Background

Jun Ziyi was born into a Jun Family branch disgraced by her parents' corruption. They embezzled family resources and enabled rival descendants to infiltrate the clan; after their crimes were exposed, they were executed while Jun Ziyi was still only one or two years old. Though she bore no responsibility, many relatives treated her as an unwanted remnant of that scandal. 1753

Her elder brother Jun Zi Mo took responsibility for her upbringing. He cultivated through dangerous trials and regularly gave her a share of the resources he earned from the family, allowing her to continue cultivating despite her low standing. 1753

Her circumstances changed after she began studying under Lu Feng. Her improved strength, performance during the Five Elements Sect incident, acquisition of the Night Feather Sword, and subsequent commercial agreements made her useful enough for the Jun Family to value and protect more openly. 774 1548

Appearance

Jun Ziyi is described as slender and petite. Her appearance and bearing initially suggest a sheltered young miss of a major clan, though prolonged combat and training leave visible marks on her hands. 390 1546

• Often carries a longsword, including the Mo Yuan Sword and later the Night Feather Sword. 1473 1711
• Has used a wooden sword made from Strange Fate Wood in combat. 568
• Her hand bears repeated torn-and-healed wounds from intensive sword practice. 1546

Personality

Jun Ziyi is lively, proud, competitive, and prone to acting spoiled around Lu Feng. She seeks praise after victories, challenges training records, and reacts intensely whenever the Night Feather Sword Master is mentioned. 1253 1467 1499

She is also stubbornly loyal. Although Qi Wansu offers to teach her Night Feather Swordplay if she changes masters, Jun Ziyi refuses to abandon Lu Feng even for the chance to learn the sword art she admires most. 1040

Her experiences gradually make her more self-reliant. Rather than displaying her injuries or demanding comfort as she once would have, she hides the damage to her hands and resolves not to become a burden to her mentor. 1546

Behind her impulsive manner, Jun Ziyi has developed considerable political instinct. She can shift from an innocent, playful facade to a cold and calculating negotiator when pursuing Jun Family interests or protecting her own position. 959 1705

Abilities & Skills

Swordsmanship

Jun Ziyi specializes in adaptable swordplay rather than sheer force. Her sword path includes the Jun Family's Chaotic Sword, whose changing forms and seamless transitions were recognized by the Spirit Void Sword Saint. 1427

• Qing Tian Raindrop Swordplay — Uses rain-like, continuous attacks; she later employs its opening stance to force Xu Jiaoer away from Lu Feng. 1232
• Nearing Immortality Nine Forms — Her most effective restraint against Xu Jiaoer; Lu Feng repeatedly guides her in its practical use. 1228
• Flying Spring Jade Echo Thirteen Forms — Her exclusive secret art, which Lu Feng reproduces through an array after observing her swordplay. 1209
• Three Yuan Qi Sword — Used with Lu Feng's guidance to inflict a fatal Soul Attack on Xu Jiaoer. 1232
• Night Feather Swordplay — Granted permission to learn after proving her loyalty; Qi Wansu later identifies flaws in her execution. 1040 1238
• Heart Piercing Swordplay counter-training — Learns to recognize meridians and acupoints, reducing her reaction delay through repeated practice; her physical control remains a limiting factor. 2171

Tactical Adaptability

Jun Ziyi adjusts quickly when opponents disrupt her preferred sword path.

• Replaced her broken soul-artifact sword with a Strange Fate Wood sword, preventing Apricot Blossom Rain's Gold-Eating Insect from consuming it. 568
• Redirected Apricot Blossom Rain's attacks toward the insect rather than meeting her sword directly. 568
• Used the Thousand Feather Fan and provocation to create an opportunity while her acupoints were sealed during captivity. 1108
• Fought defensively and waited through Jiang Yingyu's repeated false openings rather than rushing into his trap. 1473

Puppet Control

Jun Ziyi can control Little Puppets with precise spiritual-energy coordination. In training, she deceived Man Zhongli with a planned sword throw before executing Nearing Immortality Nine Forms—Emperor Falls to the Mortal Realm through her puppet. 24

Negotiation and Factional Strategy

After obtaining the Night Feather Sword, Jun Ziyi begins using her new status to build influence beyond the Jun Family.

