Many people are just lacking a bit of clarity.
Because of obsession, they become so immersed that they can't extricate themselves.
It's like when a man falls in love with a "goddess," becoming delirious all day long. What he actually loves is not the goddess, but the illusion and beautiful vision constructed in his mind.
But this doesn't exist at all.
Either you perish in your fantasy or you are destroyed by it.
So when a man soberly jumps out from his illusion, he may find that the goddess in his heart might be even more unbearable than ordinary people.
Being clear-headed allows one to make the right choice.
Ye Xingchen is very clear-headed, so he had a thorough understanding of what Liu Wu couldn't see back then—his anger didn't lead him to irrational actions.
But for a moment, he couldn't understand Liu Qi's behavior.
Liu Qi seemed very clear-headed and confident, even complacent. "But... you wouldn't kill me, would you?"
Zhang Jixian was speechless.
