Background / History
Origins and Childhood
Youyue was born to the head of Beijing’s Xu Family. While the family was under pressure from rivals, her father was ambushed during a trip to Jinling. He hid her in bushes to draw the attackers away, but she was gone when he returned. Another couple found and adopted her 370.
Growing up with Jun Wangchen, she accompanied him to and from school, took the blame when his mother scolded him, and defended him against bullies. Their closeness developed into a childhood romance and a promise that remained important to her throughout their separation 211.
Disappearance and Six Years in Beijing
Her adoptive parents rescued an injured elderly nun and let her recover in their home. The nun discovered Youyue’s Extreme Yin Body and initially considered killing her to seize its energy, but could not bring herself to harm the kind child whose parents had saved her. Recognizing Youyue’s wrist jewelry as a Xu Family token, she helped uncover her origins 370.
When the nun’s enemies attacked, Youyue’s adoptive parents sacrificed their lives to let the two escape. They fled to Beijing, where the Xu Family confirmed Youyue’s identity. Her father refused her request to return to Jun until she became a Yellow Tier martial artist. She spent six years training under the nun to meet that condition, remaining within the Xu Family estate 370.
Reunion in Jinling
After reaching Yellow Tier, Youyue returned to Jinling. She contacted Jun a week after her arrival and met him at Seven Hues KTV. Initially unable to explain her disappearance, she told him that family circumstances had forced her to leave 211.
Jun admitted that he now liked someone else, with Zi Hanyan occupying his thoughts. Youyue nevertheless played the harmonica she had practiced daily for six years and declared that she would wait for him. She subsequently introduced him to coworkers and friends as her boyfriend, despite his uncertainty about that label 211 212 221.
At Zhu Yiqun’s birthday gathering, she defended Jun against insults. She later intervened when Gu Chengtian’s men threatened to sexually assault Hu Lijing, only to become Gu’s target herself. The other guests abandoned her, but Jun protected her. After Zhou Fangzun punished Gu and left his fate to Jun, Youyue chose to spare his life 212 215 218.
Jealousy and Estrangement
Youyue’s fear of losing Jun led her to follow him and investigate his relationships with other women. After seeing him take a drugged woman to a hotel for treatment, she confronted him beside a lake. Jun challenged her assumption that their childhood bond entitled her to control his present life 305.
Their argument continued after she fell and injured her knee. Jun treated the wound and eventually apologized and embraced her, but remained troubled by her possessiveness. Later, Youyue recognized that he was treating her with friendly distance rather than their former intimacy 305 349.
Extreme Yin Body Crisis
A warning from her master’s jade talisman led Youyue to an abandoned factory, where the injured nun faced hostile fellow disciples. There she learned that her master had originally approached her to exploit her Extreme Yin Body. Although shocked, she refused to reject the nun, emphasizing that her master had never actually harmed her 367.
Youyue reinforced her master’s defensive barrier with spiritual power. When the attackers offered to spare the nun in exchange for her body, she approached their leader, intending to sacrifice herself. Jun secretly intervened before the man could seize her 368.
While Youyue fetched medicine, the nun explained her six-year ordeal to Jun. His resentment over her disappearance gave way to guilt. He healed the nun and entrusted her with the Yin-Yang Meditation Technique to pass on to Youyue, while concealing his role and full strength to preserve Youyue’s independence 369 370 371.
Marriage Pact and Farewell
Youyue’s uncle came to take her back to Beijing because of a marriage pact arranged when she was born. Her fiancé was an exceptionally powerful young martial artist from one of Beijing’s Four Great Superfamilies. She initially did not know about the engagement 487.
After learning of the pact, she met Jun on a rooftop before her planned departure. She confessed that her happiness was beside her, referring to him. Jun acknowledged that she still held a place in his heart and promised to be her happiness; she responded with tears, a kiss, and a vow to wait for him 489 490.
In Beijing, a masked Jun visited her during the Dragon Boat Festival and created a moving starry sky over a sunlit pedestrian street. Youyue recognized his familiar eyes and voice, but he left without removing his mask. His promise to meet again when his name resounded throughout Huaxia left her hopeful 594 600.
Appearance
Youyue is repeatedly described as exceptionally beautiful, with an appearance that attracts attention from passersby and remains vivid in Jun’s childhood memories 211 594.
- Eyes: Clear, bright, and likened to stars 211 305.
- Hair: Long, silky, and soft 305 594.
- Build: Slender and graceful 215 367.
- Expressions: Often wears a flowerlike smile; her expressive eyes readily reveal affection, grief, or anticipation 211 594.
Personality
Youyue’s devotion is persistent rather than casual. She trained for six years to earn permission to return to Jun, practiced the harmonica daily for their reunion, and remained willing to wait even after he admitted loving someone else 211 370.
Her compassion extends beyond people who treat her well. She defended Hu Lijing despite Hu’s earlier mockery of Jun, spared Gu Chengtian after his punishment, and remained loyal to her master after learning of the nun’s original selfish intentions 215 218 367.
That devotion also has a possessive side. She becomes jealous of Jun’s connections with other women and follows him without his knowledge, prompting a conflict over privacy and independence. Beneath her demands is a strong fear that their separation has left her unable to recover their former closeness 218 305 371.
In quieter interactions, she is playful and flirtatious, using teasing romantic lines and enjoying Jun’s jokes. She also expresses a firm view of personal responsibility: once someone has considered a decision, they should accept its consequences rather than blame others 352 449.
