The Sparring Begins!
Bai Qing'er thought of the day when on a sect mission, she asked the Inner Court disciple, the senior sister, who was leading them. She had asked, 'Senior sister, if you ever encounter a chance to get the ability to read someone's thoughts about you, will you keep it?'
The reply from her Senior Sister didn't surprise her when she said, 'Of course, I will accept it. This is the best ability I can ask for. Imagine knowing what people think about you. You will never be betrayed, never be lied to, and will never be at a disadvantage.'
When Bai Qing'er heard this, she wanted to argue back. But her words remained stuck in her throat.
She had thought, 'You may know all the secrets, but you will lose everything else. I remember when I was a kid, I didn't have this ability. I miss those days. Even though now, with this ability, I can see everyone's true nature.'
