Seeing the other party's obvious hostility, Lu Jin was not going to tolerate him. His tone gradually turned cold. Since he went down the mountain with his uncle to fight demons, he had been trying to make his mind clear in everything he did, and was no longer as conflicted as before.

"I've made some progress in my external martial arts training and would like to seek guidance from Young Master Lu."

Liu Deshui spoke frankly, his words tinged with a hint of shame:

"Over the years, I have often privately harbored resentment and hatred towards Master Zuo. There is even a little bit of hatred. People are bound to be trapped by things they cannot obtain in their youth, and how can a mere mortal like me be an exception?"

"Now that Master Zuo has passed away, my heart is still burdened with this unresolved issue. To be honest, I just wanted to beat you in front of him, but unfortunately, I no longer have the chance..."

"The birthday banquet ten years ago was slightly inferior. Over the past ten years, I have worked hard day and night without any slack, and I have been fortunate enough to make some progress. I can say that I have mastered several martial arts skills of Yanwu Hall, if not perfected."

Having said that, he assumed a fighting stance and declared war on Lu Jin: "I implore Young Master Lu, in consideration of our past friendship of sharing a bed, to have a friendly spar with me."

"Regardless of victory or defeat, I think I can resolve my inner conflict and have no more grievances against you or Master Zuo in the future."

However, looking into Liu Deshui's sharp eyes and the fighting spirit that was about to burst forth, Lu Jin realized that this guy was indeed troublesome. If he wanted to settle the score with him, at least blood would have to be drawn.

Thinking of this, he decisively declined:

“Brother Liu, I’m afraid I can’t comply. Today is my grandfather’s birthday banquet, and I don’t want to compete with you.”

"Oh? Are you scared?" Liu Deshui asked jokingly.

"That's it."

Lu Jin did not answer his question. She left those words behind, turned around, and started to leave the backyard.

"Could it be that the test back then was all a farce from beginning to end? Or was it a charade orchestrated by the Trinity Sect in collusion with your Lu family?"

"Lu Jin, answer me!"

The tall, slender figure in white robes walked further and further away, as if he hadn't heard a thing.

Liu Deshui clenched his fists, making a cracking sound, his eyes flashing with a fierce light, his words becoming increasingly offensive, almost a rebuke:

"Could it be that you, Lu Jin, and Sect Leader Zuo are both charlatans who deceive the world and steal fame?!"

"Why lie to me when we clearly planned this in secret!"

"clatter..."

Hearing the insults behind him, Lu Jin stopped in his tracks, and the entire world seemed to fall silent at that moment.

Did it work?

Liu Deshui's pupils contracted sharply, and a strange premonition made his blood boil.

He felt it was right; a battle of strife to prove one's path was about to begin, and he was overjoyed!

"boom--!"

A terrifying blue-white aura suddenly poured out of Lu Jin's body, instantly putting him into the second stage of reversal. His frosty hair fell to his shoulders, and the chilling aura and deadly pressure made Liu Deshui feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

"Go to hell! Don't you dare insult my mentor with that filthy mouth!"

Lu Jin turned around, his gaze icy. His flesh and blood resonated with the flow of Qi, creating a double rebirth that made him stand out.

Chapter 83 Reverse Life VS External Training

In the banquet hall, the people who were still chatting and laughing suddenly changed their expressions slightly, as they could feel the overflowing Qi from behind the Lu family mansion.

"Jin'er?"

Jiang Mo thought to himself, his gaze sweeping across the entire area. Sure enough, he couldn't see Lu Jin's figure. Despite the obstruction of multiple walls, he could still clearly sense the fluctuations belonging to Ni Sheng.

"Hey! What's going on in the backyard? Who's making such a commotion?" The Fire Virtue Sect Master exclaimed in surprise.

"Wait, where are Young Master Lu and Shui'er?!"

The head of Yanwu Hall was equally astonished. He looked around and indeed found neither his disciple nor Lu Jin in sight, and a bad premonition rose in his heart.

Faced with this unexpected situation, opinions varied. The sect leaders and patriarchs, unable to contain their curiosity, got up and went to the backyard to investigate, while the younger members at the neighboring tables clamored for them to follow.

