Background / History

Lin Qingfeng held considerable status in Starry Sky City; Martial Soul Hall personnel greeted him deferentially when he brought his son to awaken his Martial Soul. He is also the head of the Lin Clan and possesses substantial family wealth and influence. 1 13

He and Qian Shu left their respective families after their marriage was not recognized. Although both families later accepted the couple after Lin Fan's birth, they rarely visited. 15

Before Lin Fan's awakening, Lin Qingfeng had concealed aspects of his background and strength. Lin Fan's extraordinary Twin Martial Souls and unusually high innate Soul Power made Qingfeng fear that Martial Soul Hall would investigate their family. 2

Believing that Lin Fan's talent should not be wasted, Qingfeng personally brought him to the Star Dou Forest to obtain Soul Rings and establish a cultivation foundation. He initially advised Lin Fan to pursue a control-type path, using captured Spirit Beasts as his primary combat force. 2 3

Qingfeng later disclosed that his Frost Sword Martial Soul had mutated, leaving him unable to advance beyond Spirit Saint. Lin Fan eventually evolved it into the Sky Frost Sword, removing the limitation implied by its former defect. 5 34

Appearance

Lin Qingfeng is a mature Soul Master and family patriarch. He is commonly seen traveling with Lin Fan or wielding his sword in battle.

• Carries himself with the authority expected of the Lin Clan head.
• Uses a Frost Sword Martial Soul, later replaced by the more formidable Sky Frost Sword. 7 34
• His evolved sword releases intense cold even without activating a Soul Ring. 34

Personality

Lin Qingfeng is protective, practical, and strongly devoted to his family. Lin Fan's exceptional talent makes him proud, but it also causes him deep concern because he believes such talent will attract danger. 3 34

He supports Lin Fan's choices rather than forcing a path upon him. He offered Lin Fan the choice between cultivation and a comfortable life supported by the family, and later accepted his son's decision to train outside rather than attend an academy. 2 13

Despite being a high-ranking Spirit Saint, Qingfeng is wary around major powers such as Dugu Bo and Heaven Dou royalty. His caution contrasts with Lin Fan's boldness, though he consistently backs his son when necessary. 13 15
