Background / History

Fang Lingxue was born to Fang Qingmeng, a cleaning lady in the Ji household, and Grandmaster Ji Dingjiang. Though raised with the treatment of a Grandmaster's daughter, she and her mother were disliked by Ji Dingjiang's wife, Yao Yuxi, and his son, Ji Lingyun. Ji Dingjiang kept Lingxue away from martial arts and the Wilderness Walker Company, while increasingly neglecting both mother and daughter. 105 107 201

When Lingxue was fourteen, Fang Qingmeng died after falling from the Ji residence's roof. Ji Lingyun and his friends were implicated in the events surrounding her death; later, Ji Lingyun openly referred to Fang Qingmeng's death with contempt. Ji Dingjiang did not pursue an investigation. Lingxue fled to District 7, the area where her mother had been born, and severed her connection to the Ji family. 105 107 220

In the slums, she met Qin Heng while both were doing odd jobs. Qin Heng helped her with work she struggled to perform, and the two became friends. Ye Jian'an—Ji Dingjiang's confidant, whom Lingxue calls Uncle Ye—later arranged stable employment for her at Frost Snow City after she refused direct financial assistance. 107

Despite earning a comparatively high slum-district salary of 900 yuan per month, Lingxue lived frugally and used much of her income to support Qin Heng's household. She urged him to enroll in a martial hall, giving him the opportunity to pursue the Martial Warrior path. 1 9

Lingxue concealed her Ji-family history because she wanted an ordinary, warm life and feared that revealing her blood feud would push Qin Heng toward a dangerous confrontation with the Ji family. After Qin Heng learned the truth, she explained that her friendship and love had never been motivated by his potential or status. 105 106

Appearance

Lingxue is a petite, fair-skinned young woman noted for her bright eyes, radiant smile, and delicate appearance. Her upbringing in the Ji household is reflected in her refined temperament despite years in the slums. 1 105

• Often described as innocent, lively, cute, and youthful. 1
• Has a distinctive gentle smile that immediately improves Qin Heng's mood. 1 180
• Later trains with a long sword and develops a heroic bearing in combat. 360 439

Personality

Lingxue is caring, self-sacrificing, and emotionally resilient. She endured poverty to support Qin Heng's training, yet consistently redirected his focus toward cultivation and long-term growth rather than immediate romance or comfort. 1 23 52

She initially sought a quiet ordinary life rather than revenge, believing herself incapable of challenging the Ji family. Her hatred for Ji Lingyun and Yao Yuxi remained profound, but after Ji Lingyun's death she became increasingly focused on cultivation rather than vengeance. 106 130 435

Although she often worries over Qin Heng's injuries and dangerous ambitions, she does not try to prevent him from pursuing his path. She instead asks him to return safely and works to narrow the gap between them through her own cultivation. 51 401 793

The Ji Family Secret

Conflict with Ji Lingyun

Lingxue's visible hatred of Ji Lingyun gives Qin Heng's tournament rivalry with him a personal dimension. Qin Heng learns the truth of Fang Qingmeng's death during their final and defeats Ji Lingyun, while promising that Lingxue's grievance remains his own. 200 219 221

Marriage and Family

Qin Heng gives Lingxue a villa, car, and access to his finances before they formally register their marriage. As his cultivation increasingly takes him away from Earth, Lingxue remains his emotional home and prepares for their future family. 284 286 521

Becoming a Martial Warrior

Lingxue begins cultivating to protect herself, extend her lifespan, remain close to Qin Heng, and eventually overcome the barrier that prevented them from having a child.
