Chapter One Hundred: The Crab Speaks the Truth, the Heavenly Splitting Palm Kills the Great Demon

  The crab was kicked to the point of being seven parts spirit and eight parts substance, its internal organs had all turned over, but it didn't feel any pain at all. Instead, its heart was filled with excitement, a surging feeling of exhilaration flooded the crab's mind. At this moment, there was only one thought in its brain: The Great King has returned.

  Realizing this, the big crab didn't care about its own injuries and rolled down from the wall with a struggle. It rushed forward and hugged Sun Yuan's leg tightly, then burst into loud wails, saying "Your Majesty has finally returned, I thought I was going to die!"

  Facing the enthusiasm of the big crab, Sun Yuan could only give him another kick to calm down so that he could ask questions later. After being kicked again, the big crab followed up with a smile, but this time he restrained himself and didn't make any excessive movements. He quickly wiped the stone bench with his sleeve, poured a cup of tea, and said, "Your Majesty, you must be tired from the journey, have some water to moisten your throat, and then we'll go find those bastards to settle accounts."

  "This is still somewhat decent, look at you, a great leader, so clumsy and awkward, what kind of image is this?" Sun Yuan nodded and sat down, "Alright, tell me in detail about the events that occurred here, without hiding anything, otherwise I will definitely flay you alive and eat you roasted." Sun Yuan waved his hand, indicating to the crab not to bother anymore, and asked.

  "Alright!" The big crab hastily stopped what he was doing, put the teapot back, wiped his hands, looked at Sun Yuan, and respectfully bowed down to explain the situation in great detail, until half a time later, he finally gave a general account of the situation in the cave.

  When he finished speaking, seeing that the king had not spoken, the crab could only carefully glance at Sun Yuan, but from his face, no joy or anger could be seen. The crab couldn't help but calm down the passionate heat in his heart and hesitantly asked, "Your Majesty, what do you think we should do? These family heads are just Dan-stage demons, they're not particularly powerful."

  "This place, I know that even a powerful demon wouldn't bother with it. To be honest, I'm not really interested in getting this place either, it's just too desolate. If things get complicated, let them handle it!" Sun Yuan stood up and said something that completely surprised the crab, seeming like he didn't want to deal with it.

  Sun Yuan was calm, but the big crab was anxious. Sun Yuan had the ability to turn the world upside down and could go anywhere, but the big crab didn't have this skill. If Sun Yuan left, he would inevitably face a lifelong prison sentence, never to see the light of day again. This was unacceptable to the big crab.

  He gritted his teeth and took a step forward, saying in a low voice, "Your Majesty, you can't do this! I dare to report to Your Majesty that according to my investigation, there is a treasure of the Water Ape tribe left here. It's just that it's guarded by a large array, so it has never been revealed. The Water Ape tribe has always refused to leave this place, and more than half of them are for this treasure."

  "Ah!" Sun Yuan's face showed a look of surprise, his previous words were just to tease the big crab and play a joke on this subordinate he hadn't seen in years, but unexpectedly, something really came out, it seemed that what came out this time was not simple at all.

  "Tell me and let me hear." Sun Yuan showed a concerned expression and said seriously.

  As soon as he saw Sun Yuan, the big crab's eyes lit up and he became excited again. "I know this is also a coincidence, that time the water ape was drunk and wanted to take out a female demon from the prison for fun, it was like this, like this, like this..." The big crab chattered on for a while, explaining the whole story clearly, then paused and added, "I can be sure, the treasure is hidden deep within the Water Ape's mansion. Every five years, on the day of utmost yin, strange wailing sounds will come from there, this is something that the old folks around here all know."

  "On the day of extreme yin? In the depths of the cave?"

  "Yes, the five-year period is almost up, and the day of great yin is near. However, the Water Ape Palace has been occupied by those monsters, so if the Great King wants to keep the secret of this treasure, he must drive them far away to prevent the news from leaking out and attracting stronger cultivators to come and seize it." The giant crab saw that Sun Yuan was slightly moved, and immediately put on a worried look, adding more emphasis as he exhorted.

  "Alright!" Sun Yuan naturally understood the big crab's idea, but didn't bother to expose it. He glanced at the big crab with a hint of disdain and nodded in approval, saying "You've done well this time, I'll remember it. Lead the way forward and let me see what kind of monster dares to occupy my Water Ape Palace."

  "Alright, this way, Your Majesty." Upon hearing Sun Yuan's promise, the giant crab was suddenly overjoyed and jumped three feet high, achieving its expected goal. It then hastily pushed open the prison gate, showing Sun Yuan the way, without even bothering to guard the prisoners anymore. Abandoning the gate, it led the way forward.

  Let's put aside Sun Yuan and the big crab rushing along the road for now. In the Water Ape's mansion, today was the day when the Crab Clan took over the Water Ape Cave Mansion on a rotational basis. According to the alliance agreement of the seven families, each family occupied the Water Ape Cave Mansion for one month. This month had just been taken over by the Crab Clan. At this time, the patriarch of the Crab Clan was hosting a banquet in the grand hall for the departing Catfish Clan's patriarch.

