Yin Xinya discarded all of her distracting thoughts. She promptly bowed to Lin Xiang, her tone full of respect. "You have my honest gratitude, Elder Lin. As I said before, when I come back to the Divine Kingdom, you will be received as my honored guest."
"We thank Elder Lin for his graciousness." Elder Li had also offered her honest gratitude.
Both elves knew this would be a day forever carved into their minds.
Lin Xiang spotted a faint smile. He showed the other elves' spatial rings and said, "About these. Do you perhaps want them back?"
"They were never ours, to begin with." Yin Xinya calmly smiled. "What Elder Lin takes is yours to keep."
Lin Xiang had already expected that response. This little lass was a dutiful one from what he had observed.
He then asked next, "So? What are you two plans now? It seems you're not planning on returning to your Divine Kingdom as of now."
