Longevity: Start From The Entry Of Luck

Chapter 436: The Surging Power of Luck, Dugu Bo's Transcending Tribulation, Will Become Supreme!

Jiang Yuan gradually developed some conjectures and ideas about the path of the physical body.

But how to prove it? How can it be proven?

He cannot do it now, only Dugu Bo can achieve what those conjectures can do.

He didn't want to talk about these conjectures and thoughts with Dugu Bo at the moment. He needed to communicate with Dugu Bo after returning and absorb the results of his research.

At this moment, Dugu Bo spoke again.

"But then again, even with the power of opening the five great secret realms, it is difficult to kill Jiuyou, right?"

"After all, Jiuyou is a Demon Saint of the Fifth Heaven. Even in the Ancient Heavenly Court, she is much stronger than those few Demon Saints of the Third Heaven."

Jiang Yuan nodded in agreement.

"The Dean is right. Jiuyou is indeed much stronger. Compared to those few Demon Saints of the Third Heaven, she is several times more powerful."

Dugu Bo became curious and asked, "Then how did you kill her in the fragments of the Ancient Heavenly Court?"

Jiang Yuan said, "It was her bad luck to encounter the fluctuations caused by the Void Sea."

"Being swept into the cracks of the Void Sea, even if she is only a Demon Saint of the Fifth Heaven, even if her cultivation is higher and her realm is stronger, she would still be dead!"

Dugu Bo looked enlightened.

"No wonder I sensed the fluctuations of the Void Sea just now. So that's how it happened!"

Then he smiled bitterly, "Your luck is truly extraordinary. Jiuyou actually died on this one in a billion chance. It's too unfair. I wouldn't believe it if it weren't for the influence of your luck power."

Jiang Yuan smiled without confirming or denying.

Others thought that Jiuyou was swept away by the fluctuations of the Void Sea because of her good luck.

In fact, only he knew that it was because of the effect of his Innate Divine Ability.

Reversing the order of cause and effect, turning the result into the cause.

First the result, then the cause. This Divine Ability is truly mysterious.

But it also consumes a lot of energy!

Now he has a huge Grotto-Heaven world within him, with a vast Grotto-Heaven world as a backing, and the World Tree growing within it.

But even so, the mana he just consumed has not recovered much yet.

With the Grotto-Heaven world as a backing, he has only recovered half of his mana.

At this time, there was no stopping the movement within the Grotto-Heaven world, as strands of clouds converged towards the Spirit Sea.

From mist to water vapor, the condensed droplets silently merged into the Spirit Sea.

Jiang Yuan could feel the mana he consumed continuously recovering. With the entire Grotto-Heaven world as a backing, the recovery speed was very fast!

This is the reason why the Grotto-Heaven Realm is qualified to traverse the universe.

Unless the Grotto-Heaven world is destroyed, the mana of the strong in the Grotto-Heaven Realm will never be exhausted, it will flow endlessly.

But compared to the total amount of mana in his body, this recovery speed is still much slower!

"Dean, let's retreat!"

Jiang Yuan spoke up.

Dugu Bo nodded, "Alright! It's time to take a step back! It won't be fun when that Nanling Monster Emperor finds out what happened inside!"

Just then, there was a slight disturbance at the South Heaven Gate.

Two figures instantly appeared in the starry sky.

It was Zhu Yan and Qing Ling.

Congratulations on your return, Zhuyan Gang. As soon as you returned, there was a loud rumble in the sky, causing a slight tremor.

In Jiang Yuan's gaze, he instantly saw three virtual images of the Great Dao merging with Zhuyan.

His Primordial Spirit also left his body in an instant, entrusting itself to the Great Dao.

At the same time, Zhuyan's aura suddenly soared, sweeping across the entire starry sky with immense pressure.

At this moment, in Jiang Yuan's perception, he seemed to have transformed into a newborn star, erupting with flames and emitting terrifying heat waves.

But when looking at him, there were no anomalies around Zhuyan.

Only his fiery red hair and clothes seemed to be enveloped in raging flames.

In the next moment, Zhuyan's figure moved and instantly disappeared outside the Southern Gate, the flames reuniting in front of Jiang Yuan, and his figure appeared here as well.

"It feels good to be back!"

Zhuyan sighed.

