Shen Yue's speculations about Li Wancheng were based on worldly reasoning and made perfect sense. Soon, Shikong's subsequent remarks confirmed his conjectures.

"Li saw that the old monk continually sought conversation with the wise about spiritual cultivation. He shared that he and his companions planned to visit a mysterious place where wise individuals may dwell and asked the monk whether he was interested in accompanying them..."

As Shikong narrated past events, Lady Cai, whose primary concern was the potential rescue of her son, found herself becoming increasingly absorbed. After all, her husband had never talked to her about these past incidents, which seemed quite unusual.
