He was not around and therefore couldn't manage his own territory; even when his territory had been occupied by enemy troops, Zhou Tian had no way to counter those hostile forces at that time.
But now, when Zhou Tian had returned, he obviously wouldn't allow those forces to take advantage of him any longer.
Without a second thought, in a situation where the Deity no longer dared to take action, Zhou Tian's actions became uninhibited. As a result, upon returning to his territory, he immediately issued an order for a comprehensive counterattack. Consequently, with Zhou Tian's command, a massive Beastman army started up at that moment and launched a counterattack against the invading forces.
And while the Beastman army was engaged in combat with those hostile forces, Zhou Tian was not without action. At the same time as the Beastman army commenced the battle, he also found his opponent.
