Before her rebirth, the heroine's reputation wasn't good. You could say she was arrogant, domineering, and utterly notorious. Yet, someone like that actually pleaded for the original owner! When everyone else believed the original owner was wicked beyond redemption, she stood up for her, which made her seem exceptionally kind and brave.
Her plea did have some effect. At the very least, the Sky Travel Sect didn't punish her severely. Instead, they just casually threw her into some forgotten corner to do menial labor. The original owner had no talent for Cultivating Immortality and could only live her life as an ordinary person, experiencing birth, aging, sickness, and death. But if that were all, how could it possibly highlight the heroine's halo?
