Chapter 153: The World Has Never Been Truly Fair

Yang Fan's face darkened, his worldview beginning to shatter. He suddenly felt that his previous understanding of "Intelligent Life" might have been far too naive.

Right at that moment, Yang Da seemed to sense something.

In the next instant, his figure vanished directly from the imperial throne.

Clack— The wine glass hit the ground, spilling monkey wine all over the floor.

"Master," Yang Da appeared before Yang Fan, bowing respectfully. "You have finally come."

Looking at the face that was identical to his own, Yang Fan found it somewhat difficult to speak for a moment.

He felt like scolding him would be equivalent to scolding himself.

Yang Fan took a deep breath. "What are you doing?"

"Oh," Yang Da replied naturally. "Just relaxing."

"Currently, the divine kingdom is only about ten million square kilometers in size. Outside, Yang San handles combat, while inside, Yang Yi executes commands. The kingdom's development is stable."

"Why should I exhaust myself? Isn't lying flat nice? As the highest Intelligent Life of the divine kingdom, I shouldn't suffer unnecessary hardship," Yang Da said as if it were completely natural.

"…" Yang Fan froze. Why did these words sound so familiar?

For a moment, he didn't know how to respond. Looking at the resplendent palace in the distance, a subtle hint of envy flashed in Yang Fan's eyes.

"You… are living pretty comfortably, aren't you?" Yang Fan marveled.

"It's alright," Yang Da nodded. "Through these years of learning, I've gained an understanding not only of the divine kingdom, but also of the real world where Master resides. If Master is interested, I can share some life tips."

"What tips?" Yang Fan's interest was piqued.

"Tips on how to enjoy life, of course."

"With the enhancement of the Evolution Talent, the kingdom's revenue far surpasses that of ordinary gods. Since we earn so much, naturally, we must learn how to spend it."

"Taichu City is too monotonous, but there are Vacation Planets nearby. The entertainment systems there are very well-developed."

"Right, right, right!" Yang Fan chimed in instantly. "I stayed in a presidential suite before! The environment was indeed pretty nice."

"Presidential suite?" Yang Da glanced at him with a hint of disdain. "What is that worth? Master could easily buy an entire commercial building—the kind with two elevators for three units."

"Tianxiang Renjian even has sugar baby sponsorship services. Keeping an entire building filled with Demigod beauties wouldn't be a problem at all."

Yang Fan's pupils dilated in shock. "You can play it like that?!"

"Of course. When the time comes, you can flip concubine tags every day, visiting whoever gets chosen."

"You play this wildly???"

"We are wealthy people. Master needs to broaden your horizons."

"…" Yang Fan was a little shaken. "Isn't that… too extravagant? Besides, I'm married."

"This is contributing to the Federation's economy. We must think bigger," Yang Da said solemnly.

Yang Fan nodded automatically, then suddenly remembered something and coughed heavily.

"Cough, cough! Don't get off topic! We can discuss these small matters often in the future. I came this time to ask you: how did you spend all my six hundred million plus Divinity Points in a single night? Even for an investment, shouldn't you leave some reserve funds?"

"Master, the divine kingdom has the Hundredfold Evolution Talent. A single day in reality brings an income of around ten million Divinity Points; why would we need reserve funds? Yesterday, I spent nearly six hundred million Divinity Points buying Spiritual Veins. Once loaded into the divine kingdom, the monthly net profit will exceed six hundred million." Yang Da spoke calmly, yet with a matter-of-fact confidence.

"Where are the Spiritual Veins?"

"Yuan Zong, a Tier 3 God from Taichu City, will deliver the buildings this morning."

Back in the trading area of Taichu City, Yang Fan had casually added the contact information of many shopkeepers.

Yuan Zong was one of them. He specialized in buying and selling resource-type buildings. Yang Fan had purchased Spiritual Veins from him several times before, and it had always been delivered by his Subordinate Gods.

"You bought this much all at once?" Yang Fan frowned slightly.

Unlike Yang Yi, as the highest Intelligent Life of the divine kingdom, Yang Da could perceive the faint trace of worry in Yang Fan's heart.

"Master need not worry. I will not make dangerous moves behind your back," Yang Da said calmly. "This is Taichu City, one of the most prosperous planets of the Human Race. Countless direct descendants of the Five Great Giants reside here. Spending a few hundred million Divinity Points is by no means extravagant."

"Moreover, Master is now a Human Race Prodigy, and many major factions are interested in investing in you. They won't suspect anything."

Hearing this analysis, Yang Fan relaxed slightly in his heart.

In comparison, human information processing capabilities were limited after all. Since Yang Da had already made the judgment, Yang Fan naturally trusted it.

Although his consciousness still remained in the divine kingdom, as a Demigod, he could still vaguely sense everything in the outside world.

Just then, a crisp doorbell rang in the real world.

Yang Fan's consciousness jolted slightly as he quickly withdrew from the divine kingdom and returned to reality.

Opening his eyes, clarity returned to his gaze, and he stood up to walk toward the main door.

As the door opened, a figure with a deep and profound aura stood quietly outside.

Yang Fan's gaze narrowed slightly; the visitor turned out to be Yuan Zong himself.

Unlike before, this Tier 3 God had actually come to his doorstep in person.

"Your Highness Yang Fan, all the Spiritual Vein buildings you ordered are here." Yuan Zong's face was beaming with smiles, his tone warm and respectful. "We welcome your next visit."

In Taichu City, resource-type buildings were never as popular as combat-type buildings and Wonder buildings.

Yang Fan's order this time, a Spiritual Vein purchase worth nearly six hundred million Divinity Points, qualified as one of the top ten big orders of the year for Yuan Zong.

Although security in Taichu City was tight, the value of this batch of resources was simply too astounding. He ultimately felt uneasy leaving it to a Subordinate God for delivery, so he simply made the trip himself.

"Thank you." Yang Fan took the resource card, his tone calm.

"With these resources, combined with Your Highness's S-rank Talent of Tenfold Time Sequence, you will certainly make a blockbuster impression at Primordial Academy," Yuan Zong flattered opportunistically.

Yang Fan merely nodded faintly, exchanging a few brief pleasantries before closing the door.

Outside the door, Yuan Zong did not leave immediately. Instead, he turned back to look at the quiet small courtyard.

A hint of envy unconsciously surfaced in his eyes as he murmured softly, "A Human Race Prodigy indeed lives up to his reputation."

"Merely at the Demigod Realm, yet his divine kingdom can be equipped with resource buildings on such a scale, with major factions competing to invest… This starting point is already a height that countless people cannot reach in their entire lives."

He shook his head gently and turned to leave.

Five or six hundred million Divinity Points—if placed in the outside world, some small Families exhausting their entire foundations might still fail to gather it.

Yet in this Taichu City, even an ordinary Divine Being might hide unimaginable wealth within their divine kingdom.

The world has never been truly fair.

Some exhaust their lives merely bustling about for food and clothing, while others are born already standing at the destination that countless people look up to.

What truly determines height has never been effort alone, but rather the starting point, Opportunity, and that subtle, indescribable luck.