Jiang Yuan's eyebrows slightly furrowed, and he moved to stand in front of Ye Chanxi.

The terror Zhuyan gave him now was countless times greater than before.

His appearance instantly turned into a splitting star in Jiang Yuan's divine sense, incredibly terrifying.

The void around him seemed to be distorted and deformed.

The hair and clothes on Zhuyan's body turned into the most terrifying flames in the world, making him feel secretly shocked and filled with some pressure.

Now that he was in close contact with a Great Dao Saint in his prime, Jiang Yuan finally understood why it was said that all were ants beneath a Saint.

The Zhuyan now was completely different from the one in the Ancient Heavenly Court, much more terrifying.

His strength couldn't be measured simply by multiplication.

It was as if there was a dimensional gap!

At the same time, Jiang Yuan's eyebrows slightly furrowed.

"Fellow Daoist, please retract your pressure."

Upon hearing this, Zhuyan's expression froze for a moment, then he smiled awkwardly.

"Hahaha--"

"Fellow Daoist, please don't be angry! I just came back and got too excited, so I forgot to restrain myself!"

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!!"

Zhuyan's words were not confined to a small space like Dugu Bo's just now, only audible to a few of them.

In the situation where Zhuyan didn't restrain himself at all, the Saints waiting nearby also heard Zhuyan's words.

They looked at this scene in astonishment, unable to believe their ears, and their hearts were filled with shock.

"Did I mishear? Zhuyan Fellow Daoist is actually apologizing to Jiang Yuan?"

"How could you have misheard? I heard it too, Zhuyan Fellow Daoist is indeed apologizing to Jiang Yuan."

"How is this possible? Zhuyan Fellow Daoist is a dignified Saint, and a Triple Heaven Saint at that. How could he apologize to Jiang Yuan? What qualifications does Jiang Yuan have to make him apologize?"

"You're wrong!"

"What do you mean by wrong?"

"With Jiang Yuan's cultivation speed and his return from the Ancient Heavenly Court ruins, there is a high probability that he has already opened up a Grotto-Heaven world."

Upon hearing this, the Saint was speechless.

"Do you really not understand what I mean? Is that the key point? Regardless of whether he is in the Four Extremities realm or the Grotto-Heaven realm, how could Zhuyan bow his head and apologize to a junior? It's too unbelievable!"

"According to common sense, it's impossible! But from what I know, Jiang Yuan cannot be inferred based on common sense! The Nine Nether's fifth-level demonic saint entered the ancient heavenly palace ruins, and now Jiang Yuan has returned unharmed!"

"You mean," the Saint pondered for a moment and continued, "something must have happened in the ancient heavenly palace ruins that made Zhu Yan recognize Jiang Yuan's status?"

Another Saint nodded slightly, "Certainly! Haven't you noticed? Just now, Fellow Daoist Zhu Yan also referred to Jiang Yuan as a Fellow Daoist! The term 'Fellow Daoist' itself represents recognition!"

On the other side, the Great Saint Ping Tian looked in the direction where Jiang Yuan was and spoke, "Your Majesty, from what we can see now, it's probably the three human Saints who joined forces to send Jiang Yuan out of the ancient heavenly palace ruins!"

The Monster Emperor Nan Ling also nodded thoughtfully, "That's a possibility. Those three Saints came out of the Southern Gate one after another within a few breaths. The truth of the matter is probably like this."

"In that case, it makes sense that Jiang Yuan came out alive!"

Immediately, a hint of anger flashed in the eyes of the Monster Emperor Nan Ling.

"They are too useless!" he said with a hint of disdain.

Hearing this, the Great Saint Ping Tian's mouth slightly opened, about to speak.

But then his gaze suddenly focused.

"Your Majesty, Du Gu is leaving with Jiang Yuan!" he said.

The Monster Emperor Nan Ling's gaze also narrowed slightly.

On the other side,

"Dean, it's time to go back!" Jiang Yuan said.

Du Gu Bo nodded, "It's time to go back!"

In the next moment, Jiang Yuan turned into a streak of light, carrying Ye Chanxi, and flew towards the direction of the Five Domains and Four Seas.

Du Gu Bo followed Jiang Yuan calmly.

"Dean, can you take me closer to the ancient star where the Monster Race is located?" Jiang Yuan suddenly transmitted his voice to Du Gu Bo.

