Background / History

Ling Yuan was a talented member of Martial Soul Hall's younger generation and a colleague of Bibi Dong's. The two were of similar age and maintained a close friendship, with Ling Yuan serving as both Bibi Dong's companion and a candid confidante. 2

During the Yelin City Lantern Festival, Ling Yuan eagerly encouraged Bibi Dong to enjoy the festivities, including the soul-guided fireworks and lantern riddles. When Qian Xunji confronted the pair for leaving without permission, Ling Yuan immediately accepted responsibility in order to protect Bibi Dong. 3

While chasing a thief during the festival, Ling Yuan mistakenly attacked Bibi Xi, who had actually been helping the victim. His striking resemblance to Bibi Dong and near-identical surname led Ling Yuan to suspect that he was the Saintess's lost relative. She later handled this possibility cautiously rather than immediately raising Bibi Dong's hopes. 19 22

Her suspicion proved correct: Bibi Xi was Bibi Dong's younger brother. Ling Yuan helped arrange his meeting with Bibi Dong and became increasingly close to him after he joined Martial Soul Hall. 29 31 62

Personality

Ling Yuan is bold, decisive, and quick to act. Her instinct upon hearing a theft victim's cry was to pursue the culprit immediately, but her misidentification of Bibi Xi also showed her impulsiveness. She was sincerely remorseful once she learned the truth and attempted to make amends. 18 19

She is fiercely loyal to Bibi Dong. Ling Yuan protects her friend's privacy, supports her through the search for Bibi Xi, and remains a steady source of reassurance during Bibi Dong's worries over Qian Xunji's dangerous mission. 22 130

Though normally assertive and teasing, Ling Yuan is sensitive about romance and initially envies Bibi Dong's relationship with Qian Xunji. Her confidence gives way to visible nervousness when Bibi Xi confesses to her publicly. 85 173
