• Her pursuers later conclude that she had a “backup plan” and successfully vanished near Jueyu Pool. 50

Tactical Insight

Story Role / Major Arcs

Intervention in Yunmeng Marsh

Shuobing arrives as Yuanzi attempts to capture Xiao Hua's Nascent Soul after the Roaring Beast incident. Citing her duty as County Governor, she orders Yuanzi to release Xiao Hua and compels him to leave Yunmeng Marsh. She then investigates the Toad Faced Toad's lair, leaves Xiao Hua the Roaring Beast remains, and provides access to the Helan Que Immortal Market. 45

Investigation of the Face-Shifting Toad

After obtaining the Face-Shifting Toad's egg, Shuobing searches Yunmeng Marsh with an Immortal Artifact scanner. The indicated site shows neither immortal techniques nor immortal imprints, leaving her uncertain how to proceed. 47

Ambush and Escape

Three male Immortals trap Shuobing in a Sword Diagram and demand to know why she has come to Helan Que. She withstands their sword techniques with ice arts, breaks through their barriers, and nearly turns the ambush against them. 48

A female Immortal then pierces Shuobing's silver radiance with blood-red light. Shuobing's prepared Nascent Soul and icy wings enable her escape, though she is injured and pursued. 49 50

Jueyu Pool Pursuit

Shuobing's silver light reaches Jueyu Pool and then disappears. Her pursuers search the area using Xuan Kong Incense, clones, and a divination technique that projects blood-bearing creatures within a thousand li. Xiao Hua conceals Shuobing in his spatial dimension, allowing her to evade detection. 50
