After a while, Wu Long resumed retelling her the story of how he got here, and finally got to the point it was possible to retell the events of what happened after Hong Xinyi fell out of the Spatial Rift wormhole in a way that made sense to her, concluding, "...so that's all I know about from Fairy Xun"
He wanted to ask what happened to her, but held back to give her time to process what she learned from him.
Hong Xinyi obviously knew that her cultivation dropped to the Mortal Transcendence Realm, but knowing it while being overwhelmed by other thoughts and feelings, as well as part-consciously part-unconsciously ignoring it, and actually hearing it from him and confirming it wasn't temporary but permanent hit differently.
However, her recovery from these revelations was as quick as Wu Long's when he woke up as Body Transformation Realm youth - she only took a few minutes to process and come to terms with it.
