Do You Even Understand Soul Beast Ecological Balance? Sustainable Killing

Beneath the Sky Screen.

Cries of astonishment rose one after another.

Lu Xuan had said only a few words, yet the amount of information was overwhelming.

"Dark Devilgod Tiger? A Myriad-Year Soul Beast whose cultivation rivaled a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, growing and evolving by devouring? There was actually such a heaven-defying Soul Beast in the world?"

"So the Supreme Douluo's martial soul was a Mutated Seven Kill Sword. No wonder he was so murderous. As far as I know, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's Sword Douluo was also a notorious killer in his youth!"

"Don't you think the Supreme Douluo was somewhat evil? He actually grew stronger by devouring souls. Wasn't that the very definition of a Fallen? And His Holiness the Pope's martial soul was pretty evil too."

"Heh. You were picking on the Supreme Douluo because he was in another spacetime, huh? Go repeat that in Spirit Hall if you had the guts. You must have eaten bear guts to dare slander the Pope."

"Since devouring power was not tolerated by the world, how did the Supreme Douluo grow into a Limit Douluo? Did he kill his way up the entire time?"

"You all noticed so much. Was I the only one who felt sorry for His Holiness the Pope after the Supreme Douluo bullied her into tears? Boohoo, His Holiness the Pope was made to cry by the Supreme Douluo on the very first day..."

Lu Xuan coldly watched the sobbing Bibi Dong.

"If you chose to cry and run away from every problem, then you could get lost right now. Whether you rolled back to Spirit Hall or went somewhere else, you could fend for yourself!"

"I would rather have you talk back to me than look this cowardly."

Bibi Dong's sobbing came to an abrupt stop.

Through tear-filled eyes, she said:

"Teacher, I'll listen to you."

Handing the right to choose over to someone else was also a form of escape.

But at the very least, she had still made a choice.

Lu Xuan sighed. He reached out and patted the young Bibi Dong's head.

"I don't want to force you, but sometimes, if you don't force yourself, then by the time disaster comes and you realize how weak you are, it will already be too late!"

Outside the Sky Screen.

Almost every viewer felt that Lu Xuan was manipulating her.

However.

In the Papal Palace, the gorgeous woman seated upon the Papal Throne gently closed her eyes. Two silent streams of tears slid down her smooth cheeks.

Pope Bibi Dong understood better than anyone that Lu Xuan had never been spouting alarmist nonsense. That was why she hated the weak version of herself in the Sky Screen more than anyone.

Yet that weak Bibi Dong was undoubtedly fortunate.

Saintess Bibi Dong would never know that, if not for Lu Xuan's appearance, she would suffer such agonizing experiences in the future that she would be unable to live or die.

"Fool, you need to listen to Teacher."

Bibi Dong murmured softly, seemingly speaking to the other version of herself within the Sky Screen.

The Sky Screen's timeline—

The warmth of Lu Xuan's palm gave the dejected Bibi Dong a sliver of comfort. Instinctively, she rubbed against it like a kitten. After gathering herself, Bibi Dong asked in a small voice:

"Teacher, then if one day, like the Dark Devilgod Tiger being hunted by Soul Beasts, I were hunted by Soul Masters across the entire continent, what should I do?"

Lu Xuan said irritably:

"Are you stupid? No matter how strong the Dark Devilgod Tiger was, wasn't it still a beast?"

"Beasts are stupid. Are you stupid too?"

"I killed and killed my way to the limit, yet no one was shouting for my death."

Huh?

The young Bibi Dong stared at Lu Xuan blankly, feeling as though her brain was about to burn out. Why did this seem different from what she had imagined?

Lu Xuan asked:

"Tell me, should the Fallen be killed?"

"They should."

"Should bandits, robbers, and bad people be killed?"

"They should."

"Could Soul Beasts be killed?"

"They could."

Lu Xuan rolled his eyes.

