The mature beauty's expression was slightly uncomfortable, but she didn't insist. She withdrew her hand and stood by the window with Bai Jingjing, looking out at the scenery.
"Are you getting used to life at the Sky Sword Sect?" the mature beauty asked casually.
"Not at all, and I don't want to get used to it. I like my life in the Mortal World," Bai Jingjing replied.
The mature beauty's phoenix eyes suddenly narrowed. "As a woman, what need is there for you to fight and kill in the Mortal World? Eventually, you are destined to marry. Learning embroidery, attending to men—that is your fate as a woman, something you cannot change."
Bai Jingjing scoffed, "Is that so? Then why didn't you? You eloped with my father, had me, got captured and returned, then changed your mind and married another man, giving birth to another girl. By doing so, are you being fair to the man who loved you?"
The mature beauty fell silent for a while, then said indifferently, "...You don't understand."
