Background and History
Shi Jiu lived with her maternal grandparents, Ning Chengfeng and Yun Luoyu, from birth. After their deaths, she briefly returned to the Shi Family and met her eight older brothers, but initially treated them with cold indifference. Her mother, Ning Ranxin, had been a gifted prodigy whose talent was gradually taken from her as she bore nine children 632 651.
In the Wilderness Zone, Shi Jiu encountered Jiang Fu while suffering from snake venom. She offered him an Abyss Fruit in exchange for carrying her away; he subsequently fought off a Silver Moon Wolf while protecting her. Jiang Fu later used the fruit to activate his Sequence 19 20 48.
Shi Jiu investigated her mother’s and grandparents’ deaths through the Nether Phoenix Token, but the organization’s previous leader restricted the information available to her. She later learned that the Sequence Research Institute had plotted against her maternal grandparents and that Lingyue Pavilion had persecuted them 606 640.
Appearance
Shi Jiu was once thin, pale and notably expressionless. After spending time with Jiang Fu, she became healthier and more animated, to the point that Shi Wu and Shi Qingluan nearly failed to recognize her 149 366.
- Eyes: Large, bright and black 366.
- Hair: Long enough to wear in a ponytail; spatial power can cast it snowy blue 48 449.
- Clothing: Often seen in a school uniform; she has also worn red hair as part of her pirate disguise 22 284.
Personality
Shi Jiu is fiercely protective of Jiang Fu. After seeing the potential of his multiplying ability, she worried that others would target him and sought stronger ways to conceal it. She also shields him in battle and has refused additional power when she feared losing control could hurt him 95 103 133 169.
She is playful and calculating, readily joining Jiang Fu’s schemes and using deception against their enemies. She once acted pitiful to persuade Shi Wu to help locate a treasure vault, and later provoked Tianhuang Martial Arts University through posts on the Martial Artist Forum 159 180.
Her loyalty to family is complicated. Although she came to accept her brothers, she remained conflicted over Shi Yuehan’s decisions: she believed she would have chosen to save her mother and grandparents, but also understood the cost of allowing Ancient Cold Pass and the university to fall 583 651.