"Lord Lu, come, let me help you."

Considering the old man's advanced age of ninety and his difficulty in walking, Jiang Mo reached out with his right hand to help the old man. As for the fight in the backyard, he was not worried that Lu Jin from the second layer would be injured.

"Hey, I'm really making a name for myself, having Master Jiang help me up."

The old man chuckled as he urged, "Come on, let's go take a look. I love seeing the youthful energy of young people."

......

backyard.

A layer of crimson protective energy ignited around Liu Deshui. He paced in circles, sizing up Lu Jin, explaining as he went:

“Young Master Lu, I had no choice. If I hadn’t tried today, I’m afraid I would have been haunted by this for the rest of my life. Please understand.”

Having known each other for many years, this was the first time he had ever seen Lu Jin so enraged; it was nothing short of terrifying.

"Come."

Lu Jin's response was only one word: he respected his opponent's request. His aura surged dramatically, and his entire being was enveloped in a blue and white aura, entering his peak state.

"Okay, I'm offended."

Liu Deshui's face was solemn. This inexplicable feeling of suffocation did not deter him; on the contrary, it made him even more convinced that he had made the right choice!

"call out--!"

The moment the pool water rippled, a dark shadow shot in like a cannonball, leaping up suddenly and slapping Lu Jin's throat with a sledgehammer as heavy as a thousand pounds.

"boom!"

Lu Jin raised his hand to block, but the vibration from his left arm couldn't shake his posture at all.

Liu Deshui frowned. This probing attack had no effect whatsoever. If it were a wall, it would have been blasted down long ago.

"boom!"

The next instant, Liu Deshui clearly saw Lu Jin's right fist gathering power to strike. The whistling force made him dare not underestimate it, and he quickly raised his hand to block it head-on.

Reverse Life VS Yan Wu's Martial Arts Training.

Two powerful forces erupted wildly, the red and blue energies vying for dominance.

Thanks to years of training, Liu Deshui's fists were large and thick, even more exaggerated than Lu Jin's, almost twice the size. However, in the contest, he was slightly at a disadvantage and could not hold his own.

"Oh!"

Lu Jin exerted his strength and forced Liu Deshui back more than ten steps.

"Crackling..."

The sound of shattering bricks suddenly rang out, and a tremendous burst of force made it difficult for Liu Deshui to control his body. His feet seemed to be rooted to the ground, cracking the soil deeply.

"Triple Rebirth, a peerless skill, truly lives up to its name..."

Liu Deshui's left hand was slightly numb from the shock, and he had mixed feelings. The terrifying impact had almost pushed him to his limit, but fortunately he was able to deflect it.

"Come again!"

He adjusted his breathing, took a deep breath, his entire body contracted, and stared intently at Lu Jin.

"Ugh——!"

Liu Deshui lowered his body slightly, his speed was terrifying, and he rammed into her with an Iron Mountain Lean.

"call out!"

Lu Jin dodged to the side and engaged in fierce combat with him. Every punch landed hard, blood splattered, and the scene from ten years ago was repeated.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The swift figures fought back and forth. By the time the others arrived, the battle had reached a fever pitch. Liu Deshui was panting heavily, cold sweat streaming down his face. Lu Jin pressed forward relentlessly, his attacks flowing like a torrent.

The head of Yanwu Hall was shocked and tried to stop them, but Jiang Mo stopped him.

"Young people are full of vigor and it's normal for them to be competitive. Let them try, otherwise they might develop some kind of obsession."

"This... sigh, Master Jiang, Lord Lu, I'm sorry for causing you trouble."

The head of Yanwu Hall said with self-reproach, "The alliance negotiations were going well today, but I wasn't paying attention and my disciple started fighting with the young master of the Lu family. Now I'm caught in the middle, and I'm in a dilemma."

"Oh! Not at all, this is exactly what makes it lively."

Grandpa Lu waved his hands repeatedly:

"Let this young man do whatever he wants. With the Celestial Master and Sect Leader Jiang here to back him up, how bad can things get?"

“Uncle, you’re adding fuel to the fire. Please forgive me, Master. I’ll reprimand Jin’er later. This is too rash.”

Lu Xuan hurriedly apologized to the head of Yanwu Hall.

"No, Brother Lu, what are you saying? Young Master Lu has a rare good temper in the industry. Please don't misunderstand. Maybe it was our Shui'er who caused trouble on her own. I'm so ashamed."

Just as they were yielding to each other, a dull thud came from not far away.

Lu Jin braced himself against Liu Deshui's Iron Mountain Lean, and due to the difference in weight, he staggered back several steps, but managed to withstand the attack.

"open!"

Liu Deshui gritted his teeth and roared angrily, like a wild bull out of control, using his elbows and shoulders as the points of impact, trying to make Lu Jin stiffen so that he could use his acupoint striking technique.

"boom--!"

Just as he was giving it his all, a sudden change occurred. The Qi on Lu Jin's body dimmed, but his senses became sharper and his limbs reacted faster.

Compared to the dazzling aura surrounding Liu Deshui, Lu Jin seemed to have reached the end of the competition and was about to be defeated.

Wang Ai, who was watching the game, leaned closer to Lü Ci, whose face was indifferent, and whispered, "Hey, Hedgehog, do you think Lu Jin is going to lose? I have a feeling it's going to be tough."

"Fatty, shut up and watch properly."

Lu Ci frowned and stopped. Both sides were going all out, and the outcome was in the blink of an eye. He didn't want to be distracted and miss this exciting moment.

"It's over." An elder had foreseen the outcome and knew what was going on.

The Fire Virtue Sect Master watched with great interest and asked Jiang Mo, "Young Master Lu, did you teach him this move, Sect Master Jiang?"

“He’s talented; I don’t need to teach him,” Jiang Mo said with a faint smile.

Feign weakness to the enemy, secretly amplify your five senses, seize their weakness, and strike decisively.

The scene of fighting the succubus was recreated, and Lu Jin performed it to an even higher level this time, with great skill.

"Woo!!!"

The air rattled and howled as Liu Deshui struck it, the force of the oncoming crushing blows was more ferocious than ever before.

"boom!"

Lu Jin arrived in an instant, his body tilting to the side and downwards. His left hand moved with lightning speed, pressing his five fingers hard into Liu Deshui's abdomen a second before he was knocked down.

At this crucial point, the slightest carelessness could result in serious injury or disability. Lu Jin was not blinded by anger. He held back nearly half of his strength and unleashed a burst of power.

“Puff…”

Liu Deshui's attack came to an abrupt halt, as if he had been electrocuted. His internal organs churned and he was in complete chaos. His Qi dissipated uncontrollably, and a sharp pain almost pierced through his body, as if he were about to explode.

He coughed up a mouthful of blood, his face turned deathly pale, and he staggered unsteadily, swaying from side to side.

His mind was in complete chaos. He couldn't understand how Lu Jin had dodged the attack; she was so agile it was almost unbelievable.

When the eyes catch the other person's movement, the pain instantly overwhelms the mind, leaving no room for reaction.

In a life-or-death struggle, this single blow would be enough to take his life.

Liu Deshui was defeated.

He was utterly defeated, even more humiliated than ten years ago. He knelt on the ground, his limbs convulsing, unable to rise. Crimson blood continued to spread, his expression bewildered, and he muttered intermittently:

"I'm sorry... Young Master Lu, I was being petty."

Lu Jin slowly dispelled the reversal state, her words cold and indifferent, showing no sympathy or pity for this self-inflicted wound.

"I didn't hit you hard; you just need to rest for a few days."

Chapter 84 Sudden mutation

The two men's sparring didn't seem to be a friendly exchange; it was entirely driven by personal grudges, leaving the guests bewildered.

As the final clash came to an end, Liu Deshui, an elite disciple of Yanwu Hall, suffered a crushing defeat. He tried to get up several times but could not muster any strength. His internal organs were damaged by the impact of the palm print. Although they were not shattered, the palm energy that burst out from his body had faintly broken his tendons. His whole body felt as if his spine had been removed, and he became limp.
