After the court was dismissed, all the Divine Generals left, discussing fervently among themselves.
The Jade Emperor specifically kept Taibai Venus behind and invited him to the Tongming Hall at the back for a conversation.
This great hall is where the Jade Emperor usually handles state affairs, and it's also where his study is located.
Once Taibai Venus was seated inside, he ordered tea to be served, and inquired with Taibai Venus somewhat puzzled, "The ancient Demon Emperor had ten sons; weren't they all killed by Hou Yi? Where did this Golden Crow Prince come from?"
Taibai Venus put down the teacup and reported to the Jade Emperor, "Your Majesty, you might not be aware. Hou Yi indeed killed nine sons back then, but one son and several Demon Clan generals fled to the deserted boundary. Over the years, they have thrived there and have now formed a considerable force."
The Jade Emperor asked curiously, "Isn't there a rumor that this Daoist Lu Ya is the tenth son?"
