Background

Murong Xue originated from a collateral branch of the Profound Spirit Dynasty’s royal family. After her Earth-grade Spiritual Vein was discovered, the royal family brought her into its direct lineage, invested heavily in her cultivation, and granted her the title of County Princess. 9 15

Her Earth Vein aptitude made her the standout candidate in the Five Mountains Sect’s Imperial City selection. She entered at Body Tempering Muscle Perfection, led the candidates against the Swift Monkey pack, claimed five Spiritual Fruits, and finished first overall. 11 14

Upon reaching the Five Mountains Sect, an Elder removed her from the ordinary intake group for separate Earth Vein arrangements. 18

Appearance

Murong Xue is a young woman noted for her bright eyes, pearly teeth, and an elegant, slender neck. 15 22

• Often wears a snow-white dress with embroidered patterns when appearing in formal settings. 17
• Wears a black combat suit during the Datong Dynasty campaign. 44
• Has almond-shaped eyes and small tiger teeth visible when she smiles. 44
• Her ears and neck flush noticeably when embarrassed. 22 25 27

Personality

Murong Xue is proud of both her royal status and exceptional Earth Vein talent. She respects strength and shows warmth chiefly toward people who demonstrate potential, such as the top-ranked disciples from the sect selection. 17

She is intensely competitive, direct, and quick to fight. During the selection, she invited Zeng Fan and Yuan Jin to attack her together, then continued beating Yuan Jin after he surrendered because she had “not had enough.” 13 Her temperament is recognized as impatient and in need of tempering even by Murong Yunhai. 11

Despite her aggression, Murong Xue is protective and loyal toward her companions. She intervenes against Zhou Bao for threatening Zeng Fan, helps Zeng Fan train with the Jade Spirit Flood Dragon, and waits for him after the Quenching Body Pool trial. 22 23 28 29 She also displays a mischievous sense of humor, particularly when teasing Zeng Fan or using Wang Beichen as the group’s designated shield. 22 47

• Promised the Flood Dragon additional elixirs in exchange for serving as Zeng Fan’s sparring partner. 23

Equipment / Items

• Yuan Jin — Fellow selection finalist and recurring sparring partner. She decisively defeated and punished him after their selection match, though they later interact amicably. 13 17
• Wang Beichen — Self-appointed younger-brother figure. After Murong Xue beat him for provoking her, he became attached to her and calls her “Big Sister.” 28
• Murong Yunhai — Fellow member of the Profound Spirit Dynasty’s royal family; he brought her into the direct lineage and elevated her to County Princess after her Earth Vein was discovered. 11 15
• Jade Spirit Flood Dragon — Sect spirit beast she feeds; she uses her relationship with it to facilitate Zeng Fan’s training. 22 24
