I accept this commission.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu blinked in surprise. “So quickly?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vlamé glanced at him. “People change. I’m no longer the naive girl I was ten years ago, who believed every human deserved to live in this world.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“To be honest, over the past decade, I’ve killed more than a few human criminals…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She paused, then spoke softly, “Of course, that’s only one reason. Knowing you as I do, once you’ve decided to begin human experimentation, no one can stop you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even if I refuse, the entire Spine Ridge Domain will still turn at your will.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s better that I act myself—so at least I can ensure the subjects I bring are all criminals.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu stared at her, then sighed. “You’ve changed so much. You never would’ve said something like that before.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vlamé smiled. “This is just the beginning. I’ll change even more. That’s what humans are—fickle creatures.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you want a friend who never changes, try getting to know Fllilien. She’s exactly what you’re looking for!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still pushing her disciple?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu rolled his eyes. “Your disciple’s a real piece of work. She’s been staying at my place for nearly a week and hasn’t even stepped out of the guest room. In my homeland, we’d call her a total magic hermit.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A magic hermit…?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vlamé chuckled. “I’d rather call her a mage of the age of peace.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even without battle, she continues to study magic and press forward, just as always.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In this regard, neither I nor my master can match her…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mentioning Vlamé’s master, Lin Yu raised an eyebrow thoughtfully. “By the way, doesn’t your master possess a magic similar to clairvoyance?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vlamé immediately realized what he meant, her expression turning strange. “Did she use magic to spy on you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu replied coolly. “I wasn’t sure before, but now that you’ve said that, it must have been her.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Vlamé’s expression grew even stranger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment’s hesitation, she confirmed, “Was it three months ago?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vlamé’s face cleared with understanding. She sighed. “Then it makes sense. Three months ago, I brought Fllilien to visit my master, and for the first time, I mentioned your name…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Here she paused, then smiled brightly. “Now I finally understand why my master flew into such a rage and threw us out of her magical sanctuary.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I thought back then that she was disappointed by Fllilien’s attitude toward magic.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now I recall—her reaction was far too extreme. Lin, what exactly did you do to her?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu said casually, “Nothing much. She wanted to look, so I opened up completely and let her take a good, long look.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vlamé’s pupils shrank. “And then?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu recalled the sudden disappearance of the watching sensation. “Probably scared her off?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vlamé fell silent, then spoke softly, “No wonder. My master—she’s a mage who’s lived since the age of myths. Her mastery of magic is something I’ll never reach in this lifetime.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu’s face darkened. “Are you sure you’re praising the right person?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course I am!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vlamé replied without hesitation. “My master’s realm is profound, but still within my understanding. Your existence, however, has long surpassed my comprehension—there’s no point even trying to chase you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was true enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saelia had briefly glimpsed his true nature, yet hadn’t collapsed—instead, she’d panicked and fled with surprising energy. That alone proved how powerful she truly was!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vlamé smiled. “Since then, has your master tried spying on you again?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu glanced at her coolly. “Dare she?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She definitely wouldn’t dare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vlamé burst into laughter, imagining her mighty master humiliated and flustered before Lin Yu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she knew, Saelia sought the ultimate end of magic and equal combat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s why Saelia could never defeat the Demon King—and why she’d never provoke Lin Yu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The former was the opponent she longed for; the latter was a being beyond human comprehension, terrifying even to a battle-obsessed mage like Saelia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment of gloating, Vlamé smiled. “Now that I’ve accepted the commission, we should get going.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu frowned. “Now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vlamé shook her head. “No, not yet. We have to wait until Fllilien steps out of her room for the first time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu’s gaze pierced through the castle, glancing at Fllilien in the guest room, and he chuckled. “You’ve got a long wait ahead.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No problem. At most a week—I’ll drag her out by force.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she said this, Vlamé sighed inwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The main purpose of her visit to Lin Yu had been ruined by Fllilien.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But judging from Lin Yu’s behavior, he still admired Fllilien—he’d even opened his library to her. That alone was enough. As for the Sacred Scripture, there’d be time later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That night, Old Wol came alone to the castle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu had already been waiting in the forest outside the castle, gazing at the spry white-haired elder and saying coolly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t pretend in front of me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, Lord!