Background
Chu Han is the son of Dragon God Chu Ye and Angel God King Qian Renxue, as well as the elder brother of Qian Xue. Though his seniority places him above the later Six-Winged Angel lineage, he is mentally only around twenty years old and asks Qian Leyu and Qian Yu not to address him as an ancestor in ordinary circumstances 703.
Before descending to the mortal realm, Chu Han spent more than a century in the Evil Creature Plane. Time moved slowly enough there that he remained only eleven to twelve years old, but the constant life-and-death combat turned him into a close-combat specialist capable of challenging red-level evil creatures—opponents comparable to Title Douluo above rank 96 581 582. By twelve and a half, he had defeated the plane’s king gold-rank evil creature and possessed close-combat ability comparable to a First-level God under equal physical conditions 583.
To make his mortal-realm tempering meaningful, Chu Han personally asked Chu Ye to seal the light attribute of his Sword of Gods and Demons Martial Soul, leaving him only its dark attribute. He also refused divine artifacts and soul bones so that he could obtain power through his own efforts 583.
Appearance
Chu Han has a notably youthful face despite his extraordinary strength; Huo Yuhao initially mistakes him for someone around his own age 585. He bears a strong resemblance to his father, Chu Ye, which later helps expose his lineage 663 703.
- Appears around twelve years old upon first entering the mortal realm 583 585.
- Resembles Dragon God Chu Ye by roughly sixty to seventy percent 663 703.
- Usually fights with a sword Martial Soul, initially presented as the dark-attribute Demon Sword 594.
- His original Sword of Gods and Demons Martial Soul returns after its seal is lifted 743.
Personality
Chu Han is intensely battle-driven. He considers Soul Power progression comparatively simple and instead pursues life-and-death combat, physical conditioning, battle awareness, and technical refinement. This obsession kept him in the Evil Creature Plane for over a hundred years, where every victory sharpened his understanding of battle 581.
He is calm, aloof, and often blunt with strangers. He initially assists Huo Yuhao without expecting repayment, but makes clear that he does not intend to waste time searching for someone who falls behind 586. At Spirit Hall Academy, he rejects romantic attention because he believes relationships would slow his pursuit of absolute power 596.
Despite this detachment, Chu Han is protective of those he values. He risks being buried in a collapsing cave to carry Ye Guyi to safety, seeks vengeance when he believes the Holy Spirit Cult may have harmed her, and focuses on gaining enough strength to protect the people important to him 629 654 657. He also treats Qian Yu with an elder’s concern because of her connection to the Six-Winged Angel bloodline 676.

Story Role / Major Arcs
Evil Creature Plane Tempering

When the Ordinary Alliance is destroyed, Chu Han’s fear for Ye Guyi becomes the catalyst for his intensified pursuit of strength 654 657.
Slaughter City and the Asura Trials
To qualify for Slaughter City, Chu Han defeats three Core Court students, including Qian Yu. He survives the city’s trials, condenses the Divine Slaughter’s Domain, and begins the Asura Nine Trials 659 663 669.
