Background and History
Han Feng was Yao Chen's prized disciple and a subject of his alchemical experiments. When Yao Chen obtained Fentian Jue, a technique that could evolve by devouring Mysterious Flames, he had Han Feng test it first. Han Feng successfully absorbed the Sea Heart Flame and a child flame of the Three Thousand Burning Flame. Fearing that Yao Chen would extract the Sea Heart Flame from him—a process that would kill him—Han Feng allied with the Soul Hall and helped ambush his master. Yao Chen survived as a Soul Body, while Han Feng was later assigned to the northwestern continent 72.
In the Black Corner Region, Han Feng became Maple City's master and sought to raise his alchemy to Rank 7. He secretly held Ling Xi, a Spirit Clan remnant, hoping to use Soul Crystals made from her to advance his soul. After her disappearance, he blamed the Eight Fan Sect, but ultimately let the dispute drop. He then turned his attention to the Mysterious Flame he suspected Jia Nan Academy possessed 72.
Han Feng initially pursued Ling Li over Ling Xi's death. The two later developed a precarious friendship: Han Feng frequently hired Ling Li to obtain rare medicinal ingredients, while also remaining wary of his growing strength. Han Feng began assembling the Black Alliance to challenge Jia Nan Academy and expand his influence across the Black Corner Region 73 90 97.
He eventually led a coalition into Jia Nan Academy to seize the Falling Heart Flame, but the academy's defenders stalled his forces 171 172. Later, fearing Ling Li, Han Feng fled Maple City and paid Earth Demon Old Ghost and Mo Tianxing to guard him at Magic Flame Valley. Ling Li killed Earth Demon Old Ghost and confronted Han Feng, who begged to be spared. Ling Li instead gave Yao Chen the means to enter Han Feng's body and control his soul 204 205 206 209.
Appearance
Han Feng is described as a handsome man with long black hair and a composed, approachable bearing 97.
Personality
Han Feng is competitive and jealous, but skilled at maintaining useful relationships. He can set aside anger and behave cordially toward someone he recently fought, as he does with Ling Li. His agreeable manner does not make his alliances secure: Ling Li regards their friendship as dependent on his continued value to Han Feng 97.
His pursuit of strength drives him toward dangerous shortcuts and experiments on living subjects. Despite his ambitions, he is alert to threats; when he believes Ling Li may come for him, he abandons Maple City and arranges substantial protection rather than trusting his own rank or reputation 97 101 163 204.
