Return to the Douluo Continent

Douluo Continent, Star Dou Great Forest.

The once silent Lake of Life suddenly trembled slightly, and a fist-sized white sphere of light on the lake surface slowly expanded outward, forming a white circular channel with a diameter of over two meters.

Immediately, two figures leaped out from the white passage.

It was Zhou Huan and Snow Empress who returned from the Abyss Plane.

In fact, after the Abyss Plane was destroyed, Zhou Huan and Gu Yuena directly constructed a dimensional passage between the Abyss Void and the Lake of Life.

Normally, constructing such a dimensional portal is not easy. However, Zhou Huan's realm has already reached the God King level, and his understanding of space has reached an extremely profound level. With the help of Gu Yuena, who has recovered to the strength of High God-level, it only took a few days to construct this temporary dimensional portal.

Based on Zhou Huan's current understanding of planes and universes, both the Abyss Plane and the Douluo Plane are actually worlds within the same large universe.

This vast universe can be viewed as a beehive, with different planes being different cells. Constructing a plane passage is essentially just opening a connecting door between different cells.

As for Zhou Huan's previous life's Blue Star, it was obviously impossible for the Douluo Continent, and they were even different in dimension.

Therefore, even though Zhou Huan has now reached the God King level, he still cannot find his way back.

Zhou Huan could only sigh helplessly at this.

However, this sense of loss was only momentary, because Zhou Huan understood that the most important thing now was not to return to Blue Star, but that he had returned to the Douluo Continent, and that the battle with Tang San was inevitable.

Unless Tang San hands over Tang Hao, which is obviously impossible, since making Tang Hao the master of the Douluo Master of the Plane was originally Tang San's plan.

Although Zhou Huan despised Tang San was indeed not the kind of person who didn't care about his father's life or death.

Therefore, a fight against Tang San is inevitable.

Zhou Huan still needed to think carefully about what to do.

But the first thing is definitely having allies.

Although the Douluo God Realm is not yet under Tang San's complete control, Zhou Huan cannot be foolish enough to attack the Douluo God Realm alone, which would turn Deity who were not originally enemies into enemies.

However, winning over the other Deity in the Douluo God Realm, especially Tang San's greatest rival— the God of Destruction —is not an easy task, since they don't even know Zhou Huan.

The God of Destruction is far away, but the Silver Dragon King is clearly right before our eyes.

As soon as Zhou Huan and Snow Empress emerged from the dimensional portal, they were greeted by Gu Yuena, as well as Di Tian and Bi Ji.

Zhou Huan valued the Silver Dragon King as a potential ally, so he walked over with a smile and said, "Sister Gu Yue, thank you for your hard work in making this return so smooth."

He still had to say the polite words, and Zhou Huan was never the kind of person who would show off just because he thought he was on a higher level than others.

Before Gu Yuena could speak, Di Tian's face twitched when he heard Zhou Huan's address to his master. He cursed inwardly, "You call my master 'sister,' so what am I supposed to call you? Second Uncle?"

Unfortunately, before Zhou Huan returned, the master told him that Zhou Huan had already become a God King level expert, so Di Tian could only mutter nonsense in his heart.

After all, he couldn't even defeat God King level.

As for Gu Yuena, she was already used to this form of address and Zhou Huan's shamelessness, so she also smiled and said, "Welcome back."

Then, Gu Yuena asked, "What are your plans next?"

She is a very direct person, and she never talks nonsense.

Zhou Huan's return to the Douluo Continent is undoubtedly driven by a desire to avenge the near-death experience he suffered years ago, but Gu Yuena understands that their current strength is still too weak.

A God King level being combined with a High God-level being cannot possibly confront the Douluo God Realm head-on. Even if not all the Deity in the Divine Realm will help Tang San has been a god for many years; who knows how many Deity are on his side?

Gu Yuena wasn't an impulsive person. This was evident from her ability to endure in the Lake of Life for countless millennia. She had always been very rational, so she wanted to know Zhou Huan's next plan.

