Sorry, i don't use custom roms, i prefer being on stock , but i think there's a thread in this forum for cyanogenmod/lineage or whatever for your device,just search for it.

1.Start by booting into fastboot and flash back stock recovery ,download from here https://www.mediafire.com/file/ptw06bpbn84063d/recovery_stock_13.8.26.92.img
2.download the full stock .92 rom from Asus website ,place on sd card, boot into recovery, and install from there "install from sd card"
3.flash twrp again if you choose after flashing rom again.
4.don't quite get get what you mean by "giving permission to mount system partition" what the h*ck is that and for what reason are you doing that ??.
5. If all these don't work, give a feedback.

1. I assume you already have android usb drivers and also Adb installed on your PC , if so move to the next step :
2. download and install Asus flash tool (AFT) http://www.mediafire.com/file/ucbdh7bj91patpd/ASUS.Flash.Tool.v1.0.0.34.zip
3. Download Asus RAW firmware 13.8.26.92 http://www.mediafire.com/file/2d4qxprvlkimovd/WW_ZC550KL(8916)-13.8.26.92_M3.1.42_Phone-user.raw.zip
4. boot the device into flashboot mode (csc mode)
5. open Asus flash tool and connect your device via usb cable to the PC , after connecting , the serial number of your device will appear in AFT .
6. In AFT , go to the "model" option and choose "ZC550KL" from the dropdown menu
7. also in AFT click a yellow button at the top (it opens the windows explorer) and browse for the Raw file you downloaded in step №3 (do not unpack)
8. also in AFT , on the "WIPE DATA" option , tick the "YES" option
9. now use you mouse to click or just highlight the serial number of your device that is being displayed in AFT and then click the "START" button.
10. the flashing process will start , it might take up to 30-40 or less , when the process is finished , you'll see a SUCCESSFULLY displayed , but in some cases AFT might keep on running while in actual sense , the flashing process is already completed, just check if your device has rebooted , if it has , then just exit AFT.

Pardon me sir, but before proceeding to flash raw image i want to know if anyone had successfully installed twrp on .92 build. It might be recovery and firmware compatibility issue. I am hazitating as it is brand new phone and i dont want to brick it. Other reason is that the phone is working absolutely fine. I can navigate in system partition as well. So had anyone successfully installed twrp on .92 build????
Sorry again as i am judging your knowledge.

I have twrp installed on firmware version 13.8.26.92 as yours, Twrp 3.0.2 to be exact, It's compatible with all the versions of the marshmallow firmwares ,starting from the first ending in the latest as of now, so there's no compatibility issue at all, you're probably doing something wrong with it.Anyway you can download from here https://www.mediafire.com/file/1kyk0q3b99kcrue/TWRP_LATEST.img
