"Will people know that I can cultivate now?" Bai Xifeng asked seriously.
"If their cultivation level is higher than yours, they might be able to see through you." Baishe nodded after thinking for a moment. Then he narrowed his eyes. "What? You don't want others to know about your cultivation?"
"I don't want them to know about it for now. Do you have a hack to hide my cultivation?" Bai Xifeng sighed.
"Hack? Hack people?" Baishe frowned, clearly not understanding what she meant.
"I mean, do you have a way to conceal my cultivation power? I want to appear as trash." Bai Xifeng explained patiently.
"Oh. Yes, I can help you conceal your cultivation. However, once you use your power, others will immediately notice it." Baishe stated honestly.
"Great. Then I just won't use my cultivation power in front of others for now," Bai Xifeng nodded in satisfaction.
Suddenly, she remembered something. "Baishe, didn't you say we're also going to test what my element is?"
"Yes." Baishe took out another tool.
It was a circular chart with a small arrow pointer in the centre. Around the chart were written different elemental names.
"Hmm, do I need to do the same thing as before?" Bai Xifeng asked curiously.
"This time, just touch it. There's no need to use your cultivation power." Baishe instructed.
"Okay." Bai Xifeng placed her hand on the tool.
The arrow on the chart began to move. It spun rapidly several times before gradually slowing down. Finally, it stopped at a blank space. There were no words written there, unlike the other sections.
"You…" Baishe stared at Bai Xifeng in shock.
Bai Xifeng was equally confused. 'Huh?' She did not understand his reaction at all. Baishe kept looking at the chart repeatedly, as if doubting what he was seeing.
"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Bai Xifeng asked impatiently. "Do I even have an element?"
It stopped at a blank space.
'Does this mean I don't have any element at all? I was trash before, and now I'm elementless? What the hell??? King Yama, are you kidding me???'
Bai Xifeng shouted in her mind, scolding King Yama fiercely.
At that very moment, King Yama, who was busy doing his paperwork, suddenly sneezed.
His assistant quickly looked up in concern.
'King Yama has been sneezing quite often lately,' the assistant thought silently.
Back in the mirror world, Baishe trembled slightly. He had never expected to witness someone with all the element attributes. At first, he had thought Bai Xifeng might only possess the fire element since she learned to control fire so quickly while making pills. But this…
She had all the attributes.
In ancient times, a person who possessed all elemental attributes was highly respected and greatly valued. However, as time passed, people's perspectives changed.
Those who had all the elements were often belittled because their cultivation speed tended to be slower. They were mocked and gradually lost their motivation as they were neglected and looked down upon by others.
Baishe had lived for a very long time and knew this history well. He felt that humans were truly foolish to forget that someone with all elemental attributes could surpass everyone else, if they cultivated correctly.
"Baishe? Baishe? Can you hear me?" Bai Xifeng waved her hand in front of his face.
Baishe snapped out of his thoughts. "Yes."
"What happened to you? You suddenly went silent." Bai Xifeng asked suspiciously.
"Nothing. I was just thinking about something else." Baishe replied.
"By the way, can you tell me what this means?" Bai Xifeng pointed at the chart again.
"You have all the elemental attributes." Baishe stated carefully while watching her reaction.
"What? All of them?" Bai Xifeng blinked several times in disbelief.
"Let me expl—" Baishe began, thinking she would feel upset.
However, before he could finish, Bai Xifeng suddenly jumped happily.
"I have all of them? That's amazing!" she shouted.
Baishe was stunned once again by her reaction.
"You're happy?" he asked cautiously.
Bai Xifeng stopped jumping and looked at him in confusion. "Why would I not be happy?"
"Well… to others, having all the element attributes is not considered a good thing…" Baishe tried to explain.
But Bai Xifeng immediately rebuked him. "What? Not a good thing? That's nonsense! It's clearly a good thing. You people just don't understand. Most people only have one element to control, but I can control all of them. That gives me more flexibility and more advantages. I'm extremely happy!" She laughed brightly.
Baishe was completely speechless. He truly did not expect her to be so delighted.
Then he remembered again. Bai Xifeng was a soul from another world. She did not share the same rigid mindset as the people here.
Perhaps this was not a bad thing at all. She would cultivate without being restricted by the prejudices of this world.
"Baishe, how do I control my elements?" Bai Xifeng asked eagerly.
"Imagine the element you want and let your power flow naturally." Baishe explained.
Bai Xifeng raised her hand and stared at it intensely. She focused her mind, imagining flames.
A small fire immediately appeared on her palm.
"I did it!" Bai Xifeng said excitedly.
"Your maid is calling you. Someone is coming to your courtyard." Baishe informed her.
Bai Xifeng sneered coldly. "It must be that woman who wants to covet my money. I'll go and see what she has to say after failing to steal from me."
Baishe returned to the earring and followed Bai Xifeng out of the mirror world.
As expected, Bai Chunhua had arrived at her courtyard.
Bai Chunhua was still upset that her attempt to steal Bai Xifeng's money had failed. She came to check on the condition of Bai Xifeng's courtyard. In her mind, the men she hired must have tried to sneak in last night. She was certain the courtyard would be in complete chaos, since Bai Xifeng only had one maid to clean up such a mess.
