Wang Xuan

Biodata

Background

Wang Xuan serves as the Great Xia Dynasty's Imperial Astronomer, recording entries in a bamboo book at the Sky Observation Bureau. He has previously fought the paper-people faction in the True Immortal Realm, killing an entire boatload of its members; their blood sacrifice of a grotto-heaven for fragments of the Old Saint Decree leaves him openly hostile toward them. 72 74

Using the name Qin Cheng, Wang Xuan enters a sealed space in the higher spiritual world and reunites with An Hong, Hong Teng, Qi Miao, and Yan Que. He learns that they are immortals and twice-limit-breaking prodigies of the Pingtian Star Domain who have remained in the present world. 76 84

The group shares ambitions involving the Old Saint Decree fragments and the construction of an immortal path. Wang Xuan joins their discussions while navigating the distrust created by his reputation as a troublemaking newcomer. 81 106 110
