Shibao released the Primordial Orb, and saw a pair of newly conscious Ice and Snow Spirits, their shiny, black eyes sparkling brightly.
Lin Qingluo was very at ease with Shibao, who had also nurtured Tianfeng, Tianlei, and Tianhuo when they were just born.
Only Tianshui was personally raised by her after she successfully fused with the Lotus of Eternal Life and achieved the Indestructible Divine Body.
Thus, Tianfeng, Tianlei, and Tianhuo were all particularly affectionate towards Shibao, just as they were to their nominal mother, Lin Qingluo.
Shibao loved the two little spirits very much and laughed until his eyes narrowed, carefully cradling them with his chubby little arms before returning them to the Primordial Orb for nurturing.
Lin Qingluo smiled faintly, bid farewell to the two brothers, and returned to her own tent.
