Background / History

Jun Zhangjian established a record of five million jin on the Mount Tai Ancient Stele, a feat Lan Qingya used to praise him while criticizing Jun Linglong for rejecting his recruitment offer. Linglong considered him talented but unworthy of the allegiance she reserved for someone capable of suppressing an entire era. 3

He emerged from seclusion as a Divine Palace Realm cultivator after Lan Qingya sought his help against Jun Xiaoyao and Jun Linglong. Rather than retaliate against the Divine Child, Zhangjian struck Lan Qingya for provoking someone protected by Jun Wuhui’s lineage and the Eighteenth Ancestor. 7 8

Zhangjian brought Lan Qingya to Heavenly Emperor Palace for a thorn-bearing apology and surrendered a Yuan Heaven Supreme Token to appease Jun Xiaoyao. He then confirmed that Xiaoyao possessed the Desolate Ancient Sacred Body. 8 9

At Jun Xiaoyao’s request, Zhangjian agreed to spar with him. He used the Nine Swords of the Rising Sun and the Purple Emperor Sword Art, but Jun Xiaoyao shattered his fingers, broke his sword techniques, and defeated him in three exchanges. Zhangjian later expelled Lan Qingya from the Jun Family, blaming her for provoking the conflict and damaging his standing. 9 10

He attended Jun Xiaoyao’s tenth birthday banquet, where the public announcement of Xiaoyao as Zero Sequence confirmed that the Divine Child stood above all ten Sequences. Zhangjian did not oppose the appointment, having personally experienced Xiaoyao’s strength. 24 30

When Lan Qingya reappeared as Long Haotian’s slave girl, Zhangjian regarded her defection as a betrayal and humiliation. Jun Xiaoyao’s intervention protected his dignity, leading Zhangjian to view the Divine Child as a benefactor and openly defend him against the Primordial Royal Clan. 32 33

Appearance

Jun Zhangjian is a black-robed young swordsman whose presence is compared to a divine sword capable of cleaving the heavens. 7

• Black hair and deep black eyes. 7
• Carries a longsword on his back. 7
• Possesses a sharp, intimidating sword-like bearing. 7

Personality

Zhangjian is politically cautious and understands the hierarchy within the Jun Family. Although Lan Qingya had been favored among his followers, he immediately abandoned her grievance once he learned she had offended Jun Xiaoyao, prioritizing his Sequence position and survival. 7 8

His defeat by Jun Xiaoyao humbles him, but he responds pragmatically rather than nurturing open resentment. After Jun Xiaoyao protects his reputation during Long Haotian’s provocation, Zhangjian becomes sincerely loyal and repays that assistance by fighting beside Xiaoyao’s faction. 10 32 33
