Background / History
Meng Hongchen is Jing Hongchen’s granddaughter and Xiao Hongchen’s younger sister. As members of the Hongchen family, the siblings receive exceptional access within Mingde Hall; she later joins Su Yu and Xiao Hongchen in the sole group personally supervised by Jing Hongchen. 61 274
She first meets Su Yu when Xiao Hongchen accuses him of being suspicious and potentially hostile. Meng immediately intervenes to prevent her brother from bullying a new junior, insisting that Su Yu appears to be a good person—primarily because she finds him handsome. 61
Her initial admiration develops into an open romantic relationship with Su Yu. By the time of their reunion at Shrek Academy, they greet one another affectionately and are described as deeply in love; Meng later identifies herself as Su Yu’s official girlfriend in a confrontation with Wang Dong’er. 312 329
Following Mingde Hall’s political and financial collapse, Meng’s concern centers on the safety of her grandfather and the people close to her. Jing Hongchen ultimately joins Holy Slaying Palace partly out of concern for her future, while Meng is relieved by both his survival and Su Yu’s safe return. 593 614
Appearance
Meng Hongchen is a delicate, sweet-looking young woman with lightly curled wine-red hair and ice-blue eyes. 461
- During Scarlet-Eyed Ice Toad possession, her hair turns snow-white and her eyes become blood-red. 119
- Her exposed skin becomes snowy white and crystal-like while her Martial Soul is active. 119
- Her Rank 6 armor is ice-blue with blue-gold patterns, giving her a valiant, heroic appearance. 170
Personality
Meng is gentle, caring, and strongly protective of her family. She repeatedly mediates between Su Yu and Xiao Hongchen, pleading for Su Yu to spare her brother and rushing to assist Xiao when he is struck by a spiritual attack. 73 74 119
She is openly affectionate toward Su Yu but easily embarrassed when others tease her about him. Her feelings are sincere enough for her to successfully pick the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, and she takes particular pride in his achievements as a Soul Engineer. 113 465 471
Despite her mild disposition, she can be composed, mischievous, and possessive when dealing with rivals for Su Yu’s affection. She asserts her place as Su Yu’s girlfriend to Wang Dong’er and deliberately lets Wang remain unaware that Su Yu likely knows her real gender. 329
Meng does not consider herself an exceptional genius compared to those with Ultimate or Twin Martial Souls, but she accepts her limits without losing heart and cultivates diligently. She is also disciplined around Holy Slaying Palace’s Soul Tool research, refusing to inspect techniques beyond what she is permitted to learn. 499 574