Upon hearing Jiang Yuan's words, Du Gu Bo's eyes instantly showed some confusion.

Then he suppressed his doubts and said slowly, "No problem! I will try to get closer, and we'll stop when you say so!"

"Thank you, Dean!" Jiang Yuan was overjoyed.

Just as he finished speaking, Jiang Yuan suddenly felt himself enveloped by a vast and mighty power.

In an instant, the three of them turned into a golden light and rushed towards the ancient star where the Monster Race was located.

Seeing this scene, the Monster Emperor Nan Ling's gaze suddenly narrowed, and the aura of this ancient star became extremely heavy.

Feeling the impending storm, the several demonic saints standing in the distance were filled with fear.

"Your Majesty, Du Gu Saint Emperor is coming straight towards us. What does he mean by this?" someone asked.

The Monster Emperor Nan Ling snorted coldly, "No need to worry. If he wants to fight me, I don't mind sending him off."

At the same time, there was a slight fluctuation at the Southern Gate.

In an instant, a group of figures appeared.

They hadn't had time to react when they suddenly felt a wave of time and space changes.

They immediately appeared on the ancient star of the Human Race's saints.

"We have seen the seniors!"

Seeing the figures in front of them, everyone immediately bowed.

"You must leave quickly and not linger here!"

A voice of justice and peace sounded in their ears, and they immediately bowed respectfully.

"Yes!"

Just at this moment.

Clang clang--

Countless sounds of godly chains rubbing against each other rang in their ears.

They followed the sound and saw golden order godly chains suddenly appearing in the depths of the distant starry sky, like agile pythons sweeping across the starry sky.

The golden order godly chains filled the sky, making a "whooshing" sound.

As they passed by several ancient stars, they were instantly affected by the surging power of the godly chains and annihilated.

"Is this the might of heaven?" someone's eyes became solemn, their gaze focused.

"Yes!" a Saint nodded, "So you should leave first. Judging from the situation, Dugu Bo may have to fight against the Southern Ridge Monster Emperor!"

Then this Saint also showed a look of doubt, "I don't know why they suddenly did this! Didn't Dugu Bo leave with Jiang Yuan? Why did he suddenly rush towards the Southern Ridge Monster Emperor?"

When the people heard this, they had no intention of watching anymore.

When the top experts of the world fought in this starry sky, they could completely destroy this starry sky. The aftermath alone was enough to make them perish here. They had no qualifications to watch.

So they nodded repeatedly, "Then we will leave first!"

Just at this moment.

Two Saints looked astonished, muttering to themselves, "How is this possible?"

These two Saints had already learned about what they had seen and heard in their ancient Heavenly Court from the geniuses of their clan, and they also knew about Jiang Yuan's feat at the entrance of the Yaochi.

This news completely shattered their worldview.

"Brothers, what's going on?"

Someone asked.

"It's related to Jiang Yuan! But Qingling Fairy and the other three Fellow Daoists know more than me!"

Seeing the gazes of the other Saints, Nie Yuan said, "We'll talk about it later!"

As he spoke, his gaze was fixed on the direction where Dugu Bo was.

At this time, the Southern Ridge Monster Emperor stood on an ancient star.

Behind this ancient star, golden order godly chains emerged from the void, making a "whooshing" sound as they continuously extended towards Dugu Bo's location.

These order godly chains were just one of the methods of the Southern Ridge Monster Emperor.

Stepping into the pinnacle of the Human Dao, reaching the Supreme level, equal to the will of heaven.

Wherever the Supreme went, it was also the will of heaven and the arrival of the heavenly heart.

As the distance between the two grew closer, everyone's gaze was firmly attracted by them.

On the other side, Jiang Yuan was delighted at this moment. As the distance closed, a majestic golden aura gathered towards him.

Luck power +1810.

Luck power +1580.

Luck power +280.

After absorbing it, Jiang Yuan glanced at his panel.

[luck power]: 6437 strands.

It's a pity that both the Southern Mountain Monster Emperor and another Yao Sheng are not clean. They were harvested in the previous alliance battle.

Jiang Yuan sighed inwardly.

Just then, Dugu Bo whispered to Jiang Yuan, "Is it almost done?"

Jiang Yuan immediately nodded and said, "It's done!"

