Zhou Huan's Reminder to Ju Zi

The following morning, in the banquet hall of the Sun Moon Imperial Palace.

Apart from a few palace maids responsible for serving the dishes, there were only four people sitting in the banquet hall at the moment.

The main seat was empty; Zhou Huan and Zhang Lexuan sat on the left, while Ju Zi and Xu Yunhan sat on the right.

Looking at Xu Yunhan, whose demeanor was composed and poised, and who didn't seem like an eight-year-old at all, Zhou Huan suddenly smiled and said, "The Empress Dowager has raised the child very well. I think this child has the potential to unify Douluo Continent."

Upon hearing this, Ju Zi's eyes lit up, and she immediately said, "Will the lord support us in unifying Douluo?"

However, Zhou Huan waved his hand and said, "No, I said I wouldn't interfere, and I won't. Whether or not you unify Douluo, and how you unify them, is your business."

After hearing Ju Zi, Orange looked somewhat disappointed, thinking to herself, "Then how is what you're saying any different from a fortune teller? Are you sure you're more accurate?"

"However..." Zhou Huan suddenly changed the subject, "I can give you a piece of advice: matters of the Mortal Realm are the responsibility of the Mortal Realm, and matters of the Divine Realm are the responsibility of the Divine Realm."

Actually, Zhou Huan didn't need to tell Ju Zi about these rules of the Divine Realm, but considering that Ju Zi had found a Rare Soul Beast needed for the Floating Pagoda, he would consider this a way of repaying her favor.

That's right. Before the meal, Ju Zi had already sent over the Rare Soul Beast she had collected. There were three in total, one of which was the key to the Floating Pagoda that he needed.

That's why Zhou Huan offered Ju Zi a word of advice, and now it's up to her to see how much she can understand.

Ju Zi was a very clever person; she instantly understood Zhou Huan's meaning and her face lit up with joy. "Thank you for your guidance, sir."

Zhou Huan looked at the Ju Zi carefully, sensing that Ju Zi desire for revenge seemed to be rekindling, so he continued, "Don't be too happy yet. I only said you have a chance to unify the Douluo Continent. But if you want revenge, you need to understand one thing: Deity can protect their families."

Although it was to repay a favor, Zhou Huan didn't want Ju Zi to actually go and kill Dai Hao because of his reminder. That would be hard to explain to Huo Gua. Even if the two weren't exactly close friends, they were still classmates.

As for unifying Douluo and removing the name of the Star Luo Empire, Zhou Huan doesn't care. Besides, Huo Gua has already become a god, so what does a mere human empire have to do with you?

As clever as Ju Zi, she immediately understood the meaning behind Zhou Huan's words. In fact, after learning about the relationship between Yun Han and Dai Hao, she gradually gave up her desire for revenge. However, since Deity cannot interfere in the affairs of human empires, then unifying Douluo is not a problem.

Destroying Star Luo Empire doesn't necessarily mean killing Dai Hao.

Therefore, Ju Zi replied, "I understand, sir."

After Zhou Huan hummed in agreement, she thought for a moment and then added, "Oh, by the way, I don't need to follow that rule I just mentioned."

Upon hearing this, Ju Zi's eyes twitched, and she thought to herself, "I know you're amazing! You don't even need to leave Douluo Continent to become a god, yet you wander around everywhere. Do you think I can't see something's wrong here? That deadbeat Huo Yuhao ran away as soon as he became a god."

Zhou Huan, of course, had no idea that the Ju Zi was internally criticizing him. He continued, "Alright, we've almost finished eating. My wife and I haven't seen the Imperial Garden yet, so we'll just stroll around and take a walk after dinner. You don't need to come with us; just go about your business and pretend we're not here. Oh, and one last thing: there are many ways to unify Douluo. It doesn't necessarily have to be through violence. Subduing the enemy without fighting is the best strategy."

"Yes, sir," Ju Zi and Xu Yunhan replied in unison.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Huan took Zhang Lexuan's hand and left the banquet hall.

After the two left, Xu Yunhan spoke up, "Mother, this Deity really doesn't seem like a Deity; he's more like an ordinary person."

Ju Zi immediately glared at Xu Yunhan: "Watch your words, he's not someone we can talk to!"

Xu Yunhan bowed slightly. "Yes, Mother. Your son has spoken too much." Actually, he didn't have any particular opinion about Zhou Huan, he just felt that this Deity didn't act like a god. What kind of god would be trying to please his wife while eating, constantly putting food on her plate?

In the Imperial Garden, Zhou Huan didn't rush to absorb the Rare Soul Beast's Soul Ring. Instead, he held his wife's hand and strolled leisurely.

Zhang Lexuan suddenly said, "That Xu Yunhan does look quite like Huo Yuhao, especially his eyes, they're practically identical."

Hearing this, Zhou Huan smiled and said, "How could a biological son not resemble him? It's just that Huo Yuhao left early. If he saw Xu Yunhan now, he would definitely be suspicious."

Zhang Lexuan sighed softly, "What a pity."

Zhou Huan gently squeezed his wife's soft little hand and teased, "I didn't expect you, Sister Lexuan, to actually enjoy watching drama and Asura situations. You've changed."

Zhang Lexuan rolled her eyes at her husband. "I didn't."

This is just normal human curiosity, okay? Don't try to slander me out of thin air.

After a pause, Zhang Lexuan suddenly changed the subject and asked, "What you said to Ju Zi at the end, about subduing the enemy without fighting, can it really unify Douluo? It can't be that simple, can it?"

Zhou Huan nodded. "Of course it's not that simple. I reminded her of that only to encourage her to be more restrained in the process of unifying Douluo Continent and to avoid using such drastic methods. As for how to do it, I don't know either. I don't have that kind of rational mind. In this regard, Ju Zi is actually the most capable. Let her rack her brains herself."

Listening to her husband's explanation, Zhang Lexuan replied speechlessly, "You're trying to shift the blame a bit, aren't you? You can't do it yourself, so you just pass it on to someone else."

"Haha." Zhou Huan chuckled, "Isn't that right? But who can blame her for being the powerful figure in the empire? Being a powerful figure isn't easy. Those in positions of authority must fulfill their responsibilities."

Zhang Lexuan nodded slightly and said no more.

At this moment, Zhou Huan suddenly laughed and said, "I thought you were going to ask why I reminded Ju Zi about the rules of the Divine Realm. By saying this, haven't I just given Ju Zi the confidence to destroy the Star Luo Empire?"

Zhang Lexuan gently shook her head and said, "Just as you said before, unifying Douluo is the general trend of historical development. Even if you don't remind Ju Zi now, if Xu Yunhan's generation fails to unify Douluo, what about the next generation? So, it's better to take advantage of your influence and Huo Yuhao's influence to let Ju Zi quickly unify the Douluo Continent, so that there won't be generation after generation of wars. That would be much better."

After hearing this, Zhou Huan gently kissed his wife's forehead and said, "My wife understands me best."

Zhang Lexuan blushed slightly and smiled gently, "I'm not stupid."

The two chatted and laughed, strolling through the Imperial Garden for almost half an hour. The main reason was that the Imperial Garden was, after all, the Imperial Garden —it was simply enormous!

At an average pace, it would definitely take at least an hour to walk the entire distance.

Zhou Huan and Zhang Lexuan weren't in a hurry; they were just there for sightseeing, so they strolled around for quite a while.

After strolling through the Imperial Garden, the two returned to their room to rest. Zhou Huan could then use the Rare Soul Beast he had acquired that day to unlock the Floating Pagoda Sixth Floor.

As expected, the Floating Pagoda Sixth Floor was successfully activated.

As Zhou Huan expected, this was still a world of artifacts, a Blade World, and a world of red Godhead!
