The island was meant for concealment anyway; drastically altering the earth veins would be missing the point entirely.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let it be this way—at least this Sky-Piercing Valley is complete, with no risk of being unable to disperse one’s cultivation. That’s sufficient…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking this, Lin Yu turned his head and gazed down the long valley toward the outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There, on the road beyond the valley, a black sedan sped toward them and soon halted at the valley entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The car door opened, and Shadow Three, dressed in a suit, stepped out and bowed respectfully as Lin Yu approached: “Your Eminence!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu stopped beside him and glanced at him. “Speak. What news?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shadow Three bowed deeply. “First, Behemoth is furious about the Yinming Pavilion’s refusal of the mission. Rohan Keller even threatened us in a secret call, saying he’d strike back at our operations in North America.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu raised an eyebrow. “So he actually moved?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shadow Three shook his head. “Of course not. The secret commission on Nansen Island was Keller’s personal act. We refused, but didn’t leak anything—Behemoth has no grounds to act against us.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As for Keller, he merely lost face and reflexively threw around threats.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course, if Your Eminence feels insulted, I’ll put his name on the bounty right away!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu smiled. “No need. Just a clown. Ignore him… Any other news?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shadow Three bowed. “In Europe, Isaac Taber, the head of the Flammarion Academy and universally recognized as the strongest mage, passed away yesterday. Aside from that, no major news.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As for the Eastern occult world you’re most concerned with, there have been several noteworthy developments lately.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yaoxing Society exposed a dark secret: many occultists captured from Biyou Village were imprisoned in the abandoned fortress and subjected to brutal torture to force them to reveal the whereabouts of a certain occultist named Ma Xianhong.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Has it reached this plot point already?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu’s expression turned intrigued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shadow Three hesitated, then whispered: “Your Eminence, I believe this is a prime opportunity to infiltrate the Eastern occult world. Yaoxing Society’s leak included many photos of the fortress—among the tortured occultists are descendants of prominent families, like Zhuge Qing…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Lin Yu chuckled and shook his head. “Don’t even think it. Zhuge Qing is perfectly fine.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“None of the captured are harmed. This leak was staged by the company and Yaoxing Society together—to lure Ma Xianhong out.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shadow Three suddenly understood. “So that’s it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu frowned in thought, recalling the subsequent plot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he knew, this leak was a scheme by Zhang Chulan and the company. Ma Xianhong had indeed taken the bait.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after meeting Ma Xianhong, Zhang Chulan’s behind-the-scenes handler, Qu Tong, arranged three people to ambush them en route, nearly killing Zhang Chulan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The battle involved not only Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao, but also Zhang Lingyu, the heir to the Sky-Piercing Scroll, and two young members of the prestigious Lu family—Lu Lin and Lu Linglong…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From this perspective, it’s a good opportunity to make connections.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking this, Lin Yu smiled and turned to Shadow Three. “The Sky-Piercing Valley is finished. Handle the follow-up as the direct supervisor.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, Lin Yu vanished in a flash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shadow Three bowed slightly toward where Lin Yu had disappeared. “Yes, Your Eminence.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the Biyou Village incident, Ma Xianhong, goaded into it, willingly allowed himself to be captured to confront the board, but while being transported, his backers ambushed the convoy and rescued him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, every single company employee in the convoy died in the attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This brutal approach completely contradicted Ma Xianhong’s character as shown in Biyou Village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, Zhang Chulan suspected the people who rescued Ma Xianhong were the true masterminds behind everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He believed Ma Xianhong’s nature made it impossible for him to endorse such methods, so he conspired with the company to exploit Ma Xianhong’s loyalty and sense of righteousness to draw him out, aiming to sow discord.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after speaking with Ma Xianhong, Zhang Chulan suddenly realized Ma Xianhong’s relationship with the mastermind was not cooperation—it was unequal exploitation, coercion, even control!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Realizing this, Zhang Chulan immediately pursued Ma Xianhong with Feng Baobao and Zhang Lingyu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But halfway there, his ominous premonition came true…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the dim forest, Zhang Chulan frowned at the two men blocking his path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Baobao-jie, Master Xiao, can we finish these two quickly?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Finish this one quickly?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Lingyu sighed. “Zhang Chulan, you’re joking, aren’t you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked up at the sturdy middle-aged man on the left and said softly: “This is the heir of the Chai school’s hardening art, Master Chai Yan—the teacher of Ru Hu, one of the Ten Elders’ two greats.