Upon hearing these words, Dugu Bo felt relieved.

Although he was not afraid of the Southern Mountain Monster Emperor at the moment, it was different when he was with Jiang Yuan. How could he protect the safety of both of them and fight against the current Supreme?

In the next moment, he said to the Southern Mountain Monster Emperor from a distance, "Fellow Daoist, farewell--"

In an instant, he turned around, pierced through the layers of void, and moved faster than when he went to the ancient star where the Southern Mountain Monster Emperor was.

With the departure of this golden light, the order god chains that made a "hissing" sound converged here.

In an instant, the starry sky was torn apart, and the ancient stars affected by the aftermath were silently turned into dust.

"Hmph--"

The Southern Mountain Monster Emperor snorted coldly, raised his hand and smoothed out the vast aftermath in front of him.

"Emperor, what is Dugu trying to do?" The figure of Pingtian Great Saint slowly appeared behind the Southern Mountain Monster Emperor and spoke slowly.

"Just now, he was so far away from me? Are you so afraid of death?" said the Southern Mountain Monster Emperor.

Pingtian Great Saint immediately smiled awkwardly and said, "Emperor, you're joking. How could I be afraid of death?"

"Then you're afraid that I'm not Dugu's opponent?" The Southern Mountain Monster Emperor spoke again.

Pingtian Great Saint shook his head repeatedly and said, "That's even more impossible! Emperor is the only Supreme in the world, naturally the strongest in the world!"

"Forget it!" The Southern Mountain Monster Emperor looked at Dugu Bo who was flying away and shook his head with a sigh.

Then he slowly withdrew his gaze and looked in the direction of the ancient star where the human race was.

"Emperor, now that Dugu has left, should we just take action and deal with them?" Pingtian Great Saint advised.

Facing Pingtian Great Saint's advice, the Southern Mountain Monster Emperor shook his head slightly and said, "Not yet! The time is not ripe to break ties with the human race."

"Then what should we do now?" Pingtian Great Saint asked.

"You wait here. When Jiuyou comes out, let her come see me!" said the Southern Mountain Monster Emperor.

Upon hearing this, Pingtian Great Saint immediately spoke, "Emperor, are you leaving?"

"Yes! Jiang Yuan has left, and there's no use for me to stay here!" The Southern Mountain Monster Emperor's voice fell, and he glanced at Pingtian Great Saint again. "You stay here and oversee the situation. I'll go back to the Southern Mountain first!"

"I bid farewell to the Emperor's return to the Southern Mountain!" Pingtian Great Saint said respectfully.

The Southern Mountain Monster Emperor nodded slightly.

His figure moved, and as soon as he left the ancient star, he instantly revealed his true form, transforming into a golden-winged Peng with golden feathers all over his body.

In the next moment, his wings trembled, and he disappeared from everyone's sight, leaving only a golden light Great Dao that penetrated deep into the universe.

"What a terrifying speed!"

Zhu Yan's expression was horrified as he witnessed this scene.

"It is indeed terrifying. I wonder how Dugu managed to make this South Ridge Monster Emperor so fearful!" A young man dressed in a blue robe murmured, his face filled with confusion and puzzlement.

"Could it be that Dugu is really that powerful? With the body of a Saint, can he rival a Supreme?" he continued.

Nie Yuan nodded slightly and said, "I have seen the dean take action!"

"Oh? How exactly?" The young man in the blue robe immediately showed curiosity.

Upon hearing the doubt of this Saint King, Nie Yuan spoke, "He did not fight against that Monster Emperor, but against the Celestial Phenomenon Great Saint."

"When the dean faced the challenge of the Celestial Phenomenon Great Saint, he moved as if he had crossed time and space, with a speed that was unimaginable."

"By the time I regained my senses, he had already punched the Celestial Phenomenon Great Saint into a mist of blood."

"Then, the dean reached out and captured the Celestial Phenomenon Great Saint's Primordial Spirit, which was contained in the Celestial Phenomenon Great Dao."

Upon hearing these words, the young man in the blue robe pondered silently and murmured to himself.

"No wonder the Celestial Phenomenon Great Saint suddenly disappeared. It turns out it was because of the dean's actions."

Then he said, "Did that Celestial Phenomenon Great Saint also fall into the hands of the dean?"

