Background / History

Yue Guan was already a trusted Spirit Hall Titled Douluo during Qian Chenzhou's early years. He maintained a flower garden near the Offering Hall and joined the hall's recurring family dinners with Qian Daoliu, Qian Xunji, Qian Chenzhou, and the other offerings 5.

He later accompanied Bibi Dong on her soul-beast hunt after she became a Soul Emperor, acting alongside Ghost under Qian Chenzhou's instructions 22. During the confrontation with Tang Hao and Tang Xiao, Yue Guan and Ghost deployed their joint domain to lock down the battlefield, enabling Qian Xunji's attack to continue unhindered 32.

Yue Guan joined Qian Chenzhou's expedition into Sunset Forest to locate Dugu Bo. His prior conflict with Dugu Bo made him uniquely able to recognize the poisoner's trail by its faint fishy-sweet scent, allowing the group to locate Dugu Bo's refuge 37 39. After Dugu Bo submitted, Yue Guan and Ghost remained behind to guard the Ice Fire Mandarin Duck Pot's herb garden 41.

Qian Chenzhou later rewarded Yue Guan with the Auspicious Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, explaining that consuming it would evolve his flower-based Martial Soul and break through its existing limitations. Yue Guan accepted despite his deep attachment to flowers and swore absolute loyalty 47.

Personality

Yue Guan is intensely devoted to flowers and medicinal herbs. The prospect of consuming the Auspicious Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum to evolve his Martial Soul visibly pains him, yet he accepts the sacrifice for greater strength 47.

He is expressive, eager to prove his worth, and prone to flattering Qian Chenzhou. His excitement at locating Dugu Bo's trail contrasts with Ghost's more reserved demeanor 39. Despite his personal quirks and longstanding hostility toward Dugu Bo, he follows Spirit Hall's hierarchy without hesitation 37 41.

Abilities & Skills

Floral Martial Soul

Yue Guan possesses a flower-based Martial Soul whose incomplete form is described as having flowers without leaves. Qian Chenzhou identifies this as a low-grade state and provides an herb intended to evolve it 47.

• The Auspicious Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum is meant to evolve his Martial Soul and improve his cultivation potential 47.
• His expertise with flowers and plants contributes to his interest in rare herbs, though he is initially careless enough to enter Dugu Bo's poison territory without antidote pills 40.

Bipolar Stillness Domain

Yue Guan can combine his power with Ghost to create the Bipolar Stillness Domain 32.

• Their combined eighteen Soul Rings establish a black-and-white domain that halts conflict throughout the affected area 32.
• Qian Xunji remains unaffected by the domain, allowing his ninth Soul Skill to continue against Tang Hao 32.
• The domain requires balance between Yue Guan and Ghost's Soul Power; their similar Martial Soul quality and cultivation reduce the risk of either dominating the fusion 29.

Golden Auspicious Holy Light

Yue Guan can activate the Seventh Soul Skill: Golden Auspicious Holy Light 33.

Tracking and Reconnaissance

Yue Guan is capable of field reconnaissance and tracking.

• He traced Dugu Bo by following the increasingly distinct fishy-sweet odor of poison carried through Sunset Forest's air 39.
• He competes with Ghost to demonstrate his usefulness during reconnaissance assignments 39.

Relationships

• Ghost — Longtime partner and fellow Spirit Hall Titled Douluo. Their Martial Soul Fusion produces the Bipolar Stillness Domain; Ghost considers their bond unusually close but balanced 29 32.
• Qian Chenzhou — Young Master whom Yue Guan serves with increasing devotion. Qian Chenzhou rewards him with the Auspicious Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum and promises a stronger future for Spirit Hall 39 47.
• Dugu Bo — Old rival. Yue Guan once attempted to recruit him for Spirit Hall; Dugu Bo refused, humiliated him, and escaped after the two fought 37.
• Golden Crocodile Douluo — Senior Spirit Hall authority who commands Yue Guan during the Sunset Forest expedition 38.
• Bibi Dong — Fellow Spirit Hall member whom Yue Guan accompanies on missions and treats cautiously as Qian Chenzhou's favored companion 22 39.
