That simply just listen on url path that store in firebase like

private DatabaseReference mUrlReference = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference().child("url")
ValueEventListener urlListener = new ValueEventListener() {
    @Override
    public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
        String url = dataSnapshot.getValue(String.class);
        // Web load here
        webView.loadUrl(url);
    }

    @Override
    public void onCancelled(DatabaseError databaseError) {
        // Getting Url failed, log a message
        Log.w(TAG, "loadUrl:onCancelled", databaseError.toException());
        // ...
    }
};
mUrlReference.addValueEventListener(urlListener);
