The Ghost-faced Monk has been controlling the Ding Family in Tianyun City for some time now.
As a part of the Great Elder's lineage, the Dings naturally understand the current situation of the Shuis.
The conflict between the Shuis' direct lineage and the Great Elder's lineage, as well as the fact that the ancestor of the Shui family's direct lineage is currently in seclusion, are things the Ghost-faced Monk learned earlier from the Ding Family Head.
This Ghost-faced Monk is notoriously vengeful. He could have stayed within the Ding Family, quietly cultivating his demonic skills, waiting for the day the Demon Emperor Xue Tian revives, but all of this was disrupted by the Shuis' direct lineage.
The Ghost-faced Monk also heard that his whereabouts were exposed by a boy who was with Yu Wenxuan and Yu Wan'er.
The Ghost-faced Monk couldn't let this go. Despite his monk-like attire, he certainly doesn't have the compassion a monk should possess.
