Background
Qian Renxue initially approaches Nan Feng because Qian Xunji tells her that befriending Bibi Dong’s adopted younger brother will give her a legitimate reason to visit the Saintess Palace and see her mother. Although initially disdainful of Nan Feng’s level-twelve spirit power, she accepts the arrangement out of her longing for Bibi Dong’s attention 14.
Her early encounters with Nan Feng are marked by jealousy, pride, and repeated misunderstandings. Attempting to approach or give him gifts often ends with Nan Feng fleeing from her or covertly trapping her with spider silk. Her failures force her to apologize, negotiate, and confront her habit of expecting others to obey her wishes 15 18 19 20 24.
After Qian Xunji’s death, Qian Renxue is left grieving and emotionally unstable. She initially confronts Nan Feng over the death of the young Nan Feng she believed Bibi Dong had killed, but his arguments about survival, revenge, and Spirit Hall’s hypocrisy leave her unable to respond 75 82 83. She later seeks support from Nan Feng and begins cautiously sharing meals with Bibi Dong at the Saintess Palace 85 86.
Qian Renxue eventually learns that adult Nan Feng is the same person as the childhood Nan Feng she knew, and that his claimed identity as Bibi Dong’s maternal uncle was fabricated. The Angel God’s divine sense reassures her that Nan Feng will not harm her, though this revelation intensifies her emotional attachment and distrust of his earlier deception 169 170 178.
Personality
Qian Renxue is proud, competitive, and initially dismissive of those she considers weaker. She refuses to admit defeat even after Nan Feng repeatedly restrains her, seeking Qian Daoliu’s help to understand the spider silk rather than accepting her loss 23.
Despite this pride, she is persistent and willing to humble herself when knowledge or affection is at stake. She repeatedly asks Nan Feng to bind her again so that she can learn how his ability works, even after experiencing the loss of her Sacred Soul Power 24 25 26.
Her strongest emotional vulnerability is her desire for Bibi Dong’s affection. She endures awkwardness, rejection, and guilt to be near her mother, including secretly allowing herself to be disguised as Nan Feng’s life-sized body pillow so Bibi Dong can hold her while asleep 39 40 41. Following Qian Xunji’s death, this need for belonging becomes more apparent as she turns to Nan Feng for guidance and support 85 86.
Qian Renxue is deeply lonely, having few genuine peers or confidants beyond Nan Feng. Her dependence on him motivates both her interest in Soul Tool study and her decision to infiltrate Heaven Dou City, where she hopes to remain close to him and prove that she can be useful 117 137 157.
Although she begins to question her arrogance after Qian Xunji’s death, she retains a calculating and decisive side. She secretly studies Xue Qinghe for two months, engineers his apparent illness and death, and assumes his identity without consulting Nan Feng beforehand 156. Her increasingly possessive and romantic feelings toward Nan Feng also make her wary of Snow Empress and Ice Empress, whom she sees as rivals for his attention 118 169 170.

Water and Fire Golden Body
Nan Feng uses the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, hundred-thousand-year Whale Rubber, and the essences of two Immortal Herbs to temper Qian Renxue’s body.
- The process uses fused extreme ice-and-fire energy to strengthen her body and cleanse her cultivation foundation 173 174.
- After completing the tempering, she becomes resistant to water, fire, and poisons, while her physical constitution and Soul Power foundation are substantially improved 174.
Relationships
- Bibi Dong — Her mother. Qian Renxue longs for her affection, but their relationship is strained by Bibi Dong’s resentment toward Qian Xunji and her tendency to push Qian Renxue away 14 39 43. After Qian Xunji’s death, Bibi Dong no longer actively rejects her, allowing guarded shared meals and a tentative reconciliation 85 117.
- Qian Xunji — Her father. He exploits her desire to see Bibi Dong by encouraging her to befriend Nan Feng; his later death leaves her grieving and directionless 14 82. Despite learning of his crimes, Qian Renxue remains attached to him and later pleads with Nan Feng on his behalf 134.
- Qian Daoliu — Her grandfather and protector. He rescues her from Nan Feng’s spider silk, investigates Nan Feng’s abilities, and recognizes her attachment to Nan Feng 23 25 48. Following Qian Xunji’s death, he warns her not to repeat her father’s arrogance and supports her future growth 86.

- Ice Empress — Another of Nan Feng’s close associates. Qian Renxue is wary of her relationship with Nan Feng and becomes distressed after overhearing their intimacy 118 170.
