Background / History

Su Qingli is the daughter of Su Tianrui, an S-rank Lightning-Type Metahuman whose Crimson Firmament Divine Lightning later becomes central to the search for his whereabouts. Su Tianrui was her only teacher and created the Heavenly Lightning Divine Punishment Sword Battle Technique. 803 858 969

In her youth, Su Qingli and Ling Shuang trained together at Thunder Martial Hall's Elite Training Camp. The two S-rank awakeners were renowned for overwhelming the prodigies of their generation. 718

She eventually became the hall master of Thunder Martial Hall, one of Great Xia's foremost martial halls. Her earlier rapid rise to the ninth order was enabled by an SSR-rank cultivation resource with severe side effects; this initially limited her future advancement. 285 713 803 The Red Cloud Fruit she obtains in the Void Shattering Tower removes this lingering restriction and allows her to resume normal advancement. 962 1047

Su Qingli recruits Xu Jingming for Thunder Martial Hall, first offering him an SS-rank Spirit Refining Combat Skill and later accepting him as her personal disciple. She provides him with the Divine River Contemplation Technique, Lightning-Type Battle Techniques, and her old Radiant Lightning Staff. 294 368 369

As director, she attempts to consolidate Thunder Martial Hall against Vice-Curator Hu Jinyu and the Li Family's influence. She appoints trusted allies to important positions, supports Ling Shuang's and Xu Jingming's advancement, and gradually transfers more administrative authority to her disciple and friend. 570 715 726 804 849

During the Void Shattering Tower expedition, she is severely injured by Nila's Resentment Blood Spike and temporarily falls to Second-Order strength. Xu Jingming remains with her, carries her through the tower, and helps her recover enough strength to continue the expedition. 941 943 945 948

She later evolves her Jade Purity Divine Lightning into SS-rank Upper Purity Divine Lightning through Lightning Elemental Essence. 986 Su Qingli also joins Xu Jingming in locating her father within the Space Turbulence Layer, where he is trapped in a prolonged elementalized state after suffering severe Mental Strength damage. 969 973 1084

A Void Creature subsequently traps Su Qingli in an illusion through foreign Mental Strength lodged in her Mental Sea. Xu Jingming helps awaken her and removes the remaining foreign Mental Strength, after which their relationship develops into an established romantic partnership. 970 975 977 Su Tianrui later accepts their relationship after returning from the Space Turbulence Layer. 1085

After her return to Blue Star, Su Qingli remains closely involved in Thunder Martial Hall's administration and Xu Jingming's activities. She accompanies him during later expeditions, publicly displays affection toward him, and helps oversee the development of his allies. 1011 1015 1035 1086

Appearance

Su Qingli appears to be around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. She is tall and slender, standing approximately 1.72 meters, with fair skin and an aloof, ethereal bearing. 285 945

• Often surrounded by jade-green or azure lightning while cultivating or fighting. 368 986
• Usually favors plain, elegant clothing; she has been seen in loose training clothes bearing Thunder Martial Hall's Blue Lightning Emblem. 368
• Has also worn formal Thunder Martial Hall attire, a white suspender dress, a flowing green dress, a pale green dress, a white gown, and combat suits. 803 879 1037 1110
• Her evolved Upper Purity Divine Lightning manifests as pure azure lightning. 986
• Her appearance becomes somewhat more mature and alluring after entering a romantic relationship with Xu Jingming. 1110

Personality

Su Qingli is composed, dignified, and deeply conscious of her responsibilities as Thunder Martial Hall's leader. She is cautious in organizational politics and refuses to allow Vice-Curator Hu Jinyu's faction to dictate important appointments within the hall. 804

As a mentor, she is generous with rare resources and attentive to Xu Jingming's development. Although initially surprised by how quickly he outgrows conventional instruction, she adapts by treating him increasingly as both a disciple and a trusted equal. 369 491 804

She is protective of those under her authority, particularly Xu Jingming. When Hu Jinyu attempts to discipline him, she directly intervenes on his behalf. 1006

Despite her usually cool demeanor, Su Qingli can be teasing with Ling Shuang and Xu Jingming, and she is visibly shaken when confronted with matters involving her father or her own unexpected feelings. 717 969 1057 Following the Void Shattering Tower expedition, she becomes more open about her affection for Xu Jingming and later candidly explains their relationship to Ling Shuang. 977 1052

She remains competitive and occasionally insecure about Xu Jingming's rapid growth. Although she is his teacher and initially possesses the greater cultivation realm, she recognizes that his combat strength is gradually approaching and eventually surpassing hers. 717 885 925

• Her resistance to mental illusions improves after experiencing and overcoming the Void Creature's illusion. 975 977

Healing

Su Qingli is identified as an SS-rank healer. Following her injury in the Void Shattering Tower, she uses rare elixirs to recover substantial strength and restore her Qi-Blood. 948 956
