The pagoda's last master was the 25th Fuyao Palace Master?' Darryl was slightly bewildered at that.
Cindy looked at the pagoda and frowned as she said with a conflicted tone, "Five hundred years ago, the 25th Fuyao Palace Master—Amber Slater stumbled upon this pagoda together with the man she loved.”
At that, Cindy sighed.
'Man?' Darryl subconsciously frowned. 'I thought men had no social status in Fuyao Palace?’
As he had that thought going through his mind, he heard Cindy continuing, "Amber loved that man but didn’t expect that man to cheat on her with another woman and even had a child together after being together for less than a year. Amber was extremely sad and furious, so she trapped him inside the pagoda."
At that, Cindy stopped for a while with her exquisite face filled with conflicts. "After that, Amber got dejected and never trusted any men again. That was why she concluded there aren't any good men on Earth and set a new rule to forbid Fuyao Palace from accepting male disciples."
'No wonder men had no place in the Fuyao Palace.'
Darryl nodded in realization upon hearing Cindy's explanation before looking at her and curiously asked, "What happened next?"
Cindy sighed gently and said slowly, "After that, the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda was nowhere to be seen and only mentioned in Fuyao Palace's records. The Palace Masters after Amber thought that she had destroyed the pagoda, but unexpectedly, she actually buried the pagoda under the Main Flower Hall."
Cindy became melancholic at that. "Amber hated the man who cheated on her.
However, she could not bear to kill him deep in her heart, so she buried the pagoda here instead."
Irene and the others sighed as well.
Darryl was momentarily silent while he scratched his head and muttered to himself in his heart, "What’s there to be emotional about? It happened a few
hundred years ago... Hold on!"
