"The Record of Qi Fortune?"
"Gathering Qi Fortune?"
With a flicker of insight, Zhu Youji roughly grasped the gist of it.
Chu Yang, the protagonist of the original book, was the Son of Qi Fortune, favored by the heavens with continuous good fortune.
Had he not encountered Zhu Youji, another Son of Qi Fortune, he might not have met an untimely demise, ultimately seizing control of all resources in the mortal realm, continuing to wage war in the celestial realm, and creating a legend of his own.
However, now that he had been slain by Zhu Youji, all his accumulated fortune had been transferred to Zhu Youji.
Once the protagonist dies, he ceases to be the protagonist.
With the protagonist's demise, his fortune dissipates. Most of it goes to Zhu Youji, but the other prodigies of heaven will also receive favor. Just like nurturing gu, only the most powerful Gu King can dominate all and reign supreme for an era.
