Physical Description

He can appear exceptionally refined, especially when dressed formally 268 154 2304. His natural complexion can sometimes appear pale 1724 404. He has the ability to change his facial features rapidly, often to imitate others with high accuracy 159. He has also been observed with a hairless head 2494.

• Skin: His skin can appear cotton white 2212 or pale 1724. He can also sprout hard black hairs, making him appear like a "hairy humanoid beast" with knotted muscles 378. His skin can also grow crystal-like scales that resemble embedded diamonds and show distorted human face outlines 935.
• Clothing/Armor: He frequently wears a gray trench coat, sometimes with wide robe sleeves 268 894. He can also appear in a suit and leather shoes 154.

Character Background

Fu Qian's background is characterized by a mysterious past, a pragmatic approach to life, and a complex relationship with his identity. He has demonstrated the ability to change his appearance, using disguises to infiltrate organizations or evade suspicion, such as when he posed as Old Man Lu Ming or infiltrated the Sword Participation Institute 159 268. His true identity is often obscured, and he has even used the name "Great Fortune Ming King" 911. He is an "exploration-type player" with a habit of clearing side quests 835.

Key events have shaped his character, including his involvement in the "Fourth Floor Flying Corpse Incident" 20 and his first mission where he encountered an assassin whose kidneys were removed 2111. He has a unique perspective on family, noting that his own father "wasn't just one person's good father" and that he and Xixi share the commonality of having lost their parents 1720. He also once claimed to be Ji Liushuang's father, manipulating her emotions 159. Fu Qian has a connection to the Academy of Revelation, where he holds a mentor card 156, has a laboratory 1038 1618, and has plans for research involving cultivation, bloodline, and Divinity 2309. He has also been involved in the "Ian incident" 1038 and has a history of interacting with powerful figures like Li Weixuan, whom he challenged using a sword technique inspired by Old Master Li He 1618. Despite his often serious endeavors, he maintains a laid-back attitude, enjoying leisure time and demonstrating adaptability 53.

He was initially a physically slight man, but the irreversible fusion of Thug drastically altered his physique and gave him robust strength 13. He subsequently became a tenured professor at Tianqi, though his frequent absences are publicly explained as scientific expeditions 1492. As an instructor, he has guided Ji Liushuang and Liu Shuang, while allowing the latter to use his laboratory for practice and research 1126 1492.
