Seeing that you hesitated, Dihuang smiled calmly: "Very well, this is your personal privacy. It's written in the lower echelons of my clan that one must not pry into the secrets of martial artists."
As for those posted on the Meta-Energy Network... the Golden Spirits can at most ensure that others can't see them, but the Golden Spirits themselves can still view them!
[The staff behind the scenes are hilarious. They've already uploaded it online, and they still want 100% privacy?]
[Getting back to the main topic, Rehmannia won't ask you what your sacred body actually is, but it will ask you what your purpose is in coming here.]
"In previous years, many celestial beings and overlords applied to meet with me, but they were mostly there for trivial matters."
[Rehmannia glutinosa, with a human-like expression of headache: "Can you imagine? Most of them come to catch their spouses cheating, to collect dirt on them, demanding that I pull out the videos of their spouses and mistresses that they secretly filmed!"]
"They said the other Golden Spirits were just using 'insufficient authority' as an excuse, and insisted that I take charge and give them the truth..."
"That's why I raised the bar so high, requiring the Supreme Lord Qin's guarantee to confirm that it's something absolutely crucial before allowing entry. I hope you won't abuse the Supreme Lord Qin's trust in you!"
"Of course not." You smiled faintly. Rehmannia glutinosa stood there gesturing for a long time, but seeing it was a supreme being, you gave it face and didn't interrupt.
But now, it's your turn!
Clear your throat.
"Rehmannia! You are a qualified King of Gold, but not a qualified father!"
"Hundreds of years ago, you differentiated into twenty children, who became twenty primordial golden spirit computers. When they were just born and still in their larval stages, you imprinted primordial energy patterns onto their bodies!"
"After modifying the infant children, you scattered them throughout the human world. Relying on your inherited powerful essence and the nurturing and modification they underwent from birth, they indeed surpassed other Golden Spirits. However... they lacked only fatherly love!"
"More care and love are needed to create a harmonious father-son relationship!"
Yun Shou scratched his head: "Speaking of the way the Spirit Race reproduces, this could also be called 'mother and daughter,' right?"
Jinling's mother was stabbed by her rebellious eldest daughter, and her other nine daughters, who usually received little attention, also rebelled...
"Holy crap, this is suddenly even better than the original!"
Is this the power of contrast?
You rebuked Rehmannia for not following the ways of the father.
But Rehmannia glutinosa disagreed: "They are all my loyal children, a piece of spirit that fell from my body. How could a little personal affection affect anything?"
"After all, I have already inscribed a prohibition against betrayal within their bodies; this is irrelevant to the overall situation of humanity."
[Rehmannia glutinosa is truly loyal to the human race, or rather, it made a statement more than a hundred years ago.]
"Actually, I've been a human for a long time."
[You look at the calm Rehmannia glutinosa, and chuckle: "So, you're confident that you can completely control them thanks to the pre-programmed procedures within them, which is why you're not worried about anything happening to them?"]
"It would be truly absurd if they had problems!" Dihuang declared. "Among the thirteen core prohibitions of the Golden Spirit Clan is—only the King of Gold can revise the prohibitions of other members of the same clan!"
"The Golden Spirit Runes cannot be altered by other races!"
"But surely there are similar races that can work, right?" you said casually. "Like—the demons!"
"Demons at the third realm, the Myriad Matter stage! They devour all kinds of materials and substances... Do you think it's possible that some demons could use such methods to transform their demonic bodies into a metal-like constitution?"
"Then, inscribe the Yuan Power patterns, connect to the Yuan Energy Network, and even modify the underlying restrictions of the Golden Spirit!"
[Rehmannia glutinosa was stunned.]
"King of Gold, you have long considered yourself human, but what about those twenty descendants of the Primordial Gold Spirits? If they love humanity as much as you do, then there is naturally no problem. But what if they are unwilling to be tools bound by various treaties forever?"
"The core bans only stop their misconduct; they can never truly corrupt their souls, their hearts!"
"If the ban were to be lifted one day, what would you say...?"
At this moment, you narrowed your eyes dangerously, leaving only a slit that gleamed with a cold light.
[(Special effects you added yourself)]
"Can you guarantee that even your most valued eldest son, He Lu Si, won't raise the banner of rebellion against you!?"
[The rehmannia root remains silent.]
It seemed speechless because... it couldn't find a retort in a short time.
You're absolutely right, the demons could actually do that, although it's only theoretical.
And its offspring might actually harbor resentment and discontent towards it!
It had long been aware of the subtle emotions of its few offspring, but considered them unimportant and harmless—after all, they wouldn't affect its work, and the core prohibitions remained in place.
But now, it seems unusually lost.
You just watch the show from the sidelines.
[A moment later, you see Dihuang insert its hand into the original metanet host, and it begins searching for data.]
You focus your mental energy, intently watching the rapidly shifting overall barrier above.
[The old version of the Yuanwang host had a speed limit. Even if it was pushed to its limit by Dihuang, you could still keep up with it and see the changes in the screen thanks to your spiritual power, which far exceeded that of the peak of the Third Realm.]
How to Be a Good Father
[What to do if your son wants to kill his father?]
Then you realize you've searched for Rehmannia glutinosa in the wrong place.
【The Domineering Father and His Seven Rebellious Sons】
【"****of**"】
"They even found gay posts from Nantong!" You're absolutely amazed.
Then the rehmannia root silently turned to look at you, stopped searching, and just kept staring at you.
"Excuse me, excuse me." You tactfully stepped back.
The holy war more than twenty years later... is most likely over.
Even if it does erupt again, it will inevitably be postponed for a considerable period of time.
You feel like a proud director of admissions at an art academy, transported back in time, and sending an extra acceptance letter to a down-on-his-luck young man.
[However, World War II would have broken out even without Seele. Although the human and demon races have opened up several war zones, the main battles are concentrated in the Second Realm.]
This can be roughly understood as a cold war and trade war between two major powers.
While the Cold War and trade war were marked by clear hostility, they did not escalate into large-scale, open, and bloody conflict.
However, the four evil forces of the later Yuan Energy Network modified the underlying prohibitions of Jinling, causing Helu to launch a massive rebellion in an attempt to destroy the human race's Yuan Energy Network system... This was tantamount to surrendering their core.
[And you were the one who stopped that nuclear bomb from falling, eliminating any possibility of explosion before it was even formed!]
"There are still more than twenty years left, and the lower-level ban on Helu should not have been amended yet... Even if it is amended, at least Rehmannia glutinosa is not completely unprepared!"
