Zuo Teng's Good Fortune

Zhang Xuezhou and Zuo Teng are in different situations.

Although his body had also been tampered with by Zuo Luo, the seed that Zuo Luo had placed in his brain had become corrupted.

Zhang Xuezhou has this ability, but Zuo Teng does not.

Even though Zuo Teng resisted for a long time, he eventually couldn't withstand the torment and was assimilated by Zuo Luo's seeds.

The seed implanted by Zuo Luo is like a pane of glass that isolates the brain. This most likely involves blocking memories, blurring memories, and modifying memories, which makes Zuo Teng feel both familiar and unfamiliar.

Zuo Teng still looks like Zuo Teng, but he's not the same Zuo Teng Zuo Teng before, which makes Zhang Manqian feel a bit unfamiliar with him.

If we were to draw an analogy, Zhang Xuezhou felt that after losing to the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon, his situation would most likely be similar to Zuo Teng's, and he would become a familiar stranger in Zhang Manqian's eyes.

Zhang Xuezhou has been fighting against the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon for an extremely long time, and the conflict continues even now.

In Zhang Xuezhou's eyes, Zuo Teng would also be tormented for a long time until they killed Huang Daoxian and eliminated Zuo Luo before they could be freed.

But Zhang Xuezhou didn't expect that Zuo Teng would be able to extricate himself and return to normal so soon.

He looked at Zuo Teng, whose face was covered in tears, with envy, feeling that Zuo Teng's luck had become beyond words after receiving Zuo Jin's lucky jewelry.

This was something Zhang Xuezhou had always wanted to accomplish, using Zuo Jin's lucky streak to his advantage. However, Zhang Xuezhou hadn't expected that he hadn't accomplished much, while Zuo Teng had inexplicably succeeded.

"What exactly happened to the Zuo Household in Western Capital City? Did Zuo Luo accidentally wander into some place, get into a conflict with someone, and then fail to be recognized, resulting in his death?"

Zhang Xuezhou pondered for a moment and felt that things might just be a coincidence.

Zuo Luo's strength wasn't particularly high, so it wouldn't be difficult to accept if he were accidentally killed by an ordinary person armed with a gun.

But Zhang Xuezhou still felt that this was somewhat absurd. After all, Huang Daoxian's lineage had considerable fortune, and to end up like this was either a backlash from their fortune or a coincidence that they had fallen into a situation where death was inevitable.

"Zoro can easily dodge one bullet, and he should be able to skillfully avoid three or five. The bullets that killed him must have rained down like a storm, turning the area they were spraying into sieves!"

When plotting against Huang Daoxian, Zhang Xuezhou chose to use artillery barrage. Even if Huang Daoxian dodged one rocket, there would still be two, three, four, or five more.

If the numbers are dense enough, even the luckiest person will be affected.

The Luck-Traveling Technique brings good fortune, but good fortune is neither immortality nor the power to defy fate and reverse everything; otherwise, 'Bai' wouldn't have ended up in such a state.

Zhang Xuezhou comforted Zuo Teng, and later, Zuo Teng broke down in tears, leaning on Zhang Xuezhou's shoulder.

What happened?

Zuo Lianguang ran back from the deck, grumbling.

"You little brat, you're so stubborn. But seeing that Committee Member Zhang can get a share of the spoils from the ferocious beasts, you've finally broken down, haven't you?"

Before even understanding the truth, Zuo Lianguang started cursing at Zuo Teng.

"Everyone, I, Zuo Lianguang, have made a fool of myself today!"

Zuo Lianguang bowed repeatedly to the crowd, his face full of disappointment, feeling that Zuo Teng's performance today was outrageous.

But there are advantages to being outrageous. Only crying babies get milk. At this time, Zuo Lianguang took advantage of Zuo Teng's loss of control to ask for some face and asked to leave a sample of the ferocious tiger extract for Zuo Teng.

Zuo Lianguang corresponds to the vulture beast, but Zuo Teng is a weak gene enhanced through blood transfusion, and his body contains special genes related to tigers and leopards.

Among this group of ferocious beasts, besides those disguised as tigers, there were also genuine tiger-like beasts, namely the upright tiger that had previously chased and killed Chimon Hagrid.

