This middle-aged man possesses the cultivation of a Nine Tribulations Supreme Sword God. His self-description as a "humble person" is enough to show his respect for Chang'e.
In any place, strength is respected.
Otherwise, with the man's cultivation several levels higher than Chang'e's, how could he easily lower himself and refer to himself as "a humble person"?
"My name is Chang'e, and I am not your lady! I grew up in the Azure Dragon Heavenly Kingdom on the Divine Martial Continent. I was sent to the Imperial Palace at a very young age and became a palace maid." Chang'e stated her identity to clarify the misunderstanding.
She was not willing to be someone's lady without reason.
"Did you grow up in the palace of the Azure Dragon Heavenly Kingdom? I'll invite the master over right away!"
She thought this would clear up the misunderstanding and the middle-aged man would leave.
Unexpectedly, he did not leave; instead, he was even more convinced that Chang'e was indeed his lady.