- Angel God — The divine ancestor of the Angel lineage. Her divine sense reveals Nan Feng’s true identity to Qian Renxue and assures her that he will not harm her 170 178.
- Xue Qinghe — The original eldest prince of Heaven Dou. Qian Renxue secretly eliminates him and replaces him using the Angel Skull disguise 156.
- Mu Feiluan — Her fellow registered disciple under Nan Feng and a fellow participant in his Soul Tool training 168 172.
- Yue Guan — His prized flowers and plants are repeatedly used as compensation after Qian Renxue damages Bibi Dong’s flowerbeds 23 24.
Story Role / Major Arcs
Attempt to Reach Bibi Dong
Qian Renxue agrees to befriend Nan Feng after Qian Xunji presents him as the path to spending more time with Bibi Dong. Her first efforts fail when Nan Feng acts frightened of her, prompting Bibi Dong to take him away 14 15.
The Spider Silk Rivalry
Her interactions with Nan Feng escalate into a recurring contest. Nan Feng traps her in spider silk that drains her soul power, while Qian Renxue alternates between threats, pleas, apologies, and renewed challenges. She is ultimately bound four times despite learning the mechanics of Nan Feng’s first soul skill, Demon Spider Summon 19 20 25 30 31.
Reconciliation Attempts
After damaging Bibi Dong’s flowerbeds, Qian Renxue shows remorse and begins recognizing that she has a tendency to force her wishes on others. She later asks Nan Feng for help improving her relationship with Bibi Dong and insists on healing his injured wrist out of guilt 24 45.
The Hugging Pillow Deception
Qian Renxue secretly visits the Saintess Palace at night and allows Nan Feng to disguise her as a life-sized hugging pillow. Bibi Dong unknowingly holds her while sleeping, fulfilling Qian Renxue’s wish for maternal closeness. The deception is later exposed, intensifying the tension between Bibi Dong and Nan Feng 40 41 42.
Grief After Qian Xunji’s Death
Qian Xunji’s death leaves Qian Renxue distraught. Seeing an adult Nan Feng who resembles the young Nan Feng she believes was killed, she confronts him and demands that he leave. Nan Feng challenges her understanding of revenge and directs her anger toward the fact that Bibi Dong was responsible for the young Nan Feng’s death 75 82 83.
Growing Dependence on Nan Feng
Following her father’s death, Qian Renxue becomes more vulnerable and seeks Nan Feng’s company. Though he initially rejects her, he later agrees to care for her; she accepts his stern guidance about eating properly and resolves not to repeat Qian Xunji’s arrogance 85 86.
Soul Tool Apprenticeship
While grieving and isolated in the Pope Palace, Qian Renxue begins sketching Soul Tool designs. Nan Feng gives her beginner materials, research notes, and the ''Bee Sting'' Soul Tool, beginning her development as a Soul Tool student 117 118.
Plea for Qian Xunji and Confronting Loneliness
Qian Renxue later asks Nan Feng to show mercy toward Qian Xunji, but Nan Feng rebukes her by emphasizing the suffering caused by her father’s actions 134. When Nan Feng prepares to leave Spirit City, she breaks down and admits how alone she feels, begging him to remain and continue teaching her Soul Tool crafting 137.
Heaven Dou Infiltration
Seeking to help Nan Feng and remain near him, Qian Renxue secretly infiltrates Heaven Dou City. She observes Xue Qinghe, arranges his death, and assumes his identity with the Angel Skull disguise, intending to advance Spirit Hall’s plan to control the empire from within 154 155 156.
Her stated justification is that taking Heaven Dou from within could reduce the casualties of a future continental conflict, but she later admits that loneliness and her desire to see Nan Feng were central motives 154 157.
Registered Disciple of Nan Feng
After confronting her unilateral actions, Nan Feng agrees to accept Qian Renxue as a nominal disciple. This gives him a legitimate reason to train and monitor her while explaining Xue Qinghe’s altered behavior to the Heaven Dou court 157 168.
She subsequently passes Nan Feng’s Soul Tool examination as Xue Qinghe and is publicly selected with Mu Feiluan for further instruction 168.
Identity Revelation and Body Tempering
Qian Renxue learns that Nan Feng is neither her great-uncle nor a blood relative, but rather the childhood Nan Feng who had deceived her through a transformed appearance. Although hurt by the deception, she accepts the Angel God’s assurance that he has never intended to harm her 169 170 178.
Nan Feng later takes her to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, where he tempers her body through a prolonged Water and Fire Golden Body process. The treatment significantly strengthens her constitution and cultivation foundation 172 173 174.
