Background

Gu Yunxi and Zuo Yi were each other's first love. Bao'er was conceived during a high-school reunion, but Gu Yunxi kept the pregnancy from him and used mental suggestion to erase part of his memory after their separation. She later expressed remorse for manipulating him while he was still an ordinary person 546 552.

A member of a minor branch of the Gu Family, Gu Yunxi became a target of Gu Hongsheng's schemes to please Fan Yunlong. Rather than submit, she escaped abroad. Sophie Roland sheltered her in Orson, but a powerful admirer made even that unsafe; Gu Yunxi chose to enter the Wilds World and go to Winter City so she could become strong enough to refuse anyone 483 484 517.

In Winter City, she joined the garrison's Arad Temple expedition because her psychic gifts could help unravel its secrets. She remained separated from Bao'er and burdened by worry for Chen Wan, her closest friend and Bao'er's caretaker 544 546.

Appearance

Gu Yunxi is tall and graceful, with jade-white skin, a beautiful face, and an outstanding bearing. Zuo Yi recognizes her immediately even after years apart and across worlds 543.

• Often wears practical hunting attire during field operations in the Wilds World 543.
• Her appearance is described as resembling Bao'er's, particularly their eyes 517.
• Possesses a calm, refined beauty that draws persistent admirers, including George in Winter City 543.

Personality

Gu Yunxi is outwardly gentle but inwardly resilient, proud, and fiercely independent. She fled rather than become a bargaining chip in her family's political arrangements, then deliberately sought strength in the Wilds World so that she could decide her own future 517 546.

She is loyal to those who have treated her well. Even when Zuo Yi overwhelms the Winter City expedition, she asks him to spare her companions because they had helped her establish herself there 544. Her independence is tempered by guilt over leaving Bao'er and by a determined desire to become a good mother after returning home 551 552.

Abilities & Skills

Psychic Abilities

Gu Yunxi is a C-Rank psychic Transcendent whose powers are unusually versatile 552.

• Telepathic communication — Can communicate with intelligent creatures regardless of language barriers.
• Hostility reduction — Can reduce a target's hostility toward her.
• Mental suggestion — Can influence others' thoughts; she once used it to erase part of Zuo Yi's memories 552.
• Mental Storm — An offensive psychic attack acquired after advancing in the Wilds World 552.
• Pathfinding intuition — Cannot become lost and can use mental perception to identify the correct route, making her especially useful in mazes and ruins 552.

Swordsmanship and Concealed Weapons

Gu Yunxi is an accomplished swordswoman whose skill approaches that of a swordsmanship master 552.

• Uses reflected sunlight from her blade to disrupt an opponent's vision before attacking 562.
• Throws diamond-shaped darts enhanced and controlled with psychic power; their trajectories can collide and change in midair 562.
• Combines sword pressure, psychic attacks, and concealed weapons in layered assaults rather than relying on raw force 562.
• Studies the Starry Sky Meditation Method, Knight Body Tempering Art, and Faston Court Cross-Swordsmanship to strengthen her close-quarters combat ability 606.

Equipment

• Charm Armor — Black rune-covered bracers that transform into soft full-body armor. It provides powerful defense, environmental concealment, and enhanced speed and agility; it was taken from a Legendary assassin in Sadea World 563.
• Protective Necklace — A rune-refined Treasure Tree leaf necklace bearing Zuo Yi's True Name Imprint. Within Hang City, it can protect her and grant access to the Teleportation Array and Agu and Aguai's functions 555.
• Spatial Ring — Lets her store and retrieve items with mental power, though repeated use drains her mental energy 703.
• Frostveil — A longsword Zuo Yi forged for her with Immortality, Swift Edge, Penetration, and Frost runes, then consecrated with Holy Light to gain an evil-breaking attribute 634.
• Longsword and throwing darts — Her personal weapons, restored to her by Zuo Yi after her return from the Wilds World 562.

Relationships

• Zuo Yi — Former first love and Bao'er's father. He searches across Europe and the Wilds World to bring her home; their relationship gradually rebuilds through shared responsibility for Bao'er and renewed intimacy 517 546 626.
• Bao'er — Her biological daughter. Bao'er initially struggles to accept a mother she has never known, but eventually accepts Gu Yunxi fully 551 564.
• Chen Wan — Closest friend and Bao'er's longtime caretaker. Gu Yunxi entrusted Chen Wan with protecting Bao'er before leaving the country 488 552.
• Gu Kai and Zhang Yun — Her parents. They emigrated to Baparo partly to escape threats from the Gu and Fan families; Gu Yunxi carries lasting guilt over the burden her resistance placed on them 564.
• Gu Fangfei — A protective aunt and confidante who helped Gu Yunxi escape the Gu Family's schemes and later reunites with her after Zuo Yi brings her home 488 548.
• Sophie Roland — Her close university friend and former protector in Orson 515 517.
• George — A Winter City admirer whose persistent pursuit she repeatedly rejects 543.
• Shang Yulin — Zuo Yi's senior sister and a fellow Transcendent. Their first meeting is polite but subtly cautious as each gauges the other's connection to Zuo Yi 554.

Story Role / Major Arcs

Escape from the Gu and Fan Families

Gu Yunxi's refusal to be used in Gu Hongsheng's arrangement with Fan Yunlong forces her to flee abroad. Fan Yunlong remains obsessed with finding her, while Gu Hongsheng investigates her whereabouts in hopes of delivering her back to him 483 484.

Winter City and the Arad Temple

After Sophie helps her reach Winter City, Gu Yunxi grows stronger and joins the expedition exploring the supposed Arad Temple. Her special psychic talent earns her a place in the group, but she becomes trapped between its obligations and the danger surrounding the expedition 517 544.

Reunion with Zuo Yi

Zuo Yi locates Gu Yunxi at the temple after searching for her across worlds. When the expedition threatens him, she attempts to protect him despite believing herself outmatched; Zuo Yi reveals his Alpha status, frees her from her obligations, and takes her back to Dragon City Fortress 543 544 545.

Return to Hang City

Returning with almost none of her former possessions, Gu Yunxi begins rebuilding her life in Hang City. She accepts a teaching role at Apocalypse Academy so she can remain close to Bao'er, while slowly earning her daughter's trust and rejoining Zuo Yi's household 548 552 553.

Strengthening as Bao'er's Protector

Zuo Yi trains Gu Yunxi, restores her weapons, and equips her with the Charm Armor so that she can protect Bao'er when he is absent. Though she remains C-Rank, her equipment and training give her combat capabilities far above her nominal rank 562 563.

Rescue of Her Parents

When Gu Kai and Zhang Yun disappear after their home in Baparo is burned down, Gu Yunxi is devastated. Zuo Yi immediately travels across the Pacific to find them, ultimately rescuing them and helping reunite the family 564 565 570 585.
