Background / History
Ye Wei searched for his granddaughter Ye Chuqi after a Spatial Vortex took her as an infant. Using their blood bond as a guide, he tore through spacetime and entered vortices and rifts. He found no trace of her, but became certain she was alive 240.
The search left him entangled with the laws of time and space. For more than a decade, he suppressed their effects and concealed the severity of his injuries, spending much of his later years in seclusion. When Chuqi returned to the Ye Family, she saw the chaotic Power of Rules around him and discovered that she could touch him without being harmed 239 240 241.
Chuqi gave him a remedy made with mutated Nine-Leaf Green Flowers and Spirit Spring water. His aura surged after he drank it, and the Power of Rules around him became more responsive; whether he broke through at that moment is not confirmed. His health later improved markedly. Chuqi advised him to stop trying to control the time-and-space power and seek the Power of Rules suited to his own advancement elsewhere 241 242 251.
Personality
Ye Wei hides a grave condition behind outward composure, but is warm and teasing with Chuqi. He takes visible delight in her calling him “Grandpa” when they first meet. He also loves swordsmanship: her demonstration of Lush Mountain’s techniques gives him hope for the Ye Family’s diminished sword tradition 240 245.
Abilities & Skills
Martial Cultivation
- Ye Wei is one of the few living Martial Combat Venerables and was once close to the upper limit of that rank 239 240.
- His prolonged injuries make his displayed power unreliable; Chuqi judges that his true strength may have fallen as low as early-stage Martial Combat Saint 241.
Spacetime and the Power of Rules
- He tore open spacetime and followed a blood bond through Spatial Vortices while searching for Chuqi 240.
- He can suppress the Power of Rules entangled around him, but cannot remove or safely control it. People have been injured simply by approaching him 240 241 251.
- Chuqi’s guidance gives him a new direction for pursuing advancement, but no further breakthrough is confirmed 251.
Relationships
- Ye Chuqi — Granddaughter. His search for her caused his lasting injuries; after their reunion, she identifies his condition and helps him recover 240 241 251.
- Ye Huarui — Son. Ye Wei concealed his condition so thoroughly that Huarui did not recognize its severity 240.
- Ye Qinglan — Grandson. Ye Wei knew of Qinglan’s exceptionally strong bloodline resonance with Chuqi from her birth 240.