"Yes!" Nie Yuan nodded. "With three punches, he shook the Great Dao, and the Primordial Spirit of that Celestial Phenomenon Great Saint was also shaken out."

"I see!" The young man in the blue robe nodded and continued, "I didn't know about this. No wonder the Monster Race fears the dean so much."

"But even if he can kill the Celestial Phenomenon Great Saint, it seems that apart from that Monster Emperor, the Nine Spirit Yuan Saints who once competed against him may not be able to preserve their lives in the hands of the dean."

In the starry sky,

Dugu Bo's speed suddenly dropped sharply.

"How is it? Did you achieve your goal?" Jiang Yuan nodded.

"Yes!" Jiang Yuan nodded.

"Good!" Dugu Bo nodded slightly and followed Jiang Yuan calmly.

Then he smiled and asked, "What are your plans for the future?"

Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "I thought the dean would ask me about the purpose of my actions."

Dugu Bo said, "I know that you must have some secrets, but I am not a fool. There is no need for me to pry into your secrets."

"You should also remember that secrets should not be revealed to anyone, no matter who they are or what relationship you have with them."

When Dugu Bo said these last words, he used a secret transmission technique, and only Jiang Yuan could hear them.

Upon hearing Dugu Bo's words, Jiang Yuan also nodded slowly and said, "Thank you for your guidance, Dean. I will remember it."

After that, Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "There is no rush to go back for now."

"Why?" Dugu Bo was taken aback and asked, "What are your plans?"

Jiang Yuan said, "Do you remember what I said before?"

"What did you say?" Dugu Bo asked.

Jiang Yuan said, "Now that I am in charge of Heavenly Punishment, I can help the dean overcome the Heavenly Tribulation."

Upon hearing Jiang Yuan's words, a brilliant light burst out in Dugu Bo's eyes. "Is that true?"

Immediately, an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

Jiang Yuan closed his eyes slightly to sense it, then nodded, "Yes."

Then he continued, "If you can overcome the Heavenly Tribulation, Dean, do you have the confidence to step into the pinnacle of the human realm?"

Dugu Bo nodded, "Of course! I have already stepped half a foot into the pinnacle of the human realm. The nine Great Dao have already been woven into the cocoon of the Great Dao."

"As long as my Primordial Spirit breaks free from its cocoon, I will be able to achieve this ultimate leap, elevate my life's position, and stand shoulder to shoulder with the will of heaven."

"The only thing that troubles me now is that the strength of my Primordial Spirit is not enough to break through this cocoon of the Great Dao."

"As long as I survive the heavenly tribulation and undergo its baptism and tempering, my Primordial Spirit will inevitably undergo a transformation and complete this ultimate leap!"

Upon hearing Dugu Bo's words, Jiang Yuan nodded.

Then he spoke, "Dean, since that's the case, let's find a safe place first. I will summon the heavenly tribulation for you."

Upon hearing Jiang Yuan's words, Dugu Bo's expression immediately became delighted.

"Good!"

Then he said, "Follow me!"

Half a day later.

The three of them left the Southern Sea Star Domain.

This place was also a pure void, within several light-years, there were no ancient stars of life.

"Let's do it here!" Dugu Bo said, "You try here and see if you can trigger the descent of the heavenly tribulation! After all, now the three thousand Great Daos only converge in the Five Domains and Four Seas. The farther away from the Five Domains and Four Seas, the weaker the Great Dao!"

Jiang Yuan nodded slightly and closed his eyes.

After a few breaths.

Crack--

A purple thunderbolt pierced through the starry sky, illuminating the entire sky. Broken meteorites floated in this void, rotating around the Southern Sea Star Domain at a relatively slow speed.

With the appearance of this purple thunderbolt, boundless black clouds mixed with purple electric silver snakes converged above Dugu Bo's head.

"The Ninth Heavenly Tribulation!"

"It's actually the heavenly tribulation!"

Dugu Bo widened his eyes and looked at the calamity clouds gathering above him, then a look of ecstasy appeared on his face.

Even though he had reached this step, cultivated for thousands of years, and his state of mind had long been as calm as still water, it was difficult for him to feel great joy or sorrow.

But at this moment, he couldn't control the wild joy in his heart.

Through the baptism and tempering of the heavenly tribulation, he could perceive vitality amidst destruction.

