Background / History

Escape from the Zhu Family

Zhu Zhuqing is the second miss of the Star Luo Empire’s Zhu Family. After escaping her family, she was pursued by assassins acting under the orders of her elder sister, Zhu Zhuyun, who intended to have her captured and returned. The pursuit left Zhu Zhuqing severely wounded and exhausted. 65 66

She collided with Lu Xiao while fleeing through Qinglin Town and pleaded for help before losing consciousness. Lu Xiao defeated her pursuers, then treated her injuries with medicine and bandages. Du Busi later confirmed the assassins’ connection to the Zhu Family and Zhu Zhuyun. 65 66

Having previously escaped and been captured multiple times, Zhu Zhuqing had come to see only darkness in her future. Lu Xiao’s intervention gave her someone she could trust and rely upon; when asked what she planned to do after escaping, she chose to accompany him. 66 67

Journey to Heaven Dou

Zhu Zhuqing joined Lu Xiao and Du Busi on their journey into the Star Dou Great Forest. Still recovering from her injuries, she struggled to keep pace, and Lu Xiao carried her through the forest. She remained worried for him during the battle against the sixty-thousand-year Crimson Gold Emperor Tiger and guarded him while he absorbed its soul ring. 67 68 69

Afterward, she traveled with Lu Xiao and Du Busi to Heaven Dou City. She trained for more than six hours each day during the journey and arrived at Soul Power Level 19, only one step from a breakthrough. 70

Training and Second Soul Ring

At Heaven Dou Royal Academy, Zhu Zhuqing was introduced to Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, Dugu Yan, and Ye Lingling. Though reserved, she accepted Xiao Wu’s welcome and began adapting to her new environment. 70

After a month of grueling training, Zhu Zhuqing reached Soul Power Level 20. Lu Xiao then escorted her to Sunset Forest to seek a second soul ring suited to her Hell Spirit Cat Martial Soul. 74

They located a roughly 900-year Shadow Civet, whose soul ring Zhu Zhuqing absorbed successfully. The creature also produced the rare Shadow Civet Right Claw Bone; despite initially refusing it, Zhu Zhuqing accepted the External Soul Bone after Lu Xiao explained its compatibility with her martial soul. The ring raised her to Level 22, and the soul bone advanced her to Level 23. 75 76

Appearance

Zhu Zhuqing has long black hair, cool black eyes, and a notably reserved expression. After arriving in Heaven Dou, she wears her hair in twin cat-ear buns with loose strands framing her face, along with a dark-purple leather combat outfit and a ribbon resembling a cat’s tail. 65 70

• Her initial appearance in Qinglin Town was disheveled and bloodied from the Zhu Family’s pursuit. 65 66
• When using her Hell Spirit Cat Martial Soul, she manifests black cat ears, a slender black tail, and altered eyes. 77
• She possesses two yellow soul rings after acquiring her second ring. 77

Personality

Zhu Zhuqing is quiet, guarded, and initially reluctant to engage in unnecessary conversation. Her cold demeanor stems from the fear, pressure, and repeated betrayal she endured within the Zhu Family. 66 70

Despite this, she is resolute and courageous. She insists on accompanying Lu Xiao into the Star Dou Great Forest despite the danger, and she commits herself intensely to cultivation after reaching Heaven Dou Royal Academy. 67 70 74

She develops strong trust and affection toward Lu Xiao because of his protection and support. Her concern for his safety becomes especially clear during the Crimson Gold Emperor Tiger hunt and later when Golden Crocodile Douluo confronts them. 68 69 77
