There’s a saying at Biluomen: Don’t provoke Shang Ruoling, or you’ll be unlucky.
[One]
She roams the world with talismans in hand, and when trouble strikes, she simply lies down and takes it.
She shuts her eyes and plays dead on the spot. If you won’t take advice, then leave your fate to heaven.
[Two]
Heaven opened a door for her. Shang Ruoling became a talisman cultivator famous at a young age. With her skills at summoning thunder, dust, and corpses, she could use all kinds of talismans to blast water, blow up mountains, and clear paths, stunning the cultivation world.
So she was frail and sickly, unable to lift a shoulder or carry a load, and spent half of every year taking medicine.
[Three]
Thanks to her strong mindset, she was Biluoshan’s “master of psychological counseling.” She could offer comfort to anyone, from cultivators tormented by blocked progress to those on the Heartless Path nursing heartbreak. That’s why everyone thought so highly of her. They absolutely couldn’t let their one and only counselor come to any harm!

There was also a mysterious senior sister tucked away in a corner of the mountain. Reclusive and rarely seen, she was almost never around.
To make sure the senior sister wasn’t suffering from any mental health issues, Shang Ruoling volunteered to bring her water, talismans, and warmth.
After keeping at it for months, she finally managed to strike up a conversation with her senior sister!
After another few months, she finally got to go on a mission with her!
Her senior sister mastered thunder techniques, was dashing and elegant, and had the pure beauty of ice and jade... The two became more and more in sync, and Shang Ruoling especially loved teaming up with her. Her senior sister could take on ten people at once, saved all the good stuff for her, and was unbelievably strong!
After a few months of teaming up, they grew even closer, and their missions became more demanding. Because she was exhausted and couldn’t manage the journey home, Shang Ruoling often spent the night in her senior sister’s room.
Her senior sister would sit quietly in meditation, refusing to come over no matter how Shang Ruoling invited her.
“We’re both girls! Senior Sister, you really won’t come over?”
Much later, Shang Ruoling habitually wrapped her arms around her senior sister’s waist and told her solemnly, “Honestly, I really like your type, Senior Sister. Too bad you’re my senior sister...”
Shen Zhaoxue chuckled at that and smoothly wrapped her arms around her in return. Her usually cool and distant voice dropped several notes, sounding nothing like a woman’s. “Who told you I was your ‘senior sister’?”
“...” Shang Ruoling realized something.
The beautiful senior sister who was always so good to her, letting her touch, squeeze, rub, and hug her, and walking hand in hand with her...
Was a man?!
