After a couple more ingratiating chuckles, Qin Siyang changed tack. "Lord Sacred Giant Vine, even if these seeds are vile and filthy, I believe someone with a heart as vast as the universe, like yourself, would objectively acknowledge that their seeds are exceedingly rare treasures, wouldn't you?"

"You said that the God of Bestowal grants divine gifts according to the value of the offerings. Unfortunately, I cannot offer the rarest and most precious crystal of a sacred vine such as yourself, but this vile tree's seed is already the second-most valuable item I can provide.

Then why had it put on
