According to Su Zheng, Su Xuan encountered Murong Youran—who was disguised as a man—while pursuing a demonic cultivator to the Frost Continent.
Due to a scheme orchestrated by the demonic cultivator, a misunderstanding arose, leading Su Xuan to believe that Murong Youran was the notorious philandering thief known as Daoist Tianzui. Consequently, the two clashed. During the fight, Su Xuan struck off Murong Youran’s sash, revealing her true identity as a woman, which finally cleared up the misunderstanding. However, feeling deeply insulted by Su Xuan’s accusations, Murong Youran refused to let the matter go and vowed to make Su Xuan pay.
The two fought a fierce battle across the Frost Continent that ended in a stalemate. During the encounter, something unexpected happened that sparked a strange affection in Murong Youran toward Su Xuan. But since Su Xuan had come for the demonic cultivator, she did not wish to tangle with Murong Youran any further and seized an opportunity to slip away.
