Ch. 531Humans and Soul Beasts
Tang Wulin challenged Gu Yue and the ferocious beasts to take responsibility for the soul beasts’ distorted ecosystem, then agreed to help them under strict conditions. He began restoring the Lake of Life, while Huo Yutong reassured the Spirit Pagoda guards and watched for danger.
- Tang Wulin argued that soul beasts’ internal predation, not just human hunting, had driven their decline, and Gu Yue admitted their numbers could not endure without change.
- Tang Wulin agreed to support the soul beasts in return for their cooperation when he needed help, while forbidding unapproved attacks on humans; Gu Yue accepted after Di Tian urged her to trust him.
- Tang Wulin led the ferocious beasts to the nearly dried-up Lake of Life and unleashed a vast green-gold power that spread across the Star Dou Great Forest.
- Spirit Pagoda experts saw the forest covered in green-gold light, and Huo Yutong told them Tang Wulin was negotiating with the ferocious beasts and that soul beast attacks might stop.
- Huo Yutong held Na'er’s hand and watched the forest, concerned that Tang Wulin would be weakened and ready to intervene if the ferocious beasts threatened him.
