Douluo's Soul Power increases by two levels every year

Chapter 655 Compensation

The remaining divine soul of the Rakshasa god was directly blasted into dust by the god of defense, becoming invisible to the naked eye!

The remaining divine essence was blasted out of the boundary by the God of Defense, and was beyond dead.

To be honest, the God of Defense's methods were a bit crude. The God of Asura even glared at the God of Defense, but ultimately said nothing—the God of Rakshasa was destined to die, and how he died was not something that could be discussed. Moreover, the God of Asura couldn't afford to give the God of Defense a hard time right now, lest this rogue act arrogantly, which would be bad for everyone.

Moreover, the God of Defense was right about one thing: if you want to live, don't court death. This is a wise saying. What the Asura God likes most is that all the gods in the divine realm abide by the law and have no ulterior motives. Then the divine realm will naturally be peaceful!

But then again, regardless of whether this is even possible, the fact that these words came from the mouth of the God of Defense made the God of Asura feel very uncomfortable!

Looking across the entire divine realm, isn't the most troublesome one the God of Defense?

"So be it! Now that Rakshasa is dead, Defense, come back to the God Realm with me!" The Asura God gave the God of Defense a deep look, then sighed almost imperceptibly and said softly.

Admittedly, the Asura God was unwilling to bring the God of Defense back to the God Realm, lest any more trouble arise.

But we can't let the god of defense roam freely outside!

Before the centennial deadline arrives, it's better to keep the God of Defense in the God Realm than to let him run around. At least the central authority of the God Realm can keep him in check.

While out of sight, out of mind, the problem is, what if the God of Defense causes any more trouble? With the five great god-kings not around, who can stop him?

Since there are only a hundred years left anyway, the most important thing is to ensure that the God of Defense is safely sent to the deep space of the universe!

"You're leaving already!?" Asura's voice fell, thinking that the God of Defense would obediently return to the God Realm with him, but unexpectedly the God of Defense let out a strange cry of surprise, clearly not wanting to return to the God Realm so easily.

Upon hearing this, the Asura God frowned and said with some displeasure, "Defense! What more do you want?!"

The Asura God did not want to clash with the God of Defense, but to say that he dared not would be to underestimate the Asura God. Now that the external threat of the Rakshasa God had been eliminated, if the God of Defense continued to cause trouble, the Asura God would not mind fighting with the God of Defense. Of course, the Asura God believed that the God of Defense would not be so unwise, since everyone's successors were in this realm, and fighting here would not benefit anyone!

The God of Defense completely ignored the Asura God's threat, leisurely yawned, and said, "Asura! You're shameless!"

"The Rakshasa's resurrection is a direct result of your divine realm's negligence. Now that the Rakshasa is wreaking havoc on this world, my successor is forced to clean up your mess. As a god of law enforcement, don't you feel ashamed?!"

Having said that, the God of Defense was not angry, but simply looked calmly at the God of Asura.

The God of Defense's meaning is clear: just as beasts leave their skins and geese pluck feathers as they fly by, the mistakes of the central authority of the divine realm should naturally be borne by the central authority itself. Why should the defense lineage do all the work for nothing?!

If it were any other god, it would be fine. All the gods in the divine realm are one, and the affairs of the central authority of the divine realm are the affairs of all the gods. There is no need to make such a clear distinction. But the God of Defense is different. The attitude of the Asura God and the Evil God in the central authority of the divine realm before made him very unhappy!

The god of defense will not suffer losses!

"Defend!" Upon hearing this, the Asura God immediately shouted, his divine power surging, but when it landed on the God of Defense, it was like a gentle spring breeze, posing no threat whatsoever!

The God of Defense remained as steady as Mount Tai, unmoved, and did not provoke the God of Asura.

The Asura God stared intently at the God of Defense, and the atmosphere instantly became tense. Caught in the middle, Han Feng couldn't help but swallow hard.

To be fair, with Han Feng's current strength, he should be able to protect himself in a battle between two God Kings. But this is ultimately a battle between God Kings. If he loses control, the Douluo Continent will not be able to withstand it!

However, just when Han Feng thought the God of Asura and the God of Defense were about to clash, the God of Asura's gaze suddenly fell upon Han Feng, a strange light flashing in his divine eyes. Then, his tone changed abruptly, the previously confrontational aura vanished, and he said to Han Feng in an as amicable manner, "In that case, let the new God of Defense decide!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Asura God appeared before Han Feng. Without the slightest hint of bullying, he kindly asked Han Feng, "The matter of the Rakshasa was an oversight by the central authority of the divine realm. It shouldn't have implicated you, gods who haven't yet ascended. As the God of Law Enforcement, I should compensate you!"

"Tell me! What do you want?!"

He acted like a kind and approachable elder!

At this moment, Han Feng was no match for the Asura God, who had existed for hundreds of thousands of years. The Asura God's cunning left Han Feng completely at a loss, and he could only subconsciously turn his gaze to the defensive god on the other side.

Han Feng could roughly guess some of the Asura God's thoughts, but certainly not all of them, so it was best to be cautious.

To Han Feng's disappointment, the God of Defense merely glared back and snapped irritably, "What are you looking at me for?! Do you think a god needs me to make decisions for you?!"

