Fortune First in All Things

"Damn it, the gap between us is so huge!"

The Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon could start a war whenever they wanted and stop at will. When Zhang Xuezhou regained his senses, he felt that his eyes were all red.

He was undoubtedly somewhat unwilling.

Taking advantage of the high fortune that led to the defeat of the Gaozu Emperor, the Emperor intervened in the conflict. He clearly saw an opportunity to defeat the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon, but the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon abruptly ended the battle and disappeared without a trace.

The other party did not switch bodies as usual, but Zhang Xuezhou returned to the real world.

He was unsure where the other party had gone, which made Zhang Xuezhou very anxious.

They've reached the point of direct confrontation. This time, he had the Emperor's help to side with him, but he won't be so lucky next time.

"Luck, I need luck too!"

Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse. Zhang Xuezhou has almost reached the limit of his development in the Divine Ability Realm. His strength in this realm is already extremely strong, but his opponents are not in the Divine Ability Realm.

Even if the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon suffer, their fundamental strength is terrifyingly powerful.

However, the opponent's strength is not indestructible.

As long as the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon display their health bars, instead of facing an impenetrable defense like in the current battle, Zhang Xuezhou does indeed have a certain chance of winning.

"He didn't go there; he's probably hiding somewhere in reality, perhaps waiting for an opportunity to pull the tree chair through, thus stopping me from engaging in another confrontation!"

If the battlefield is set on the tree chair in the exchange center, it will be difficult for Zhang Xuezhou to attract helpers.

He wasn't sure if the Emperor would continue waiting on the tree chair, or if he had already returned to the Kunlun Sacred Land; Zhang Xuezhou didn't want to gamble on that probability.

"He must be in the Sinkhole No. 2!"

Zhang Xuezhou sat up abruptly, his mind racing, before quickly getting to his feet.

"You woke up a day later than usual, and your heart rate was extremely high during that time. All your vital signs fluctuated wildly, with at least three hundred monitoring tests conducted!"

Zhang Manqian's voice came through, and Zhang Xuezhou touched his chest.

"I've started a war with him!"

"Hongku has appeared?"

"Hongku?"

Zhang Xuezhou was placed in the government office in Blanpeda.

Just a 200-meter walk from here will take you to the parliamentary center of the New Aomeijia Alliance.

Many members of the parliament of the New Aomeijia Alliance live in this area, and if it is not strictly controlled, it will be subject to collective bombardment.

Whether they were members of the Montes Lineage or rebels, no one dared to make a careless mistake at this time, and they also eliminated every possibility of being bombarded by rocket artillery.

The isolation not only facilitates the observation of the situation in the new Aomeijia Alliance, but also facilitates the observation of Zhang Xuezhou's situation.

Zhang Xuezhou's physical condition was very unstable during this period, not only due to abnormal data, but also due to unnatural movements.

"My father and I have tried to subdue him twenty-two times, but we still haven't been able to catch him," Ren Anran said. "How did he start the conflict with you? How should we assist him?"

As usual, Zhang Manqian provided the data, allowing Zhang Xuezhou to make the most intuitive judgment, while Ren Anran went straight to the point with her questions.

The time to block the memories of the Sinkhole No. 2 was too short. Ren Anran's face showed some unnaturalness, but also some determination. She was just waiting for Zhang Xuezhou to speak and make an accurate judgment.

"I will offer sacrifices to Grien, hoping to absorb some of his fortune, and then see if I can find Xuanming to help me," Zhang Xuezhou said. "After that, I need to return to North Rehe to search his lair again and see if I can find him!"

"How do you plan to defeat him?" Ren Anran asked.

"I don't know either," Zhang Xuezhou shook his head and said, "We can only give it a try!"

What Zhang Xuezhou could currently determine was that the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon could not reverse the rules of the tree chair's travel. If the other party did not enter the body of another world according to the rules during the travel, the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon would not be able to return to reality and control the body.

The opponent can only cower in one place and wait, which is the time for him to combine external forces and launch a counterattack.

Once the time travel period arrives, Zhang Xuezhou will inevitably be put on the defensive and will have no choice but to fight against the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon in the time travel zone.

"There's something I need to say..."

"Don't rush, let's consecrate the flag first!"

No matter what happens, strengthening your luck in advance is never a bad idea.

Zhang Xuezhou's only worry was that he would have difficulty entering a state of spiritual cultivation, which would prevent him from capturing and enriching himself with spiritual energy in reality.

The effect of luck is very subtle; it cannot play a decisive role, but it has the potential to amplify advantages.

If Zhang Xuezhou has a one in ten chance of winning against the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon, with the help of luck, it might rise to two or three in ten, or even higher.

As for the troubles caused by the decline due to the difficulty in maintaining high fortune, Zhang Xuezhou put that aside. He was in a life-or-death situation and couldn't afford to worry about such trivial matters.

What does "sacrificing the flag" mean?

Upon seeing several people turn their heads and look at him, Grian, who had come to Zhang Xuezhou's room, immediately turned pale.

He asked awkwardly, only to see Zhang Xuezhou raise five fingers.

"Are we going to bleed them out now?"

A chill ran through Grian.

He was willing to abide by his agreement with Zhang Xuezhou; five hundred milliliters of blood was nothing to him.

But Grean had a bad feeling, after all, Zhang Xuezhou had stated that there might be more.

When will it be more frequent? Definitely when you're in a rush or panic.

Zhang Xuezhou mentioned a lower limit of 500 milliliters, while the upper limit was difficult to determine.

Nothing good ever comes of sacrificial rituals. Grian thought about how pig sacrifices were still common in some regions, and felt like he was that pig about to be sacrificed.

He hadn't seen any record of the pigs that had been sacrificed on the altar surviving, and for a moment he couldn't help but take two steps back.

He only stopped awkwardly when Zhou Hui, looking displeased, blocked his way from behind.

"Don't worry, bleeding you to death won't bring about any further change. I'll just have a little blood on me!"

Zhang Xuezhou looked at Grean.

Compared to thirteen days ago, the aura surrounding Grian is now extremely dense, no less than the level Han Yan has maintained for more than ten years following the new emperor.

If they waited a little longer, Zhang Xuezhou believed that there would still be changes in Grian.

But he couldn't wait any longer.

Grean, who has only served as the Grand Council Speaker for about twenty days, is destined to lose his kingdom.

Has Badun returned to Brampada?

As he got up to set up the battle flag, Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but ask about Badun's situation.

"They haven't come back yet," Ren Yisheng said, shaking his head.

"If the initial treatment was effective, he shouldn't have delayed for so long; he's most likely taking advantage of our Qin Meng Secret Stone!"

Zhang Xuezhou let out a deep breath.

If Badun were still in Western Capital City, he felt he could ask him for help then.

Regardless, Badun is the world's first Eighth Sequence being, and there's a high probability he also possesses the potential to become a fire Badun being.

The other party must be highly knowledgeable, and may be able to provide assistance.

Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but inquire about Xu Lu's situation. Upon learning that he couldn't contact Xu Lu at the moment, he became even more determined to capture Badun as a conscript.

Regardless of whether the other party can be effective or how effective they are, it's not wrong for him to involve them when the time comes.
