Background

Lei Yanche came from Anye City as the Lei Clan's eldest young master. Before entering Morning Sky Academy, he supported Luo Cheng and Yun Mengyu with resources; Luo Cheng's storage ring and much of its contents originally came from Lei Yanche. He joined the academy partly to secure the protection and influence of a powerful faction. 485

After becoming Qing Mo's student, Lei Yanche devoted himself to alchemy. In half a month, he memorized the names and properties of the Alchemy Palace's medicinal herbs, received instruction in pill refinement, had his Origin Heartfire strengthened, and learned how to produce Pill Halos. 486

Qing Mo later showed him a future in which Luo Cheng and Yun Mengyu betrayed him. Rather than accept that outcome, Lei Yanche chose to work with Qing Mo's behind-the-scenes guidance to alter his fate and retaliate against them. 486

Appearance

Lei Yanche is described as a handsome and spirited young man with sword-like brows and starry eyes. His appearance and reputation as an academy prodigy draw attention in his hometown. 593

• Often wears luxurious robes as the Lei Clan's eldest young master. 601
• Can change into ancient-style attire and apply glamours to companions when entering unfamiliar worlds. 558
• Carries himself with a calm, refined demeanor even when confronting stronger opponents. 599 736

Personality

Lei Yanche is diligent, ambitious, and highly receptive to Qing Mo's instruction. His initial limitations in alchemy are overcome through relentless study rather than natural talent alone. 486

He is deeply protective of people he considers his own. He risks his life for An Nanyue, provides his clan with pills and cultivation resources, and guides younger relatives who seek his advice. 496 594 603

However, he is also calculating and ruthless toward enemies. He manipulates Luo Cheng's ambitions, uses Yun Mengyu as an embedded agent, hires Dark Valley to expose Liu Xueyan's scheme, and shows little mercy toward the Ye Family remnants. 595 597 603 631
