None of the rulers could believe their eyes. The battle in front of them was no battle but rather a one sided beat down. It didn't look like Lin Wu was even taking it seriously from the start.

But now that they had seen Lin Wu's capabilities and his true size, they knew that he was no common worm that could be looked down upon. 

The Demon Spine ape looked at Lin Wu with fear in his eyes for the first time. The anger and rage he was feeling due to his bloodline's ability were no longer there and he felt like if he protested anymore, he would be crushed to death.

"I… Accept defeat…" The demon spine ape answered unwillingly.

~Sigh~

A sigh was released by the Slim arm ape and he knew that the demon spine ape's position was now as good as gone. According to the ancient mandate, Lin Wu had the right to kill and take over the position of the Demon spine ape.

The slim arm ape knew what his son had in mind, when his son asked Lin Wu to defeat him. He had thought that even if he won, it won't be a once sided victory like this and that they would have to struggle for a while.

Even if the demon spine ape lost like that, Lin Wu would be in no condition to take over his position. In a way, this was a trap devised by the father and son. The father accepted Lin Wu's proposition by taking the benefits, while the son denied it to reduce Lin Wu's authority.

If their plan had succeeded, not only would Lin Wu have to fulfill his end of the agreement, he would likely be suppressed by the two ape rulers. 

Still, what they did not know was that Lin Wu would not be fazed by their low grade scheme. He had far too much experience in matters such as these and had seen many situations like these in various media such that they had become overused tropes.

"So you admit defeat… good." Lin Wu said before releasing the demon spine ape.

~thud~

The ape fell to the ground and created another imprint on it. At least this time it was not as injured and could pull himself out of it. Lin Wu, on the other hand, turned to the Slim arm ape king.

"Well then… I guess we can proceed." Lin Wu said.

~Sigh~

"Alright… you can be the ruler now then." The Slim arm ape replied.

Lin Wu looked at him with confusion in his eyes upon hearing his words.

"Ruler? What ruler?" Lin Wu questioned.

"You defeated my son, who is one of the rulers, you get his seat now." The slim arm ape replied, feeling strange now.

"I don't want it though." Lin Wu replied.

"Huh?" Both the slim arm ape and the demon spine ape looked at him in bewilderment.

"But didn't you just use this as an excuse to get his seat?" The slim arm ape questioned.

"Why would I need to do that? If I really wanted, I could have just started the fight the moment we met. Like I said, I only intended to do what I explained before. I do not want his seat, I want the Olive Viper King's seat." Lin Wu answered.

In reality, the reason why Lin Wu didn't want the seat was that it would end up putting him in the limelight far too early. He would like to stay relatively hidden, at least until he reaches the child stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

While he had shown that he had defeated the Demon Spine ape wease, it was not so. In exchange Lin Wu had also borne the injuries which took quite a bit of vital essence to heal. Even the amount of spirit Qi he needed to suppress everyone with radiation manipulation was high.

It wasn't as high as when he diverted tribulation lightning, but it was still quite substantial. Another thing was that he didn't want to expose more of his skills by prolonging the fight. This was the fastest way he could do it right now.

'Keeping my size small, definitely worked in my favor…' Lin Wu thought to himself as he shrank back to his previous size.

The three rulers looked at this with peculiar gazes as a thought appeared in their minds.

'So he can't keep this large form for long. It is just a temporary ability.' All of them thought.

The demon spine ape was still injured but it did not have any life threatening injuries. It would just take him a week to fully recover to his peak state. As a demon spine ape, he naturally had a greater regeneration ability than other beasts and thus could fix his bones quicker too.

"What now then?" The Beetle king, who had been silent till now, spoke.

"Now… we just do as I said. I don't require anything in particular of you three and just want you to stop the olive viper king's subordinates when the time comes. As for my end of the deal, if you want to mutate your subordinates, make sure they bring beasts for me to eat, spirit herbs or fruits." Lin Wu answered.

"That's all?" The slim arm ape asked.

"Yes. No wait… I have another thing I want to ask you three." Lin Wu replied.

"And what's that?" The slim arm ape questioned.

"I wanted to take a look at the Dark Bloom caves. What would be the best place to enter from that is not in the Twin Lights liger king's territory?" Lin Mu replied.

"The Dark Bloom caves? Why do you want to go there? That is a forbidden area." The Slim arm ape and the Beetle king questioned.

"Forbidden? Doesn't the Twin Lights Liger king live in one of the caves?" Lin Wu asked.

"He is the only one that does and that's because of his strength. Other normal nascent soul realm beasts won't have the same luck."
