DH Algorithm - Direction of X

In Denavit-Hartenberg Algorithm, the way to assign x-axis is as follows.

Select Xk to be orthogonal to Zk and Zk-1

Considering the case where Zk and Zk-1 intersect, I can chose 2 opposite directions of Xk which are orthogonal to Zk and Zk-1. Which is the right direction? Or is it arbitrary?
