Due to the fact that she had never actively performed a "summoning".
This is why Zhou has maintained her independent consciousness over the years, completely unaware of the presence of a Hypnosis Seed in her Spirit Sea... This is also the reason she was able to enter the Holy City. Even though Gu Shen's seed was deeply buried, once Zhou knew the truth, it would manifest during the Holy City's spiritual inspection, revealing the clue.
Gu Shen shared his plan with Lu Nanzhi.
"Is there really such a thing? It's truly a stroke of genius..."
Lu Nanzhi looked pleasantly surprised.
She hadn't expected Gu Shen to have such a backup plan!
"It's not exactly a stroke of genius, just lucky, I'd say."
Gu Shen smiled tenderly, "Initially, I just casually left a Hypnosis Seed behind, now it's rooted and sprouted, perfectly poised for 'collecting returns'."
As a core member of the Storm Church.
Zhou has been stationed at Yuanting Island these days, not far from the transaction site...
