Background

Ying Huanhuan is Ying Xuanzi’s younger daughter and the younger sister of Ying Xiaoxiao, the Heaven Hall’s Senior Disciple Sister. As the Dao Sect Sect Master’s daughter, she grows up with abundant resources and considerable freedom; even when she treats cultivation casually, her talent places her among the sect’s leading younger disciples 287 293.

She is the reincarnation of the Ice Master, the strongest of the Eight Ancient Lords. When her past-life power begins awakening, she fears that recovering the Ice Master’s memories may erase the person she is in the present. Lin Changqiang reassures her that awakening memories is not the same as becoming someone else, helping her face the process rather than reject it 377 390.

Appearance

Ying Huanhuan is a tall, slender young woman with a delicate, vivid beauty and an energetic presence. Her usual dark hair is tied in a waist-length ponytail, and she is frequently associated with bright red clothing and the sound of music seemingly surrounding her 287.

• Usually wears a fiery red dress, though she uses more practical cyan-and-white clothing on missions 287 313.
• Has clear, lake-like eyes and a lively, girl-next-door charm 287.
• Her Ice Master state changes her hair, brows, eyelashes, and pupils to icy blue 377.
• In her secluded Ice Master form, she wears white-and-ice-blue clothing and appears markedly colder and more ethereal 511.

Personality

Ying Huanhuan is lively, playful, curious, and easily excited by travel, treasures, and unfamiliar experiences. She is openly averse to tedious cultivation, often stopping once she has reached the goals set by her family, yet she becomes serious when those close to her are threatened or when her Ice Master identity forces her to confront larger responsibilities 313 357.

She is competitive and impulsive, particularly where Lin Changqiang is concerned. She initially dismisses his ambition to cultivate the Great Desolation Scripture, wagers against him, and is embarrassed into joining Wild Hall after losing. Her rivalry gradually turns into trust, affection, and a willingness to rely on him in dangerous situations 293 336 397.

Despite her spoiled upbringing, she is compassionate and protective. She quickly grows attached to Mu Lingshan, worries deeply about the Demonfiend crisis, and is willing to make sacrifices for Lin Changqiang and the wider world 411 522 531.

Abilities & Skills

Guqin Techniques

Ying Huanhuan fights through a manifested cyan guqin and sound-based techniques.

• The Ice Master is regarded as the strongest among the Eight Ancient Lords 377.
• Her ice energy can form barriers against the lightning of the Heavenly Thunder Sea Region 424.
• She contributes her freezing energy to the formation that opens the Ancestral Palace, integrating it with the powers of the other Ancient Lords 530.
• Moonlight within the Ancestral Palace improves her unstable ice condition and suppresses the physical strain of her awakened power 531.

Yuan Power Combat

Though better known for her guqin, Ying Huanhuan is a capable direct combatant.

• Wields a Yuan Power whip during missions and can attack or restrain opponents from the air 315.
• Possesses a Nirvana Golden Body, allowing her to endure dangerous clashes in battle 330.

Relationships

• Lin Changqiang — Initially rivals after she doubts his ability to cultivate the Great Desolation Scripture. Their wager brings her into Wild Hall, after which he repeatedly protects her, travels with her, and becomes her romantic partner; Ying Xuanzi ultimately gives the relationship his blessing 293 336 397 514.
• Ying Xiaoxiao — Older sister and Heaven Hall Senior Disciple Sister. Xiaoxiao is frequently exasperated by Huanhuan’s impulsiveness but remains protective and supportive of her feelings for Lin Changqiang 293 357 391.
• Ying Xuanzi — Father and Dao Sect Sect Master. He indulges her but worries about her safety, her awakening as the Ice Master, and her relationship with Lin Changqiang 290 377 514.
• Mu Lingshan — Close travelling companion. Huanhuan immediately treats her with warmth and affection, and the two are compared to sisters 411.
• Ling Qingzhu — Initially a source of comparison and rivalry; Huanhuan resolves to surpass her after seeing her connection to Lin Changqiang. The two later discuss Supreme Power together 357 519.
• Flame Lord — One of her former senior brothers from her life as the Ice Master. He returns to guard her before her complete awakening 513.
• Lord of the Primordial World — Another former senior brother. Her warm reunion with him surprises him because of how unlike her former icy demeanor it is 522.
