Anchored objects can be used in combat, and as the Domain’s power within them grows, they provide additional enhancements.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, Krafft Starwhisper handed him a brown leather-bound handwritten notebook.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rod flipped through it briefly and realized it contained his personal insights on anchoring Domains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hmm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anchoring a Domain does not directly strengthen the user.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rather, it extends the Domain onto an anchored object when the user’s physical body cannot contain it fully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The strength of the user’s own Domain does not immediately change, but it can gradually be absorbed and dissolved through feedback from the anchored object.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It is indeed far better than patiently cultivating it oneself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then I won’t be polite.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rod accepted without hesitation and simply thanked him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No need for courtesy. Had your companions not been so numerous, I might have seriously considered marrying my daughter to you. Hehehe—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Father! I’ve told you already—I’m not in that kind of relationship with Rod!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Enough, enough. I haven’t even settled accounts with you for eavesdropping on the whispers from the other dimension. Go back now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rod: “.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This guy is truly asking for death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Laila Starwhisper pouted in annoyance: “I told you the Xieshen  are real! Laila and Rod defeated the Moon Goddess inside the Star-Spirit’s labyrinth! Isn’t that romantic, Father?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Father finds it merely dangerous.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmph! I can’t fathom why Mother ever liked your old-fashioned self!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Laila Starwhisper turned away in a huff; the cloud pillar descended, returning her to the Cloudweave City in the sky. Before leaving, she waved farewell to Rod.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Krafft sighed, shook his head, then turned serious again toward Rod: “One more piece of news, Mr. Rod: a hidden labyrinth in the small hills southeast of Shiying Town appears to be gradually collapsing. Be cautious.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rod was slightly stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The small hills southeast of Shiying Town?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hidden labyrinth?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s none other than Shuangzhi Mountain—the Crystalwing clan’s labyrinth, “Flawless Crystal Ground”!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I recall we had already resolved the demonic creature problem there, and the maturing labyrinth’s instability was gradually stabilizing—how could it be collapsing now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rod was a man of propriety; after all, they were neighbors. He owed it to them to go and check.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Well, this old man has overstayed his welcome. It’s time to take my leave.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Krafft felt he had said enough; his body was wreathed in swirling cloud mist as a cloud pillar formed beneath him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Until we meet again, Mr. Krafft.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“. Mr. Rod, you once told my son that Laila isn’t your type—was that truly your meaning?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm. Laila is a bit thin.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had wanted to say flat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But saying that in front of her father would be inappropriate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I am an old father, Mr. Rod. Once I sense my own age, I cannot help but plan for their futures.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Krafft’s figure merged into the faint cloud pillar—elegant and dangerous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You are a man of feeling and loyalty, though you have too many women. But I care only whether Laila’s future will be happy and safe. And Laila does have some fondness for you. Therefore, you remain the top candidate for our Cloudweave City’s son-in-law.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“.?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So you mean, when the time comes, you’ll pressure me into marriage like you pressured your son?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cloud pillar shot skyward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Cloud Jingling ’s form vanished entirely, along with the thick white clouds above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunlight poured once more from the horizon, spilling across the land.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tally glanced around, then crept close stealthily: “Master, if you’re really dragged up there, you can ignore the other women—but please, take Tally along as your foot warmer. Otherwise, Tally will truly starve to death.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Aren’t you a personal toilet?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Toilets can warm feet too~~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The succubus clung to him with no shame, smiling sweetly until it made one sick.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tree spirit Vivian, who had been watching silently, strolled over and linked arms with Rod on the other side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She blinked her large, luminous white eyes innocently, gazing straight up at him, her smooth chin resting against his bicep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Rod, marry a wife? Leave?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not leaving. I’ll spend the rest of my life in the forest. If I marry, it’ll be Vivian.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vivian clearly didn’t understand the romantic line, but nodded earnestly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her small hand slid down and nestled in Rod’s palm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey hey hey! What about Tally? Will you marry Tally too?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re a personal toilet. Toilets can’t be wives, and they’re confined to a five-square-meter bathroom.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tally froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not angry—instead, she grew excited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She panted as if lost in fantasy: “So… when the wife, Vivian, isn’t looking—or when she’s out watering the trees—you’ll sneak into this little room, listen to Vivian’s footsteps, and fuse tightly with Tally?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hehehe—then Master, remember to bind Tally in toilet form every day, and visit at least eight times!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t try to understand the succubus’s logic—it’s borderline insane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fact that the Crystalwing clan’s dwelling, the Flawless Crystal Ground labyrinth, was on the verge of collapse was no small matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rod did not linger; he immediately summoned the elf Kalist to accompany him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vivian clung to him with a blank, dazed expression, unwilling to let go. In truth, aside from the period of the [Lust Mark], the tree spirit girl rarely engaged in physical contact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At most, she’d kiss him when greeting, then drift away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rod actually preferred her clinging—her fragrance was pleasant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kalist greeted him with: “So this is the Cloudweave City’s son-in-law?”—her jealousy and sarcasm thick.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But upon hearing of the Flawless Crystal Ground, she immediately grew grave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A labyrinth’s collapse is dangerous no matter how you look at it. Shuangzhi Mountain is too close to Shiying Town—its effects are unpredictable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1182,"2026-06-20T19:55:32.419Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","efbd55d7fdad0c351e631826c2baaa7726bac3e21ceccef8b6416190b5681e06","i-m-a-forest-warden-why-am-i-enslaving-a-succubu-chapter-701","i-m-a-forest-warden-why-am-i-enslaving-a-succubu-chapter-699",704,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-m-a-forest-warden-why-am-i-enslaving-a-succubu-cover.jpg"]
