Background / History

Gu Yuena enters Shrek Academy under a human identity and sits beside Mu Xuanheng on the first day of class. His visible nervousness and probing question about her dragon-type martial soul immediately establish mutual suspicion and familiarity. She later stands with him against Zhou Yi's excessive punishment of the freshmen. 16 17

During the freshman assessment, she and Mu Xuanheng are designated the “strongest freshmen.” Her flame vortex and unusual soul rings establish her as an overwhelming combatant, while her blunt demand that Huo Yuhao's team surrender reflects her confidence. 20 She is subsequently exempted from the assessment alongside Mu Xuanheng and publicly reveals herself as a four-ring Soul Ancestor with a hundred-thousand-year soul ring when Dai Huabin challenges the decision. 28

Gu Yuena develops Battle Armor in partnership with Mu Xuanheng, naming her eventual two-word set Yue Heng, while his is named Heng Yue. The pair use their armor to defeat the Soul Saint Yuan Ying despite the enormous difference in cultivation, and she later dominates matches in the Soul Fighting tournament with elemental attacks. 31 39 40 42

Her connection to the Star Dou Great Forest is gradually exposed when Mu Xuanheng visits her “family.” Di Tian, Bi Ji, and Xiong Jun serve her in human disguises, leading Mu Xuanheng and the Extreme North soul beasts to identify her as the Silver Dragon King and common ruler of soul beasts. 55 She maintains the disguise while protecting her younger sister, Gu Yueqiu'er, and controlling what Mu Xuanheng learns about her origins. 56 57

Gu Yuena's concern for soul beasts becomes central during the Sunset Forest arc. She considers whether the human–soul beast conflict will end in extinction, then works with Mu Xuanheng and Qiu'er to eliminate the Jade Phosphorus Seven Absolutes Flowers and restore the area for other soul beasts. 69 70 She eventually supports Mu Xuanheng's proposal for a demiplane and Contracts, helping establish the Soul Contract Pavilion as a bridge between humans and soul beasts. 72 99 100

Her relationship with Mu Xuanheng remains entangled with her duty. She leaves with Di Tian after revealing her identity during the conflict surrounding Qiu'er, then returns at Sea God Fate and receives Mu Xuanheng's confession. 92 95 96 The Yin-Yang Love Querying Valley trials force both of them to confront possible lives without one another; Gu Yuena ultimately declares that she no longer wants her mission if it means losing him. 108 109

After both become Soul Sages, Gu Yuena nevertheless declares that she has wagered on making Mu Xuanheng love her without returning his feelings. She challenges him to a battle to the death, claiming that restoring the soul beast race's former godhood is its necessary “upper limit.” 119

Appearance

Gu Yuena is a striking silver-haired young woman with crystal-like purple eyes and an aloof expression. Her beauty and silver hair make her instantly recognizable in public, where she is widely called a “goddess.” 42 108

• Long silver hair draped over her shoulders. 108
• Purple eyes described as resembling crystals. 108
• Usually composed and cold in public, even while making threats or issuing commands. 34 85
• Uses the Silver Dragon Spear as her primary weapon. 30 46

Personality

Gu Yuena is proud, direct, and intensely self-assured. She regards many opponents as simply weak rather than worthy of consideration, calmly insisting that she and Mu Xuanheng can defeat twelve core disciples together. 34 In battle, this confidence becomes dominance: she answers threats with elemental force, openly displays her Battle Armor, and refuses to be intimidated by powerful enemies. 39 85

Beneath this detachment, she is deeply protective. She defends Qiu'er from Mu Xuanheng's teasing, scolds her sister for reckless behavior, and intervenes when she believes Qiu'er is in danger. 56 57 Her concern extends to the entire soul beast race, whose future she treats as her personal responsibility. 69 101

Her feelings for Mu Xuanheng create a persistent conflict between affection, jealousy, and duty. She hides her identity from him, attempts to regulate her emotions to avoid falling in love, and later struggles to reconcile their relationship with her obligation to seek a future for soul beasts. 40 55 96 119
