Background / History
Yi Xiaofeng entered the cultivation world through reincarnation as Zhang Junyi. He chose the Righteous Path, received quests centered on obtaining the Pure Yang Pill, and began adapting to his new identity and environment 2.
As Zhang Junyi, he studied the Pure Yang Five Swords Technique and relied on deception as much as combat, notably bluffing a hostile strongman by acting like an NPC 6. His past-life memories later surfaced in a dream: Zhang Junyi had left his mountain village to become a knight-errant, suffered imprisonment and the loss of Yang energy at the hands of a demon, and had once briefly met Bai Hongxiao 321.
Bai Hongxiao became Yi’s master and a defining influence on his path. Bai protected him with a seal placed on his sword, sent him to the Demon Realm to seek the Demon Sword, and later taught him the complete World Under Heaven Sword before departing for a duel 46 121 285.
Yi founded the World Under Heaven Swordsman before the Public Beta, intending to recruit talented sword cultivators and establish a powerful organization 156. The group began with figures including Jian Zhen and Sword Ghoul, then expanded into a major force that annexed Dragon City, the Nether Sky Gate, Ghost Gate, and Mystic Saber Gate 170 334 410 443.
Personality
Yi is resourceful, opportunistic, and willing to use manipulation when direct force is unnecessary. He bluffed opponents, obtained the Three Transformations Spell through charm and deception, framed Zhuo Yulang through forged evidence, and routinely turned dangerous situations into advantages 6 129 153.
Despite this pragmatism, he repeatedly protects allies and bystanders. He saved Yang Yu, protected Ji Bu from a stronger cultivator, accepted responsibility for Ji Bu after Ji Guan’s death, and freed players captured by a Demon Cultivator 49 247 248 371.
His Human Dao is rooted in Innate Arrogance: an unwillingness to remain ordinary or accept weakness. Bai Hongxiao distinguished this drive from simple killing intent 380.
