Background
Chu Ge is a transmigrant who secretly pursued martial arts in Linyuan County. To avoid exposing his unusual origins and capabilities, he kept distance from people familiar with his predecessor, including Wang Xiuyun, and concealed his true cultivation whenever possible. 1 11
He inherited the Chu family assets after his elder sister, Chu Feixue, joined the Hidden Water Sect. He sold the family’s underperforming Linyuan holdings for 30,000 taels, used the proceeds to fund cultivation, and later dismantled the Chu residence after settling its servants and Steward Fu. 11 13 35
After joining the Demon Suppressing Division, Chu Ge rose rapidly from Golden Sparrow Tiger Guard to Deputy Director of Cloud Shadow City. His departure from the Great Zhou’s service eventually led to a Class B wanted notice and a reward for his head. 81 115 151
He established Dragon Abyss City as his power base, attracting followers, rescued cultivators, and former subordinates. His defeat of Guan Zizai and later accomplishments made Dragon Abyss City a recognized regional power. 177 209
Appearance
Chu Ge is repeatedly described as tall, broad-built, and imposing. His natural appearance features soaring brows and star-like eyes, while his Left Path arts allow him to assume radically different identities. 13 48 107
- Tall and notably burly, even compared with city guards. 107
- Possesses a sturdy, imposing physique that becomes increasingly extraordinary as his cultivation rises. 106 317

- Can enter draconic, devilish, or Four Symbols Sacred Body states marked by scales, enlarged musculature, spiritual armor, and electrical arcs. 234 304 305
Personality
Chu Ge is pragmatic, secretive, and intensely focused on cultivation. He avoids publicizing his strength without reason, believing that recklessness invites disaster; nevertheless, he will reveal enough ability to gain respect or deter threats when needed. 11 24
He is resourceful and patient, often treating wealth, intelligence, artifacts, and even enemies as cultivation resources. His careful planning is paired with decisiveness in battle, particularly against those who threaten him or his followers. 12 120 306
Despite his self-protective nature, he treats followers with measured sincerity. He allows rescued youths to choose whether to remain with him, settles servants before leaving Linyuan, supports subordinates’ cultivation, and aids vulnerable people encountered in disaster zones. 35 128 150 358
Chu Ge also consciously reflects on the dangers of power. After learning more about Divine Weapons, he resolves not to lose his humanity or become an enemy of the world merely to gain strength. 138
