Hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the livestream
"Little Zhang seems to have some talent!"
"Has Ren Anran gone mad?"
"The Ren Household's fighting style has so many drawbacks, it's even more troublesome than our family's Black Armor Combat Technique. Is Professor Ren really up to the task?"
On the second floor of the dining center, Zhou Yueyan held a small pair of binoculars.
She adjusted the lenses from time to time to make the scene in front of her clearer.
Ren Yisheng stepped into the Seventh Sequence, becoming the third Seventh Sequence user in the Scarlet Alliance State.
This isn't a big deal; it has almost no impact on ordinary people.
But this matter is no small thing for the Zhou family.
For Zhou Xin Zhou Xin Western Capital, what he lacked in the Seventh Sequence was a supporter of sufficient stature, especially a supporter like Ren Yisheng.
If Ren Yisheng had enough power to assist Zhou Xin, Zhou Xin would have no fear of that Eighth Sequence individual from the Aomeijia Alliance.
The Scarlet Alliance State overthrew the dominant Luofu royal family, but no Lineage was able to reclaim the Luofu Empire's former power and influence.
Chang Kongluo is no good, Zhou Xin is no good, and the others are even worse.
Compared to the many domestic conflicts, Zhou Xin's focus was always outward, and he also bore the brunt of the attacks.
If it weren't for the survivability provided by Zhou Xin's Xuanjia Technique, Zhou Xin, this pillar of support, would have already collapsed.
More than twenty years ago, Zhou Yueyan participated in the negotiations to remove the Ren Household's authority in Western Capital. Twenty years later, she needs to make an accurate judgment and even invite the other party back once again.
"Hopefully they have real skill. If they get crushed by Barton in one move, it won't just be you who will be in trouble; our Zhou family will be in trouble too!"
In the rules of Western Capital, only those with strength can talk about making contributions, and only those with strength can be matched with their corresponding positions.
Zhou Yueyan was not worried about Ren Yisheng holding a grudge; she believed he would eventually assimilate and integrate into their interest group.
This timeframe could be one year, two years, or even three to five years.
During this period, Zhou Yueyan needed to accurately assess the Ren Household's position and even consider potential alliances.
In today's world, those in power are mostly sequence individuals with advanced genetic power.
Individual strength is insufficient to withstand a large-scale attack by firearms, but individual flexibility is a level that firearms cannot achieve.
The current mode of warfare has also shifted towards decapitation strikes targeting high-ranking officials.
Unless the initiator of a war can eliminate the enemy's top leadership in a short period of time, the retaliation they face will be unbearable.
The world has entered the age of genetic advancement, which not only ensures an ample supply of food, but also keeps wars at bay for decades.
But the conflict persists, and it is rife with brutal violence.
"The Ren Household..."
Looking at Ren Anran's dazed and confused appearance, Zhou Yueyan felt a huge question mark in her heart about the Ren Household.
She gained absolutely nothing from the Ren Household today, and her impression of them was even rather negative, but Zhou Yueyan also discovered some interesting things.
For example, Zhang Xuezhou, and the ascetic Hongku discussed by the Ren Household siblings.
Zhou Yueyan didn't bother to figure out how to gain any potential benefits or to investigate what kind of ascetic this Hongku was; she simply preferred that the Ren Household had a slightly stronger foundation.
"It's a pity we didn't talk about Luo Zhong!"
If Zhou Yueyan had any selfish motives, much of the related content would only be linked to the Luofu royal family, and would not involve ascetic practitioners like Hongku.
Thoughts crossed her mind, but in the end she just stood there with her binoculars watching Zhang Xuezhou glide backward from time to time.
"I'm so envious! Should we concoct a Crane Blood Potion and try out Crane Form Fist for a while?"
Zhang Xuezhou's backward flying Crane Form Fist Boxing was so skillful that Zhou Yueyan felt a little tempted.
Her research institute is engaged in gene blood agent research, which involves a considerable amount of funding. If she wanted to concoct some blood agents for her own experimentation, Zhou Yueyan would not feel much pressure.
