Lord Lao? Qin Fen curled his lip. The moonlight outside was bright, but he wasn't happy at all. The Heavenly Dao was far too impractical. What the hell did he need Xi Rang for? Well, perhaps he shouldn't put it that way, but Big Chef was a practical man. What good was it if he couldn't download it? What he wanted was merit, but the Heavenly Dao simply wouldn't give him any!
Looking at the download prompt that had suddenly appeared in his WeChat management interface, Qin Fen could only weep in speechless frustration. "Xi Rang, the source of earth among the five elements. Legend has it that before Yu the Great tamed the floods, his father used this substance to combat them. Ever-growing and eternally indestructible, it embodies the principle of using earth to hold back water and is the source of all soil in heaven and earth. Water overcomes fire, and earth overcomes water; it is the bane of all things water-aligned. It is overcome by wood, and fears primordial divine wood most of all, especially Sui!"
The description made Qin Fen want to swear. So after he'd made Sui suffer, the Heavenly Dao had rewarded him with something Sui could counter! But that wasn't the point. The real point was the Heavenly Dao's explanation below!
"Young man, this is good stuff. But don't say I'm looking down on you: this thing is worth even more than the Nine-Thousand-Year Peaches of Immortality. You can't afford to download it!"
You know I can't afford it, so why the fuck give it to me? Qin Fen raised his middle finger at the sky! "You have your clever schemes, and I have my ways around them. Fine, I won't download it. I'll forward it! This stuff will be far more useful
