Background / History

As Skywater Academy's captain and future successor, Shui Bing'er carries responsibility for the academy during a period of suppression by Martial Soul Hall. Concerned for Skywater's survival, she independently seeks support from Xiao Yun after recognizing the value of his theories on Soul Power, Martial Soul evolution, and meridian circulation. 374 375

She asks to enter Xiao Yun's sect on behalf of his purported master, Immortal Taibai. After hearing his explanation of the Immortal Dao's emphasis on self-transcendence and limitless potential, she formally recognizes Xiao Yun as her senior brother. 376 Her decision brings Skywater Academy a powerful connection: she receives cultivation resources, introduces Xiao Yun to Shui Ruoyan, and helps establish his protection over the academy. 377 378 452

Later, Shui Bing'er accepts the decision to follow Xiao Yun personally. Her feelings for him become increasingly open over time, while she continues to serve as a capable representative of Skywater Academy and the Shui family. 462 686 860

She joins Shui Ruoyan, Yao Yuerou, Shui Yue'er, and Yao Zi in a private agreement to follow Xiao Yun and support one another. The arrangement also places Shui Yue'er's unwanted marriage to Xu Xuanling under Xiao Yun's protection. 463

Following the Dragon Ascending Town campaign, Shui Bing'er joins Xiao Yun's all-female Personal Guard alongside Shui Yue'er and Yao Zi. She also serves as his secretary, reporting on the town's wharf expansion, coastal defenses, academy construction, and broader development plans. 728 759

Having grown up at Skywater Academy, she is familiar with Snow Spirit Province's geography and local traditions. When accompanying Xiao Yun through the Dragon Ascending Mountain Range, she contributes an old legend remembered from her elders to his investigation of the region. Xiao Yun also explains his intention to establish a sect that will provide her and his other followers with a home, cultivation resources, and protection. 755 756

By the time she visits Xiao Yun's Medicine Garden, Tianmeng recognizes Shui Bing'er as both Xiao Yun's junior sister and madam. 865

After becoming familiar with skiing on White Phoenix Snow Peak, Shui Bing'er recounts her time skiing with Xiao Yun to the other women during an evening banquet, drawing their envy. 962 979

At the same banquet, she listens with interest as Yao Zi describes entering Qi Transformation into Spirit and acquiring Spiritual Sense. Shui Bing'er joins the others in asking what the breakthrough feels like; the passage does not establish a corresponding advancement for her. 979

Appearance

Shui Bing'er is a striking young woman with snow-white skin, ice-blue eyes, and an aloof, ethereal presence. She is frequently seen in Skywater Academy's blue-and-white uniform or water-blue combat clothing. 374 713 730

• Ice-blue eyes described as carrying a millennia-old chill. 374
• Wears elegant blue-and-white Skywater Academy uniforms. 374
• Has long water-blue hair, described as cascading like a waterfall. 679
• Her Ice Phoenix Martial Soul manifests with crystalline wings and intense Cold Qi. 718 730
• Nineteen years old. 767 787
• Her ice-blue Soul Power and refined Ice Phoenix aura lower the surrounding temperature even without a Martial Soul manifestation. 724
• Wears a water-blue fitted combat outfit with a silver belt and her hair tied high when preparing for battle. 730
• After her solo training journey, she carries herself like a drawn blade and wears a short sword at her waist. 793
• After refining the Ice Phoenix Hairpin, her Ice Phoenix's eyes become golden and several long golden feathers appear among its tail plumage. 765
• Uses a strip of black cloth over her eyes to reduce the glare of the snow during the skiing excursion. 962

Personality

Shui Bing'er is calm, intelligent, and notably composed under pressure. When her teammates react angrily after she collides with Xiao Yun, she stops them, accepts responsibility, and apologizes directly. Her interest in knowledge leads her to seek Xiao Yun's guidance on his theories rather than relying solely on her status as Skywater's captain. 374

She is decisive when Skywater Academy's future is at stake. Despite opposition from her teammates, she insists on pursuing a master-disciple relationship with Xiao Yun because she believes it can protect the academy. 375 She is also perceptive in political and interpersonal matters, arranging for Skywater Academy to avoid fighting Xiao Yun's team immediately after joining his sect. 381

Her courtesy extends to people serving the Shui family. At Supreme Water Delicacy, she thanks Aunt Shui for arranging the team's meals and expresses concern that their frequent visits might interfere with the restaurant's business. 375

Her later journey without Soul Power or Martial Soul support broadens her perspective. After confronting ordinary people, danger, and deception firsthand, she becomes less self-centered and more aware of the complexity of human motives. 793

Shui Bing'er is protective of her companions and resolute against disrespect. She remains composed when confronted by the Earth Berserk Bear Soul King and Yan Lie, defeating both through calculated tactics rather than anger. 689 694

She recognizes Yan Lie's attempt to exhaust her Soul Power through repeated attacks and retreats, understanding that prolonging the duel would undermine the Four Great Academies' remaining chances. Rather than persisting blindly, she seeks Xiao Yun's approval and uses Chi Xiao's assistance to end the fight decisively. 694

She also shows a gentler, nurturing side toward newcomers, taking the initiative to include Tian Meng in human meals, games, and group activities. 866

Although usually reserved, she displays vulnerability and attachment toward Xiao Yun. She waits for his return at Icefield Town and later cries silently against his chest after his nearly month-long absence from Gengxin City. She also candidly admits that she and Zhu Zhuqing worry he will attract additional women while conducting business. 749 799 860

Her rapid progress in skiing further demonstrates her discipline, courage, and natural affinity for ice-and-snow environments. Rather than remaining on safe terrain, she steadily advances from flat ground to gentle and steep slopes under Xiao Yun's instruction. 962

She feels guilty that Martial Soul Hall's pressure delayed the academy's response. On arrival, she identifies the direction of the Shui ancestral residence when Xiao Yun senses the ongoing siege. 704 706

She accompanies Xiao Yun on visits to the Xue and She families, announces his arrival as Earl Longteng, and understands his decision to monitor the She Family through a Puppet Thread. The following morning, she walks with him to the abandoned City Lord's Mansion. 711 712 713

Extreme North Rescue

When Shui Yuntian becomes trapped near Extreme Cold Snow Peak, Shui Bing'er travels with Xiao Yun into the Extreme North Ice Plains.

She persuades Tian Meng to accompany them outside the garden for dinner, helping introduce her to human food, shared accommodation, and mahjong. 866

Later Cultivation

She refines the Ice Phoenix Hairpin, which integrates into her Martial Soul and gives the Ice Phoenix distinct golden eyes and tail feathers. 765
