She raised her sleeve and wiped away her tears. Though her voice was still choked with sobs, it now held a hint of resolve.
"Eldest Brother... I..."
She took a deep breath, as if she had made up her mind about something.
"I understand now. It's just... this concerns my Dao path, and more importantly, the dying wish of that senior brother... I... I must be extremely cautious and cannot make a rash decision, lest I... fail to live up to his earnest intentions."
Seeing this, Lin Qingfeng nodded as well.
"Very well. The choice of one's Dao path should indeed be made with utmost caution. Since you feel this way, I will grant you three to five days."
"Go back to your thatched hut and calm down. Think carefully about what you must do to honor his dying wish. I hope you will ultimately make the right choice."
"Thank you... Eldest Brother."
As if granted a pardon, Su Ling'er bowed deeply once more.
