Background / History
Han Feng was Yao Chen's adopted son and disciple. Although he publicly invoked Yao Chen's name and legacy, he personally killed his master; the crime became a central vulnerability once Yang Chen learned of it. 3 56
He established Maple City and built substantial influence in the Black-Corner Region through his status as the Medicine Emperor. He cultivated ties with dangerous experts—including the Gold and Silver Elders, Yuan Yi, Fan Lao, and Ban Lao—and planned to join forces against Jia Nan Academy to seize its Heavenly Flame. 56 62
Han Feng had also sought to recruit regional factions, but the Heavenly Yin Sect and Rakshasa Sect remained wary of his vindictive nature, incomplete breakthrough to the Dou Zong realm, and hostility toward Jia Nan Academy. Yang Chen's arrival shifted these factions toward True Lord Hall instead. 63 64 65
Appearance
Han Feng is a handsome man around thirty with shoulder-length black hair, thin lips, and a cold, stern bearing. A faint medicinal fragrance accompanies him. 56
- Wears a green alchemist's robe. 56
- Bears a cauldron emblem with six golden ripples, identifying him as a sixth-tier alchemist. 56
- His thin lips and cold expression give him a harsh, mean-spirited appearance when angered. 59
Personality
Han Feng is calculating, proud, and highly protective of his own interests. He initially lowered his stance toward Yang Chen because he suspected Yang Chen had the backing of an even stronger master, but he chose to fight once public humiliation and the expectations of his allies made retreat difficult. 56 58
He is notoriously petty and vengeful, a reputation that discouraged independent factions from trusting him. When cornered, he relies on negotiation, promises of benefits, and political pressure rather than accepting an unfavorable outcome outright. 58 61 63 64

Story Role / Major Arcs
Maple City Conflict
Han Feng intervenes when Yang Chen defeats Yuan Yi, hoping to protect his associate while avoiding a direct clash with a seemingly well-backed alchemist. Yang Chen identifies him as a master-slayer and attacks him alongside the Gold and Silver Elders. 56
Han Feng leads a coalition of six Dou Emperor experts against Yang Chen. Unable to overcome him and concerned by Jia Nan Academy observers, he calls off the battle and seeks a negotiated resolution. 57 58 59
Forced Compensation
After Zi Yan refuses Han Feng's offered treasures and identifies a more valuable item in Maple City, Han Feng refuses to yield his medicinal cauldron. Yang Chen's continued pressure and display of further power force Han Feng to surrender the Heaven Cauldron and additional compensation. 60 61
Rivalry with True Lord Hall
Han Feng remains a looming rival after Yang Chen begins establishing True Lord Hall in the Black-Corner Region. His influence over Maple City, the Gold and Silver Elders, Ban Lao, Fan Lao, and potentially the Black Emperor Sect makes him a continuing threat. 62 64 65
Trivia
