Send Zhou Xin In

Amidst the struggle for proximity to the order of events, various incidents unfold.

There were those who fought hard for a spot, those who were eager to participate, those whose labs were raided, and those who were recuperating in hospitals.

Even though Luo Tianming had his own plans, and Professor Luo Hui Zuo Jin with all his might, by the time Zhou Yueyan took away Luo Zhong's head, Professor Luo Hui was no longer able to resist.

His secret chamber was lost; some related documents were searched, and even the head inside was temporarily sealed away.

Luo Hui somewhat regretted that he needed to recuperate for Ren Yisheng recently.

If Ren Sheng hadn't Ren Yisheng to his lab for treatment, Professor Luo Hui felt he would have definitely granted Luo Chong's request to leave the dark room and placed him among the specimens in the lab's bottles and jars.

Only Luo Zhong's head specimen remained in the small dark room, which was undoubtedly too conspicuous and was noticed and taken away by Zhou Yueyan.

"This is absolutely outrageous!"

Despite receiving treatment with the X432 repair device, Professor Luo Hui still harbored deep resentment.

After he woke up, he couldn't help but complain.

The X432 repair device is effective in treating psychological trauma; most people would fall into a deep sleep after lying in it, but Professor Luo Hui had nightmares for 24 hours straight.

He walked out of the treatment pod in a sullen mood, touched his head which still ached slightly, and felt that he was the victim.

He was beaten by Ren Yisheng, had to compensate the Ren Household, had his own laboratory demolished, and most importantly, Luo Zhong's head was taken away by Zhou Yueyan as an experimental specimen.

Given all these problems, Professor Luo Hui could hardly see anything that made him feel at ease.

"Hello, Dad..."

"This is outrageous! Luo Hui, you piece of trash!"

The brain damage inflicted by Ren Yisheng was significant, and the injuries to Zuo Quan and Zuo Jin also caused Luo Hui some trouble.

Zuo Quan and Zuo Jin were not particularly strong, but they had a lot of underhanded tricks for self-defense. In addition, Professor Luo Hui had problems with his brain, so he suffered some losses when he injured the two of them. By the time the committee finished inspecting the laboratory, Professor Luo Hui could hardly continue.

Only after completing his reconstructive treatment did he have the energy to communicate with Luo Tianming.

As expected, a scolding came, and Professor Luo Hui had no choice but to listen obediently.

He could only be thankful that Luo Tianming wasn't around, otherwise he would have been beaten up.

The distance in communication seemed to diminish Luo Tianming's authority. Professor Luo Hui remained obedient while listening to the lecture, but a hint of gleam appeared in his eyes.

"We must get it back!" Luo Tianming roared in a low voice. "We haven't fully utilized it yet. We can only discard it after we've used it all. We can endure this for a long time!"

Compared to Luo Zhong, Luo Tianming and others have physical bodies and can breathe freely in the outside world, while Luo Zhong can only live in darkness year-round. Even when they let him out, it's only by allowing him to see the light in the laboratory.

Luo Tianming believed that if he could endure this for years, he wouldn't be able to hold out until Luo Zhong revealed everything to him.

They don't seek to completely replicate Luo Zhong's invincible strength from back then; their greatest achievement would simply be to remain clear-headed under adverse conditions, just like Luo Zhong.

This is especially true for people like Luo Tianming who are entering their twilight years.

"But that's the Zhou Household!" Professor Luo Hui replied in a muffled voice.

"I don't care about the Zhou Household or anything Zhou Household, you have to handle this properly," Luo Tianming retorted arrogantly, before calming down and saying, "We'll create a scene at the Mu Nian Mansion to try and get Zhou Xin in as soon as possible. By then, you shouldn't be afraid of Zhou Rihui and Zhou Yueyan anymore!"

"As long as Zhou Xin can enter the Old Age Mansion, I will definitely visit the Zhou Household to demand it back," Professor Luo Hui nodded.

