Feng Sui

Biodata

Power Progression

Background

Feng Sui was the chief of the tribe that became the Wind-Fire Tribe after Feng Xu created surnames and personal names for its members. Feng Xu named him for the tribe’s defining use of fire, while the collective surname “Feng” reflected the relationship between wind and flame. 3

After witnessing Feng Xu’s advances in pottery, writing, and organization, Feng Sui publicly appointed him the tribe’s wise man and ordered the tribe to follow his arrangements. He nevertheless remained responsible for the community’s security, staying behind when Feng Xu and Feng Xi departed to trade because former tribespeople might return to raid the settlement. 3 4

As the tribe expanded, Feng Sui developed practical expertise independent of Feng Xu. He improved brick firing to an eighty-percent success rate and took charge of the larger pottery kiln while Feng Xu focused on new projects. 23

Feng Sui also retained knowledge of the region’s earlier settlement history. He recalled that approximately three hundred tribes had originally been assigned to the area and knew the locations of more than a dozen small tribes farther north and west. This information helped inform Feng Xu’s plans for population expansion after the Wild Boar Ridge campaign. 31

When the Lin, Marsh, Red Iron, and Lukun Tribes sought to merge with the Wind-Fire Tribe, Feng Sui brought their proposal to Feng Xu. The resulting arrangement united the five major tribes as the East Wilderness Tribe, with Feng Sui as chief and the other four chiefs as elders assisting him. Vermilion Ridge became the temporary main city, while the original settlements remained developing outlying branches. 46 47

Personality

Feng Sui is protective, straightforward, and strongly duty-bound. His concern for Feng Xu repeatedly conflicts with Feng Xu’s willingness to take risks, but he accepts difficult responsibilities when the tribe needs him to remain behind. 4

He is cautious about threats beyond the tribe’s current strength. Although Feng Xu viewed Wild Boar Ridge as a valuable future base, Feng Sui warned that a terrifying roar heard there sixty years earlier had once made him consider abandoning the area. 24

As the tribe prospers, Feng Sui becomes an effective and welcoming administrator. He warmly integrates newcomers, oversees work during Feng Xu’s seclusion, and readily offers Wind-Fire construction assistance to the Central Wilderness Tribe. 34 43

His forthrightness contrasts with Feng Xu’s more guarded diplomacy. During Qu Shan’s armory visit, Feng Sui nearly identified Feng Xu as the tribe’s artifact refiner before Feng Xu interrupted him. Qu Shan later sought out Feng Sui for a private nighttime conversation, approaching the chief as a more candid source of information. 44

Feng Sui’s protective attachment does not prevent him from supporting Feng Xu’s wider responsibilities. He agrees to let Feng Xu travel to the Central Wilderness and urges him to use his abilities for the entire Human Race, suggesting that he can return if the new environment proves unsuitable. 46

His generosity is accompanied by increasing political awareness. When arranging aid for the Central Wilderness, he treats its defense against the Demon Race as a contribution deserving repayment rather than viewing grain solely as a commercial resource. 59

Relationships

• Feng Xu — The tribe’s wise man and Feng Sui’s most trusted adviser. Feng Sui grants him authority over tribal affairs, protects his seclusion, and regards his Earth Immortal breakthrough with gratitude and admiration.

Feng Sui nevertheless encourages him to serve the wider Human Race and joins the farewell when he departs. 3 24 25 46 48

The brothers share breakthrough guidance with Lin Sen, help forge the Redfire Saber, and both reach Mid Earth Immortal. 3 4 24 26 27 44
• Feng Ling — His mother, who received her name alongside Feng Sui and Feng Xi when Feng Xu established the tribe’s naming system. 3
• Iron Mountain — Leader of the Red Iron Tribe and an ally in the Pig Demon battle; he combines his heavy strikes with Feng Sui’s enlarged assault. He later accompanies Feng Sui and Feng Xu into the cavern containing the Earth-Vein Spirit Pool. After the tribal merger, the former Red Iron chief becomes one of the elders assisting Feng Sui. 12 29 32 47
• Qu Shan — Central Wilderness envoy hosted by Feng Sui at the Wind-Fire Tribe. Feng Sui offers construction assistance and supports cooperation over Blood Pool cultivation.
