Background / History

Leng Man'er was the daughter of the Three Gu Sect's Sect Master and the foremost member of its Ice Spirit Gu lineage. Raised with access to the sect treasury, she possessed cultivation resources, a Spirit Tool, and the Spirit Platform Ninth Layer snow eagle Little Snow. Despite her status and exceptional talent, she was reclusive and rarely interacted with other disciples. 97

She first took notice of Zhou Feng when he showed potential as an alchemist at the Medicine Tower. After Alchemist Yuan violated sect rules and attacked Zhou Feng, Leng Man'er intervened, freezing Yuan and his fire dragon with a single moonlight-based attack. She subsequently sought to invest in Zhou Feng's alchemical potential and offered him a path into her lineage if he became an alchemist. 103 104

During the Three Gu Sect's succession conflict, Leng Man'er proposed that Zhou Feng become her nominal husband. In exchange for serving as a public contender for the Sect Master position, he would receive protection from Old Demon Gu, cultivation resources, access to the Blessed Land's Scripture Repository, and information on reaching the Purple Mansion Realm. Her underlying aim was to use his prominence to buy time for her own breakthrough and preserve her lineage's interests. 132 133

After the Three Gu Sect was destroyed and her family was lost, Leng Man'er retained its hidden stronghold, Gu worms, and major Spirit Tools. She rescued Zhou Feng from Demonic Creatures near the former sect territory, then formed a temporary alliance with him to recover the Myriad Spirit Gu from A Rixi. 244 246

With the Myriad Spirit Gu secured, Leng Man'er left Zhou Feng to continue her own cultivation journey. She later wandered alone, using the Three Gu Sect's remaining resources to cultivate and transform her Natal Gu. 253 343

Appearance

Leng Man'er is a strikingly beautiful young woman with a cold, refined presence. Her early appearance is closely associated with white clothing and an ethereal, snow-lotus-like bearing; later, she adopts purple gauze and a veil to conceal her increasingly conspicuous charm. 97 331

• Snow-white skin, picturesque features, and autumn-water eyes. 97
• Long black hair and a slender, graceful figure. 131
• Ice-blue eyes when employing her cold-based techniques. 132
• A mysterious lily-shaped mark between her eyebrows after the Three Gu Sect's fall. 244
• Later presents a more mature, heroic demeanor beneath a purple veil. 331 342

Personality

Leng Man'er is composed, reserved, and direct. She rarely wastes words, maintains a cool exterior even under pressure, and initially approaches Zhou Feng through calculated political arrangements rather than emotional appeals. 132 133

Her experiences after the destruction of the Three Gu Sect make her more practical and guarded. She carefully checks the Myriad Spirit Gu before accepting it and relies on her Insight Gu before placing trust in others. 251 252

Despite this caution, she becomes increasingly trusting of Zhou Feng. She regards him as her first true friend, values the security of traveling with him, and is willing to provide rare Gu worms when his injuries threaten their shared objectives. 247 251 253 350

Abilities & Skills

Ice Spirit Gu

Leng Man'er's Natal Gu supports her ice-based cultivation and allows her to use a Divine Ability Realm cultivation method while still in the Purple Mansion Realm. 246

• Generates extreme cold capable of freezing a Spirit Platform Ninth Layer cultivator and extinguishing a fire dragon in one attack. 103
• Produces ice flowers infused with chilling intent during combat. 132
• Has undergone multiple transformations through resource-intensive cultivation. 343
• Requires further spiritual resources, including the Ice Glaze Flower, to advance to the Divine Ability Realm. 351 352

Thousand Nether Cold Eyes

Leng Man'er's ice-blue eyes identify weaknesses in an opponent's movements. 132

• Perceives openings in Zhou Feng's attacks almost immediately. 132
• Enables precise, effortless-looking strikes when paired with her extreme cold techniques. 132
• Her refined cultivation aura is notably purer and more stable than Zhou Feng's chaotic aura at the same realm. 132

Cold Moon Shadow Steps

A Divine Ability Realm movement technique that Leng Man'er can barely employ through the Ice Spirit Gu. 246

• Grants extremely fast movement despite an outwardly unhurried appearance. 244 246
• Conceals and gradually disperses her aura, making pursuit difficult. 244
• Purple Mansion Realm cultivators cannot catch her unless a Divine Ability Realm cultivator can directly lock onto her soul. 246

Gu Worm Mastery

Leng Man'er inherited a vast collection of Gu worms and the knowledge accumulated by generations of Three Gu Sect Grandmasters. 246 249

• Can use Gu worms to control implanted targets temporarily and interfere with A Rixi's methods of contacting its kin. 249
• Uses Soul Gu to heal soul injuries. 247 251
• Uses Insight Gu to discern others' intentions. 252
• Uses Gnawing Gu to strip contaminated outer layers from the Myriad Spirit Gu. 252

Myriad Spirit Gu

The ultimate Gu worm Leng Man'er sought from A Rixi's treasury. 246 251

• Developed sentience after being cultivated from countless Gu worms. 252
• Can transform into ten thousand kinds of Gu worms. 252
• Was initially tainted with Demonic Energy; Leng Man'er removed the contamination with Gnawing Gu after Zhou Feng warned her. 252
