Chapter 258: So It Was Red Boy!
A new question card appeared:
[Question Card: Who is the child wearing a red bellyband in the image?]
As soon as this question popped up, everyone gasped.
They all knew that the questions could be tricky, but this one was particularly devious. First of all, the location of the scene was unclear. There were thousands of mountains like this in the prehistoric world, but there were no known children of such strength hiding in any of them. Any powerful being would typically stake their claim to a more prosperous, spiritual place rather than hiding in such a small mountain.
Moreover, no one knew how old this child was. Since the scene was from the future, there was a question of whether this child had even been born yet.
[Sun Wukong: Why am I always appearing in these scenes? Who have I offended? Every time, it shows me, and now it even says I got beaten by a kid in a bellyband! This is a huge insult to me!]
Sun Wukong was fuming after seeing the image. If it was someone like the Buddha, that would be one thing, but to have a kid chase him off was something he couldn't accept. He didn't remember ever meeting a child who could do this, nor could he recognize the location shown in the scene.
Since the previous question card showed him a future that he hadn't experienced yet, he quickly understood that this must also be a vision of the future. However, he still harbored doubts. It didn't seem possible to him that such things would ever happen.
Sun Wukong was notoriously proud. The idea of being bossed around by a monk in the last vision was already unbearable. Now, the thought of being beaten by a little kid was even worse.
[Guanyin Bodhisattva: This child may be strong, but his arrogance is evident. His attitude is brash and impulsive. He could benefit from studying Buddhism to calm his heart. I feel he may have a connection with me.]
[Sun Wukong: Oh, take him! Please, Bodhisattva, if you know where this brat is, take him away before I meet him! Otherwise, if I do, I'll make sure to teach him a lesson every time I see him!]
[Erlang Shen: Wukong, in the scene just now, you were the one running away, looking pretty miserable. How do you still have the confidence to threaten him?]
Erlang Shen showed no mercy in mocking Sun Wukong. He had full confidence that the events shown in the image were true and would eventually happen. Seeing Sun Wukong's defiance only gave him more reason to poke fun.
[Chiyou: That kid is indeed impressive. He's young but incredibly skilled. His parents must be formidable as well. But what was that strange fire he spat?]
[Laozi: That's the Samadhi True Fire! It's not ordinary fire. This flame, cultivated from essence, energy, and spirit, is extremely difficult to extinguish. Usually, it's a natural-born power.]
Although most were still confused about the child's identity, Ye Tian spoke up, answering without hesitation.
[Ye Tian: That child is Red Boy, the son of the Bull Demon King!]
As soon as he said this, everyone was shocked!
Most people did not believe Ye Tian at first. How could the Bull Demon King, who was even weaker than Sun Wukong, have a child stronger than Wukong?
But to their surprise:
[Correct Answer!]
The confirmation left everyone in awe. Ye Tian didn't seem to have thought long before answering, yet he got it right immediately.
[Giant Spirit God: How could he know that?]
[Bai Ze: The Bull Demon King doesn't have a child, does he? How could he possibly know that this is his son?]
[Nezha: Did he just guess?]
[Li Jing: How could he guess that? He must have known the truth!]
[Haotian Jade Emperor: If he didn't already know the answer, then his ability to deduce the future must be incredibly strong!]
Even the Bull Demon King himself was stunned upon hearing the answer. He never expected that he had a child, much less one who was so wild. The idea of his son fighting Sun Wukong bothered him deeply since Wukong was his sworn brother, and the thought of them clashing was troubling.
[Bull Demon King: If this is really going to happen, it's going to be a tricky situation. You accursed monkey, what did you do to make my son fight you?]
Already in a bad mood, Sun Wukong exploded when he heard the Bull Demon King blaming him. Unwilling to let this go, Wukong fired back.
[Sun Wukong: How would I know anything about your kid? If you can't keep your brat in line, how is that my fault? And look at the scene! I'm the one getting injured! Your son didn't even get a scratch!]
[Bull Demon King: My son hasn't even grown up yet, and you still went all out on him? How could you be so heartless?!]
