Background

Nan Liujing initially believed that his only blood relative was his uncle, Sun Kong. After Leng Yaozhu approached him at Xia Zheng Leng’s request, he learned that Xia Zheng Leng was his maternal grandmother and Qian Gu Qingfeng his maternal grandfather; the pair later became central protectors in his life. 28 43

In Ao Lai City, Nan Liujing recognized that Na’er’s appearance and Tang Wulin’s encounter with her were part of a dangerous arrangement. Despite being warned that intervention could make him a target, he froze the human traffickers with lightning-attributed Soul Power and took Na’er in as his younger sister. 11

His intervention also disrupted Gu Yue’s probing of Tang Wulin’s Golden Dragon King bloodline. Gu Yue subsequently regarded Nan Liujing as an unpredictable factor worth investigating. 12

Personality

Nan Liujing is notably calm under pressure. He maintained composure when confronted by Leng Yaozhu, during Cai Yue’er’s exposure, and against stronger Soul Masters in public competition. 28 43 103

He is calculating and opportunity-driven, willing to take risks when their potential value outweighs the danger. His decision to intervene in Na’er’s abduction attempt was made with full awareness that larger forces could target him. 11

Despite his ambition, he is protective of those close to him. He consistently supports Na’er, aids Yuanen Yehui’s training and family matters, protects Ye Xinglan during Leng Yulai’s ambush, and supplies his companions with rare cultivation resources. 30 119 150 198
