Holy Mother Gold Spirit was initially somewhat puzzled.
Huh...
That's not right!
Don't you hate Li Jing? Besides, even if Li Jing died and his Dao vanished, what would that have to do with you? Goddess had long since severed the karma between you two.
But Holy Mother Gold Spirit quickly understood Nezha's confusion. He was not saddened by Li Jing's death; rather, he was troubled over how to face Madam Yin!
In Nezha's little mind,
the connections between things had originally been linear.
If something was done, it was done. If someone was killed, they were killed...
Why would it involve other people?
And lead to a chain reaction?
Holy Mother Gold Spirit immediately pulled Nezha before her. After pondering briefly, she smiled and said,
"No need to worry..."
"Madam Yin is also a reasonable person. Li Jing brought his death upon himself, and it has nothing to do with you. Madam Yin will not blame you. When the time comes, I'll speak with her!"
Holy Mother Gold Spirit then began praising him.
"Nezha..."
"The fact that you've begun considering such matters, considering how your actions may affect those around you, means you've grown a great deal. If Great King knew... he would surely be very pleased!"
Nezha's eyes immediately lit up.
"Really?"
Only after seeing Holy Mother Gold Spirit nod again in confirmation did Nezha become happy. He grinned cheerfully, once again brimming with energy!
At the same time, something occurred to him.
He was about to take out the treasures he had obtained from the Dragon Clan and give Holy Mother Gold Spirit and Shi Ji Niangniang their shares. But Holy Mother Guiling was someone he had met for the first time, and he had not prepared a gift for her...
After hesitating for a moment,
"Ah..."
