After leaving the Hall of All Beings, escaping that human hell, Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan felt only a brief relief before the heaviness returned. On their way back, they saw many monster corpses, which Li Yu had previously killed in an attempt to absorb their energy to achieve rebirth. Li Yifei had thwarted this, leaving those creatures dead for nothing.
Li Yifei sighed; those animals might not have been monsters, just altered by Li Yu to look different. Inter-animal slaughter, according to their nature, was actually normal.
Yet despite the sigh, those things were better off dead; letting them roam free would have been troublesome.
There were no live monsters on the island anymore, including the ants; every single one was dead, piled like a mountain. Even as they passed the creek, the fish inside were dead.
When they returned to the seaside, Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan both felt a bit sentimental; whether human or animal, life is fragile, and one never knows how they might die...
