Chapter 2901 - 2901: The Numbers Don't Add Up

"Shut up!" Su Yang nearly kicked out in anger, saying, "Who told you anything about school? I'm asking you if there's an extra ten billion!"

"Yes, what's wrong?" the Supreme Dragon Emperor replied.

Su Yang asked, "Then, where did these ten billion lives come from?"

"Uh..." The Supreme Dragon Emperor was suddenly bewildered, his mouth agape and unable to speak.

The Human Emperor standing nearby said curiously, "Isn't this normal? This world used to be one World Tree, with life, not just tens of billions! Our Great World has trillions of lives. They have such a large World Tree and developed even better than us, surely have more lives. Even if there are tens of quadrillions of lives, I wouldn't find it strange!"

"A hundred billion more resurrected this time, it must be that other lives in this world were also reincarnated, it's a normal thing!"

The Supreme Dragon Emperor immediately nodded in agreement, "Yes, the Human Emperor is right, that's how it is, I think so too. With so many lives here, a few more being resurrected, what's the problem?"

"The problem is precisely here!" Su Yang said, "You mentioned that the extra hundred billion resurrected were lives from this world previously. Have you ever thought about why only this hundred billion resurrected, while other lives did not?"

"This..." The Human Emperor and the Supreme Dragon Emperor were at a loss, they truly couldn't answer this question at the moment.

"So, Su Alliance Leader, what do you mean?" Liuyun asked softly.

Su Yang looked at the points of light below, speaking solemnly, "If the hundred billion resurrected through reincarnation were your world's previous lives, then there's a problem: why only these more than a hundred billion resurrect-ed, and not the rest? Is there an issue with reincarnation, or is there a problem with the lives in your world?"

"There shouldn't be any problem with reincarnation!" the Human Emperor said, "Reincarnation was created by us; we have tested it countless times, there can't be a problem with reincarnation!"

"Then the problem must come from the lives in this world!" Su Yang looked at Liuyun.

"What problem could there be with the lives in our world?" Liuyun said, puzzled.

"Yes, what kind of problem could the lives in this world have?" the Supreme Dragon Emperor was also surprised.

Su Yang looked at the points of light in the cycle of reincarnation below, said softly, "I cannot clearly describe it to you now, but I suspect this world might ultimately not resurrect too many lives. In fact, I suspect that ultimately only these two hundred billion lives might be resurrected. Other lives may not resurrect!"

"Ah?" The crowd was stunned, and Liuyun exclaimed, "Impossible, right? Our world has countless lives, two hundred billion is just a drop in the ocean. Only reviving this many, how could it be possible? Other lives should also resurrect!"

The Human Emperor also said curiously, "Right, Su Alliance Leader, did you make a mistake? Why would only this number of lives be resurrected?"

"I have said, I cannot be sure if my judgment is correct, it's just my guess." Su Yang said, "We can observe for a while and see what the final result will be. If new lives are born, then my judgment was wrong. If no new lives are born, then regretfully, my guess might be correct!"

The crowd exchanged glances, their expressions growing heavy.

If Su Yang's guess was indeed correct, then the problem would be serious.

Such a large World Tree, ultimately resurrecting only so few lives, wouldn't that imply that the rebirth of these World Trees is limited?

Liuyun's expression was particularly serious, after all, this is his world. Of course, he hoped all lives could be revived, even some past enemies, he'd want them brought back.

Yet, with Su Yang saying only these two hundred billion might be ultimately resurrected, he truly felt unwilling.

The crowd kept their eyes on the scene, and the speed of reincarnation's resurrection was fast.

With Liuyun's full effort to activate it, ultimately two hundred billion points of light were gathered in reincarnation, and then it stopped.

This amount was close to what Su Yang had estimated.

As these two hundred billion lives gradually revived, everything in this world returned to tranquility.

And at this point, the crowd suddenly discovered in astonishment, no new life was born in this world.

Not only was reincarnation unable to bring in new lives, but even the world itself couldn't give birth to new lives.

Before this, the world had been continuously producing new lives. The world was vibrant, flourishing with life.

But now, no new life was emerging in this world.

Two hundred billion lives united together, without resulting in the birth of new life.

This kind of occurrence, how could anyone accept it?

Yet, it happened as Su Yang predicted.

The crowd continued observing here for several years, and it remained the same. The world seemed to have halted in development, only having these many lives, with no new lives being born.

At this, everyone could no longer hold back and went to find Su Yang.

"Su Alliance Leader, what on earth is going on?" Liuyun asked anxiously, "Why haven't new lives been born? Why is this happening?"

Everyone else also looked at Su Yang, as he was the one who first guessed this. Unexpectedly, his guess was confirmed, and everyone was surprised, not knowing why this was happening.

Su Yang's expression was grave, looking at everyone, he spoke seriously, "Everyone, when you were with me on that battlefield, you saw those shattered Star Domains. From your perspective, estimate how many lives might have existed in those Star Domains?"

The crowd was startled, why did Su Yang suddenly bring up this question.

"Su Alliance Leader, weren't we discussing the matter of Liuyun's world?" the Supreme Dragon Emperor couldn't help but remind.

Su Yang said, "I know, but first answer this question!"

The crowd exchanged glances, and the Human Emperor said, "That Star Domain, if it were our Human Clan region, could have trillions of lives. But that was the Guardian Land, the area of the Guardian God. The Guardian God always had few inhabitants, so that Star Domain should have only three hundred billion lives."

"Three hundred billion lives!" Su Yang nodded, speaking softly, "If a Strongest invaded and the First God issued an order for people inside to flee, how many do you think would escape, and how many would not?"