  It is said that when the world's great trend unites, it must divide, and when it divides, it must unite. It is also said that a good man has three helpers, and a fence has three stakes. After such a long time of confrontation, the seven major families have already known each other inside out, and openly or secretly began to seek allies, unite with each other, and suppress their enemies. The catfish family is just an ally close to the crab family, so at this time, taking advantage of this opportunity, the patriarch of the crab family brought out the younger generation of the tribe to get acquainted with the younger generation of the catfish family, which can also be considered as establishing a good relationship.

  At this moment, the banquet was in full swing, with young men from the Crab Clan surrounding the beautiful girls of the Carp Clan, seeking to resolve their personal issues. The scene became increasingly lively, and the two clan leaders were delighted to see this, sitting on the side, drinking and enjoying themselves, occasionally introducing some of the clan's elite. Although there was a hint of comparison in their words, overall it was still extremely harmonious.

  At this time, a noisy sound came from the entrance of the hall. Before the two clan leaders could ask any questions, a cry of surprise spread through the crowd. The crab clan leader looked closely and saw that several guards of the crab tribe had been kicked into the hall by someone, and for a while, they only had the strength to hum, but couldn't get up at all. Next, a huge big crab walked in with its eight claws swaying back and forth, and the scene fell silent, with no sound from anyone.

  After a moment, the crowd burst into an uproar. The crab tribe's elder stood up, his face red with rage, and shouted, "Bao Luo, where did you get this kind of audacity? You dare to barge into the meeting, are you tired of living?" The big crab swaggered in front of so many people, which was equivalent to slapping the crab tribe's elder in the face. This insignificant transformed little demon dared to be so presumptuous, and for a moment, the elder was furious beyond reason.

  "Isn't this the original Crab Grand Marshal? Brother Pang, how did he barge in here? What's going on?" The Carp Spirit had already seen through the Crab Clan Leader's expression and was delighted to watch the commotion, so he directly revealed the crab's identity with a hint of provocation.

  "I've made a fool of myself in front of you, elder brother. This young whippersnapper doesn't know the rules and has recklessly disrupted the banquet. If I have offended anyone, please forgive me." The crab tribe leader slightly bowed his fist to apologize to the carp tribe leader, then immediately turned red with rage and shouted, "Still not retreating? Are you not ashamed enough yet? Wait till I deal with you later!"

  "Haha", but unexpectedly, the big crab didn't intend to back down at all. He didn't even bother to acknowledge the leader of the crab tribe, and instead smiled slightly, took a few steps forward, and without any courtesy, moved a gold-painted chair from the scene to behind him, put it down, and pushed it in front of Sun Yuan, saying "Your Majesty, please sit down. Look at them, they're so arrogant, treating this place like their own home. They really have no shame."

  At this time, the crowd suddenly realized that there was a person behind the crab, and they couldn't help but take a closer look. It turned out to be a yellow-haired monkey with a beard-like mouth. Everyone was puzzled, not knowing where the monkey came from. However, looking at the yellow-haired monkey and combining it with what the big crab had said, the two tribal leaders felt a sudden chill in their hearts, and they made some guesses, thinking of the legendary figure. Their faces became even more gloomy.

  Sun Yuan sat down in front of everyone, looked at the two clan leaders with a surprised expression, and said, "You all seem to be having a lively time here, but why didn't you get my permission as the host? As the saying goes, taking something without asking is called theft. Are you all even more excessive than that? What do you think should be done about this?"

  "Are you the monkey who defeated the Water Ape?" As soon as Sun Yuan's words fell, the two tribal leaders had confirmed his identity. They exchanged a glance, and the Carp Spirit nodded, its expression turning gloomy. Its face changed color, and it spoke in a dark tone, "When did you come back? What do you want to do?"

  He immediately turned his head to look at the crab tribe's leader and said, "Brother Pang, this tribesman of yours is too much. Not only did he disrupt the meeting, but he also ate inside and crawled outside. It seems that he can't be kept here. Don't forget the united alliance agreement between our seven families. If anyone privately contacts this monkey, they will be attacked by all the others."

  "The Crab Clan's Patriarch's face turned iron-green, and he stretched out his hand to reveal the weapon in it. He charged at Sun Yuan and shouted: 'I don't care what you were before or why you came here. Hand over the crab and leave on your own accord. We can pretend nothing happened. Otherwise, this will be your burial ground. Don't think that just because you killed the Water Ape, we're afraid of you. With my and Nian brother's combined strength as two Dan-stage Great Demons, I'm confident we can take you down.'"

  "Oh, haha, just as the crab said, so domineering and majestic!" Sun Yuan smiled slightly, revealing a hint of surprise, and then suddenly disappeared in front of everyone with a flash of his body, only to reappear next to the Carp Spirit in an instant. With a slap of his palm, he said "I hate people who directly question me the most, so you have to die first."

  The catfish spirit suddenly felt a sense of crisis, and discovered Sun Yuan's sudden appearance. In his great shock, he immediately used all his strength to strike at Sun Yuan, wanting to block the palm that was chopping towards him. However, this was no ordinary palm technique, but rather the already somewhat matured Heaven-Cleaving Divine Palm. As the palm chopped down, ripples appeared in the air, as if it could cleave through space itself. The catfish spirit's fist, which had been struck with all his might, seemed like tofu as it touched Sun Yuan's palm, and instantly disintegrated. Sun Yuan's palm directly chopped through his fist, and its momentum did not stop, tearing along his arm, ripping it open. In an instant, his entire body was transformed into two pieces of minced meat, and countless blood flowers burst forth in mid-air.
