Nuwa's casual remark, "I'd like to invite little Lin Shen to stay at Wa Huang Palace for a few days," felt like a Chaos Divine Stone hurled down from the highest heavens.

It directly smashed a bottomless pit into the peak of Kunlun Mountain.

The Three Pure Ones, three top-tier figures who had just attained Primordial Golden Immortalhood, their might shaking the entire Primordial World, were all petrified at that moment.

Tongtian Jiaozhu's eyes widened.

The Qingping Sword Intent in his hand hummed uncontrollably.

He stared fixedly at Nuwa, his gaze like that of a sworn enemy who had just stolen his Four Swords of Zhu Xian and burned down his Biyou Palace.

What had he just heard?

This woman wanted to abduct their precious darling, whom they had painstakingly raised to be plump and fair, back to her godforsaken Wa Huang Palace?

And "stay for a few days"?

What was the difference between that and gouging flesh directly from his heart!

"You... What did you say?!"

Tongtian Jiaozhu's voice changed pitch. He pointed at Nuwa, his finger trembling.

"Say that again?!"

Even Yuanshi Tianzun's eternally icy face couldn't remain composed.

His mouth hung slightly open, wide enough to fit the "Five Flavors Immortal Mountain" he had meticulously carved himself.

His mind was a blank slate, with only one thought echoing madly.

Outrageous!

Outrageous!

This woman was utterly audacious!

Who did she think she was?

Relying on her looks to charm my disciple into being close to her for a few days, and now she wanted to barge in and usurp their place?

This was a blatant provocation!

A naked challenge to the supreme authority of their Pangu's True Lineage and their Kunlun Mountain!

The whisk in The Grand Pure One Laozi's hand fell to the ground with a "thud."

His profound eyes, which had seen through the cycles of yin and yang and the birth and death of all things, were now filled with disbelief.

He had imagined countless possibilities.

He had thought Nuwa was here to explore the secrets of their breakthrough.

He had thought Nuwa was here to ask how to attain enlightenment.

He had even thought Nuwa was acting on Hongjun's orders, coming to be a mediator.

But he never expected that Nuwa's opening words would be such a world-shattering request.

This wasn't about vying for affection anymore.

This was about digging up their roots!

"Fellow Daoist Nuwa, this joke of yours is not funny at all."

The Grand Pure One Laozi slowly picked up his whisk, his voice more solemn than ever.

Although he hadn't exploded in anger like Tongtian, the invisible pressure of a Primordial Golden Immortal began to bear down on Nuwa.

The air on the peak of Kunlun Mountain grew thick.

However, facing the murderous glares of the Three Pure Ones and the mountain-like pressure from The Grand Pure One Laozi, Nuwa maintained her gentle smile.

She simply held Lin Shen closer in her arms.

She said softly, "My three Daoist brothers misunderstand. This younger sister is not trying to snatch your disciple."

"It's just..."

She looked down at Lin Shen in her arms, who was holding a small kitten and looking at his three masters with a bewildered expression.

Her eyes were filled with boundless affection and compassion.

"It's just that I observe little Lin Shen. Although he possesses supreme origins and harbors a source of creation within him that even I cannot fathom..."

"His mind is, after all, still that of a child."

"My three Daoist brothers are the true lineage of Pangu, venerable beings of the Great Dao. Your daily thoughts and concerns are all about the workings of heaven and earth and the ultimate principles of the Great Dao."

"Your teaching methods might... not be entirely suitable for a child's growth."

Nuwa's words were tactful, but the meaning was sharp.

You three old men don't know how to raise a child!

Upon hearing this, the faces of the Three Pure Ones grew even uglier.

Tongtian Jiaozhu was so enraged he almost drew his sword, "Nonsense! How could we not know how to raise a child?"

"My disciple is fed so plump and healthy, he gets whatever he wants to eat, whatever he wants to play with!"

"Who else in this Primordial World lives a more comfortable life than him?"

"Material abundance doesn't represent everything."

Nuwa shook her head, her voice soft yet firm.

"Little Lin Shen needs more than just spiritual fruits, immortal pills, and magical treasures as toys."

"What he needs more is gentle companionship, patient guidance, and care that understands his childlike heart."

As she spoke, she extended her delicate fingers and gently tapped Lin Shen's little nose.

"Look, he likes fluffy little animals, enjoys listening to stories, and likes being held gently."

"Have the Three Pure Ones ever done these things for him?"

The Three Pure Ones: "..."

They were rendered speechless by Nuwa's words.

Tongtian Jiaozhu wanted to retort, saying he had caught a rabbit for him!

But the rabbit was instantly turned into an immortal beast by his disciple, making it impossible to play with happily.

Yuanshi Tianzun wanted to retort, saying he had created an illusionary maze for him!

But that maze only contained cold formations and false illusions, lacking the warmth of real life.

The Grand Pure One Laozi wanted to retort, saying he had opened a hundred herb garden for him!

But in that hundred herb garden, he could only play alone, digging in the mud.

They suddenly realized that they had never truly considered things from the perspective of a "child."

Everything they did was from the perspective of "masters."

They simply dumped what they thought was best onto Lin Shen.

Without ever asking what Lin Shen truly desired.

Seeing the Three Pure Ones fall into silence, Nuwa knew her words had taken effect.

She struck while the iron was hot and continued, "This younger sister is untalented, but I was born to wield the Dao of Creation and share a natural closeness with all living beings."

"Let me guide Little Lin Shen, allowing him to feel the beauty of life and experience the joy of creation."

"Perhaps it will be much more effective than the Three Daoist Brothers lecturing him on profound Daoist principles all day long."

"Moreover, I'm only asking him to stay at my Wa Huang Palace for a few days."

"Kunlun Mountain is not far from my Wa Huang Palace. If the Three Daoist Brothers are worried, you can visit him anytime."

"This will be beneficial for Little Lin Shen's growth, and it will also inspire my own Dao path. Why wouldn't I do it?"

Nuwa's words were well-reasoned and heartfelt.

She not only pointed out the Three Pure Ones' shortcomings in "child-rearing" but also gave them a way to save face, while painting a mutually beneficial picture.

Brilliant!

Truly brilliant!

Lin Shen, listening from the side, couldn't help but give Nuwa a mental thumbs-up.

My goodness, this beautiful sister isn't just pretty, she's also so eloquent!

Her speaking skills, her logic, it's a perfect PR move!

He was almost convinced.

Stay at the beautiful sister's house for a few days?

It sounds... not bad!

There must be lots of delicious food and fun things there too, right?

And Sister Nuwa is so gentle, she'll definitely tell me lots of interesting stories!

She'll even hold me and gently coax me to sleep!

Just thinking about it makes him happy!

Little stars of anticipation began to twinkle in Lin Shen's eyes.

He quietly tugged at Nuwa's sleeve and whispered in a voice only she could hear, "Sister Nuwa, do you have any kittens at your home?"

Nuwa looked down at his sparkling big eyes, her heart melting.

She gently nodded, "Of course, my home has many, many cute little animals."

"There are also little birds that sing, little rabbits that dance, and little butterflies that change color."

"If Little Lin Shen comes, I'll introduce them all to you, okay?"

Lin Shen's eyes lit up as he listened.

Wow!

So many little animals!

This is practically a zoo!

He couldn't help but nod vigorously: "Okay! I want to go! I want to go!"

The Three Pure Ones looked at Nuwa, then at their disciple's "yearning" little expression, and felt a mix of emotions.

They knew Nuwa was right.

When it came to "raising kids," the three of them combined probably couldn't compare to a single finger of Nuwa's.

But...

Logically, it made sense, but emotionally, they couldn't accept it!

That was their precious treasure, the one they held in their hands for fear of dropping him, and kept in their mouths for fear of him melting!

To just let him go home with another woman?

What if he lived there for a while and refused to come back?

What if, from now on, he only spoke of "Sister Nuwa" and forgot about the three of them, his masters?

The thought of that possibility made the Three Pure Ones' hearts ache.

No!

Absolutely not!

"This matter is absolutely impossible!"

Tongtian Jiaozhu was the first to step forward, rejecting it with a resolute tone.

He glared at Nuwa like a tigress protecting her cubs.

"My disciple is born to Kunlun Mountain, and will die as a ghost of Kunlun Mountain!"

"He's not going anywhere! He's staying by my side!"

"Third Brother!"

Yuanshi Tianzun reprimanded him, finding his words too crude.

But then, he also said to Nuwa in an unyielding tone, "Daoist Friend Nuwa, we appreciate your kind intentions."

"However, Lin Shen is the only disciple of my Kunlun Mountain, and there is no reason for him to stay at someone else's dojo for a short visit."

"This matter should not be mentioned again."

The Grand Pure One Laozi delivered the final verdict.

He bowed slightly to Nuwa, his tone calm but his attitude unwavering.

"Daoist Friend, please return."

For the first time, the three brothers reached an unprecedented consensus on an external matter.

That is—want to abduct our child?

Not a chance!

We'll weld the windows shut for you!

Nuwa looked at the Three Pure Ones, who were guarding him so fiercely and united against her, and felt a wave of helplessness.

She knew she had been too hasty this time.

These three regarded this little one more importantly than their own lives.

Taking him away from them would likely be harder than proving the Dao and becoming a Saint.

"Very well."

Nuwa sighed softly, a hint of disappointment showing on her face.

"Since the three Daoist Brothers do not agree, this younger sister cannot force the issue."

She lowered her head and looked at Lin Shen in her arms with reluctance.

She nuzzled his soft little face one last time.

"Little Lin Shen, Sister has to go now. I'll come see you again, okay?"

Lin Shen immediately became unhappy upon hearing this.

Don't go! Pretty sister!

I haven't hugged you enough yet!

My little cat is still in your hands!

Besides, I want to go to your place to see the little animals!

He reached out his small hand and tightly gripped Nuwa's collar.

His little mouth pouted, and tears began to well up in his eyes.

"Don't... go..."

"Sister... don't... go..."

He struggled to express his reluctance with his limited vocabulary.

This scene was a sweet burden for Nuwa.

But for the Three Pure Ones, it was the final straw that broke the camel's back!

Tongtian Jiaozhu felt his worldview completely collapse at that moment.
