesson. If it's interrupted by external forces, the time won't be extended."

Lu Linglong had just propped herself up when she heard these words and almost fell back down.

Her face was covered in mud, and her pink tracksuit was soaked with grass clippings. She gritted her teeth and glared at Lin Mo: "Shut up!"

After saying that, she quickly turned to look at Canglong and the others, raising her voice: "Fatty! Er Gou! Xiao Xiao! Don't do anything rash! I paid him 100,000 yuan to do special training for me!"

The backyard fell silent for a moment after those words were spoken.

Canglong abruptly stopped at the edge of the lawn, his feet carving two shallow furrows in the grass. He was completely stunned: "What did you say? You paid him to beat you up?"

Lu Linglong blushed and patted the mud off her sleeves to correct him, "It's special training, not hitting me!"

Lin Mo nodded in agreement: "Simply put, she paid me to beat her up, but not randomly."

"If it hurts where it should hurt, and the Qi pathways are clear where they should be clear, then I'll have to be responsible for after-sales service if I really damage it, which would be a loss."

Lu Linglong's forehead vein throbbed: "Can you please not make it sound so self-righteous about me getting beaten up?"

Bai Shixue's eyes lit up as she listened, and she exclaimed softly, "Wow, this person is even more professional than I am at business."

Zhi Jinhua pushed up her glasses, her gaze lingering on Lin Mo for a few seconds: "To be able to beat Linglong like this without damaging his foundation, his control is indeed very strong."

But Canglong couldn't suppress the fire in his heart.

He looked at Lu Linglong's disheveled state, then at Lin Mo standing there clean and tidy, and grew angrier the more he looked. He directly blocked Lu Linglong's path: "Even special training shouldn't be like this, right? You're a bodyguard, is it appropriate for you to use such force against your employer?"

Lin Mo thought about it carefully: "She requested more pressure, so I will implement it according to the payment standard."

"I didn't hit any vital points, left no hidden injuries, and even helped clear up a few obstructed energy channels. Judging from the result, it was quite suitable."

Zanglong was taken aback by these words, but his anger flared even more: "I don't care what you say, I'm going to avenge Linglong today. Hey, you bodyguard, do you dare to fight us?"

Xiao Xiao also took half a step forward and lightly tapped his folding fan in his palm: "Perfect, we also want to see just how capable the person the Lu family paid to hire for special training really is."

Wang Ergou snorted coldly: "If you're just using the contract to protect yourself from bullying Linglong, then you might need to reassess the level of the younger generation today."

The three people stood on either side of each other, seemingly serious, and the atmosphere by the lawn suddenly became tense.

Just as Lu Linglong was about to speak to stop them, Lin Mo slowly raised his head and glanced at them.

Then, he simply uttered two words: "No."

Canglong was stunned, Xiao Xiao was stunned, and Wang Ergou was also stunned.

The momentum that the group had just built up vanished like a punch into cotton, leaving the scene somewhat awkward.

Canglong laughed: "Hey, weren't you pretty tough when you were beating Linglong? Now that we're here, you're scared?"

Xiao Xiao narrowed his eyes: "Refusing to fight is not a good reputation, especially in front of your peers."

Wang Ergou also said coldly, "Or are you saying you only dare to make moves within the contract?"

Lin Mo's expression remained unchanged. He took out the small accounting notebook from his pocket, then pulled out a ballpoint pen and turned to a blank page.

"The three of you need to understand one thing first: you are not on my service list."

He tapped his notebook with his pen: "My job today is to protect Miss Lu, not to join you in a brawl. I can take on extra work, but not for free. In other words, if you want me to do unnecessary things..."

"You'll have to pay more."

Bai Shixue couldn't help but burst out laughing: "I knew it, this guy's ways of making money are even wilder than mine."

Canglong's eyelids twitched, feeling as if all his anger had been forced into the payment QR code.

He gritted his teeth and said, "I thought he was some kind of expert, but he's just a money-grubber!"

Lin Mo nodded, not denying it: "The assessment is basically accurate, but I suggest changing 'money-grubber' to 'legal worker'."

Canglong nearly choked. But the words had already been spoken, and Lu Linglong was still watching from behind. He wasn't short of money, so how could he possibly back out now?

He gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, money's not a problem. Name your price, and I'll pay today!"

Lin Mo's smile immediately became more genuine.

He looked down and wrote two lines in his notebook: "Since you want to fight me, let's just call it a regular sparring session. Ten thousand each."

"If the three of you come together, I'll give you a group discount price: 30,000."

Zanglong's eyes twitched, and he opened his mouth wide in disbelief: "Ten thousand per person? You're even more ruthless than robbing people."

Lin Mo showed his phone's QR code for receiving payments: "Robbing money is illegal, scanning a code is legal. You get the challenge experience, I get paid for my work, it's a win-win situation."

Xiao Xiao looked at Canglong, his fan pausing in his palm. He hesitated and said, "Fat Dragon, are you sure you still want to fight? Ten thousand per person is a bit expensive."

Bai Shixue chimed in from behind, "Fatty, you just said money wasn't an issue. Now if you don't pay, the issue isn't money, it's saving face."

Zanglong turned around and glared at her: "Stop gloating!"

Zhi Jinhua tapped a few times on the tablet and said seriously, "Judging from Linglong's condition just now, he does have teaching value. If 30,000 yuan can be exchanged for one effective practical experience, it's not a bad deal."

Canglong straightened his back immediately: "Did you hear that? Even the flowers say it's a good deal!"

After he finished speaking, he scanned the code with a dark expression, and his finger pressed harder when he entered the payment password.

He still stubbornly insisted, "It's only 30,000. I mainly wanted to get an explanation for Linglong, not to buy your course."

"Ding! 30000 yuan has been deposited into your Alipay account!"

