At this moment, the streamer Xiaobei covered her gorgeous red lips with both hands, her expressive eyes filled with utter disbelief. She was so overwhelmed that she couldn't say a single word.
Meanwhile, the live chat had already exploded.
"My lords, why are you all silent? Whose general is this?"
"My mom asked me why I was kneeling while looking at my phone, and I told her I was worshipping a god."
"Great God 001, I admit I was a bit loud before; please forgive my earlier ignorance."
"The Big Boss barely made a move, and it's already the limit for this tier."
"Why is the gap between people so massive? A single swipe of the Big Boss's finger is three months of my instant noodle money."
"Does the Big Boss need a pendant? The kind that can talk?"
"Big Boss, would you be interested in a petite, sweet girl who's easy to push over? I want to test if 001 is any good."
"Get lost, you dirty closet-case."
As Lin Yi clicked on the "Cigarette" gifts repeatedly, the special effects in the center of the screen never stopped. Xiaobei’s ordinary livestream was instantly pushed to the number one spot on the hourly leaderboard.
Another massive wave of people flooded into Xiaobei’s room, all eager to witness the handiwork of a true god. The viewer count climbed visibly: 50,000, 100,000, 100,000+.
Xiaobei, originally just a small-time streamer, had never seen such a scene in her life. She stammered into the camera, "001, please stop! That's enough, that’s enough... if you keep going..."
The streamers on both sides of the broadcast had effectively been relegated to supporting roles. Aside from Xiaobei's feeble, helpless pleas, there was nothing anyone could do to stop Lin Yi’s wild spree.
"Stop gifting! If you keep acting this crazy, I’m going to scream!"
"Streamer, be careful! If you keep screaming like that, *we* are the ones who are going to go crazy!"
"Don't you see everyone is watching the Ao Bing gift?"

When the 6,667th gift landed, Lin Yi’s account officially reached level 75, the highest rank on Doulang. The chat was moving so fast it was impossible to read, and Xiaobei had reached a state of complete numbness.
[Commoner 001 sent Carnival x...]
Lin Yi was also feeling a bit numb. His index and middle fingers had clicked ten thousand times; even he couldn't take it anymore, so he stopped and complained in the chat.
"Doulang really needs an update. The maximum gift amount is too small; it's not enough to keep gifting, and my hand is cramping."
"Is that even human language?"
"God 0, you’re definitely the king of humble-bragging."
"God 0, come check out my main page; I fly nationwide."
"God 0, whatever Okamoto pays you, I’ll triple it for Durex. Please, change your name!"
"Get lost. Do you think God 0 would care about your pocket change?"
From some unknown point, the audience had started calling Lin Yi "God 0." His Doulang account, which had started with zero followers and zero followings, was now approaching 100,000 followers in just this short time.
Many viewers who arrived late and saw the gift effects had ended, expressed their regret in the chat.
"I’m too late! I’ve never seen such a grand spectacle. Boss, can you set off some more fireworks?"
"Is this for real? Damn it, I was tricked into coming here—there's nothing left!"
"That's it? It's just stopping now?"
"Keep going, Boss, don't stop! This servant can still handle it!"
Comments like these flooded the screen.
Lin Yi rubbed his sore fingers, feeling quite spirited. When had his family ever been this wealthy? "Cigarettes" and "Fruit" go better together, after all.
Although he had lived two lives—and in his previous one, he had possessed the System for over thirty years and even had billions in wealth for a brief time—he hadn't really lived many good days. Yet, after this little stunt, Lin Yi felt much more open-minded and relaxed.
Just then, Lin Yi noticed one particular comment: "Calling for the Azure Dragon! God 0, please summon the Divine Dragon and let us see something amazing!"
*Azure Dragon? What Azure Dragon?*
Lin Yi exited the stream, opened his browser, and searched. He finally understood—the Azure Dragon was truly something special.
When Lin Yi returned to the stream, he opened the gift menu. The most expensive gift had previously been the 3,000-yuan Cigarette, but now, a much pricier option had appeared. Indeed, it was the Azure Dragon, worth 30,000 yuan—one dragon was worth ten Cigarettes.
Lin Yi clicked it without hesitation.
"ROAR!"
A massive, surging cyan dragon appeared in the center of the screen, letting out a deafening roar at the audience. The piercing sound, seemingly intertwined with the whistling wind, created a sense of indescribable majesty and mystery. The divine, imposing figure in blue robes standing atop the dragon’s head left an indelible image in everyone's minds.
Everyone was electrified.
"My god! What was that just now?"
"Is there any expert who can tell us what that was? I've never seen it before!"
"Azure Dragon!"
"Azure Dragon!"
"Azure Dragon!"
The knowledgeable viewers began spamming the chat.
"I finally got to see the legendary Azure Dragon in a stream."
"It's so dominant, but it was too short; I didn't see it clearly enough."
"Did God 0 come riding on an Azure Dragon?"
Just as some viewers were still regretting not seeing it clearly:
"ROAR!"
"ROAR!"
"ROAR!"
The dragon's roars began to echo incessantly across the screen. The Azure Dragon’s effects were completely different from the Cigarettes, offering a different kind of shock. If there was a difference, it was that it better showcased the raw power of money.
"Mom, my mom just asked if I’m raising a dragon because it’s been roaring non-stop! I’m online, it's urgent, how do I answer her?!"
"Is 001 a secret account for a billionaire? So generous. I heard 001 was a zero-level account earlier; this has to be the alt of some major tycoon."
"I have to follow the girl God 0 is gifting. God 0, don't misunderstand, I’m just admiring, really!"
"Xiaobei’s stream has 530,000 people now. This is terrifying. God 0 single-handedly pushed her to be number one on Doulang."
With this one move from Lin Yi, Xiaobei’s follower count had surged by over a million. In Doulang, 99% of streamers never broke 10,000 concurrent viewers. This terrifying number made her a strong contender for the title of "Doulang’s Top Streamer."
"This is terrifying. You can't understand the world of the super-rich. God 0 has already spent 30 million on Cigarettes; that must be a record, right?"
"30 million! I guess we won’t be seeing Xiaobei much longer; the streamer is probably going to go off and live a 'private' life with God 0."
"How many more Azure Dragons can God 0 send?"
"At least 100!"
"I bet he sends 999."
The audience began speculating how many Azure Dragons Lin Yi would ultimately send.
[Commoner 001 sent Azure Dragon x666]
As Lin Yi clicked the final Azure Dragon, he finally ended his night of "sin." It wasn't that he didn't want to keep going; it was that his account was out of money. He had only topped up 50 million earlier—30 million on Carnivals, and 19.98 million on Azure Dragons.
He was too lazy to top up again. He’d send this much for now. Even though it wasn't his own money and he could spend it however he liked, he didn't want to attract too much attention.