She pressed her ears, realizing that compared to Zhang Xuezhou's ability to Crane Soaring Backward Flight like a crane, his skill in eavesdropping on 'spirit pigeon genes' suddenly seemed less interesting.
"Those old guys really don't put their hearts into researching fighting techniques. Pigeons are also very good at flying and leaping, so how come they only came up with a set of 'Spirit Ear Fighting Techniques'? They're not nearly as serious as my team's research on blood serums!"
Zhou Yueyan made a dissatisfied comment and then gestured with her finger towards the video device in her hand.
The current investigation was not very meaningful, so Zhou Yueyan could only pass the time with the video device.
She noted down her plan to try the Crane Blood Agent and then skillfully opened the software.
"The show's live! I found a guy who's really good at skateboarding today!"
As the blurry distant view came into focus, Zhou Yueyan looked at her empty live stream room and then glanced at her fellow top streamers.
"This is utterly absurd! My livestream content is clearly much more interesting than that ' Xuanxuan Loves Traveling. Oh well, this livestreaming platform doesn't pay us, and she's a poor streamer too. Let's not compare!"
Zhou Yueyan felt that her live streams were too empty, and she could only pass the time by entertaining herself.
Her livestreaming schedule is not fixed; she rarely goes live, sometimes only once every ten days or half a month. It's understandable that she lacks a regular audience.
But a few minutes later, Zhou Yueyan noticed that her live stream was starting to flood with messages from her account.
Wow, this live stream is interesting!
I like this streamer!
"How long have you been streaming, girl? Can you show your face?"
Of the dozen or so accounts, three had interacted with her, which gave Zhou Yueyan a sense of novelty.
She felt a sense of accomplishment from receiving affirmation from strangers through this presentation.
Before she could react, a viewer named 'I love the streamer' directly tipped her 100 yuan.
"Huh?"
Zhou Yueyan was a little stunned. She typed a few words on the screen, but none of the viewers responded.
It wasn't until Zhou Yueyan pointed the video camera at her own head that a low-level account exclaimed in surprise.
"Little girl, you've become a live streamer too?"
"Little girl, who are you?"
"I'm your uncle!"
"You can't just take advantage like that when you're streaming!"
Zhou Yueyan looked at this low-level account and flipped through the other party's information. When she saw the name 'Lao Luo' in the information, her heart trembled.
A few seconds later, an ID called 'Zhou Moumou's Tragic Life' entered the live stream, which almost made Zhou Yueyan cut off the live stream.
"Play?"
The typing of "Zhou Moumou's miserable life" was not very fluent; only a very simple question was typed.
This allowed Zhou Yueyan to quickly confirm the identities of the two level-one alt accounts.
One person was inconvenient to confirm, but the two of them were together and spoke in a familiar tone. Even if Zhou Yueyan was slow to realize it, she knew who she was facing.
This forced an awkward smile from her.
"I've recently become quite interested in sociology and am currently examining some new forms of society!"
Zhou Yueyan managed a weak reply, then quickly switched the camera angles.
"Look at these energetic young men, they're a vibrant sight in our society!"
Zhou Yueyan quickly switched the camera to look out the window.
The camera zooms out, and Zhang Xuezhou's previous rapid backward flight turns into a series of up-and-down bounces.
Watching the other person hopping and skipping through the woods, Zhou Yueyan felt that this performance lacked the previous entertainment value.
"It seems like he jumped three meters high while standing upright. Does he have frog genes?"
"2.8M!"
The captions "Old Luo" and "Zhou Moumou's Tragic Life" appeared one after another. When the camera zoomed in again, Zhou Yueyan saw a familiar face in the shot.
"Why isn't Old Ren doing research anymore?"
Old Luo typed a line of words, seemingly somewhat surprised.
Another question mark appeared in the post about 'Zhou Moumou's miserable life'.
Zhou Yueyan felt her head suddenly swell.
During the ten-minute live stream, her monitoring was clearly inadequate, and she likely overlooked some important information.
