Background
Jiang Nannan grew up with Jiang Mu under Mother Jiang’s care. Although Jiang Mu was younger and had joined the household after being picked up by Mother Jiang, the two lived as siblings. When Jiang Mu declined to attend an academy, Jiang Nannan chose to remain with him; they hunted soul beasts, sold their gains, and lived quietly at home. 1
She accompanies Jiang Mu to the outskirts of Star Dou Forest while he searches for his third soul ring. After a bet over whether he would call her “Big Sister,” she kisses him, delighted that he finally uses the title she wants. 1
During the Iron Fist Gorilla incident, Jiang Nannan fights beside Jiang Mu and is deeply angered when Bei Bei returns only to take Tang Ya away, leaving the siblings against a five-thousand-year soul beast. She later accepts Tang Ya’s apology only reluctantly and remains wary of her. 4 5 6
After leaving the forest, Jiang Nannan travels with Jiang Mu and Tang Ya to Shrek City, assists Tang Ya during her recovery and soul-ring absorption, and supports Jiang Mu’s plans to build a faction. 9 14 25 At Shrek Academy, she declines enrollment and returns home to inform Mother Jiang that they are safe, receiving a cultivation technique and defensive blood essence from Jiang Mu before departing. 26
After spending five days away, Jiang Nannan returns to Shrek Academy with Tang Ya. She is initially relieved to find Jiang Mu unharmed, but becomes hurt and suspicious after learning that both Tang Ya and Wang Dong’er have become romantically involved with him during her absence. 78 79 Following Jiang Mu’s confession, she admits that she likes him and accepts their relationship. 79
Jiang Nannan later accompanies Tang Ya in meeting Zhang Lexuan, despite her uncertainty about the elder student’s motives. 82 During an outing with Jiang Mu, she urges him to withdraw from Shrek Academy and establish their own faction, believing the academy offers them little value. Jiang Mu agrees with her proposal, and she subsequently joins discussions concerning the practical requirements and risks of founding the new force. 89 91
While Jiang Mu is away seeking powerful support, Jiang Nannan brings Mother Jiang to safety and establishes a storefront in the Star Luo Empire with Tang Ya. She keeps in contact with Jiang Mu, assuring him that they are safe and urging him to return rather than face danger alone. 101
Appearance
Jiang Nannan is a beautiful young woman with long golden wavy hair and a rabbit-ear accessory. Her clothing emphasizes her long legs, including a distinctive single white thigh-high stocking and short boots. 1
- Long, golden, wavy hair. 1
- Rabbit-ear hair accessory, which Jiang Mu confirms is decorative rather than a soul-beast trait. 1 79
- Long legs; one is clad in a white thigh-high stocking. 1
- Occasionally wears black thigh-high stockings. 87
- Often carries herself with the confidence of an older sister, despite becoming bashful when Jiang Mu teases her. 1
Personality
Jiang Nannan is intensely protective of Jiang Mu. Her foremost concern during his soul-ring absorption is whether he is injured rather than what skill he gained, and she repeatedly urges him to be more cautious after Bei Bei’s betrayal. 5 6 Even after returning from home, she first checks whether Jiang Mu has been bullied or injured before questioning the changes in his life at the academy. 78 When he is away, she sends worried messages but tells him she will not rush him if he is occupied. 101
She is also jealous and possessive regarding Jiang Mu’s attention. Tang Ya’s interest in him immediately puts Jiang Nannan on guard, and she openly rejects Xu Sanshi’s advances before kissing Jiang Mu to make her position clear. 2 3 13 Her jealousy becomes especially apparent after discovering Jiang Mu’s relationships with Tang Ya and Wang Dong’er, as she fears being replaced after leaving him alone for only a few days. 78 79 Though raised as siblings, their relationship is repeatedly identified as non-blood-related, and Jiang Nannan ultimately admits her feelings for Jiang Mu. 9 23 26 79
Practical and financially cautious, Jiang Nannan worries about unnecessary spending and the substantial costs of founding a faction. Jiang Mu considers her reliable enough to manage the faction’s future finances. 15 16 25 Her concern extends beyond expenses: she presses Jiang Mu to explain any dangerous plans involving powerful experts and later takes the initiative in proposing that they abandon Shrek Academy to build their own force. 89 91 She subsequently helps Tang Ya establish a storefront in the Star Luo Empire. 101
Her bluntness extends beyond money. She challenges Tang Ya’s claims about the Tang Sect’s decline, rejects the powerless sect’s recruitment offer, and directly calls Xu Sanshi’s intentions disgusting. 3 4 10 13 When Xu Sanshi later attempts to approach her through a proposed Martial Soul Fusion Skill, she again refuses him decisively and takes Jiang Mu’s hand. 80
