"True Venerable, ever since you left, Du Yunfei has been cultivating within the Liuhuo Sect. Because of her single Fire Spiritual Root, she gradually rose to prominence. Her outstanding talent in alchemy drew the attention of the new disciples, and she was eventually taken in as a disciple by Lord Huoyi of the Liuhuo Sect, enjoying a time of unmatched prestige.
"Later on, relying on her backing, she recklessly hoarded resources, raising her cultivation to the late Qi Condensation stage and becoming the top disciple among all the newcomers. However, it was around this time that scandals broke out regarding her harming outstanding disciples within the Liuhuo Sect. The matter was even reported to her master.
"The junior cultivator who filed the report was a ruthless one. They produced a projection stone capturing her act of harming her peers and swore an oath to the Heavenly Dao in public, accusing Du Yunfei of being the culprit. Du Yunfei, however, dared not swear an oath of denial, leaving Lord Huoyi profoundly disappointed. He banished her from his side, sending her off alone to a small peak where she was only responsible for refining pills.
