For five hundred years, I have been bound in this forbidden land, and yet here you are, dear Independent Cultivator, shedding tears for what reason?

Summary

Su Ru Mei, the manager of Wan Bao Tower, is concerned about the mysterious figure Feng Bu Gui, whose background they cannot uncover. Despite her subordinate's embarrassment over the lack of information, Su Ru Mei deduces that Feng Bu Gui is likely an Independent Cultivator who has left his sect and chosen a pseudonym to hide his past. She believes he is more significant than he appears, especially since he can stand against stronger cultivators like Ren Qing. Su Ru Mei decides to treat Feng Bu Gui with respect and provide him a private carriage once he completes his Entering Dao, anticipating his potential rise in power.

Nian Chao Xi challenges them, highlighting their neglect of Gu Xiu's sacrifices for the sect, leaving the women speechless and introspective about their choices.