A crisp notification sound rang out in the backyard.

Lin Mo's cold expression melted instantly, and his smile became as sincere as that of a five-star hotel lobby manager.

He deftly put away his phone and notebook, took a half step back, and politely gestured for them to proceed: "The boss is very generous. Since you've paid in full, the three of you are now temporary customers. Customer experience is our priority, so you can go first."

Zanglong's lips twitched violently: "Can you not change your expression so quickly?"

Lin Mo said naturally with a smile, "Before I take your money, you're just a passerby; after I take your money, you're a customer. Of course, the service attitude will be different."

Wang Ergou stepped forward, his body swirling with strangely colored energy: "Bodyguard, don't blame us if you get into trouble later."

Just as Xiao Xiao was about to suggest he test the waters first, Canglong objected: "I paid for it, so I should be the one to do the first thing!"

Before the two could reach a conclusion, Lu Linglong anxiously shouted, "Fatty! Xiao Xiao! Er Gou! Don't underestimate your opponent!"

Zang Long didn't turn around, and instead put on a very reliable look: "Linglong, don't worry, we know what we're doing, we won't really hurt him."

Lu Linglong stomped her feet in anger: "I told you not to get hurt by him! Lin Mo is really strong! He didn't just withstand a few of my moves, he sent me flying countless times just now!"

The three people paused, but their faces clearly showed they were still not entirely convinced.

In a moment of panic, Lu Linglong dropped the bombshell: "My cousin Lu Lin activated the Reverse Life Triple Stage, but he was instantly killed by a single kick in front of him! Even his Reverse Life state was forced back!"

The lawn fell silent instantly.

The anger on Canglong's face froze instantly, and half of the true qi he had just gathered leaked out.

Xiao Xiao almost dropped the fan in his hand, and Wang Ergou's hand seal stopped in mid-air. The look in his eyes behind his glasses had clearly changed.

They certainly knew what Lu Lin's importance was.

That was when he received personal instruction from Lu Jin, the head of the Lu family and one of the Ten Elders, who taught him the Three Ones Sect's unique skills that were on the verge of being lost.

The only inheritor of the Triple Rebirth Reversal!

Knowing this, I felt a chill run down my spine.

Zhi Jinhua's tablet slid down slightly, and she quickly caught it: "What? Brother Lin? He was defeated in one move?"

Bai Shixue rushed to Lu Linglong's side, grabbed her arm, and asked, "Really? You're not kidding us, are you?!"

Lu Linglong rubbed her numb arm and nodded irritably: "Absolutely authentic, Grandpa was right there watching."

hiss!

The members of the Lu family troupe all gasped in shock.

Xiao Xiao swallowed hard, then turned to look at Canglong with a resentful expression: "You fat dragon, you've really screwed us over this time."

"Uh...hehe..." Canglong was covered in cold sweat, his face contorted with pain, and he forced a dry laugh: "Um...I admit I was a little loud just now."

"Is it too late to regret it now?"

Bai Shixue crossed her arms and added, "Theoretically, it's possible, but judging from his style, the refund probably won't be complete."

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo immediately added, "A refund can be negotiated before it begins, but the contract preparation fee, emotional management fee, and payment channel handling fee will be deducted, totaling 30%."

Canglong's eyes widened: "You actually did that?"

Lin Mo said seriously, "Only with clear accounts can cooperation last."

A bead of cold sweat appeared on Wang Ergou's forehead.

He wiped his face with a handkerchief, took a deep breath, and his eyes became even sharper than before: "I've already paid the money, and now if I get a refund, they'll deduct 30%, so I can't just let it go to waste."

He lowered his voice and quickly made arrangements: "I'll test his reaction with magic first."

"Xiao Xiao, disrupt him from the side with your breath. Canglong, don't be reckless, use your size and Qi pressure to block his escape route. Don't think about winning, first find out his strength."

Zanglong's face turned pale, but he still nodded heavily: "Okay...done."

Lin Mo listened to their tactical discussion face-to-face without interrupting. He glanced at his watch, then turned to Lu Linglong and said, "Miss Lu, your lesson is over. Watching the rest of the match is free, but if you want me to provide post-match commentary, that's a separate charge."

Lu Linglong rubbed her arm and glared at him, "Don't try to take advantage of my situation! I'm not adding anything to my cart right now, you hear me? Not adding anything for now!"

Off the field, Zhi Jinhua looked at Lin Mo, her eyes flickering slightly, thinking to herself, "He has been in control the whole time, turning a potentially out-of-control conflict into a clearly defined paid sparring match."

In the center of the lawn, Wang Ergou stood still, colorful Qi slowly spreading out from his body.

Canglong stood to the left rear, his heavy true qi pressing down on the grass leaves slightly; Xiao Xiao stood to the right, half-hiding his folding fan, his breath beginning to gather in his chest.

Wang Ergou stared at Lin Mo's hands-in-pockets posture and asked coldly, "Are you sure you don't want to prepare before the three of us attack together?"

Lin Mo slowly pulled his right hand out of his pocket, his face still bearing that professional, gentle smile: "Taking your hand out could easily cause an accident. Since this is our first collaboration, I'll play it safe. Bosses, get ready and let's begin."

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Wang Ergou's eyes darkened, and he stomped his foot to charge forward, his hand seals suddenly changing: "Go!"

Canglong gritted his teeth and followed, his massive body pressing down from the left with the pressure of true qi.

Xiao Xiao took a step forward, half-covering his face with a folding fan, his chest already straining to exhale to the point of breaking his breath.

Faced with the encirclement of three young superhumans, Lin Mo merely raised his eyelids.

The next second, the colorful Qi threads at Wang Ergou's fingertips had already circled around to Lin Mo's eyes, like a thin mist, pressing down on his gaze.
