Appearance

Chu Feng is a tall, handsome young man whose bearing is defined by confidence and persistent arrogance. As a True Transmission disciple, he commonly wears the Azure Profound Sect's distinguished robes. 162

• Cloud-patterned brocade robes associated with True Transmission disciples. 162
• Silver-patterned azure robe during his confrontation with Fang Han. 210
• Later manifests bloodshot eyes, a pale complexion, and a blood-red aura after cultivating the Blood Demon Technique. 287 293
• Uses an evil ghost mask and altered voice while attacking the Fang Clan to conceal his identity. 293

Personality

Chu Feng is proud, aloof, and accustomed to receiving deference because of his True Transmission status. He treats lower-ranked disciples dismissively and expects those connected to him to act in accordance with his wishes. His father, Chu Yunshan, displays the same entitlement while relying on Chu Feng's position to elevate the Chu Family. 104 106

He is politically calculating when necessary. After Fang Han gains recognition through the Seven Sects Competition, Chu Feng temporarily refrains from openly suppressing him, recognizing the danger of acting against a disciple with growing sect support. 163 However, his caution repeatedly gives way to vindictiveness: he employs informants, attempts to manipulate missions, and directs Song Xiang to arrange attacks against Fang Han. 162 204 210

Fang Han surpassing him on both the General and Prodigy Rankings devastates Chu Feng's pride. His humiliation turns into obsession, ultimately making him willing to cultivate a demonic art, murder civilians and martial artists, and endanger Fang Han's entire clan for revenge. 275 287 290 293

Abilities & Skills

Martial Cultivation

Chu Feng is a talented Azure Profound Sect disciple who reaches the Prodigy Ranking and later rapidly advances through the fifth and fourth ranks. 131 293

• Possessed mid-fifth-rank Internal Qi, nearing the late stage, during his first duel with Fang Han. 276
• Advanced to the late fifth rank through demonic cultivation. 287
• Reached the early fourth rank before attacking Fang Mansion. 293 294
• His fourth-rank Internal Qi gives his attacks overwhelming destructive force, but Fang Han's superior footwork and swordsmanship allow him to fight across the realm gap. 294 295

Swordsmanship

Chu Feng is an experienced and vicious swordsman whose attacks emphasize speed, pressure, and scorching sword qi. 276

• Wields swordsmanship that forces opponents to defend against targeted, lethal strikes. 276
• Uses Crimson Flame Slash, a trump-card attack that creates a crimson sword qi more than ten feet long. 276
• Combines his swordsmanship with the destructive, corrosive properties of Blood Demon Internal Qi after entering the demonic path. 294
• His swordsmanship is ultimately overcome twice by Fang Han's Void-Sundering Nine Swords and superior movement techniques. 276 287

Blood Demon Technique

After his first public defeat by Fang Han, Chu Feng is offered the demonic Blood Demon Technique by a mysterious black-robed figure. He eventually adopts it in pursuit of power and revenge. 278 287

• Devours the blood qi of martial artists to accelerate his cultivation. 287
• Absorbs the blood and vitality of victims after killing them. 290 293
• Rapidly raises his cultivation from the late fifth rank to the fourth rank. 287 293
• Leaves his Internal Qi with a blood-red sheen and exposes him as a demonic cultivator. 286 292
• His use of the art leads to the slaughter of Azure Profound Sect-affiliated families and his eventual execution. 290 296

Sect Influence and Faction Building

Before his fall, Chu Feng uses his status as a True Transmission disciple and Prodigy Ranking member to build a network of followers, affiliated clans, businesses, and sympathetic sect personnel. 121 131

• Receives wealth and resources from affiliated forces and families. 162 197
• Uses Song Xiang to monitor Fang Han, influence mission assignments, and arrange schemes against him. 162 204 210
• Employs Jiang He and Chen Ying as tools within the sect. 121 214
• Hires trackers and True Transmission disciples to protect his external interests from the “Thousand-Hand Thief.” 217 239
• His network collapses as Fang Han systematically raids its assets and kills or defeats its key members. 197 239 241