This was of great benefit to the path of cultivation. As for tempering the Primordial Spirit and strengthening it, it was even more crucial for him.

Watching the continuous rumbling above his head, the silver snakes dancing, and the heavy black clouds constantly falling, Dugu Bo suppressed the joy in his expression and said solemnly to Jiang Yuan.

"I originally thought that I had no hope of achieving Supreme Dao in this lifetime. Your help today is a great favor for me on the path of enlightenment!"

"This favor surpasses all worldly favors!"

Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "Dean, please don't say too much. Without your support, I wouldn't have achieved what I have today."

Then Jiang Yuan looked at the Thunder Tribulation above Dugu Bo's head and continued, "Dean, get ready! The heavenly tribulation is about to descend!"

"Good!" Dugu Bo nodded heavily and said to Jiang Yuan, "I won't say anything more. As long as I'm still here, you will definitely be alive."

After saying this, Dugu Bo restrained his expression and looked up at the sky.

Boom--

With a loud noise, even in the vacuum of space, such a roar could not be concealed.

Jiang Yuan was not surprised by this phenomenon at all.

Now, anything he said or did would resonate with the heavens and the earth.

Casually speaking, it could instantly reach millions of miles away.

Including the roaring sound coming from the heavenly tribulation, there was no need for any so-called medium like air.

All of them are spread through the Great Dao, rules, heaven and earth, space, and so on.

A thunderbolt flashes, and the sound of thunder can be heard instantly for tens of thousands of miles in all directions. If we look at it from the perspective of the past, it is simply breaking common sense.

Jiang Yuan glanced at Dugu Bo, who was bathed in thunder, and continued to move away from him with Ye Chanxi.

After a moment.

The two have already arrived at a place far away from Dugu Bo.

The Nine Tribulations of Heaven and Earth also appeared very small in the eyes of the two, just a small group.

"You should also go through the Heavenly Tribulation!" Jiang Yuan said.

Ye Chanxi nodded, "Okay! It's also a chance for me to experience the feeling of transcending the Heavenly Tribulation. The Heavenly Tribulation has disappeared for millions of years. I didn't expect it to reappear in your hands today."

"With the baptism and tempering of the Heavenly Tribulation, obtaining the Supreme Dao Fruit and stepping into the realm of humanity will be much simpler." Ye Chanxi said again.

"Come on! Strike me!" Jiang Yuan said, "You are pregnant now, are you confident?"

Ye Chanxi smiled slightly, "Don't worry too much. Anyway, let's start with the Nine Thunder Tribulations. If it doesn't work, I will stop in time!"

Jiang Yuan nodded.

In the next moment.

His mind moved slightly.

Crack--

A purple thunderbolt tore through the starry sky, instantly illuminating the entire sky.

Then the dark clouds rolled and the silver snakes danced.

Seeing this, Jiang Yuan retreated.

"If you are not sure, don't force it. Stop in time! I will control the Heavenly Tribulation to disperse." Ye Chanxi said, "Don't worry! This kind of small Heavenly Tribulation doesn't put any pressure on me!"

Jiang Yuan said, "Don't underestimate it! Although the Nine Tribulations of Heaven and Earth are not as powerful as the Nine Nine Tribulations, let alone the Saint Tribulation, as your strength increases, the power of the Nine Tribulations of Heaven and Earth will increase exponentially."

"If you can't hold on, inform me immediately!" Ye Chanxi nodded repeatedly, "Okay, I'll listen to you!"

In an instant, Jiang Yuan had already moved far away from Ye Chanxi.

Boom--

The sound of thunder rolled behind him, accompanied by rumbling roars.

In front of him, a thick purple thunderbolt struck down, and the thunder light instantly engulfed Ye Chanxi's figure.

Jiang Yuan actually didn't worry much about Ye Chanxi's transcending the Nine Thunder Tribulations.

He was only worried about the Saint Thunder Tribulation.

Now Ye Chanxi could become a saint at any time.

If she chose to transcend the tribulation and become a saint, she would become much stronger, and her Dao Fruit would be more complete, but it would also be much more dangerous.

But if she became a saint normally without transcending the tribulation, with her accumulation, there was no doubt that it would be a matter of course.

At this moment, Jiang Yuan was also conflicted in his heart, but then he sighed lightly.

"Never mind, let her decide for herself!"
