The Immortal Venerable and Her Many-Faced Beauty

Ling Ruolan often wondered if picking up strays was an ancestral tradition of theirs. But good deeds are rewarded: her master picked her up and got a prodigiously gifted genius disciple in return; when she picked someone up, she got a beautiful older sister who was gentle, kind, and a skilled pastry chef. For someone with an insatiable sweet tooth, that was a huge blessing! But at some point, a hint of an unfamiliar feeling appeared in her sister's eyes whenever she looked at her.

Yan Yunshuang would never forget the first time she saw Ling Ruolan. That person had descended like a deity, helping her crawl out of hell and return to the world of the living. Ling Ruolan was like a radiant piece of uncut jade, a rare beauty in a tranquil world, and like a spark of fire that could drive away all darkness simply by drawing near. Yan Yunshuang was captivated. The seed in her heart grew wildly, and she longed to keep that warmth all to herself.

When they first met:

Yan Yunshuang asked nervously, "Is it good?"

Ling Ruolan said happily, "It's delicious! Better than any pastry I've ever had!"

Yan Yunshuang was overjoyed. "If you like them, I'll make them for you every day."

Before Ling Ruolan caught on:

Yan Yunshuang pleaded, "I like you. I only want to stay by your side, no matter what that makes me."

Ling Ruolan looked bewildered. "But what does it mean to like someone?"

Seven days later, Ling Ruolan charged alone into the Ten Thousand Demons Grotto for her. The face-slapping came fast.

When Yan Yunshuang rebuilt Penglai:

People said, "The Island Master of Penglai is ruthless and terrifying."

Ling Ruolan answered innocently, "That's nonsense. Sister Yunshuang is the kindest and gentlest person there is."

Everyone was speechless. "You have some seriously rose-tinted glasses on."

Yan Yunshuang arched her beautiful brows. "Any objections?"

Everyone panicked. "None at all! We wish the Immortal Venerable and the Island Master a lifetime of happiness together!"
