Chapter 1687

~7 min read 1,249 words

Internet trolls are always like this, loving one person after another as they see them.

During the fourth stage, they were shouting "Wife!" at the Fourth Sister with every breath.

But when Bronya played to the fifth stage, she lost herself again in Pingping's constant "Brother Monkey" calls.

And later on, after seeing Princess Iron Fan.

The comments were all filled with "I think this Princess Iron Fan still has a certain charm."

Their main strategy is universal love.

And because of the excellent plot of the fourth stage as a premise.

The viewers in the live stream have also been paying close attention to the plot of the fifth stage.

What the players didn't expect was that the final boss of the fifth stage wasn't the Bull Demon King, but Red Boy.

Moreover, Red Boy looks just like a rebellious son, actually imprisoning his own father.

Plus, Pingping, who kept calling the Destined One "Brother Monkey" earlier, was actually Red Boy in disguise...

This made the players grind their teeth even more.

But.

The scene where Red Boy finally said, "If you don't avenge a grudge, what's the point of cultivation!" and stood up to commit suicide was still quite shocking.

His act of preferring to die standing rather than live kneeling is truly that of a real man.

But then the problem arises.

What "grudge" is he talking about? Where did it come from?

This key piece of information was never mentioned in the main storyline.

Therefore, if you only watch the animations in the main story, it is very difficult to understand the full picture of the story.

Only Bronya, who has watched many monster background stories, can understand it, so she occasionally speaks up to explain it to the viewers in the live stream.

"The grudge Red Boy speaks of is the grudge of having his entire clan wiped out by the heavens."

"He is not the son of the Bull Demon King, but the last descendant of the Yaksha King."

"Back then, before the Yaksha King died, with the help of Taishang Laojun, he refined his dead son into a red lotus."

"And this red lotus is the essence of the Yaksha King's son."

"Later, Taishang Laojun used water from the Child-Mother River, mixed it with this essence, and forced Princess Iron Fan to drink it."

"Finally, she gave birth to Red Boy."

Hearing Bronya's explanation.

Everything suddenly became clear.

So, Red Boy always wanted to obtain the Great Sage's relics just to increase his power and go to the Buddhist sect for revenge...

In an instant, countless people's opinions of Red Boy did a complete 180-degree turn, praising him as a real man.

But unfortunately...

【Sigh...】

While countless people sighed, another doubt arose.

If Red Boy wanted revenge, he must have known his own background to have the idea of revenge.

Then...

How did Red Boy find out about his background?

The Bull Demon King certainly wouldn't have told Red Boy.

After all... going for revenge is equivalent to throwing one's life away.

Although he wasn't his biological son, it can be seen in the main plot that the Bull Demon King definitely treated Red Boy as his own son.

After all, Red Boy was very affectionate toward his half-sister.

So the Bull Demon King naturally wouldn't want Red Boy to go to his death.

Thinking about it this way, the players immediately had a guess—this might be another conspiracy.

And in the final animation.

The players saw the full story of the Bull Demon King's family's misfortune.

The opening scene is Erlang Shen distributing the "spoils" after suppressing Sun Wukong.

The Great Sage's several relics were given to the Black Bear Spirit, the Yellow Wind Great Sage, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord, and the Bull Demon King respectively.

And when the Great Sage was on his deathbed, he said something inexplicable to the Bull Demon King.

"You old bull, you really are unlucky to the core."

"In this life, you've never made the right choice once."

The players were all very confused.

What did the Great Sage mean by that?

Then, the Bull Demon King in the animation had his pupils shrink, as if he had realized something.

In the shot, his eyes trembled, and he fell into memories.

Remembering the time when he and Sun Wukong were sworn brothers, high-spirited, and wreaked havoc in Heaven together.

Immediately after, it reached the Journey to the West period.

The Bull Demon King chose to block the path as one of the trials of the Journey to the West.

Finally.

Erlang Shen led the demon kings to surround and suppress Sun Wukong.

These three choices were all wrong for the old bull, which is why Sun Wukong said that.

Why say they were all wrong?

The first time, wreaking havoc in Heaven was going against the heavens, and the result goes without saying: he failed.

And the second time, because the rebellion against Heaven failed, Sun Wukong chose to follow the heavens and accept the amnesty to go to the West to fetch the scriptures in order to preserve his and the Bull Demon King's lives.

But this time the old bull chose wrong again; he chose to go against the heavens and stood on the opposite side of the scripture-fetching team.

If it weren't for Sun Wukong remembering old friendships, Red Boy and the Bull Demon King's brother, Ruyi Zhenxian, would have already died in this trial.

It can be said that the first two times, Sun Wukong was helping the Bull Demon King clean up his mess.

Sun Wukong not only let Ruyi Zhenxian go but also sent Red Boy to Guanyin, where he got a position and backing.

But at this time, the Bull Demon King hadn't seen the situation clearly, thinking Sun Wukong had betrayed their brotherhood.

That's why there was the third wrong choice—surrounding and suppressing Sun Wukong with the other demon kings.

It wasn't until Sun Wukong said those words on his deathbed that the Bull Demon King suddenly realized and regretted his past actions.

But things had reached this point, and his high spirits had long been worn away.

Finally, he followed Sun Wukong's last words and didn't touch the 【Relic】, but hid it in his stomach.

But the result...

Red Boy somehow learned of his background and came to the Bull Demon King to demand the relic, wanting to increase his power to take revenge at Lingshan, thus leading to the plot of Chapter 5 of "Black Myth."

The wonderful performance of the animation, plus the tragic singing...

It was another ultimate audiovisual enjoyment.

The players felt sympathy for the Bull Demon King's family's misfortune.

And they saw the appearance of the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King and Nezha in the animation.

The sense of oppression was simply maxed out.

At the same time, this animation also dealt a heavy blow to the players' hearts.

The Bull Demon King's family... is truly a bit too miserable.

There was no time to sigh.

The game entered the final stage—Flower Fruit Mountain.

When the game started and a bolt of lightning fell, turning into Heavenly Soldiers appearing in the players' eyes.

The hearts that had been hit by the story of the fifth chapter immediately became excited.

【Holy crap!! Heavenly Soldiers?!】

【Are we going to attack the Heavenly Court in this chapter?!】

(De Nuo De)

【This is Flower Fruit Mountain, right? Why would there be Heavenly Soldiers at Flower Fruit Mountain?】