Being an ally is certainly an option, but Gu Yuena is not going to risk the lives of all the Soul Beast to be cannon fodder.

Zhou Huan shook his head and said, "I haven't decided yet. Let's take our time, there's no rush. We have plenty of time."

Zhou Huan, of course, understood Gu Yuena's concerns. He wasn't stupid; did she really think that a God King level could challenge the Divine Realm, fight Tang San, and kill Tang Hao? Did she really think she was the Monkey King causing havoc in Heaven?

Then, Zhou Huan continued, "It's been five years. I need to see my friends first. As for dealing with Tang San, we can discuss that later."

The time flow in the Douluo Plane and the Abyss Plane is basically the same. He spent five years in the Abyss, and five years naturally passed in the Douluo Continent as well. He wondered how Sister Lexuan was doing, and how far Old Wen and Xiao Xiao had grown.

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuena nodded slightly and said no more.

Di Tian seemed hesitant to speak, and Zhou Huan, seeing this, suddenly remembered that there was an elderly father present.

Therefore, Zhou Huan and said, "Senior Di Tian, there's no need to worry, Qiu'er is fine."

Di Tian's lips twitched as he listened, thinking to himself, "You call my master 'sister' and then address me as 'senior,' are you trying to make things difficult for me?"

Poor thing, he, a dignified Beast God, had only received a favor from Zhou Huan because of the Auspicious Beast matter, and now the difference in their strength was vast. So he could only reply with resentment, "Just call me Di Tian. We Soul Beast have always respected strength."

Zhou Huan was naturally unaware of what Di Tian was thinking at that moment, and didn't care much. With a casual flick of his Floating Pagoda, Wang Qiu'er appeared before everyone.

"Qiu'er greets Your Majesty."

As soon as Wang Qiu'er came out, she immediately bowed to Gu Yuena.

There was nothing she could do; she had been afraid of this master who had always dominated her since she was a child, especially now that she knew she had caused such a huge disaster, one that could even bring about the destruction of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Facing Wang Qiu'er, Gu Yuena remained aloof as always. She simply hummed in response, gave Zhou Huan a wink, and then left. After all, they had finished discussing business, and she didn't like such crowded and noisy scenes.

Di Tian looked at Wang Qiu'er, who seemed somewhat disappointed, with a complicated expression. His first thought was, "How come this girl has changed her hair and eye color after being gone for a few years?"

Bi Ji helped Wang Qiu'er up, patted her head, and comforted her, "It's not that the master doesn't like you, it's just... never mind, what's past is past. You've been in human society for so long, isn't there a saying that one must always look forward?"

For some reason, upon hearing Bi Ji's words, Wang Qiu'er felt her eyes welling up with tears, but she clearly no longer had a physical body, so where did the tears come from?

She is now more like a spiritual entity; although she looks no different from a normal person, she is not a real physical body.

Even so, transforming a ethereal soul into a physical soul was no easy feat. It was only when Zhou Huan broke through to the God level that the Floating Pagoda helped her condense it.

Therefore, Wang Qiu'er cherishes her hard-won "new life" very much. At least she can live in the form of a soul entity and can leave the Floating Pagoda for a long time. As long as it doesn't exceed half a year, there won't be any problems.

As for the reunion of Wang Qiu'er, Di Tian Bi Ji, Zhou Huan, being an outsider, saw no need to interfere. So, after bidding farewell, he left the Lake of Life with Snow Empress.

In any case, if he wanted to recall Wang Qiu'er, it would only require activating the Floating Pagoda.

After leaving, Zhou Huan did not immediately return to Shrek, but instead arrived at the Wang Family in Falling Shore City the Star Luo Empire in a few flashes.

With his current cultivation level, he could actually circle Douluo Star in just a second.

Therefore, the journey from the Lake of Life to the Wang Family was just a flash in the pan; the title of "Fast Man" is by no means undeserved.
