Background / History
Zhu Zhuyun is the Nether Duke’s eldest legitimate daughter. Her engagement to Dai Weisi, the Star Luo imperial family’s eldest legitimate son, strengthens the alliance between the Zhu and Dai families. Emperor Dai Tian provided a rare, 44,444-year-old life-attribute right leg Soul Bone as her betrothal gift 25.
After Dai Mubai fled the empire, his nominal fiancée, Zhu Zhuqing, lost their father’s favor. Zhu Zhuyun subjected her younger sister to years of suppression while the Nether Duke declined to intervene. Resenting this treatment and their father’s favoritism, Zhu Zhuqing secretly stole the betrothal Soul Bone before fleeing 25 27.
Zhu Zhuyun also offered Zhu Zhuqing a conditional means of survival: becoming Dai Weisi’s concubine and sharing a husband with her. Zhu Zhuqing rejected that prospect 27 31.
Appearance
- Black hair worn swept up high 21.
- Facial features described as approximately seventy percent similar to Zhu Zhuqing’s 21.
- A mature, seductive bearing and voluptuous figure, contrasting with her younger sister’s youthful appearance 21 22.
Personality
Zhu Zhuyun combines genuine mistreatment of her sister with concealed efforts to keep her alive. Although she had oppressed Zhu Zhuqing at home, her pursuit outside the empire is deliberately restrained: her subordinates guide Zhu Zhuqing away from dangerous territory rather than kill her 21 25.
She is manipulative and willing to endanger unrelated people to maintain appearances. Spotting Li Wuyou, she falsely calls him Zhu Zhuqing’s lover to create an excuse to redirect the pursuit. When he challenges her, she orders his death. Her confidence collapses when he reveals four black Ten Thousand Year Soul Rings and attacks her directly 22 24.

Story Role / Major Arcs
Staged Pursuit in the Star Dou Great Forest
Zhu Zhuyun oversees eight Soul Ancestors attacking Zhu Zhuqing near the forest’s outskirts. Despite their overwhelming advantage, they hold back and steer her toward a safe exit. Watching from hiding, Li Wuyou recognizes that the pursuit is staged and that Zhu Zhuyun does not truly intend to kill her sister 21 22.
When Li Wuyou prepares to leave, Zhu Zhuyun accuses him of being Zhu Zhuqing’s lover. Her attackers immediately abandon Zhu Zhuqing and surround him instead. Zhu Zhuqing protests his involvement, but Zhu Zhuyun orders her subordinates to kill him 22.
Escape and Payment for Her Life
Li Wuyou kills the eight Soul Ancestors and attacks Zhu Zhuyun. One Soul King takes the fatal blow in her place while the other flies her more than ten thousand meters away. Li Wuyou decides to pursue rather than leave a potential future enemy alive 24.
Having finally understood her sister’s restraint, Zhu Zhuqing kneels and offers the stolen Soul Bone to stop him. Li Wuyou initially demands further compensation, but ultimately counts the bone as payment for Zhu Zhuyun’s life and imposes a separate monetary ransom on Zhu Zhuqing. He does not resume the pursuit 24 25 26 27.
