"This little woman's cultivation level is insignificant, but I also know that cultivators in the Cultivation World have always spoken of following their hearts in cultivating immortality and seeking the Dao."
"And that also means that when people of different temperaments do the same thing, the impact on their state of mind is entirely different."
"For this little woman, if I were truly to go against my heart and pocket the Spirit Stones, it would inevitably damage my already fragile state of mind."
"This little woman may be untalented, and my cultivation and strength may be meager, but I still wish to walk a few more steps down this long immortal road!"
"Two thousand Spirit Stones truly is no small sum, and their value is astonishing. But if they were to affect this little woman's future cultivation path—even if there were only the slightest possibility—I would rather not have them!"
Chuxia continued speaking, her voice and tone growing ever firmer.
By the end, even in the face of the extraordinarily cultivated Su Shi'er, her gaze beneath that seemingly frail exterior had become somewhat sharp.
"Tut, tut, interesting. Even in such circumstances, you were able to stabilize your state of mind and take another step forward."
"You little girl are quite an interesting one. Keep those remaining two thousand supreme-grade Spirit Stones for yourself."
"Giving you ten thousand supreme-grade Spirit Stones meant that I had tacitly entrusted all of them to you for smoothing out the connections. As for how much remains, so long as the matter is handled properly, it is all yours."
Su Shi'er grinned faintly and waved his hand as he spoke calmly.
"Ah! This... Senior must be joking. What this little woman did was truly insignificant. How could I possibly..."
Chuxia was stunned again upon hearing this.
