Appearance

Shui Bing'er is a striking blue-haired young woman whose beauty and calm bearing often cause others to underestimate her. At her first appearance, she was described as sixteen or seventeen, with snow-white skin, refined features, and long water-blue hair; her usual presence was icy, aloof, and elegant. 2

• Long water-blue hair and clear, gem-like eyes. 2 147
• Fair complexion and a slender figure, often dressed in pale or light-blue clothing. 147 151
• Manifests blue ice wings while using her Ice Phoenix Martial Soul. 15 318
• Her Martial Soul aura produces intense cold, frost, and ice crystals around her. 3 175

Personality

Shui Bing'er is composed, proud, and difficult to intimidate. Though her gentle appearance leads many to assume she is mild or weak, she possesses the pride of Skywater Academy's foremost genius and responds fiercely when her team is belittled. 175 She refuses unwanted advances directly, as shown by her rejection of Xue Beng and her determination to kill Li Lingtian after he betrayed and poisoned her. 3 149

She is also compassionate. She warned Fang Xuan to evade the uncontrollable Ice Phoenix fusion attack despite being in the middle of a match, and she borrowed money to free an enslaved Fox Woman at auction. 177 182 Her later circumstances made her more desperate and deceptive: trapped in an arranged marriage, she falsely claimed to be carrying Fang Xuan's child to escape the Kirin Young Master. 304 312

Her attachment to Fang Xuan remains central to her later life. She confessed her feelings, waited for him after his departure from Skywater City, and kept his broken Shadowless Blade until her death. 312 330 463 464

Relationships

• Fang Xuan — Her rescuer, rival, ally, and eventual love interest. Their relationship began after he killed Li Lingtian, became strained when he copied her Martial Soul by cutting her, and later developed through shared battles, her confession, and his protection of her. She died waiting for him; he ultimately resurrected her. 3 5 312 318 463 527

Story Role / Major Arcs

Encounter in the Sunset Forest

Shui Bing'er first appears fighting Li Lingtian while poisoned by his Passionate Rose. Despite being four levels below him, she overwhelms him with the Ice Phoenix and Repelling Ice Ring, but the drug eventually disperses her Soul Power. Fang Xuan kills Li Lingtian before he can assault her. 2 3

Afterward, Fang Xuan uses a God-Bestowed Blade on her to copy the Ice Phoenix Martial Soul. The act leaves Shui Bing'er angry and suspicious of him, though the two survive a Dark Demonic Tiger attack together. 5 She later introduces Fang Xuan to Shui Yue'er as her savior, only to learn that he lied about his identity. 6 7

Soul Master Competition

As Skywater Team's captain, Shui Bing'er confronts Fang Xuan's Imperial Dou Team in the qualifiers. Angered by claims that Skywater Team was only a group of pretty faces, she opens aggressively, defeats three opponents with Repelling Ice Ring, and later freezes the full enemy team with Profound Nether Ice Flame. 175 176

She and Xue Wu then activate Ice Snow Drifting—Ice Phoenix. Although she loses control of the technique and warns Fang Xuan to evade it, their clash ends in a draw when Fang Xuan chooses not to strike her down. 177

Arranged Marriage and Escape

After returning to the Chaos Territory, Shui Bing'er is treated as a political bargaining chip by her family and forced toward marriage with the Kirin Young Master. Her cultivation is sealed, and Shui Ji is assigned to keep her under control. 299 Fang Xuan reveals that the Kirin Young Master is an Evil Soul Master, intensifying her determination to escape. 301

At the wedding, she claims that she is pregnant with Fang Xuan's child, publicly humiliating the Kirin Young Master and forcing Fang Xuan into the conflict. The claim is later revealed to have been staged using hidden clothing rather than an actual pregnancy. 304 312

Star Dou Great Forest

Stranded with Fang Xuan in the Star Dou Great Forest, Shui Bing'er confesses her feelings and relies on him to break the seal on her Soul Power. 312 314 With his assistance, she kills a Ten-Thousand-Year Ice Luan, absorbs its Soul Ring, and becomes a Five-Ring Soul King. 314

When the Titan Giant Ape pursues her, she seeks protection behind Fang Xuan. Her confession influences his decision to face both the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Azure Bull Python for her sake. 318

Rule of Skywater City

Upon returning home, Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er face a hostile clan that seeks to hand her over to the Kirin Cave Mansion. 321 Fang Xuan subdues the Shui Family, appoints Shui Bing'er clan leader, and provides her with Soul Bones, medicine, and loyal elders controlled through fire poison. 323

She subsequently becomes City Lord of Skywater City after reaching the Soul Emperor realm, then serves as vice leader of Fang Xuan's Mysterious Alliance. 324 328

Death and Resurrection

After Fang Xuan leaves Skywater City, Shui Bing'er waits for him and falls into despondency. Her health and cultivation decline until she dies at age twenty-one, still holding the broken Shadowless Blade. 463 464

Fang Xuan later discovers her death and unsuccessfully attempts to restore her with Divine Power and the Nine Heart Begonia. 464 In the final chapter, he uses Sovereign Power to reverse life and death, resurrecting her from her ice coffin. 527
