Background / History

Tian Fang was raised by the Matchmaker Old Man, who regarded her as both a disciple and a daughter. As the sole surviving Zheng Ning, she carried the responsibility of preserving her bloodline, though she initially rejected the idea that this required her to seek a Dao Companion or bear descendants 833 868.

At the Matchmaker Old Man's instruction, Tian Fang began eliminating powerful Demon Race sect leaders and Great Demons. Within three months, she had traveled across the Demon Race World, killing Great Demons from the Nascent Soul and Jade Purity Realms; she treated weaker Demon Cores as snacks and brewed wine with stronger ones 430 462.

During this period, she took in Kan, an ordinary Civet Cat Demon child who refused to leave her side. Tian Fang protected Kan while facing the Jade Purity Realm Pale Thunder Wolf, ultimately killing the regional overlord after a three-day battle 461.

Appearance

Tian Fang's male disguise concealed a striking female form with an exotic, aristocratic beauty. She has exceptionally fair skin, dark-brown eyes, slightly curled long hair, and a distinctly Western-Regions-like appearance 810.

• Revealed her female identity during the siege of Ten Thousand Mile City 534.
• Possesses six visible tails in battle; their wounds regenerate rapidly 536.
• Often fights in long skirts, with lightning and Eight Desolations Power manifesting around her steps 534.
• Keeps a Skirt-Pressing Knife tied to her thigh beneath her skirt 868.

Personality

Tian Fang is proud, blunt, and intensely competitive. She dismisses opponents she considers weak, threatens those who waste her time, and pursues strength as a matter of personal pride as well as Demon Race supremacy 502 536. Her reputation for ruthlessness was built on her willingness to kill powerful demons for cultivation resources and training 462.

Beneath that severity, she is protective toward people she accepts. She provides Kan with food, shelter, and safety, and later offers Shu Lu help retrieving the Sage Jade simply because she considers her sensible and trustworthy 461 845. Her attachment to Jiang Lin initially manifests as anger, possessiveness, and a determination to kill him; over time, she becomes visibly anxious over his safety and unable to follow through when given opportunities to harm him 512 525.

Story Role / Major Arcs

Rise in the Demon Race World

Tian Fang established her legend by hunting Great Demons across the Demon Race World, defeating the Pale Thunder Wolf, and turning powerful Demon Cores into wine. Her exploits led demons to compare her directly with Jiang Lin as the greatest young talent of their respective worlds 461 462.

Dream-Eating Palace

Traveling as “Zheng” with Kan, Tian Fang entered Dream City seeking the Moon Spring and later joined Jiang Lin and Zhen Xian in the rush for the Heavenly Pool. She fought alongside them against cultivators and mythical beasts, while Jiang Lin's unexpectedly formidable swordsmanship led her to question his true identity 466 478 479.

Exquisite Sword Pavilion

After realizing Jiang Dapao had likely deceived her, Tian Fang searched the Sword Pavilion floor by floor intending to kill him. When she finally found Jiang Lin unconscious, she bound him and nearly executed him, but hesitated at the decisive moment 509 512. Their forced cooperation inside the Sword Cave, including Jiang Lin protecting her from the lake-water women, transformed her anger into conflicted affection 514 515 525.

Siege of Ten Thousand Mile City

Tian Fang led the Demon Race assault on Ten Thousand Mile City and openly revealed her female identity to the Demon Army. She overwhelmed defenders, fought Chen Jia and Lin Qingwan, and declared Jiang Lin to be her possession 534 536. Later, when Jiang Lin completed Dao Unification amid the battlefield, Tian Fang claimed him before the surrounding Demon Race cultivators and refused to let anyone kill him 836.

Marriage and the Abyss of the South Sea

The Matchmaker Old Man arranged for Tian Fang to marry Jiang Lin if he survived Dao Unification, a prospect that initially left her stunned 833. Their relationship eventually became an acknowledged marriage, with Tian Fang revealing her true name and placing complete trust in him 873 931. When Jiang Lin disappeared while exploring the Abyss of the South Sea, she joined the expedition to find him and fought her way into the depths rather than wait for news 944.
