Help? What can he do to help Rong Nianbing?

Huo Gua had already entered the Divine Realm, so Rong Nianbing couldn't possibly be unaware of Tang Hao's situation. Therefore, this former God of Emotion wouldn't come looking for Zhou Huan to help the Douluo God Realm, would he?

Although the Tang Family father and son cannot be equated with the Douluo God Realm, Tang San is, after all, one of the Five God Kings, and has a Deity foundation of Seven Element Gods. As long as Rong Nianbing is not stupid, he will not believe that Zhou Huan would unconditionally help the Douluo God Realm.

So, what help can he offer?

Just as Zhou Huan was wondering, Rong Nianbing continued, "Actually, I wanted to temporarily settle my teacher and my wives at Shrek."

Zhou Huan & Zhang Lexuan: "..."

The two were speechless for different reasons. Zhang Lexuan's eyes turned somewhat unfriendly when she heard the words "wives," mainly because she didn't want Rong Nianbing to corrupt her husband.

Of course, Zhang Lexuan had read "Peerless Tang Sect" in the Forbidden Land of Gods and knew that Rong Nianbing had more than one wife, but seeing him in reality, she still felt somewhat disliked someone who had a harem.

However, these things are none of her business; she may not like them, but she won't say much about them.

As for Zhou Huan, he was truly speechless, only feeling that this old guy had played a clever game.

As things stand, Douluo Continent is currently a relatively safe, neutral third-party location.

So, Rong Nianbing's plan was to settle her family at Shrek, have Zhou Huan act as their "bodyguard," and then go fight for the Douluo God Realm herself?

But Zhou Huan couldn't very well refuse such a request.

For Zhou Huan, this matter didn't require him to do anything; at most, it was just a matter of borrowing a place.

After all, even if Rong Nianbing didn't settle his family in Shrek, he could have settled them anywhere in the Douluo Continent, and Douluo Continent wasn't Zhou Huan's.

Although Rong Nianbing did this to protect his family by leveraging Zhou Huan's influence, didn't Zhou Huan also subtly exploit him through Huo Gua before?

Now, this insignificant favor is considered repaying the debt.

Therefore, after a moment of silence, Zhou Huan said, "It's nothing major, just clearing out a few rooms for you on Sea God Island."

Upon hearing this, Rong Nianbing immediately smiled, patted Zhou Huan on the shoulder with an air of familiarity, and said, "Thanks, brother."

Zhou Huan's eyes twitched slightly. "..." No, brother, if you call me brother, Huo Gua can't call me uncle, that would be too embarrassing.

Immediately afterwards, Rong Nianbing added, "I won't let you help me for nothing. After the Douluo God Realm defeats the Purple Maple God Realm, I can help you deal with Tang San. After all, that kid even dared to scheme against me."

Zhou Huan rolled her eyes inwardly, speechless, and muttered to herself, "This handsome guy, I've already received your empty promise."

However, he said aloud, "Oh, Rong... Brother, you have so much confidence in the Douluo God Realm? The Purple Maple God Realm has ten God Kings. In the battle a few days ago, Douluo was defeated without any suspense."

However, Rong Nianbing shook his head and said, "Although the Purple Maple God Realm has many God Kings, their Divine Realm cannot last long. We, on the other hand, with our complete Divine Realm, can wage a protracted war, it's just that..."

Before Rong Nianbing could continue, Zhou Huan chimed in, "The problem is that once a large-scale God War breaks out, more low-ranking Deity will die."

Rong Nianbing nodded solemnly. "There's nothing we can do about it."

Seeing this, Zhou Huan suddenly asked, "You've already escaped that quagmire, so why are you staying there?"

Although Zhou Huan knew Rong Nianbing's personality from the original novel, he still couldn't help but ask one more question when facing the real person.

Does this old guy really have such deep feelings for the Douluo God Realm?

Rong Nianbing sighed softly and explained, "After all, I've lived in the Douluo God Realm for so many years, and I have many good friends Divine Realm. I can't just abandon them and leave. But I also don't want my wives and teachers to be caught in the dangers of war, so I had no choice but to swallow my pride and ask you for help. Yu Hao has always said you're a kind-hearted person, and seeing you in person is truly an eye-opener."

Good heavens!

Zhou Huan almost blurted out, "Good heavens!"

This is the first time I've ever been friend-zoned by a man—no, by two men.

Does being a good person mean you have to do good deeds and help others?

While silently complaining to himself, Zhou Huan asked, "Has the Douluo God Realm already prepared its battle plan?"

Rong Nianbing nodded. "The Assembly of Gods just ended; it was nothing more than a defensive battle. Even if the God of Destruction is unwilling, he has no choice but to fight this way given that his high-end combat power has been completely crushed."

After thinking for a moment, Zhou Huan suddenly shook his head and said, "I don't think your Douluo God Realm can defeat the Purple Maple God Realm so easily. After all, they are fighting with their backs against the wall and have no way out. A defensive battle is definitely not a good strategy. By the way, what did Tang San say at the Assembly of Gods?"

Upon hearing this, Rong Nianbing laugh, "He didn't say anything, it's like he just did whatever the Destruction God King arranged. He wasn't like this before, he used to have so many opinions, now it's like he's taken a mute drug."

After hearing this, Zhou Huan chuckled and said, "This is not a good thing."

The child was quiet, which meant he was up to no good, and Tang San's silence also meant he couldn't possibly be obediently following orders and be a respectable Asura God King.

Rong Nianbing naturally knew that Tang San was no pushover and would not so easily submit to someone else, which was one of the reasons why he wanted to send his family out of the Douluo God Realm.

However, given the lack of evidence, Rong Nianbing couldn't say much and could only reply, "Now that the God of Destruction is in charge of the entire God Realm Hub, Tang San shouldn't be able to cause any major trouble."

Zhou Huan smiled, not saying anything more about Tang San, and simply replied casually, "I hope you're right."

After chatting for a few more minutes, Rong Nianbing left, preparing to return to the Douluo God Realm to send his wives and teachers to Shrek.

At this moment, Zhang Lexuan, who had remained silent throughout, frowned and said, "He's Rong Nianbing, the God of Emotion who inherited the God Position from Huo Yuhao? Sure enough, like teacher, like Disciple —all scumbags."

Zhou Huan: "... No, honey, your focus is a bit off. This isn't the point right now."

Zhang Lexuan gently squeezed Zhou Huan's hand and said, "Yes, that's not the point, but you're not allowed to follow his example."

Zhou Huan: "..." Why would I learn from him? Don't you know that monogamy is actually a protection for men?

A few days later, when Rong Nianbing returned to Shrek, Zhou Huan's pupils dilated when he saw the group of beautiful women behind him. He wasn't envious at all. Damn, this old guy is really lucky with women!