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Wol bowed respectfully, then raised his head again—his body surged upward, reverting to the appearance of a man around forty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A towering two-meter frame, dense powerful muscles, wild thick black hair, and a face carved with sharp, resolute features—all proved he’d once been a mighty warrior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But… how much has he shrunk?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu studied the towering warrior before him, silently grumbling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then again, the world worked this way—later heroes like Sinmel were the same. In youth, they stood over one meter seventy; in old age, they shrank to one meter twenty or so—shorter than dwarves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How’s it going? Are you used to this body?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, Lord. I’ve mostly adjusted.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wol smiled. “If I must say, there’s a feeling of confinement—as if squeezed into a cramped space. Nothing like the freedom I had in your divine realm…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do familiars feel this too?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu frowned, a sense of foreboding rising within him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As previously stated, Lin Yu’s familiars were a system derived from the Tongtian Lu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This familiar system was the complete opposite of the Tongtian Lu, which connected heaven and earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simply put, Lin Yu treated himself as heaven and earth, dividing his authority and lending it to familiars who communicated with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In return, those granted permission became utterly bound to his inner universe, their bodies and souls merging into the world, entering a state akin to merging with the primordial Dao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, merged familiars could not compare to true masters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How much authority they gained depended entirely on how much power Lin Yu was willing to lend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So far, Lin Yu had roughly divided familiar authority into nine levels, with vast gaps between each tier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Lin Yu’s vision, the highest [First-Level Familiar] would wield authority second only to his own, able to manipulate all matter and energy within his inner universe at will.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Creating matter, solidifying space, halting time—all would be basic operations for them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If possible, Lin Yu wanted to test First-Level Familiar power on Old Wol, but unfortunately, such authority was beyond what anyone could endure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Old Wol’s soul strength, he could reach at most Seventh-Level Familiar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Higher than that—even if Lin Yu offered it, he couldn’t withstand it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for Old Wol, becoming a Seventh-Level Familiar was already more than enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within Lin Yu’s inner universe, a Seventh-Level Familiar was a planetary-level powerhouse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a single thought, he could move mountains, fill seas, and tear continents apart—effortlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But authority was still just authority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without understanding the principles behind these powers, they could only be used within Lin Yu’s inner universe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, this didn’t mean familiars lost all power outside it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Take Old Wol—he had reshaped his body within Lin Yu’s inner universe, every inch of flesh infused with Lin Yu’s core consciousness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This granted him abilities similar to Lin Yu’s, like a weakened version of Lin Yu’s initial state: passive abilities such as energy absorption and the Face Fruit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All attacks against him were absorbed into the inner universe—truly invulnerable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As an extension of Lin Yu’s will, his status soared—he could summon magical forces in nature with mere incantations, his words becoming law.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu had already tested all these abilities with Old Wol.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the time, he hadn’t thought anything was wrong, but now, a sense of foreboding suddenly struck him…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Lin Yu waved his hand and led Old Wol to the edge of the ten-li territory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the familiar forest before him, Old Wol glanced at Lin Yu in confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu offered no explanation, only gazed ahead and said, “Do you see that oak tree marked with a symbol? Try walking toward it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, my lord!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Wol bowed respectfully and stepped forward toward the oak tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he reached about three feet from the oak tree, his body suddenly froze, as if striking an invisible barrier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So it is true…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching Old Wol, frozen before the tree and stunned with shock, Lin Yu sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Becoming my retainer also binds you to the limits of my inner universe—you cannot roam freely in this world…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Lin Yu thought this, he suddenly saw Old Wol reach out curiously to touch the invisible barrier before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And when his palm pressed against the barrier, it slowly sank inward, penetrating a full joint’s depth!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1652,"2026-06-20T00:29:28.871Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","7086ed9fd16dc50339fe20df14c8e7c214b9d19d5de61dadda43c45c22c7f41b","the-dimensional-demon-god-s-chat-group-chapter-88","the-dimensional-demon-god-s-chat-group-chapter-86",206,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-dimensional-demon-god-s-chat-group-cover.jpg"]