"That's good!"

Luo Tianming agreed.

Having obtained the Mental Strengthening Chapter from Ren Anran, Luo Tianming now controls the resources that everyone in the Twilight Mansion craves.

As long as Luo Tianming doesn't do anything too outrageous that would make others willing to pay a price to obtain information from Ren Anran and the others, many people will have no choice but to beg Luo Tianming.

Correspondingly, Luo Tianming also became the prison bully of the old mansion, able to get everyone to work together.

For example, they dragged Zhou Xin, who was in control of the Scarlet Alliance State, to the old mansion.

Bringing Zhou Xin into the Old Age Mansion is not in the interest of the Scarlet Alliance State, but it can balance the mentality of Chang Kongluo and others, and can also help the Luo family in this important matter.

As a former emperor of the Luofu Dynasty, the dead Luo Zhong could only be spitting out as a tyrant, while the living Luo Zhong was a treasure trove of unlimited potential.

Luo Tianming and his companions did not obtain anything of significant value from Luo Chong, but he was certain that Luo Chong would bring enough returns, which would make his decades of continuous investment in Luo Chong's head worthwhile.

The longer the time passed, the more Luo Tianming sensed that the opportunity was approaching.

In his youth, Luo Tianming was ruthless in administering torture, witnessing countless screams and deaths; his heart was as hard as iron.

But as Luo Tianming gets older, some things he used to disregard become more apparent.

For example, he was also afraid of death and worried about becoming a mindless walking corpse.

Given Luo Tianming's situation, he didn't believe Luo Zhong could remain stable.

"Gentlemen, Zhou Xin is getting on in years, shouldn't he be allowed in as well?"

After pondering the matter, Luo Tianming disconnected the communication and then called out to everyone through the public communication service of the Twilight Mansion.

"Luo Tianming, what do you mean? Zhou Xin is ten years younger than me, and he's at the Seventh Sequence. His aging process will definitely be much slower than ours!"

"Hey, isn't this Zhou Na, whose grandson just died? What's wrong? You misjudged your own child and grandson, and now you think your judgment is spot on?"

As soon as dissenting voices came through the communication service, Luo Tianming retorted without hesitation.

He even went so far as to reopen old wounds, implying that the other party's statements should not be taken as reliable.

"If we're talking about the Seventh Sequence, then Chang Kongluo is also in the Seventh Sequence," Luo Tianming said. "Chang Kongluo is no exception, so why should Zhou Xin be an exception?"

"Wouldn't Zhou Xin still be in charge outside?"

"Don't forget, everyone, we're all here now. If Zhou Xin really goes mad in his old age, no one in Western Capital City can stop him. It would be better to bring him in to recuperate, at least so we can rest assured that our descendants won't be wiped out!"

That's quite true!

"Compared to his constructive nature, Zhou Xin's destructive nature is indeed more difficult to guard against!"

"Originally, I intended to give Zhou Xin about five years, but after what you've said, I'm starting to feel uneasy."

"These kinds of things really can't be done according to a specific timeframe. What if he runs into trouble before the deadline?"

"Without our checks and balances, the Zhou Household will likely become the sole power."

"Speaking of which, his specially made room is quite good; all that alloy should be enough to imprison him."

There are opponents, doubters, and naturally, supporters.

The usual approach is to first raise the issue, then warn the opponents, and once the wavering parties are won over, the matter is largely accomplished.

After Luo Tianming's suggestion, the people in the old mansion frequently participated in the discussion, and the final vote rate on this matter exceeded 60%.

Although everyone had moved into the twilight years of the mansion, many of them still held a certain degree of authority within the Lineage.

It would be difficult for everyone to go against the rules of the Alliance States, but it would be safe and easy to do things that went with the flow.

If they were pulling the strings behind the scenes, Zhou Xin would have no choice but to enter this old mansion, even if he didn't want to.
