When Song Nianchu went to repair the other formation, Shangguan Lian emerged. Only upon coming out did she learn that Song Nianchu was still inside the Dark Forest. Since Song Nianchu hadn't come out, how could Shangguan Lian let such a golden opportunity slip by? Although she desperately hoped Song Nianchu would die in there, that didn't stop her from tarnishing Song Nianchu’s reputation.
She didn't need to do it herself. The people who had accompanied her, acting on her orders, spared no effort in spreading rumors about what Song Nianchu was doing inside. Naturally, it was a complete distortion of the truth. They claimed that Song Nianchu had ambushed them the moment she went in, using the fact that she was alone to her advantage so she could hide easily. They even accused her of sabotaging their work while they were repairing the formations. In short, they shifted the blame for all their own misdeeds onto Song Nianchu. Some who heard these stories even posted them to the Information Plaza.
At that moment, Song Nianchu had just arrived at the formation Shangguan Lian had previously abandoned. She had no idea how her reputation was being shredded outside.
