Chen Yuan paid no heed to the hustle and bustle of the outside world; he had no interest in managing it, preferring not to be the man caught in the storm if possible.

After declining Tao Qingyuan's invitation to a banquet at the Gathering Immortals Tower, Chen Yuan returned to the secret chamber in the Earl's estate for cultivation. The servants and slaves were already accustomed to his habits and no longer found them strange.
Initially, they thought Chen Yuan's youthful vigor made him difficult to serve and they were anxious, afraid of inadvertently angering this Master Chen.
