Background

Yun Zhi is Yun Yun, the Sect Master of the Misty Cloud Sect. Though she has cultivated alone for decades, she conceals her identity beneath black robes when entering the Magic Beast Mountain Range. 21 29 100

She enters the mountain range to obtain an Amethyst Spirit Crystal from the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King. When negotiations fail, she battles the sixth-tier beast from noon until sunset. 22

Appearance

Yun Zhi is a graceful woman with noble, exquisite features. Her injuries leave her face pale, adding to the vulnerable impression she makes while recovering in Xiao Yu’s cave. 23

• Often wears loose black robes to conceal her identity. 20 21
• Her disguise includes a cool, slightly hoarse voice that prevents Xiao Yu from recognizing her as a woman at first. 21
• Once her cultivation returns, she carries an imposing, unquestionable majesty even when dressed as before. 26

Personality

Initially, Yun Zhi is aloof, guarded, and wary of Xiao Yu. She reacts angrily when she wakes during his attempt to treat her wounds, insisting that she handle the treatment herself despite her sealed Dou Qi. 23

Her time with Xiao Yu reveals a more considerate side. She accepts his care, instructs him in cultivating the Purple Cloud Wings, temporarily empowers him for the Lion King’s cave, and later treats his wounds before departing. 25 26 27 29

As Misty Cloud Sect Master, she is fair and decisive. She stops Yun Leng from detaining Xiao Yan without concrete evidence, preserving Xiao Yan’s safe departure from the sect. 100 101

Story Role / Major Arcs

Magic Beast Mountain Range

Using the name Yun Zhi, she encounters Xiao Yu while searching for the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King. Xiao Yu initially fails to identify her and mistakenly asks Yun Yun about Yun Yun’s whereabouts. 20 21

After negotiations with the Lion King fail, she fights it for the Amethyst Spirit Crystal. The battle ends with Yun Zhi badly injured, her Dou Qi sealed, and Xiao Yu bringing her to his hiding place. 22 23

Recovery and the Lion King’s Cave

While dependent on Xiao Yu’s care, Yun Zhi gradually becomes more comfortable around him. She helps him master the Purple Cloud Wings and, after restoring her own power, provides the energy necessary for him to enter the Lion King’s cave. 24 25 26 27

After Xiao Yu is injured fighting the young lion king, Yun Zhi rescues him, treats his wounds, takes the Amethyst Spirit Crystal, and leaves him the Sea Heart Soft Armor and several cultivation manuals before departing. 29

Desert Reunion

Yun Zhi later encounters Xiao Yu while he is using a secret technique to pose as a Dou Wang. She recognizes him despite his changed strength and is concerned that he has been abandoned as a sacrificial pawn. 78

When Xiao Yu reveals himself and confesses his feelings, Yun Zhi is left flustered enough to drop her weapon. She offers to introduce him to a place to cultivate in the Jia Ma Empire, but he declines and insists on cultivating independently. 78

Misty Cloud Sect Intervention

During Xiao Yan’s departure from the Misty Cloud Sect after defeating Nalan Yanran, Yun Zhi stops Yun Leng from detaining him on unproven accusations. Before leaving, she tells Xiao Yan to inform Xiao Yu that she will wait for him at the Misty Cloud Sect. 100 101

Trivia

• Xiao Yu’s system records Yun Yun’s favorability toward him as 75, placing it in the “Trust” range. 29
• Yun Zhi had originally considered taking Xiao Yu as a disciple and bringing him to the Misty Cloud Sect. 29
