Chapter 1851

~4 min read 620 words

Marshal Tianpeng's words clearly carried a great deal of resentment. At the beginning, he had been on Sun Wukong's side, but Tang Seng, based on his philosophy of compassion, insisted on saving that little demon.

"Second Senior Brother, such a weak little child—could he be a demon?"

General Juan Lian was also shocked and said.

Marshal Tianpeng looked at him, his eyes filled with a hint of anger, and did not answer immediately.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. I saw that little child looking so pitiful; how could he be a demon?"

Tang Seng still insisted on his own view.

No one knew why Tang Seng was so insistent. Perhaps, in many moments, he had to maintain his own image.

And at this moment, the White Dragon Horse suddenly raised his head and said, "There must be a demon when things are abnormal. Eldest Senior Brother already said that the little child was a demon earlier; otherwise, what do Master and Senior Brothers think?"

"In such a deep mountain forest, with no village in front and no shop behind, a child appears out of thin air tied to a tree? And he says he was tied up by robbers?"

"Does everyone think this makes sense? I noticed he had gold bracelets on his hands that weren't taken, and he didn't even mention his parents. What do you all think?"

The White Dragon Horse's words woke the dreamer. Only then did everyone recall that the little child's hands were indeed wearing a pair of gold bracelets.

If he had encountered robbers, how could they not have snatched the gold bracelets?

And his own explanation was that he ran into the forest alone to play—it's laughable just thinking about it. Would such a small child have the stamina to run into such a deep mountain forest?

"Could it be... that the little child is really a demon?"

Tang Seng frowned at this moment, a worried expression appearing on his face.

"Then why didn't Eldest Senior Brother directly use magic to make the little child reveal his form and prove it to everyone?"

General Juan Lian looked at Tang Seng; it seemed that even at a time like this, he was still trying his best to maintain Tang Seng's dignity.

"Hmph!" General Juan Lian let out a cold snort, "What if this demon has deep cultivation or some magic treasure for protection, and Eldest Senior Brother simply couldn't make him reveal his form?"

"Besides, when Eldest Senior Brother entered this forest, he emphasized to everyone that the demonic aura in this forest was very heavy. Did Master listen to his explanation?"

After Marshal Tianpeng finished speaking, he stared fixedly at Tang Seng. At this moment, he didn't hide his inner anger at all.

Tang Seng pursed his lips, said nothing, and fell into a silence.

Right now, Sun Wukong and Fahai had not returned. The strongest combat power in this team was the two of them. If both of them had met with misfortune, then how were they to pass through this mountain range next?

It looked like there was no one for miles around. Tang Seng couldn't help but shiver and began to feel a bit afraid.

"Then what should we do next? We don't know what happened to Master Fahai and Eldest Senior Brother. Should we continue to wait here, or move forward?"

General Juan Lian also appeared somewhat anxious and suddenly said.

"According to what Eldest Senior Brother said, the demonic aura in this forest is very heavy, so with just us few, I'm afraid it will be very difficult to pass through this mountain range."

The White Dragon Horse raised his head, swept his gaze over the crowd, and then said.
