After discovering her husband's infidelity, Xu Yilan—once the revered Matriarch of the powerful Sky Pillar Palace—chose to divorce and retreat to an ordinary life with her children. Her only wish was to let them endure life's hardships and grow into mature, resilient individuals. However, peace was short-lived: her children were bullied by the son of River City's ruler. Enraged by the injustice, Xu Yilan could no longer hide her true power. She stepped forward, swiftly subduing the entire River City ruler's family. In that moment, she realized her children had already grown—mentally strong and wise beyond their years. With her parental duty fulfilled and her resolve reignited, Xu Yilan made a bold announcement to the world: she was returning to reclaim her throne at Sky Pillar Palace.
