Even though Su Xuan had obtained the antidote from Xie Xiangxiang, his conflict with Qiuyue had escalated to the point of irreconcilable differences.
Not long after Su Xuan returned, Xie Xiangxiang came back as well. At this time, Qiuyue had already returned to her normal state and was about to make things difficult for Xie Xiangxiang when Su Xuan stopped her, for she had become one of his own.
Seeing Xie Xiangxiang walking with a limp, Qiuyue asked Su Xuan what was going on, and naturally, Su Xuan couldn't tell her that it was because he had been too forceful, which caused her to be unable to withstand it.
All Su Xuan explained was, "It was from the beating I gave her. Isn't there a saying, 'A good man does not fight with women'? This time, I let her off the hook."