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ru Hu, one of the world’s twin wonders…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chai Yan remained calm. “I merely looked after him for a while. How could I dare call myself his teacher?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So big a name?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Chulan frowned, his expression grave as he turned to the purple-haired youth beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And this one? Is he a known figure in the circle?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not that I know of.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Lingyu admitted honestly. “At least, I don’t recognize him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing their exchange, the purple-haired youth’s expression remained calm, but the bulging veins on his forehead betrayed his embarrassment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He snorted, flicking his hand and sending a barrage of red crystals flying toward Zhang Chulan and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three stepped back instantly, dodging swiftly to either side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The red crystals struck the ground and exploded, erupting into searing flames.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Lingyu’s eyes narrowed. “Watch out—he’s a born occultist!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he finished speaking, the Chai school master moved—his cloth-shod feet shattered the ground, and the recoil launched his body forward like a cannonball toward Zhang Chulan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just before reaching him, Feng Baobao appeared, intercepting Chai Yan mid-charge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, the battle began: Zhang Lingyu against the purple-haired youth, Feng Baobao against Chai Yan, while Zhang Chulan—still recovering from internal injuries since the Twenty-Four Solar Terms Valley—would avoid combat if possible…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just in time…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the battle erupted, Lin Yu appeared atop a nearby tree, watching the fight below and exhaling in relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the Eastern continent lay thousands of miles from the Atlantic, he’d nearly forgotten about time zones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daytime at the training base was already evening here; luckily, he moved fast and had learned the location of the abandoned fortress early enough to arrive in time…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he’d arrived, there was no rush to act.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Doing favors required perfect timing—appear only at the crucial moment!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu slipped his hands into his pockets and watched with interest as Chai Yan battled Feng Baobao below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Unlike the Golden Bell Shield, which requires special qi circulation, this relies solely on the natural flow of one’s own qi-body, combined with relentless physical training… This is the Chai school’s hardening art?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In effect, it bears some resemblance to the hardening techniques of the Four Ghosts of Youli.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Lin Yu analyzed Chai Yan’s methods, he turned his head toward the forest to his right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There, two young people crouched on a tree branch, quietly observing the battle as he did.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man was tall and handsome, with naturally curly black hair and an air of melancholy, like an artistic youth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman beside him was equally beautiful, her features resembling his, with long pink hair topped by a baseball cap and dressed in a pink tracksuit—she radiated the vibe of a schoolgirl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without doubt, these two were Lu Lin and Lu Linglong of the Lu family!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides these two, who were tailing Zhang Chulan to investigate the Rootless Ones, Lin Yu sensed two other watching presences.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One was the third agent sent by Qu Tong—Xiao Xiao, Lu Linglong’s friend who lost an arm during the Quanxing assault.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the second…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu glanced at the rock wall to his right rear and vanished soundlessly from the treetop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously, atop the rock wall, a pink, jelly-like substance with limbs and a face crouched on the edge of the shrubbery, sneaking glances at the battle below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What a show! Truly a show!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If that bastard didn’t see this live, would he cry…?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pink jelly watched the spectacle with delight, gloating to itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, slow, steady footsteps sounded behind it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The jelly froze, retracting its limbs and facial features, becoming a neat pink cube, lying still in the sparse shrubbery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, the footsteps stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The jelly tensed, silently praying it wouldn’t be found.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But no matter how it prayed, the large hand arrived as expected, plucking it from the shrubs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lousy luck…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why the hell are there humans in this dump?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the jelly grumbled inwardly, a face—half-smiling, half-sneering—came into view, shattering all its hopes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1580,"2026-06-20T00:29:28.871Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","e5b2be2090135e800190ab9b4af18bdf38c8a5611f0ba4d1883d8103dfacebbf","the-dimensional-demon-god-s-chat-group-chapter-80","the-dimensional-demon-god-s-chat-group-chapter-78",206,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-dimensional-demon-god-s-chat-group-cover.jpg"]
