Gender	Male

Status	Alive 425
First Appearance	Chapter 3

Background

Leng Shiyi knew Shen Mo as a child and remembered him as a soft, sweet younger brother whom he had liked. Those memories became obscured by the behavior of the later “impostor,” whose indiscriminate pestering of the male leads made Leng Shiyi deeply disgusted 78 79.

After Shen Mo’s apparent change, Leng Shiyi joined Su Ze, Cui Yang, and Yang Xuan in treating him as an unknown variable. He supported keeping Shen Mo alive until they could determine what had happened, while concealing their earlier plans from Shen Yue 4 5. Though pushed into being a temporary captain, he became the person the group deferred to when decisions had to be made 5.

During their travels, he led supply operations, maintained order, and repeatedly restrained Yang Xuan from exposing the group’s secrets or provoking avoidable conflict 18 38. Shen Yue later explicitly identified him as her team’s captain when meeting Dawn 358 Base’s chief 232.

Leng Shiyi was among those able to hear Shen Mo’s inner thoughts while the Broken Godhead was active. He later lost that access after Shen Mo disabled the ability; the loss left him regretful 227 366.

Appearance

Leng Shiyi is characterized by a cold, blade-sharp gaze and a pale-eyed, icy presence that Shen Mo immediately associated with his ice ability 3 79.

• Maintains a consistently aloof, frosty expression.
• His eyes deepen to blue when he expends his power heavily 36.
• His demeanor is severe enough that even his cousin readily expects reprimands from him 33.

Personality

Leng Shiyi is practical, vigilant, and controlled. He assesses danger before acting, such as recognizing the abnormal safety of a survivor village and arranging a cautious reconnaissance rather than sending the entire group inside 184. As captain, he prioritizes routes, supplies, survival, and the group’s immediate safety 34 52.

His restraint is most visible around Yang Xuan. Leng Shiyi regularly silences, smacks, or redirects his impulsive cousin before he can start fights or reveal sensitive information, but also understands that Yang Xuan has no malicious intent 18 33 38.

Despite his detached manner, he is willing to exhaust his ability for others. During the sea crisis, he maintained and repaired an ice ship carrying survivors from multiple teams, then authorized the distribution of supplies under his own account 423.

He is emotionally guarded regarding Shen Mo. His favorability toward Shen Mo reached 85 before dropping to 80 after Shen Mo internally questioned his motives; Leng Shiyi denied any affection when confronted by Yang Xuan 227. Later, he silently watched the woman he loved leave with another man, suppressing his reaction rather than lashing out 259.

Abilities & Skills

Ice and Water Ability

Leng Shiyi can create, manipulate, and freeze water and ice. His ability is valuable for combat, utility, and large-scale protection 26 34.

• Condenses ice cups and fills them with water for the group 34.

Relationships

• Yang Xuan — His younger cousin. Leng Shiyi frequently disciplines Yang Xuan for reckless driving, impulsive remarks, and generally disruptive behavior, though he still looks after him 3 18 33 37.
• Shen Mo — Childhood acquaintance whose former impostor disgusted him. Leng Shiyi later develops an unwanted, unacknowledged liking for the changed Shen Mo and denies it when exposed 79 227.
• Shen Yue — Teammate whose safety is central to the group’s early decisions. She recognizes Leng Shiyi as the team captain 5 232.
• Su Ze — Fellow male lead and frequent source of teasing. Su Ze tries to assign Leng Shiyi the task of gathering information from Shen Mo, which Leng Shiyi refuses 5.
• Cui Yang — Fellow ability user and trusted reconnaissance partner. The two investigate the survivor village together and coordinate during missions 184 186.
• The unnamed woman he loves — Leng Shiyi is left heartbroken when he sees her depart with another man after her parents approve their relationship 259.

Story Role / Major Arcs

Early Survivor Team

Leng Shiyi is introduced as the cold-eyed member of Shen Yue’s group and Yang Xuan’s cousin 3. When Shen Mo’s behavior abruptly changes, he helps decide to keep Shen Mo alive, observe him, and avoid alerting Shen Yue to the group’s suspicions 4 5.

Supply Runs and Liu Qun Incident

As captain, Leng Shiyi guides the group through supply missions, Mutant Beast encounters, and conflicts with hostile survivors 34 36. When Liu Qun attempts to force the group into serving him, Leng Shiyi outwardly agrees as part of the group’s strategy 43.

Village Investigation

Leng Shiyi recognizes that a village with many living people but no zombies or Mutant Beasts is dangerously abnormal. He and Cui Yang investigate while ordering the rest of the group to stay behind and remain vigilant 184 186.

Feelings Exposed

Shen Mo’s favorability scan reveals Leng Shiyi’s score of 85. His score falls to 80 after Shen Mo doubts his motives, and Leng Shiyi responds to Yang Xuan’s direct question with an emphatic denial 227.

Coalition Mission and Sea Battle

After the original team disbands, Leng Shiyi later joins the wider coalition mission alongside Cui Yang, Shen Yue, and Yang Xuan 268 366. During the sea battle, he creates an ice ship for stranded survivors, continually repairs it under attack, and manages the shared supplies despite near-exhaustion 423 424.