"Then there you have it! Could you kill every Fallen and bad person in the world? As for Soul Beasts, I didn't massacre land Soul Beasts too much. I was afraid of wiping them out."

"So I always went to kill in the sea. Could you kill all the Sea Soul Beasts?"

"Those Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts in the sea were all enormous gluttons! Which one of them didn't eat more in a day than you could kill? And there was that Deep Sea Demon Whale King, already at nine hundred and ninety thousand years of cultivation. It only needed one final step to completely transform into a dragon. That thing was the biggest coward of all. Who knew how many hundred-year, thousand-year, or even Myriad-Year Soul Beasts it ate in a single meal!"

"So why did I kill several Hundred-Thousand-Year Sea Soul Beasts in succession? Because those giant monsters ate too much! The sea was my exclusive hunting ground. Did they think they could gorge themselves there as they pleased?"

"Did you even understand what Soul Beast ecological balance was? What sustainable development was?"

"It wasn't that we didn't kill them. We killed them with rhythm, with planning, sustainably!"

Lu Xuan snorted.

"Thanks to how much I killed over the past few years, the Sea Soul Beast population had exploded. Even the Sea God Island's High Priest gave me a medal in thanks!"

The young Bibi Dong was completely dumbfounded.

All of a sudden, she felt that Lu Xuan had not been wrong to call her an idiot.

She really was a little dumb...

Not only Bibi Dong, but even the viewers outside the Sky Screen felt as though Lu Xuan had ground their intelligence into the dirt.

"Holy shit, you could actually do it like that? I have to say, the Supreme Douluo was fucking talented!"

"Damn, I did the math. There were dozens of times more land Soul Masters than Sea Soul Masters, but compared to the Soul Beasts in the vast sea, the number of land Soul Beasts was barely a drop in the ocean!"

"This was what a true master was! Supreme Douluo, hurry up and write a book. Not long ago, I saw even a level-29 loser shamelessly publishing martial soul theories. The Supreme Douluo should lead the Soul Master world down the path of sustainable development!"

"Exactly. Humans lived on land, so subconsciously we always thought land was the whole world. But the ocean was far larger than land, and most Soul Beasts in the world lived in the sea! Were the few Soul Beasts hunted by Sea Soul Masters even enough for one meal for the Deep Sea Demon Whale King?"

"I'm curious. Why didn't the Supreme Douluo kill the Deep Sea Demon Whale King?"

The Papal Palace.

Bibi Dong could not help but laugh, blooming into a smile.

As expected of Teacher. His ideas were strange and unconstrained, yet they held up to scrutiny. Once he said it, it really did make perfect sense!

But some crew-cut boy in Soto City flew into a rage and roared loudly.

"Fallacious nonsense! It's all fallacious nonsense!"

"Evil power like devouring should not exist!"

As for why that asswipe did not utter a single fart when Tang San obtained the Eight Spider Lances and used devouring in the future, that was highly debatable.

Meanwhile, somewhere in the deep sea.

Numerous Hundred-Thousand-Year Sea Soul Beasts trembled in fear. Terrified, they could not help stuffing themselves with several huge mouthfuls of food. After calming down a little, they remembered that this spacetime did not have Lu Xuan. Overjoyed, they burst into tears, then happily stuffed themselves with several more huge mouthfuls of food.

Among the many "gluttons," the greatest glutton of all, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, glared viciously at Lu Xuan in the Sky Screen.

"Hmph, human. The only reason you dared not touch this king was because you feared this king!"

"You were fortunate not to be in this spacetime. Otherwise, this king would show you what a peak nine-hundred-and-ninety-thousand-year Soul Beast was, what a dragon-transformed colossal beast was!"

At this moment.

Within the Sky Screen, Saintess Bibi Dong asked on behalf of countless people what they wanted to know.

"Teacher, then why didn't you kill the Deep Sea Demon Whale King?"

"Wasn't it the biggest glutton of them all?"
