Li Jing asked how to be a father, and Gold Star Taibai told him that treating Nezha the same as Jin Zha and Mu Zha would suffice.
Li Jing pondered upon the words of Gold Star Taibai.
He was no fool and, all of a sudden, felt a pang of guilt towards Nezha.
If he had treated Nezha as he did Jin Zha and Mu Zha, none of what happened later would have occurred.
Given Nezha's temperament, he would respond in kind to whoever treated him well.
In the end, it was his own failure to fulfill a father's duty that hurt Nezha's heart.
Having faced life and death, Li Jing had somewhat come to a realization and began to try.
As a father, protecting his own children was naturally inevitable.
"Li Jing, you and your son are ganging up on me; you're also old subordinates of the Jade Emperor. You can't just ostracize us because you've sided with Great Emperor Ziwei first. Aren't you afraid of being criticized by everyone?"
