"Your Majesty, such simplification holds no meaning," said the Old Lord, "The extinction of Heaven and Earth is unavoidable; it is a natural law."
"Then why can't we use a gentler method to upgrade this world? He holds such vast energy, so many remnants of Heaven and Earth. Is it so difficult to fuse them into this world or his original world and have all beings migrate to the new world?"
Li Ping'an's emotions were somewhat agitated:
"Even if we take ten thousand steps back, letting the beings become weightless infants and giving them a chance to reincarnate, is that so hard to achieve?"
The Old Lord said, "To open an everlasting world requires the power of thought from these beings."
"So they must die?
"Most of them don't know what's happening. They just muddle through life, counting wages, harvests, planning how many days they can have a meal with meat and drink some wine, then inexplicably, the world collapses, and they are sacrificed?"