Zuo Teng was still quite far from the Seventh Sequence, but Zuo Lianguang had already swallowed his pride and made his demands. He lacked confidence in his own ability to prolong his life and had difficulty controlling when Zuo Teng would enter the Sixth Sequence. He felt that the probability of Zuo Teng obtaining the tiger extract after his death was extremely low, so it was better to make a request in advance.

This shameless demand drew criticism from everyone, and some even brought up their own Lineage situations, implying that the younger generation should be treated equally.

"Professor Ren, what do you think?"

After much back and forth, everyone couldn't help but ask Ren Yisheng, who was in charge of continuing the leadership of Changkong Luo, to make a statement.

This is the norm for the Scarlet Alliance State Council; everyone has their own opinion, and after summarizing, the leader makes the final decision.

"Zuo Teng's division of the ferocious beast extract naturally does not comply with the rules of the previous agreement," Ren Yisheng said, shaking his head.

"But Zuo Teng didn't do nothing either. He helped before and even saved Qimeng Haige," Zuo Lianguang said anxiously.

"The vulture beast will only allow you to reach the Seventh Sequence if it meets your requirements," Zhong Rang frowned. "Your genes are a bit weak; I'm afraid you'll need to exhaust this beast before you can even step into the Seventh Sequence. Your Zuo Household is already divided to a great extent; asking for other beasts might be inappropriate!"

"Splitting it a little bit wouldn't be a problem, would it?" Zuo Lianguang said. "Look at us, all smiles, while our child is crying like that!"

"You only got into the Sixth Sequence because you had a weak gene and were lucky. Zuo Teng also has a weak gene. What's the use of him splitting it a little bit? Not to mention whether he can even step into the Sixth Sequence, without a large and sufficient injection, he'll probably have a hard time getting into the Seventh Sequence," Li Qi said, shaking his head.

"Just a little bit, just give him a glimmer of hope!"

Zuo Lianguang spoke urgently, causing everyone to exchange bewildered glances, occasionally glancing at Ren Yisheng.

"Zuo Teng has provided information about the ferocious beast. Since Committee Member Zuo Lianguang is so earnest in his request, why don't you all give him face?" Song Xianzong said reluctantly.

"Zhu Bufan has a need for tiger-like ferocious beasts, and Committee Member Zhang's sister is also involved with tiger-like ferocious beasts. Whether Zuo Teng can get a share by crying and making a fuss depends on the opinions of both sides," Ren Yisheng said.

"My physical condition isn't bad, so it shouldn't take long. Besides, at my age, I don't think I'll have a second chance to try and break through to the Seventh Sequence," Zhu Bufan said. "I personally have no objections!"

Where is Committee Member Zhang?

The allocation of the team at the Twilight Mansion was determined based on their individual needs, though Zhang Xuezhou had made a prior suggestion.

Because of his unstable genes, he couldn't be targeted or defined in relation to the ferocious beasts, so he directly transferred the allocated slot to Zhang Manqian.

Zhang Xuezhou had a spot available for the allocation of the ferocious beasts, but he chose to give it to Zhang Manqian.

After everyone finished their discussion, they asked Zhang Xuezhou, the person who had spoken, not Zhang Manqian.

"Teng's crying like this, I definitely have to give him face," Zhang Xuezhou said. "But whether Teng can enter the Sixth Sequence and whether he can use the beast extract is not up to me. He can come here to get it when he meets the requirements, and if he doesn't, then it's a waste!"

"This plan is good," Ren Yisheng said.

"Then we must write this down in black and white today, so that we can't go back on our word later," Zuo Lianguang said.

"I definitely won't back out," Zhang Xuezhou nodded. "Signing is no problem either. But Zuo Teng needs to enter the Sixth Sequence faster. If my sister enters the Sixth Sequence and then repeatedly tries to break through to the Seventh Sequence, exhausting all the beast extract, and Zuo Teng has nothing left to use in the future, then you can't blame us for using too much!"

"That's natural!"

Zuo Lianguang gritted his teeth and agreed.

He was efficient and decisive, quickly drafting the agreement with paper and pen, and then promptly seeking Zhang Xuezhou and Zhang Manqian's signatures.

"Teng, are you any happier now?"

Looking at Zuo Teng, who was still weeping as if his father had died, Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but feel a little fortunate as he comforted him, thinking that he had escaped a disaster by not being affected by Zuo Luo.
