Background and History
Zhu Juntang is the third young lady of the Zhu Family, whose personal properties alone are described as sufficient to rank on the Forbes list. She initially seeks out Liu Chang'an after becoming fascinated by his apparent abnormal abilities. To investigate him, she offers Zhong Qing money to seduce him, while also hinting that she wants to evade an arranged marriage. 18 32
After witnessing Liu Chang'an’s rooftop feats, she attempts to recruit him with wealth, influence, secrecy, and women. Her confidence survives being kicked into a swimming pool; she immediately renews her effort to make him work for her. 32 33
Her mother raises her access level within the Zhu Family, allowing Zhu Juntang to deploy resources—including certain biotechnology products—that even the military cannot readily obtain. When Liu Chang'an formalizes the Nine Provinces Wind and Thunder Sword Sect, Zhu becomes an ordinary member despite her objections. 270 272
Zhu’s interest in Liu gradually moves beyond curiosity about superpowers. She becomes unusually perceptive when considering supernatural matters, correctly suspecting that Liu is immortal and drawing connections between him and Ye Chenyu. 795
After developing abnormal physical strength, Zhu begins training with Liu Chang'an as her unwilling target. Her power later surges enough to launch both Liu and Bai Hui into a tea garden, prompting her to claim that she has defeated the Sect Master. 948 1038
She increasingly treats the Sword Sect as a future inheritance. Zhu recruits potential allies, plans public-relations campaigns, distributes gifts to cultivate support, and openly considers usurping Liu Chang'an or building her own faction within the sect. 961 962 1081
Appearance
Zhu Juntang maintains an extensive, highly curated wardrobe. Her clothing is photographed and catalogued in a dedicated AI-assisted application that recommends complete outfits according to her mood, schedule, and preferred theme. 828
- Often wears elaborate Lolita-style dresses, stockings, and accessories. 828
- Owns several finely made Ming-style hanfu outfits. 270
- Has worn a black “goddess-court”-style Lolita outfit selected by her wardrobe app. 828

- Has commissioned high-tech tights that are described as resistant even to bullets. 717
Personality
Zhu Juntang is extravagantly confident, theatrical, and status-conscious. She routinely calls herself a fairy, frames ordinary events as grand political or martial-arts struggles, and assumes that her wealth and personal charm should let her obtain what she wants. 32 899
She is also provocative by nature. Zhu deliberately tests Liu Chang'an’s tolerance through pranks, insults, kicks, spitting, and elaborate schemes; she considers the risk exciting because she believes he will not truly kill or abandon her. 467 786 974
Her confidence often exceeds her knowledge, particularly when she misuses historical allusions or overestimates her own skills. However, her unconventional thinking becomes notably effective when confronting the supernatural, and she is capable of drawing sharp conclusions from limited clues. 795 977 1103
Zhu is socially pragmatic and politically minded. She understands the value of gifts, public image, loyal subordinates, and building alliances, even when her methods are self-serving or transparently manipulative. 714 962 1081
