Background / History
After becoming a Universe Master, he adopted the title City Lord of Chaos to reflect his commitment to guarding Chaos City, which he considers the origin of the Human Race in the universe. He oversees the city as a foundational human cultivation site while leading the Virtual Universe Company lineage alongside figures such as the Lord of Darkness and Lord of Youhou. 359 360
Within Chaos City, he personally screens every incoming batch of core geniuses below the Immortal level. His examination detects hidden backgrounds, alien spies, and soul-controlled servants without the subjects noticing; Immortals cannot be screened the same way and are monitored on their first visit instead. 54
He took particular notice of Lu Yan'an during the latter's first visit to Chaos City. Initially intending to accept Lu as a disciple because of his talent and law comprehension, he ultimately allowed his junior brother, the Lord of Darkness, to take him instead. He nevertheless continued to regard Lu as a nephew and closely supported his development. 67 68 301

Personality
The City Lord of Chaos is exacting, restrained, and deeply invested in the Human Race's long-term strength. His praise is exceptionally rare, making his description of Lu Yan'an as “very good” and “excellent” notable even among his own disciples. 140
He favors patient accumulation over reckless advancement. When asked to discuss Lu Yan'an's Secret Abyss inheritance directly, he declined because doing so could create harmful long-term consequences; he instead considered the Lord of Darkness a better person to approach Lu. 245
Despite his stern reputation, he is protective of promising juniors and treats Lu Yan'an with familial warmth. He monitors Lu's missions, grants exceptional cultivation permissions, provides protection during crises, and takes pride in Lu's accomplishments. 138 141 243 301
“Like me, I sit in this Chaos City, and to ensure I never forget the belief of guarding this origin of the Human Race, I changed my title to ‘City Lord of Chaos’.” 359
