"Little demon, where are you running off to?"
Sun Wukong's voice rang in Red Child's ear, followed by Red Child suddenly falling from the Ninth Heaven.
A mountain had appeared on his back out of nowhere.
However, far away, the back of Sun Wukong was now free from any burden.
It seemed as if nothing had changed, just a swapping of places between the two.
"This monkey!"
Red Child's face was flushed with anger, whether from the pressure of the stone or from Sun Wukong's trick.
Watching Sun Wukong walk further away, Red Child felt utterly powerless.

Meanwhile, inside the Western Great Thunderclap Monastery.
Sakyamuni Tathagata remained seated on the Lotus Platform.
His expression was somewhat grim; he was of course aware of the events taking place at Withered Pine Stream.
Red Child was initially a strategic pawn planned by Western Heaven.
