Personality

Luo Cheng is a battle maniac who seeks powerful opponents and openly relishes dangerous combat. He guards Chen Chen during a breakthrough because he wants to challenge Chen Chen at full strength, rather than exploit a vulnerable moment. 93

His impulsiveness contrasts with Chen Chen's caution: while scouting the Abyss of Fallen Gods, Luo Cheng engages enemies at the western entrance and kills two Foundation Establishment cultivators rather than withdraw cleanly. 139 141 Despite this wild nature, he obeys Chen Chen's orders, accepts assignments he would not personally choose, and grows into an effective commander. 206 222 333
