Liu Family

Biodata

Background and History

The Liu Family was among the Silvis City powers seeking to control Ye Lingling, whose Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul offered exceptional healing abilities. After her grandfather Ye Tianxin disappeared, Ye Lingling regarded the family as the most eager to obtain her and believed it would prevent her from leaving without Dugu Bo's intervention 5 6.

The family also sought to recruit Qin Yuan after learning that he had absorbed Soul Rings beyond the usual age limit. Patriarch Liu Hong wanted both Qin Yuan and Ye Lingling brought into the family quickly, hoping Qin Yuan's method would strengthen its future generations. Family descendants at the academy conveyed recruitment terms to Qin Yuan; he entertained the offer to lower their guard while arranging Ye Lingling's escape 6.

Qin Yuan and Ye Lingling left Silvis City using a decoy, but Liu Family elder Liu Chen encountered them in the wilderness. He demanded Ye Lingling and Qin Yuan's Soul Ring absorption method. Qin Yuan killed him after a prolonged fight, and the Yao Family patriarch stayed behind to obstruct any Liu Family members who followed 7 8.

Members and Strength

Martial Soul

• Leopard Cat — the family's inherited Martial Soul. Liu Chen's leg injury severely impaired the speed he relied on in combat 8.

Relationships

• Ye Lingling — the family sought to secure her Nine Heart Begonia inheritance and kept her under surveillance in Silvis City 5 6.
• Qin Yuan — initially a recruitment target; he used the family's interest to buy time for Ye Lingling's escape, then killed its pursuing elder Liu Chen 6 7 8.
• Yao Family — a rival for Qin Yuan's recruitment. Its patriarch later covered Qin Yuan and Ye Lingling's departure by waiting to intercept Liu Family pursuers 6 7 8.
