A phoenix is hunted down in the mountains. After plying it with touching poetry and failing to elicit naught but disdainful snoring, its tears are squeezed out through the apparent butchering of its chicks, as they are slowly plucked, dressed, seasoned, and cooked to a rich golden brown. The bird was torn partly because its own progeny smelled so delicious, and then after when it was revealed the chicks were baby thorides under a highly unflattering jold glitter foil. It soon leaves in a harrumph, but not before Huáng's hands infuse it with a significant measure of his own Qi.
The time of reaping will come.

Floating using one's extended pony tail had already lost its glam, and a new method of impressing the jade beauties was needed.
One day, a disciple was cultivating his Iron Palm technique under a waterfall by a seaside cliff, as is custom. So deep was his concentration, that he did not notice himself slipping, falling, and powdering several rocks in his path. It was only when he started running out of air that his eyes opened, as he panickedly noticed he was at an unprecedented depth under the water, seeing beasts beyond ken. Hastily, he began emptying himself from thought, and just as quickly as he'd sank, he floated, up, up through the depths, until he rocketed out of the water in a great splash.
And now the sect elders have to organize a weekly rescue mission for the disciple that sinks far deeper than he can return.
