Laoxin Yue and other elders firmly oppose the women going up the mountain, think it it is nonsense, unlucky and so on. In response to the feudal remnants of the discussion, Xian Yue does not compromise, carrying out a face-to-face struggle and eventually leading the commando members up the mountain.
