Background / History

Young Master Jun is the second young master of a declining noble family. Though he claims to lack backing, he repeatedly relies on his family’s ancestral prestige and clings to the dignity attached to his status. The Jun family is described as outwardly imposing but internally weakened, with its ideals of benevolence, righteousness, honor, and ritual compromised by petty schemes. 1

He entered the Jianghu alongside Lu Chen and Nantian Yijian, relying on an expert’s assistance as the three traveled through the Jianghai Region. After Lu Chen left the Jianghu, Young Master Jun returned to his identity as the Jun family’s second young master. 1

At a later point, he sets aside his pride and resolves to restore his ancestors’ glory through basic spear techniques and by re-establishing benevolence, righteousness, honor, and ritual. He follows the path of his uncle Jun Wudi, intending to sweep across twelve continents with a single spear. 1

While traveling back toward Fengtian Prefecture with Uncle Zhong, Jun is ambushed by cultivators acting on warrants issued by his elder brother. His identity fails to intimidate them because they are specifically seeking him for the reward. Lu Chen and Nantian Yijian rescue the pair. 14

Personality

Young Master Jun is proud of his noble identity and highly conscious of the respect it commands, even when he understands that others defer to him chiefly because he is the Jun family’s second young master. 1

He is competitive and eager to prove himself, readily sparring with Lu Chen and repeatedly pursuing beast-hunting contests after their first match ends without a winner. 16 17

Despite his pride, he is grateful and loyal toward those who aid him. He brings Lu Chen and Nantian Yijian into the Fengtian Prefecture camp as friends and calls them brothers after they save him. 15

He deeply respects Jun Wudi and has wanted to become like his uncle since childhood. 15
