Identity Continuity
The supplied material identifies both a Grand Princess of Great Wei and a Grand Princess of Great Chu, but does not explicitly establish whether they are the same individual. Their recorded actions are therefore separated by state affiliation below.
Background / History
Great Wei
The Great Wei Grand Princess covertly sought the Destiny Dragon Soul that Fang Yue had refined. She employed Wen Feiyang to lure Fang Yue out of Divine Capital City, then pressured Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang at Yuhua Terrace to serve the imperial family. When they refused, she trapped them in an illusion intended to refine the Destiny Dragon Soul; they broke free and repelled her attempt to seize it. 357 359 361 362
She also prepared for a possible struggle against Great Wei's Son of Heaven by privately contacting court officials and gathering personnel. Her immediate objective was the Imperial Seal, which she believed would give her the leverage to handle Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang. 363
During the search of the underground city, she led imperial guards in pursuit of the royal treasury rather than ordinary riches. She uncovered clues to the treasury key, negotiated a temporary settlement with Fang Yue, and used her Dragon Soul Destiny to open a Stone Gate. The supposed Imperial Seal inside was a fake; after escaping the collapsing hall with Fang Yue, she was later rescued by Imperial Guards and ordered back to the palace. 365 372
She later confronted Fang Yue over the Heaven-Shaking Talisman. Although she initially refused to yield, she provided him with partial information about the talisman's origins and activation after being defeated; she admitted that the imperial family's complete inheritance methods were restricted to emperors and select high-ranking members. 376 378
Great Chu
The Grand Princess of Great Chu possessed knowledge of ancient royal records and identified a beast skin as the key to a True King Era secret treasury. She joined Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang's expedition preparations, mobilizing trusted confidants and subordinates for the search. 423
She intervened when Fang Yue was attacked by Yang Chan's allies and a Chu royal expert, then personally treated Fang Yue's severe internal injuries with her Internal Cultivation Method. The treatment nearly exhausted her vital essence. 434 435
After Great Chu's emperor and Imperial Advisor Yuan Tianding turned against Fang Yue, she secretly left the palace to rescue him. She used palace connections, sacred medicines, concealed routes, and her status to hide Fang Yue inside the Imperial Palace, then guided him through secret passages while evading Yuan Tianding's pursuit. 456 459
At a palace banquet, she publicly condemned her father for incompetence, immorality, permitting Yuan Tianding's abuses, and neglecting Great Chu's people. The emperor subsequently abdicated, leaving the imperial court to debate a successor. 460 461
Her prestige made her a potential ruler, but the Three Princes opposed her and spread rumors against her. She rallied ministers and outside factions, strengthened her defenses, and survived an assassination attempt despite sustaining severe injuries. 461 463