• Pressured Ring Sword Manor over its attempted seizure of the Night Feather Sword. 959
• Used the conflict between Ring Sword Manor and the Heavenly Thunder Sword Sect to sow discord between them. 959
• Planned to sell one thousand Heaven-grade treasured swords within a month, offering supporters thirty percent of the resulting resources. 959
• Sought alliances among the Su, Qi, and Heaven Night Sword Sect families. 1725
• Manipulated Qin Tianliang into surrendering multiple treasures and providing information about the assassination attempt on Jun Zi Shuo. 1705

Equipment / Weapons / Items

• Night Feather Sword — The treasured sword Jun Ziyi successfully obtains, establishing her as the new Night Feather Sword Master. 235 959
• Mo Yuan Sword — Her sword during the duel with Jiang Yingyu; its sharpness supports her defense against a stronger opponent. 1473
• Heavenly Curtain Rainbow Skirt — A heaven-grade treasure item disguised as an outer garment; forms a massive light curtain that traps the Water-Wither Beast and blocks its retreat. 135
• Strange Fate Wood Sword — Wooden sword immune to the Gold-Eating Insect's consumption. 568
• Plain Heart Ring — Increases spiritual-energy recovery; its duration depends on Jun Ziyi's cultivation. 505
• Zhai Xin Ring — Allows her to sense nearby companions through a spiritual-energy connection. 1108
• Thousand Feather Fan — One of several treasures she obtained from Qin Tianliang; used while attempting to create an opening during her capture. 1108
• Array-material Storage Ring — Contains a large collection of array materials ranging from Five Elements Grade to Heaven Grade, though Jun Ziyi herself is not an array master. 1185

Relationships

• Lu Feng — Her mentor and the person she trusts most in battle. She refuses to change masters for Night Feather Swordplay and later saves him from Xu Jiaoer. 1040 1232
• Jun Zi Mo — Elder brother and childhood protector who shared his cultivation resources with her; his condition motivates Jun Ziyi to seek Lu Feng's help. 1753 1546
• Jun Ziya — Elder sister. Jun Ziya's resentment over their parents' crimes contributes to Jun Ziyi's poor treatment within the family. 1652 1753
• Jun Zi Shuo — Elder brother with a complicated, often distant relationship with Jun Ziyi; he later allows her to represent his interests in dealings with the Qin Family. 390 1740
• Li Jianxin — Her “Ninth Grandfather” and formally assigned guard after her rise in status. 774 1546
• Qi Wansu — Sword attendant of the Night Feather Sword Master who tests Jun Ziyi's loyalty, grants her access to Night Feather Swordplay, and corrects her technique. 1040 1238
• Yin Xiaolou — Heaven Night Sword Sect ally who assists Jun Ziyi's sword-distribution scheme and letter deliveries. 959
• Luo Xiaoxi — Close friend with a teasing, sisterly rapport. 1802
• Apricot Blossom Rain — Swordsmanship rival whose Gold-Eating Insect forces Jun Ziyi to adapt her weapon and tactics. 568
• Jiang Yingyu — Opponent who comes to respect Jun Ziyi after their duel. 1473

Major Arcs

Training Under Lu Feng

Jun Ziyi trains alongside Lu Feng's other students in puppet control, swordplay, cultivation, and practical combat. Though initially reliant on sophisticated techniques without fully understanding how to apply them, she gradually learns to read opponents, exploit weapon weaknesses, and fight with greater discipline. 24 497 1228

Night Feather Sword Succession

Driven by her admiration for the Night Feather Sword Master, Jun Ziyi insists on attempting the Sword Intent trial despite ridicule from stronger cultivators. She ultimately obtains the Night Feather Sword, gaining recognition from the Heaven Night Sword Sect and a dramatically improved position within the Jun Family. 235 304 774

Captivity and Rescue

Four Earth Soul Realm cultivators capture Jun Ziyi, seal her acupoints, and intend to use her as bait against Benevolent Heart Academy. She remains openly defiant, identifies every captor by name, recognizes Lu Feng's rescue signal through her Zhai Xin Ring, and attempts to create an opening rather than submit. 1108

Growth as a Swordswoman

Jun Ziyi protects Lu Feng from Xu Jiaoer and uses Three Yuan Qi Sword to defeat their enemy. She later faces stronger swordsmen in tournament matches, demonstrating a more patient and mature style despite fighting above her cultivation level. 1232 1473

Rise Within the Jun Family

With the Night Feather Sword and her sword-distribution agreements, Jun Ziyi turns commercial influence into personal protection. She seeks to make herself important enough that Jun Zi Shuo and Jun Ziya must consider the consequences before moving against her. 959

Notable Quotes

“If you have the guts, kill me. Otherwise, once I get out, I'll kill every last one of you!” 1108

“I had to grow up eventually. I can't rely on Master for my whole life, can I?” 1546

Trivia

• Jun Ziyi dislikes writing because Lu Feng once made her write extensively in Spirit Prison; she used a sword as a pen. 1467
• She became so excited by the arrival of the Night Feather Sword Master's attendant that she nearly fainted. 1253
• She considers the Night Feather Sword Master her unreachable ideal and initially becomes angry when Lu Feng claims that title for himself. 1498
