• Su Yueli learned that no one had reached the fifteenth realm in ten thousand years, realized spiritual cultivation was limited by flaws in the world's laws, and decided to investigate the Great Xia Immortal Dynasty.

Su Yueli saw how the world had changed during her ten-thousand-year absence and learned that later generations had rewritten her history as the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady. After effortlessly stopping a stray sword attack, she left the tavern and disappeared among the crowds.

• Su Yueli watched the girl practice for twelve hours as her hands blistered and bled, while memories of Han Yu resurfaced.
• At dusk, the exhausted girl dropped the sword and collapsed, and Su Yueli left the wall and walked toward her.

Su Yueli killed five Black Tiger Gang cultivators who were extorting a blacksmith and offered to teach martial arts to Han Yu, a girl who had attacked them with a broken ancestral sword technique.