Just kidding. The God of Defense originally intended to train Han Feng. After a hundred years, the God of Defense will eventually leave the God Realm and cannot protect Han Feng for life. It is a good thing to let Han Feng get in touch with the methods of the God Kings in advance. Even if he suffers a loss, the God of Defense can help cover him up and prevent him from being bought by the God Kings in the future and still helping them count the money!

Upon hearing this, Han Feng immediately understood what the God of Defense meant, so he had no choice but to withdraw his gaze and begin to think for himself.

According to Han Feng's own guess, the Asura God's move should have two meanings: one is to appease the God of Defense, and the other is to show goodwill to him.

The former is easy to understand; the God of Defense's domineering and unrestrained nature could indeed force the God of Asura to back down. As for the latter, there's more to it than that.

Han Feng is the successor of the God of Defense, and he even killed the Fire-Devouring Beast of the Evil God before. He should have already been labeled as a traitor, and the central authority of the God Realm should already have some reservations about him—which is indeed the case. Not only Han Feng, but Dai Mubai would also feel the same way.

But the Asura God is a powerful god-king and a law enforcement god of the god realm, so how could it be so simple?

The matter of the Heavenly Fiend God has made the Asura God realize that forcing him will only backfire. It would be better to use a combination of soft and hard tactics, which can at least improve the impression of the God Realm Central Hub in Han Feng's mind. Han Feng does not need to be in awe of the God Realm Central Hub like other gods. As long as Han Feng does not look down on the God Realm Central Hub like the God of Defense does, that will be enough!

If we can't be friends, then let's not be enemies either. Let's keep to ourselves and not interfere with each other. With Tang San mediating, the future God Realm will definitely be more harmonious than it is now!

Thinking of this, Han Feng calmed himself down. Although he understood that what he was thinking was probably not the whole story, he believed that the Asura God did not have any ill intentions towards him.

"Since that's the case, I dare to ask the Asura God King to allow me to bring a few more people into the God Realm when I ascend, so that they may enjoy immortality!" After taking a deep breath, Han Feng spoke calmly.

After much thought, Han Feng only had this one request left.

If you do the math, Han Feng has two first-level godhoods, Qian Renxue has one, Dai Mubai has one, Tang San has one first-level godhood and one god kinghood, and the rest are all second-level or third-level gods. In other words, Han Feng and the others can take five people with them to ascend.

This quantity is not enough.

Han Feng will definitely take Han Dang and Zhang Lingling to the God Realm. Qian Daoliu is not dead, and Qian Renxue cannot leave him alone to wallow in the mortal world. Dai Mubai doesn't have any relatives or friends to help him. His mother has long since passed away, and the Star Luo Emperor and Dai Mubai are mutually disgusted, so he probably doesn't need them. Tang San can take two, but in reality, Xiao Wu also occupies one spot, so there are only two extra ascension spots.

But upon closer examination, the names are: Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, Gu Rong, Liu Erlong, Zhao Wuji, and Flander...

These two ascension positions are clearly not enough to go around. Perhaps Ning Fengzhi and the others themselves may not necessarily insist on ascending to immortality, but for Han Feng and the others, if they cannot ascend to the God Realm together, it will be a regret many years later!

Originally, Han Feng did not intend to force the opportunity, but now that the opportunity is right in front of him, he will suffer the consequences if he does not accept it!

As Han Feng finished speaking, the God of Defense showed no change in expression, but a strange look flashed across the face of the God of Asura.

The change in Shura God's attitude was not so simple. In fact, what Han Feng guessed was exactly what Shura God wanted to do. But besides that, this was also a test of Han Feng by Shura God!

To test Han Feng's character, if he is as ambitious as the Rakshasa God and makes some unrealistic demands, then after Han Feng ascends, the God-Kings might bully the weak; if he is as unruly as the Heavenly Fiend God, then the Asura God will also remind the other God-Kings to be careful in dealing with Han Feng, and not to raise a tiger to cause trouble if things cannot be done!

But Han Feng's answer surprised the Asura God.

To be honest, Han Feng's request was a bit outrageous, after all, it is written into the divine rules that a first-level god should help someone ascend to immortality. But it was also reasonable, at least it proved that Han Feng valued relationships!

Being sentimental can sometimes be a strength, but it can also be a weakness, depending on how you treat it.

At least from the perspective of the God of Asura now, this is a good thing!

If allowing more people to ascend would keep Han Feng in line, then the God of Asura would be quite happy to do so!

Why is the God of Defense so unrestrained?!

Isn't it simply because he's all alone?

Anyway, as long as one person is full, the whole family isn't hungry. If we fight, either you all kill me, or I kill you all. Simple and brutal!

However, if there are family ties, then many things will be different. No matter how powerful Han Feng becomes in the future, he will still have to take some precautions. This is something that the central authority of the God Realm would like to see!

Han Feng, of course, had no idea what the Asura God was thinking, but even if he did, he probably wouldn't change his mind—he couldn't just abandon his teachers for his own carefree life, could he?

Even the god of defense, if given a choice, wouldn't want to be as carefree as he is now!
