While the master knows some immortal fairies, they are not limited to terrifying punishments like the Nine Layers of Ice and Fire. Take, for instance, the fairy sister who excels in time acceleration, offering thousands of experiences per second, far more terrifying than the Nine Layers of Ice and Fire.
Then there’s the fairy who controls the law of thunder, infusing it with heavenly tribulations. Each time feels like undergoing a trial.
Besides these, there are all sorts of bizarre games described in the book, all tracing back to the soul-touching technique invented by the Empress of Harmony, which started it all.
“Ah! Don’t worry! The sisters know what they’re doing and will ensure your master doesn’t face any life-threatening dangers.” The distant Ice Lotus Fairy appeared beside Luo Bingli, offering reassurance.
“That’s right! Don’t worry! The sisters have it under control and won’t let your master die so easily… Cough, cough, I mean, they’ll let your master experience the ultimate joy of enlightenment.” The nearby Glass Fairy chimed in, but clearly slipped up mid-sentence.
“Th-this… I see. Then I’ll leave my master in your capable hands, sisters.” Luo Bingli’s legs trembled slightly at these words. She suppressed her fear and quickly left, afraid that her master’s loose tongue might get her trapped there, experiencing the Nine Layers of Ice and Fire or a thousand experiences per second.
Though in the plot, especially the grand finale, her body endures even more horrifying tortures, Luo Bingli didn’t want to experience these things for real.
“Rest assured! We’ll take good care of your master for a week.”
“Exactly, come back in a week to collect your master’s remains… or rather, tidy up. You should know about these things since you’ve been with Bai Ruxue.” The Glass Fairy winked at Luo Bingli, implying a shared understanding.
“Ah… y-yes…” Luo Bingli nodded nervously and left the Peak of Hundred Flowers in a daze.
As Luo Bingli departed, the previously amiable pair turned serious.
Ice Lotus Fairy pondered, then spoke uncertainly: “It’s said that the Empress of Harmony has a unique gift: the more beautiful the fairy, the more naturally they take to her. Maybe this child’s dress, a replica of the Empress’s Thousand-Colored Immortal Robe, suggests a connection to the Empress of Harmony from tens of thousands of years ago?”
“Hmm…” Glass Fairy found some logic in Ice Lotus Fairy’s words but felt it was a bit far-fetched.
“Think about it, we have no relation to Luo Bingli, yet from the moment we saw her, we felt an instant bond, like she was our little sister. It’s as if she’s someone incredibly important to us, our closest kin. This matches the Empress of Harmony’s gift exactly.”
Glass Fairy nodded in agreement: “You might be right. With Luo Bingli wearing the Empress’s Thousand-Colored Immortal Robe, she’s like the Empress herself. Maybe Luo Bingli is truly the Empress’s descendant?”
“I remember Liu Ruyan, that bimbo, once ventured into the forbidden lands and returned unscathed. What if…”
“It’s possible. Who knows if the Empress of Harmony is really dead?”
“Hmph, why don’t we just ask Liu Ruyan? She should be awake by now.”
“You’re right…”
With that, the two fairies extended their tendrils, one radiating endless heat, the other icy cold.

Looking back at the seemingly calm Peak of Hundred Flowers, Luo Bingli shivered and hurried to Wang Qiu’er’s residence.
Perhaps sensing Luo Bingli’s impending visit, Wang Qiu’er was already prepared to leave at a moment’s notice when Luo Bingli arrived.
On seeing Luo Bingli, Wang Qiu’er fawned over her: “Saintess, why did you come here personally? I’ve been waiting for your summons. How was your sleep last night? Did you… with White Sister?”
Luo Bingli didn’t respond, merely extending her fair hand to gently tap Wang Qiu’er’s head.
“Ow! Saintess, what was that for?~”
“Enough chatter. I’m here to ask about the girl named Ye Xiaozi from yesterday. Do you have any information on her?”
Wang Qiu’er nodded: “Saintess, I do. It’s Ye Qingzi, the one everyone calls Ye Xiaozi! It’s strange, she’s not even that pretty, not as pretty as me, yet she dares to use that name.”
“Ye Qingzi?” Luo Bingli suddenly recalled the girl she had saved during the bullying incident at the Hundred Flowers Palace. Though Luo Bingli usually ignored such incidents, seeing that figure desperately protecting something, she intervened and saved Ye Xiaozi. Could that have been their fateful encounter?
Wait, if that’s the case, why didn’t the system notify me of completing the task when I kissed Bai Ruxue? Could it be because I saved Ye Xiaozi, causing her inner conflict and delaying the task completion? And afterward, the task completed because she understood?
Seeing the saintess’s grim expression, though her beauty and figure remained unchanged, her aura made Wang Qiu’er uneasy. Straightening her attire, Wang Qiu’er cautiously asked: “Saintess, is something troubling you?”
“Troubling… yes, it is. But…” Luo Bingli’s gaze shifted to the girl before her, remembering that Wang Qiu’er was known for bullying others. Perhaps she could learn a thing or two from her!
With that thought, Luo Bingli’s expression softened, and she instructed Wang Qiu’er: “Autumn, gather information on Ye Qingzi and devise a plan to suppress her.”
