Reincarnated Rock Prince, you're saying this is Douluo Continent?

Chapter 126: Martial God, shall we kowtow?
The fact that they kowtowed for so long was enough to show their sincerity and respect for Zhongli.

Why did Zhong Li remain unmoved?
Dai Hao and the Duchess looked up at Zhong Li, their eyes filled with confusion and bewilderment.

Seeing this, everyone watched with amusement. Although they were puzzled, they remained silent and simply watched to see how things would unfold.

Zhong Li appeared, but he treated Dai Hao and the Duchess with "cold violence," remaining silent. How could this not raise suspicion?

"Lord Martial God, I beg you, save my son Yueheng..."

Duchess Baihu still wanted to try to save him. After saying this, she kowtowed to Zhongli again, just like a mother who loves her son dearly.

Upon seeing this, Dai Hao hesitated for a moment before following his wife in kowtowing.

He always felt that Zhongli was a bit strange, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

Zhongli stood with his hands behind his back, watching the two of them without moving.

"???"

Everyone, including Dai Hao and the Duchess, was filled with questions.

Having already shown such sincerity, why is this Martial God still silent? Is it not sincere enough?

"Please enlighten me, Lord Martial God..."

Dai Hao cupped his hands in greeting to Zhong Li and said.

Upon hearing this, Zhongli glanced sideways at Dai Hao, his amber eyes scrutinizing him.

The Duchess and Xuanzi looked up at Dai Hao and then at Zhong Li. They were also quite puzzled as to why they were being subjected to emotional abuse.

Everyone says that the God of War Zhong Li is handsome and kind-hearted, so how could he stand by and watch someone die?
Zhongli remained unmoved by the questioning looks from the crowd, and said, "I am Morax, the Demon God of Rock. All I ask for is to live in seclusion in a corner of the world and protect the peace of the people here."

"Although I possess divine power, I also have many regrets in my heart."

"If you can resolve the regret in my heart, what harm is there in me kowtowing to you all!"

Everyone: "..."

Even a dignified god has regrets in his heart?

Wait a minute, something seems off!
They came to ask the God of War to heal Dai Yueheng and Chen Zifeng. As long as the God of War was willing to heal Dai Yueheng, it would be a piece of cake for Chen Zifeng. As for the others, it would be a piece of cake for them as well.
What does the God of War mean by that?
He still has many regrets in his heart, and if someone could resolve them, he would be willing to kowtow to them...

There were intelligent people present, and in a daze, they seemed to understand something, but they vaguely felt that things were not so simple.

The God of War's words seemed to imply that if kowtowing worked, he would be willing to give it a try!
But everyone's status is different; he is a god, while everyone else is just an "ordinary person."

He should seek out a deity who can help him make amends, instead of placing his hopes on ordinary people like them.

Wait, they seem to have figured it out again!

They shouldn't be looking for the God of War; instead, they should place their hopes on the deities who can help them.

"The God of War possesses unparalleled divine power; is there anything he cannot resolve?"

Dai Hao said with some doubt and resentment.

He understood Zhongli's meaning: don't save him!

But he is not willing to give in!

Even if he disliked his wife, Dai Yueheng was still his son, an exceptionally outstanding son.

The deity before them definitely had a way to save Dai Yueheng, yet the other party wanted to "let him die without helping," which was truly heartless.

"Great power can indeed do many things that ordinary people cannot do, and destruction is infinitely simpler than creation."

“Old friends have passed away, and I cannot save them.”

At this point, Zhongli paused, looked at Dai Hao and the Duchess, and continued, "I do not wish to interfere with human choices. All that gods can do is guide humanity in a certain general direction."

“Dai Hao, if I save Dai Yueheng today, will I have to save Huo Yueheng and Li Yueheng tomorrow…” “Why don’t I just declare my authority and suppress the entire Douluo Continent with force? Whoever dares to fight, I will kill!”

"For me, this is a piece of cake!"

Upon hearing this, everyone trembled, and the way they looked at Zhongli changed.

Especially Dai Hao and the Duchess, they were only seeking help from Zhongli and did not want to be ruled by him.

How could a nobleman who rules over others want to be ruled by a god?
"Lord Martial God, this is absolutely unacceptable!"

"Yes, Lord Martial God! The situation is excellent now, so please do not act rashly!"

"..."

"If I rule the Douluo Continent, it will be a world without strife or the oppression of nobles. Whether noble or commoner, they are all my subjects."

"In that case, there will be no more evil spirit masters causing trouble, and everyone will be equal..."

"What a wonderful world this would be! Why don't you all want it?"

Zhongli countered with a question, knowing full well the reason, but he remained silent.

"This……"

The crowd fell silent. If they were commoners, they would naturally be willing to be ruled by the God of War, so that they could rise up and achieve equality for all.

But they are nobles. The interests of nobles are built on the exploitation of commoners. If they don't exploit commoners, what use is the status of a noble?
If the use of force is prohibited throughout the world, what is the purpose of cultivation?
Isn't it all for getting ahead and achieving longevity?

If this rule is prohibited, then all hope for nobles and soul masters will be cut off!

"Martial God, you simply don't want to save my son, Yueheng. Why make it sound so grand!"

The Duchess could no longer bear it, stood up, and said with a frosty expression.

"My son, Yueheng, is just a child. Treating him is just something you do on a whim. Why, why are you unwilling to help?"

The Duchess was not out of her mind, nor did she think about such complicated matters.

As a mother, her only goal was to save her son; she had no other intentions.

Now that the God of War is unwilling to save her, her hopes are dashed, so it's normal for her to go mad.

Dai Hao wanted to scold his wife, but he swallowed the words back.

What reason did he give for scolding his wife?

Dai Yueheng was the wife's son, and also his son.

The God of War's words make a lot of sense, but... Dai Yueheng is, after all, their son.

He knew perfectly well that treating Dai Yueheng would have a chain reaction, but that was a problem for the God of War to consider, not for them!

Zhongli glanced at Duchess Baihu and sighed.

He had made himself clear enough, but the Duchess of Baihu was focused on saving Dai Yueheng and didn't care about anything else that might happen.

They were not related by blood or marriage, had no vested interests, and were driven solely by selfish motives...

Is he being used as a tool god?

"You're being really unreasonable!"

At this moment, Paimon flew to Zhongli's side and pointed at the Duchess of White Tiger.

"Zhongli is unwilling to disrupt the balance on the Douluo Continent, and even less willing to disrupt humanity's choices, so he allows you to develop as you please."

"Today you beg him to save your son, tomorrow someone will beg him to resurrect so-and-so, and the day after tomorrow someone will beg him to unify the Douluo Continent..."
