Background

Xue Yuheng is a transmigrator from Earth who spent six years studying the white jade scroll in his sea of consciousness. When his martial soul awakened, he gained enough spiritual power to open it and named it the Wordless Heavenly Book. Though born with innate full soul power, he initially could not attach soul rings, making him reluctant to attend the Douling Empire's Elite Hall. 1

He was named Crown Prince at birth and granted the title Prince Gan. As the Douling Emperor's only direct male descendant, he was raised as the prospective ruler expected to unite the continent. He considers the Douling Empire's weakness—especially its anticipated destruction by the Sun Moon Empire—a central reason to gather power and allies. 1

His engagement to Xiao Xiao is both personal and political: she is the heir of the Soul Suppressing Family, one of Douling's three great families. He supported her when her Soul-Suppressing Sword mutated into a cauldron, then helped investigate and evolve her martial soul. 1 2

Personality

Xue Yuheng is calm, calculating, and strongly motivated by control. He studies people, martial souls, resources, and political factions as pieces of a larger plan to strengthen Douling and eventually unify the continent. His negotiations with the Golden Crow Family, the Two Emperors of Ice and Snow, the Evil Emperor, and major sects consistently show a willingness to trade rare opportunities for long-term loyalty. 3 14 53 59

Despite his pragmatism, he is protective of those he accepts as his own. He defended Xiao Xiao before her clan, helped Li Rou and her mother, secured a future for Huo Yuxi and Huo Yun'er, and stayed beside the unconscious Yu Mengdi after defeating her. 1 4 43 56

He distrusts passive fate, favoring preparation and personal agency. Even after being touched by the Power of Destiny, he focuses on his own ability to shape outcomes. 48
