In the years following Huo Zhanji and the others' departure, the capital of the Star Luo Empire, Star Luo City, was filled with the smell of gunpowder, the sky was gloomy, and dark clouds could bring a downpour at any moment.

Less than a third of the city wall on the north side of Xingluo City remains, yet it is still visible that defensive lines composed of soul tools are everywhere. The other three city walls are no different, protecting the city like a steel forest.

However, just outside this steel forest, there is an even wider steel forest. A hundred miles north of Xingluo City, there is a chilling killing intent everywhere. In the sky, there are countless soul-guided detection devices, all pointing towards the direction of Xingluo City.

At this moment, Huo Zhanji did not deal with the conflicts between those countries. As the Heavenly Dao, he could not interfere too much in the operation of a world. Unless the world was destroyed, he might take action, but of course, it would only be a possibility.

Upon arriving at Shrek Academy, Huo Zhanji quickly reached Seagod Island. Before coming, he had scanned the entire Shrek City with his divine sense and found that most people had gone to participate in the battle, leaving only enough basic combat power to operate. Even the Heaven-Mending Pavilion he had established only had some gatekeeper disciples left behind, while the rest of the disciples had gone to assist in the battle.

"I hope they know what's good for them. If they dare to harm my disciple, I will restart Douluo Continent." Huo Zhanji flicked his sleeves and came to the Golden Tree. He reached out and used the power of the Heavenly Dao to easily take out Mu En's soul from the Golden Tree.

"What happened yesterday is what happens today. I said I would resurrect you the day I become a god!" Huo Zhanji murmured, looking at Mu En's illusory soul.

Huo Zhanji swiftly formed hand seals, and a massive golden magic circle appeared beneath his feet, instantly rising up as dense Heavenly Dao power gradually seeped into Mu En's soul.

At this moment, a physical body slowly took shape, and under the entry of Mu En's soul, its appearance gradually changed. Mu En, who was originally old, gradually became younger. If Mu En was kind and approachable before, then he was now full of vigor and spirit.

When Mu En opened his eyes, he was slightly taken aback when he saw the person in front of him, but he quickly realized what was happening: "Zhan Ji, you have successfully become a god?"

"Yes, teacher, I have traversed this path. From now on, there will be no more restrictions on divine positions in the world. I used my divine power to reshape your body. This body has enormous potential. Combined with your previous cultivation, you can achieve divine status as long as you overcome the three calamities and nine tribulations," Huo Zhanji said.

"Silly child, your teacher knows how you feel. Do whatever you want to do. Your teacher won't stop you," Mu En said, pulling Huo Zhanji's hand.

"I won't interfere too much with the operation of Douluo Continent. I'm going to bring them all back now." Huo Zhanji said and disappeared from the spot.

In the camp of the Sun and Moon Empire's army, Ju Zi, dressed in fiery red armor, stood silently in front of the command tent, gazing at the distant city walls of Xingluo City.

"Four years have passed, and he still hasn't appeared. Ever since that day you single-handedly took over the Mingdou Mountains, I would never easily unify the Douluo Continent if you wanted to. Will you still acknowledge your son? It doesn't matter if you don't. It was my selfishness to begin with. When you fell into a coma while trying to save us..." Ju Zi murmured. At this point, she was also afraid that Huo Zhanji would suddenly return, making everything she had sacrificed go to waste.

(The coma mentioned here refers to the time he was in the Jingyang Mountains.)

.........

"By order of the Empress and the God of War, our Sun Moon Empire, grateful for the benevolence of Heaven and Earth, and unwilling to commit further bloodshed, will allow the Star Luo Empire to surrender if it hands over Duke Dai Hao of the White Tiger. Any further resistance will result in the massacre of the entire city!"

The enormous sound was amplified by the soul-guided amplifier and traveled towards Xingluo City, quickly covering the entire city.

At this moment, everyone in Xingluo City heard it, including Huo Zhanji who had arrived in an instant. Huo Zhanji did not want to interfere too much, but quietly looked down. His main purpose in coming here was to bring back Shrek Academy and his sect.

At this moment, the people of Xingluo City still wanted to put up a last stand. The four Limit Douluo, namely Elder Xuan of Shrek Academy, Long Xiaoyao and Ye Xishui, the two Limit Douluo of Butian Pavilion, and Du Busi of Body Sect, guarded the four directions respectively, supporting the last soul guide protective shield.

Orange coldly watched the Star Luo Empire's last stand and ordered, "Use that soul tool."

Kong Lao nodded beside him. A large group of soldiers pushed out a soul tool that looked like a tower. If anyone present could recognize how powerful this soul tool was, it would probably be Huo Zhanji, who was watching coldly from the clouds. This soul tool was the same god-killing soul tool that Huo Zhanji had seen before.

"When I was injured, I shattered that soul tool into pieces, and you guys were able to replicate it? I really underestimated you. Interesting, it's time for me to make my move." Huo Zhanji said calmly, while preparing to strike at any moment.

Just as the god-slaying soul tool unleashed a world-destroying attack, Huo Zhanji from the clouds flashed and instantly appeared above Xingluo City, blocking the attack with a wave of his hand.

Ju Zi and the others stared in astonishment at the sudden appearance of Huo Zhanji, a sense of indescribable fear rising in their hearts.

Huo Zhanji looked at them expressionlessly and said coldly, "Ju Zi, I can ignore you messing with others, but Shrek Academy, the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, the Tang Sect, and the Body Sect are under my protection, and I have no choice but to intervene." With that, he waved his hand, and a powerful force swept up the god-killing soul tool, instantly shattering it.

The unparalleled pressure caused even the usually composed Elder Kong beside Ju Zi to change color, exclaiming, "This is a soul tool of god-slaying level! How could you dissipate this attack with a wave of your hand?"

Ju Zi looked at Huo Zhanji, their eyes met, and Ju Zi's eyes immediately reddened. "Why? Why did you come back at this time? Why?!"

Kong Deming subconsciously controlled his Silver Moon Divine Light Shield to contract inward, trying to forcefully suppress Huo Zhanji who was walking step by step.

"Insolence!" Huo Zhanji sneered, and the silver moon divine light shield shattered instantly.

Kong Deming stared at Huo Zhanji in shock, then immediately stepped back, creating distance between himself and Huo Zhanji.

"Consider this a lesson for you. If you dare to offend me again, it will be your death next time. I mean what I say," Huo Zhanji said coldly.

At this moment, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Corps quickly surrounded Huo Zhanji.

On the Xingluo City side, everyone was taken aback by Huo Zhanji's sudden appearance. Huo Zhanji, who had disappeared for four years, had suddenly returned. But what Huo Zhanji said the next second left everyone present at a loss.
