Chapter 164: Chapter 164 - Omega and Alpha

Lu Zhi's eager grin was infectious as he held out his hand. "Do I get superpowers too? Your flames were quite awesome, bro!"

Yunfeng smiled slightly at his enthusiasm but focused as he took a sniff of Lu Zhi's wrist. He waited, expecting something—anything.

Nothing.

Frowning, he sniffed again, this time slower, more carefully. Still nothing. He even pressed his nose closer, inhaling deeply, but all he got was the faint scent of soap and sweat.

Yunfeng pulled back, shaking his head.

The excitement drained from Lu Zhi's face in an instant. "Oh..." His voice was small, his shoulders slumping.

Yunfeng felt a pang of guilt, but he didn't want to lie to him. "I don't sense any pheromones, Zhi. I'm sorry."

Lu Zhi swallowed hard, trying to hide his disappointment. "It's okay... I guess I was just hoping, you know? Would've been cool to have powers like yours."
