What are you babbling about?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“...Even as death approaches, you still dare to lie!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu snorted, then raised his right hand, fingers curling inward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, a terrifying suction force materialized out of thin air; the smallest of the Four Ghosts, a dwarf, was lifted off the ground, his chain hammer clattering down as he flew helplessly toward the stone platform, face twisted in terror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thud!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A muffled sound—the black-robed man seized the dwarf’s skull, lifting him into the air with one hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, light blazed from his palm; the dwarf let out a shriek, his entire body trembling violently like a sieve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What kind of demonic art is this?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was startled; the other three of the Four Ghosts of Youli erupted in fury.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wounded one clutched his chest, eyes blazing as he glared at the platform.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other two roared, leaping high into the air, weapons swinging.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, the other black-robed man stepped forward and brought his longsword down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xun Wind Seal: Shaoze Gale!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, torrents of spiritual power surged from the Shaoze acupoint at the tip of his fingers, coiling along the blade into a spiraling, razor-sharp airstream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To onlookers, it appeared as if an invisible sword qi had detached from the blade, slicing swiftly downward toward the giant wielding the great axe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Slish!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood sprayed; the giant’s chest erupted in a geyser, and he crashed to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, the Chang’an constables exchanged uneasy glances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even arrows couldn’t pierce his hardened secret art—and yet this black-robed man shattered it with a single sword stroke!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…What is this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be the legendary sword qi?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that moment, everyone—including Su Wuming and Lu Lingfeng—stared at themselves in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Haoming couldn’t help but feel a quiet thrill, even tempted to utter a few lines of dialogue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But unfortunately, his elder brother had extraordinary hearing—he’d recognize Su Haoming’s voice the moment he spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With no choice, Su Haoming clenched his lips, playing the role of a silent, mysterious master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—No, even that role was hard to maintain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His spiritual power was nearly depleted; the two wind blades he’d just unleashed were his last reserves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Realizing this, Su Haoming subtly shifted his stance, standing silently behind Lin Yu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Lin Yu had finished soul-searching and obtained the Four Ghosts of Youli’s hardened secret art.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Worth far less than Fan Xian’s ‘Dominant True Qi’…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu’s face darkened with disappointment; he shook his head and tossed it aside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, the dwarf’s body launched like a cannonball, slamming into another giant of the Youli clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two collided in midair; the giant who had just leapt upward now plummeted back down at even greater speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boom!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A thunderous crash—the platform cracked beneath them, spiderwebbing with fissures along its edges.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Lai, closest to them, saw clearly: the dwarf’s skull had crushed the giant’s chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both lay twisted, blood streaming from all seven orifices—clearly not alive…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the blink of an eye, two of the Four Ghosts were dead, two wounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire cavern fell silent; all stared at the two black-robed men, their worldviews shattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu leapt down from the platform, walking calmly toward the two severely wounded giants.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the dwarf’s memories, he now understood the nature of the Four Ghosts of Youli—each carried over a hundred lives, and calling them murderers was almost merciful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given that, Lin Yu had no intention of sparing them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two giants, clutching their bloodied chests, gritted their teeth and rose from the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as they reached for their weapons, preparing to fight to the death against this unprecedented foe, Lin Yu’s figure twisted and vanished—only to reappear instantly behind them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“...Huh?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They stared blankly at the spot where Lin Yu had vanished, still unaware of what had happened—then the world plunged into darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thud! Thud!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two bodies, once deemed impervious to blades and spears, crashed to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu didn’t even glance back at the fallen men; he continued forward at the same unhurried pace, expression calm, toward Yuan Lai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Lai snapped back to reality, eyes wide with terror as he stared at Lin Yu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You… who are you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You only wanted to capture the Four Ghosts of Youli—I didn’t steal your immortal arts! Don’t come any closer!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the raw terror on Yuan Lai’s face, Lin Yu finally stopped, speaking in a low, haunting tone:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“All these years, you’ve been harboring the Four Ghosts of Youli?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Lai’s pupils shrank sharply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Wuming realized the implication—and couldn’t help but feel a flicker of schadenfreude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, it’s not me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Lai stumbled backward, babbling incoherently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only when he reached the platform’s edge did he shed his earlier madness—he hurled his bone flute at Lin Yu and roared: “Quick! Kill him!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, he triggered some mechanism and leapt straight down into a hidden passage that had opened beneath him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boom!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thrown bone flute exploded midair before it even neared Lin Yu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu watched Yuan Lai’s retreating back with calm eyes, then lightly stepped forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boom!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A thunderous roar shook the entire platform; the tremor cracked the platform’s surface and precisely collapsed the hidden passage beneath Yuan Lai’s feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Lai stared in horror at the jagged pile of rubble below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could even fall, Lin Yu had reached the platform’s edge and extended his five fingers toward him, expression cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next instant, Yuan Lai’s body froze midair—then shot upward, his neck deliberately guided into Lin Yu’s grasp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the black-robed death soldiers, under Yuan Lai’s command, charged the platform—only to be thrown off balance by the tremors beneath their feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After barely stabilizing their posture, the one they served had already fallen into the hands of the mysterious powerhouse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black-robed soldiers halted, exchanging helpless glances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Lin Yu turned and glanced at them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, every black-robed soldier was struck as if their souls had been ripped from their bodies, sinking into a black abyss, struggling helplessly against suffocating terror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a single heartbeat, all the black-robed death soldiers lost their will to resist, standing frozen, utterly broken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh—huh—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Lai’s struggling gasps came from below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Wuming snapped back to himself, ignoring the presence of the other black-robed man, shouting loudly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Stop!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu’s eyebrows lifted slightly beneath his mask, surprised by Su Wuming’s outburst.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their eyes met; Su Wuming’s heart leapt, yet he forced himself to speak:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My lord… this man is a wanted criminal of the imperial court. If you have no absolute reason to kill him, perhaps you would hand him over to me? I swear by my life—he will receive the punishment he deserves!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, the Chang’an constables grew uneasy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only Lu Lingfeng regained his composure, face flushed with shame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He clenched his teeth and stepped forward, speaking loudly: “What the Assistant County Commander says is also my own view. The Tang Dynasty has its own laws—if you consider yourselves subjects of Tang, then please surrender this man—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mid-sentence, Lu Lingfeng noticed Su Wuming frantically gesturing to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was baffled—had he said something wrong?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a huge mistake!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Wuming glared at Lu Lingfeng with exasperation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The situation is that they’re stronger—can’t you speak more politely?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After mentally rebuking Lu Ling, Su Wuming straightened his expression and bowed to Lin Yu below: “Your martial arts are unparalleled, your bearing extraordinary—I, Su, have lived thirty-six years and have never before encountered anyone like you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Indeed, with your martial prowess, we are no match for you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But this man treats human lives as grass, abducts brides, turns them into red tea, and plunges Chang’an into chaos—his crimes are heinous!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As County Commandant of Chang’an, I must apprehend him and bring him to justice.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Therefore, I humbly beg you, sir, to spare Chang’an, to spare me, to spare the twelve innocent brides who met cruel deaths—let me give their families the justice they deserve!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the end of his words, Su Wuming’s tone grew heavy; he bowed deeply to Lin Yu, his body lowering fully in reverence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1457,"2026-06-20T00:29:28.871Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","12ed7993e15a85651a2b22af72f267e2c160eaa482d9d6eea5aa9dab8a5aabc2","the-dimensional-demon-god-s-chat-group-chapter-38","the-dimensional-demon-god-s-chat-group-chapter-36",206,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-dimensional-demon-god-s-chat-group-cover.jpg"]
