Under One Person: I, Jiaqian Jushi, work from nine to five.

Hearing his disciple still asking questions, the old master didn't say much. He raised his eyelids and casually flicked out two golden beams of light. These two beams of light were very fast and sent Rong Shan and Zhang Lingyu flying the moment they touched them.

"Uncle-Master..."

"Master!"

When the disciples arrived at the Celestial Master's Mansion, they saw Rong Shan and Zhang Lingyu fall from the high wall and hurriedly went over to ask them what was wrong.

"Uncle-Master... what's going on?"

"Never mind that, the water's too deep. You can't handle it. Go back and rest." Rong Shan rubbed his head, feeling a large bump on his forehead.

Zhang Lingyu, who was also thrown back, was now questioning his life.

He doesn't think he saw it wrong just now...

That person was Zhou Fengliu.

But...

Why was Zhou Fengliu able to fight Lu Jin so badly?

Chapter 87: Did Lu Jin Get a Big Taunt? (Second Update)

Zhang Lingyu didn't understand, but she was deeply shocked.

...

Inside the courtyard, the old master, who had just knocked away two of his disciples, turned his attention back to the battle before him.

At this moment, the old celestial master was surprised by the Qi within the young man's body.

How big must one's dantian be to hold so much qi...?

As far as the eye could see, Lu Jin, who had been releasing talismans at a high intensity and in rapid succession, was already panting heavily, while Zhou Fengliu in the distance seemed completely unaffected, continuing his high-speed Qi blade slashing...

"Senior Lu... let's just forget about it. It's just a fight, there's no need to make such a big fuss. This isn't guidance, you're trying to paralyze me. I'll just admit defeat, okay?"

Zhou Fengliu remarked that these ten elders were different from the younger generation; they could block attacks at this frequency. If it were Jia Zhengliang, he would have been sliced ​​into mincemeat long ago.

"You think you're so tough? You were pretty good when you slapped my great-granddaughter... What? You're not good enough now?" Lu Jin was still stubborn, determined to deflate Zhou Fengliu's arrogance tonight.

"Senior Lu... if you're going to do it this way, don't blame me for being impolite."

"You brat...when have you ever been polite?!"

"Row."

Seeing this, Zhou Fengliu also decided not to fight Lu Jin anymore.

No need, really no need, no need to expose all his strength for a private fight, he needs to keep his underwear hidden.

Moreover, Lu Jin didn't fight seriously; he didn't even use the Reverse Life Triple Technique, relying solely on talismans to bombard him.

"Since Senior Lu is not going to let this junior off the hook, then don't blame this junior for being uncivilized!"

As Zhou Fengliu spoke, he used the technique of transforming Qi into a horse to conjure a Qi blade out of thin air, and then began to activate the skill of "100% chance of catching a blade barehanded".

next second.

Lu Jin, who was still bombarding Zhou Fengliu with attacks, suddenly appeared before him, kneeling to receive the sword...

"When?" Lu Jin was stunned. He hadn't even realized he was under Zhou Fengliu's blade.

Zhou Fengliu hadn't realized that Lu Jin was already under his blade. His left hand was still in the swinging motion, releasing Qi Blade. With this swing, he hit Lu Jin's face.

From the side, their positioning made it seem as if he had put Lu Jin in a very difficult position...

"Senior Lu..." Zhou Fengliu swallowed hard when he realized that he had "accidentally" slapped Lu Jin.

"I said...it was an accident, would you believe me?"

At this moment, Lu Jin, having been hit by Zhou Fengliu, slowly stood up. He looked at Zhou Fengliu, then touched his right cheek and asked:

"You little rascal...you're really not being polite."

"You're right... don't be so polite," Zhou Fengliu said.

"Okay, okay..." As Lu Jin spoke, her skin gradually turned white, and even her eyes began to turn white, like an albino patient.

Seeing Lu Jin's expression, Zhou Fengliu knew that this was serious.

Even with all that fighting just now, he couldn't force out Lu Jin's Reverse Life Triple Technique, but now he's been forced out with just a light tap.

"Senior Lu...look, you're in such a hurry again. Let me explain..."

"Your sudden appearance under my blade was also an unconscious act on my part."

Seeing that Lu Jin looked like he was about to slap him if he didn't listen, Zhou Fengliu could only sigh and then said to the old celestial master in the distance:

"Old Celestial Master, you've been watching all night, aren't you going to do anything about it... I admit there are some conflicts and misunderstandings between me and Zhang Lingyu, but it's not enough to make you stand by and watch him die."

"Alright, Lao Lu."

The old master seemed to have confirmed Zhou Fengliu's strength before telling Lu Jin to stop.

"Old Master... that's not fair of you. You only told him to stop after he slapped me..." Lu Jin said that after fighting with Zhou Fengliu that night, his anger hadn't subsided but had actually grown stronger.

“Old Lu, my eyes are like a ruler… You were the one who ran under someone’s sword and got touched, how can you say he slapped you?” the old master said.

"Huh?" Upon hearing this, Lu Jin looked closely at the old master's eyes: "Old master... your eyes are so small, they're not even as big as mine, how can they be a ruler?"

"..." The old master was silent for a second upon hearing this, then gave Lu Jin a look that said "figure it out yourself." Lu Jin shook his head and released the triple reversal state.

After comforting Lu Jin, the old master turned his gaze to Zhou Fengliu.

"Young man, tomorrow's match against Lingyu..."

Upon hearing the old master mention the competition, Zhou Fengliu raised an eyebrow slightly. He then recalled being invited out by Lu Jin that evening and asked:

"Old Celestial Master, you wouldn't be trying to make me lose to Zhang Lingyu, would you?"

"If that's the case... you really don't need to go to such lengths. I'm not that interested in the Celestial Master's successor or the Heavenly Talisman. I'm only here because of a company assignment—to sweep the floor for Zhang Chulan..."

"If you want me to lose to Zhang Lingyu, just say so and give me a little money... As long as the money is right, I don't even have to show up tomorrow... There's no need to use Senior Lu to give me a hard time."

Having read the plot, Zhou Fengliu knew very well that this Luo Tian Grand Ceremony was a stage set up by the Old Celestial Master, and it was all an inside story. Since he wasn't interested in the Celestial Master's position or the Tongtian Talisman, he could simply go along with it and send Zhang Lingyu up to fight Zhang Chulan, knowing that Zhang Chulan would win anyway.

As for the prize money from the company for the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony rankings... as long as the Old Master gives enough, it doesn't matter... we're already in the semi-finals, so it won't make much difference. Plus, we'll have the Old Master's favor to do us a favor. It's a win-win situation no matter how you look at it.

"Is that what you think?"

Hearing Zhou Fengliu's thoughts, the old master smiled and said, "Old Lu is going to beat you up tonight, but it's not because I let him. He's been holding back for days."

"In tomorrow's match... I don't want you to hold back either. Just play to your strength. If Zhang Lingyu loses, it's because he's not as skilled as others... He can't blame anyone else."

What the old master said next was something Zhou Fengliu hadn't expected.

"Master Celestial Master...you stayed up all night just to tell me this?"

"Of course, it's not just that. I also want to see just how deep your water is... Just think of it as this old man having some selfish motives, wanting to see a great match," the old master said slowly.

"..."

Hearing this, Zhou Fengliu felt a little disappointed for some reason.

I didn't earn any extra money... and I wasted a whole night.

blood loss.

...

After a moment.

Zhou Fengliu is gone.

Looking in the direction Zhou Fengliu had left, the old celestial master asked Lu Jin beside him, "Old Lu, do you think Ling Yu can defeat him?"

Upon hearing this question, Lu Jin didn't hesitate and replied bluntly, "Probably not... This kid is incredibly strange; I'm afraid even I won't be able to take him down in a short time..."

Chapter 88 The Battle of Oscars! (Bonus Chapter)

"Where did that kid come from? The methods he used were very basic, but they were strange in a way..." Lu Jin commented on his recent exchange with Zhou Fengliu.

"Old Celestial Master, did you see that clearly just now...? That kid used some kind of evil method; I appeared under his sword in the blink of an eye..."

Lu Jin described it to the old master in vivid detail.

Hearing Lu Jin's words, the old Celestial Master shook his head with his hands behind his back and sighed, "The older ones are all more competitive than the last, while the younger ones are all more adept at hiding their true intentions..."

"OK..."

He said this and walked away into the distance.

"Old Master...where are you going?" Lu Jin asked.

"Go back to sleep..."

The old master's voice faded into the distance, leaving Lu Jin to survey the messy courtyard in the cold night wind, his mind replaying the battle with Zhou Fengliu.

Although neither he nor Zhou Fengliu used their full strength, it is undeniable that this battle was still of considerable value.

This junior has the right to be arrogant.
