Fairy Presenting Flowers, situated diagonally opposite Yubi Peak, is also a famous scenic spot in Tianzi Mountain. Look, the stone peak standing on the distant hillside looks like a young lady holding a basket of flower in her hand. She is looking up as if waiting for the return of her loved ones. This scenic spot is called the Fairy Presenting Flowers.

According to legend, this young lady was named Zhang Muying, a fairy-like girl who was the second daughter of a local wealthy man on Tianzi Mountainous area. She grew up with Xiang Dakun from a young age, and they had an early relationship and promised each other for life.

One day, Xiang Dakun led his troops in a distant battle. It was a long time since Xiang Dakun had triumphantly returned. Zhang Muying was about to go and inquire about the news. She disguised herself as a peasant woman to carry a flower basket, and when she walked up this mountain slope, she unexpectedly lost the battle at Baizhang Gorge. Finally, she had been transformed into a stone peak standing on this mountain slope since that time.
