Mid-Stage Golden Immortal 6 Recognized as the Ice-Scaled Tribe’s foremost young prodigy; defeated seventeen Realm Guard members consecutively before the Black Tortoise Sea-Calming Formation suppressed him. 6
Early Great Principle Golden Immortal 20 Served as the expedition’s principal combat anchor; his exceptional defenses gave Guixu’s treasure-seeking force confidence that it could retreat safely. 20

Background

Han Jue was born into the Ice-Scaled Tribe, a combat-oriented Guixu clan whose members cultivate by absorbing the Northern Sea’s frigid aura. As the tribe’s young master, he became nearly unmatched among Guixu’s younger generation while still at the Mid-Stage Golden Immortal realm. 6

Initially, Han Jue rejected the Sea Spirit Clan’s administration of Guixu, believing that combat strength—not institutional responsibility—should determine authority. At the Martial Practice Arena, he defeated seventeen Realm Guard members and seriously injured a Sea Spirit cultivator while openly challenging Guixu’s order. 6

Lu Chen suppressed him through the Black Tortoise Sea-Calming Formation and imposed a punishment: Han Jue would join the Realm Guard at its lowest rank. He accepted the sentence as a chance to learn what it meant to protect Guixu, apologized to the injured cultivator, and committed himself to guarding the realm. 6

Appearance

Han Jue wears ice-blue battle armor, and cold-glimmering scales grow across his back. He is commonly armed with a spear. 6

  • Ice scales inherited from the Ice-Scaled Tribe. 6
  • Cold, ice-blue aura associated with his bloodline and spear techniques. 41
  • Often carries a dark spear during patrols, training, and battle. 10 41

Personality

Han Jue is blunt, competitive, and quick to seek a fight with any opponent he considers strong. His early pride led him to mistake raw strength for the right to rule, but his suppression in Guixu transformed that instinct into a desire to defend its order. 6

He remains impulsive and provocative, particularly in his long-running rivalry with Ao Lie. However, he is capable of restraint when Guixu’s rules or safety require it; he leads formations, accepts responsibility after mistakes, and places external threats above personal grudges. 28 40 41

Despite his harsh disciplinary style, Han Jue is quietly compassionate toward Guixu’s children. As the Young Clans Court’s disciplinarian, he punishes misconduct but secretly gives spirit fruits to the children afterward. 46

Abilities & Skills

Ice-Scale Bloodline

  • Activates his Ice-Scale Bloodline to strengthen his combat power. 6 41
  • Can project freezing force through his spear, forming frost over an opponent’s body. 41
  • His bloodline and cultivation were insufficient to resist the Black Tortoise Sea-Calming Formation’s suppression. 6

Spear Combat

Han Jue is a direct, aggressive spear fighter and one of Guixu’s strongest young combatants.

  • Defeated seventeen Realm Guard members in succession at the Martial Practice Arena. 6
  • Used his spear as the primary offensive force against Youdu’s demonic shadows. 41
  • Nearly killed Ao Lie while under Heart Demon influence, demonstrating the danger of his killing intent when his judgment is compromised. 40

Formation Command

  • Trained with Ao Lie to learn Dragon Clan formation tactics and improve the Realm Guard’s defenses at Dragon-Suppressing Pass. 28
  • Commanded the Realm Guard’s Black Tortoise Formation to protect Guixu Academy’s disciples against Youdu. 41

Physical Combat

Equipment

  • Ice-blue battle armor — Worn during his confrontation at the Martial Practice Arena. 6

Relationships

  • Lu Chen / Mysterious Abyss Emperor — Han Jue’s sovereign and reforming influence. Lu Chen’s formation suppression ended Han Jue’s challenge to Guixu’s order and redirected him into service as a guardian. 6
  • Ao Lie — Rival, fellow gate defender, and trusted comrade. They regularly provoke one another into sparring, but cooperate in defending Guixu and confronting external threats. 10 25 41
  • Feng Li — Fellow member of Guixu’s younger leadership. Han Jue fights beside her against Youdu and works with her in the Young Clans Court, though she rejects his overly harsh disciplinary suggestions. 41 46
  • Lin Yue — Fellow Guixu leader whom Han Jue repeatedly challenges to fight. Lin Yue’s steady priorities contrast sharply with Han Jue’s impatience. 36
  • Lan ShuangGuixu’s administrator who oversees the order Han Jue once challenged. She later assigns him responsibility for discipline at the Young Clans Court. 6 46
  • Gonggong — A physically overwhelming sparring partner. Han Jue admires Gonggong’s strength and develops a combative, playful rapport with him. 107
  • Guixu’s children — Han Jue serves as their stern disciplinarian, while secretly caring for punished children through small acts of kindness. 46

Story Role / Major Arcs

Challenge to Guixu’s Order

Han Jue’s challenge at the Martial Practice Arena establishes Guixu’s foundational rule: sparring is permitted, but violence cannot be used to dominate others. His punishment becomes the beginning of his service in the Realm Guard. 6

Dragon-Suppressing Pass and the Northern Dark Water Palace

Han Jue becomes a defender of Dragon-Suppressing Pass, where his rivalry with Ao Lie begins. He later leads elite Realm Guard members on Guixu’s first major expedition for the Black Tortoise Sea-Calming Pearl. 10 20

Defense Against the Dragon Clan

During Guixu’s preparations for a possible Dragon Clan attack, Han Jue trains repeatedly under Ao Lie’s guidance. Though initially defeated seven times in formation simulations, he endures for half an hour on the eighth attempt using the Realm Guard’s combined formation. 28

Heart Demon Crisis and Youdu’s Infiltration

Youdu exploits Han Jue’s fear that the Dragon Clan will destroy Guixu, driving him into a Heart Demon state in which he attacks Ao Lie. Lu Chen’s Mind-Cleansing Tortoise Cry restores his clarity; Han Jue accepts responsibility and joins Ao Lie, Feng Li, and Lin Yue in fighting Youdu. 40 41

Young Clans Court

Han Jue becomes responsible for discipline among the Dragon, Phoenix, Qilin, and smaller-clan children sheltered by Guixu. Though initially overwhelmed and severe, he becomes one of the children’s most dependable mentors. 46

Guixu’s Independence

When the Demon Clan attempts to classify him as a “demon soldier,” Han Jue forcefully rejects involuntary conscription. He affirms his identity as an Ice-Scaled Tribe young master and commander of Guixu’s Guardian Team. 81

Later Service

Han Jue continues enforcing order during the expansion of Guixu Academy and the Three Lives Gate network. When Lu Chen begins experimenting with the Death Law, Han Jue assists through Mysterious Abyss but wisely stops questioning the Emperor’s intentions when warned. 130 144

Trivia

  • Han Jue’s interpretation of the Guixu Stillness Art initially remained aggressive: he believed surviving the Three-Clan conflict would eventually allow Guixu to dominate the Northern Sea. 7
  • He enjoys watching powerful people argue or fight, and once prepared spirit fruits to watch Ao Lie and Ancestor Xuan Jia quarrel. 19
  • His hidden kindness toward punished children led Ao Lie to mock him for a year, ending in a three-day sparring match. 46
