Li Yuanyuan did not dwell on the subject. She pivoted.

Lin Hui nodded. "Send them in."
After a lengthy period of observation, he was certain both were ready to receive the remaining law seals. Until now, he had conferred on them only the three foundational ones: Righteous Body, Righteous Heart, and Righteous Virtue.
Even so, their strength had already grown well beyond its former ceiling. It was time to pass down the final seal. Lin Hui had no intention of bestowing the Clear Source Law Body on everyone.