Equipment

• Crimson Pattern Sword — A slender longsword marked by faint blood-red patterns; used to perform Crimson Flame Slash. 276
• Silver soft armor — Protects his chest from Fang Han's otherwise lethal sword strikes during both challenge-platform duels. 276 287
• Evil ghost mask — Worn during his assault on Fang Mansion to hide his identity. 293

Relationships

• Fang Han — Primary rival and eventual killer. Chu Feng begins targeting Fang Han after the latter refuses to be used by the Chu Family; their conflict escalates through sect politics, ranking disputes, two duels, and Chu Feng's descent into demonic cultivation. 106 275 276 287 296
• Song Xiang — Trusted subordinate and confidant who carries out surveillance, plots, and recruitment on Chu Feng's behalf; killed during the pursuit of the “Thousand-Hand Thief.” 121 204 217 241
• Chu Chong — Chu Feng's clansman and cousin. Chu Chong provokes Fang Han to avenge Chu Feng's grievance, but is humiliated and defeated. 127 128 244
• Chu Yunshan — Father and Clan Head of the Chu Family. He relies on Chu Feng's status to make the family a major power in Clear River City; he is killed when the sect raids the family after Chu Feng's execution. 106 298
• Black-Robed Figure — Mysterious demonic cultivator who offers Chu Feng the Blood Demon Technique, later rescues him from Fang Han, and considers him a disappointing disciple. 278 295 296
• Yun Muyao — Openly dislikes Chu Feng's arrogance and severely injures him after Zhao Kun insults her younger sister. 133 213
• Elder Chen Xuan — Protects Fang Han from Chu Feng's improper suppression, becoming a persistent obstacle to Chu Feng's schemes. 109 162

History

Chu Feng was already a True Transmission disciple of the Azure Profound Sect when he entrusted Fang Han with a delivery mission to the Chu Family in Clear River City. His status had transformed the formerly insignificant Chu Family into one of the city's great families, while his father used that influence to treat Fang Han as a subordinate. Fang Han's refusal to intervene in the family's dispute with the Liu Family became the starting point of their hostility. 104 106

After reaching the fifth rank and entering the Prodigy Ranking at No. 100, Chu Feng's standing rose sharply. He began using his influence to isolate Fang Han, attempting to interfere with Fang Han's resources, missions, and relationships through subordinates such as Song Xiang and Jiang He. Elder Chen Xuan and Wang Miao's support prevented these efforts from completely succeeding. 121 131 139 162

Fang Han's rapid rise transformed Chu Feng's irritation into alarm. Fang Han rendered merit in the Zhou Clan case, rose through the General Ranking, became a True Transmission disciple, and systematically robbed the clans and businesses attached to Chu Feng. Although Chu Feng hired trackers and stronger protectors, the “Thousand-Hand Thief” repeatedly evaded him, destroying both his income and prestige. 192 197 217 239 241

When Fang Han overtook him on both the General Ranking and the Prodigy Ranking, Chu Feng publicly challenged him. Fang Han defeated him decisively on the challenge platform, leaving him injured and humiliated before the entire sect. 273 275 276 A subsequent rematch after Chu Feng's demonic advancement ends even more decisively, with Fang Han crushing him despite Chu Feng's late fifth-rank cultivation. 286 287

Consumed by vengeance, Chu Feng embraces the Blood Demon Technique and begins annihilating Azure Profound Sect-affiliated families to devour their blood qi. Fang Han identifies him through the demonic scent left at massacre sites. 290 292 Chu Feng then attacks Fang Mansion after advancing to the fourth rank, intending to slaughter Fang Han's clan. Fang Han defeats him across the realm gap, and after the black-robed figure's intervention fails, Chu Feng attempts to flee. Fang Han pursues and kills him. 293 294 295 296
