The Kuang Mountain artifact spirit almost laughed in anger at Lin Ruoshui's words.
Had Lin Ruoshui called it the power of love, it would not have quibbled, though it could not really understand love between three people.
But these three child-eating fellows actually dared call it maternal love.
Maternal love that melted in the mouth?
The artifact spirit made up its mind to avoid choosing any of these three as its new master if at all possible.
Confident as it was, it did not think it could keep up with the thoughts of three perverts.
While the artifact spirit secretly decided to abandon the childbearing trio, the trio was also considering how to deal with it.
Qi Shiyun looked up at the Kuang Furnace in the sky, her delicate brows creasing slightly. "A-Xin, I feel the Kuang Furnace's artifact spirit may have misunderstood us."
Lianshan Xin had noticed too, but he did not think it was a major problem. "Kuang Su had a grudge against Maitreya, and so do we. Who else would it choose as its master?"
Lin Ruoshui shook her head. "Kuang Su couldn't possibly have had a grudge against Maitreya."
"Huh? Why?"
Lianshan Xin and Qi Shiyun both looked at Lin Ruoshui.
Lin Ruoshui explained, "Just as Lianshan Xin couldn't possibly have a grudge against Emperor Yongchang. The gulf between them is too great. They couldn't even meet, so how could there be any hatred?"
Lianshan Xin and Qi Shiyun both coughed instinctively.
They meant nothing by it. It was purely a physiological response.
Although Lin Ruoshui's supporting argument had problems, they both accepted her conclusion.
"Shui Shui's right. Kuang Su was a hermit, and one inclined toward Daoism at that. He had no reason to hold a grudge against Maitreya," Qi Shiyun realized.
Lianshan Xin thus
