Background / History

Star Luo Betrothal and Abduction

Zhu Zhuyun is the eldest daughter of Nether Grand Duke Zhu Tiancai and the designated consort of Dai Weisi. Their engagement places her in the Star Luo succession struggle, where daughters of the Zhu family must compete alongside their respective princes. Although she dreams of becoming empress, she also wants to escape the prospect of fighting her younger sister to the death 5 27.

When Zhu Zhuqing awakens a sufficiently talented Martial Soul and becomes Dai Mubai’s fiancée, Zhuyun pushes away her previously cherished sister and declares them competitors. Bibi Dong interrupts the gathering at the Nether Duke’s Mansion and forcibly takes Zhuyun away 24.

Bibi Dong presents the abduction as accepting a disciple. After overpowering the assembled family members, she obtains the Dai and Zhu families’ Hell White Tiger cultivation notes and declares Zhuyun’s ties to both families severed. The Star Luo court ultimately accepts the loss rather than risk war with Spirit Hall 25 26.

Cultivation with Jiang Huai

In Spirit City, Zhuyun learns that she was brought to help Jiang Huai cultivate the Hell White Tiger. His superior White Tiger Martial Soul and thousand-year first Soul Ring immediately impress her; discovering his second Martial Soul, Hell Spirit Cat, further convinces her of his potential. Recognizing that her association with Spirit Hall has ended her prospects of becoming Star Luo Empress, she chooses to secure her future alongside him 27.

After half a year of daily practice, the pair successfully forms the Hell White Tiger. Both reach Soul Power bottlenecks, and Bibi Dong rewards Zhuyun with the Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone. She subsequently obtains her third Soul Ring in the Star Dou Great Forest and continues training under Yue Guan and Gui Mei during Bibi Dong’s absence 28 29 30.

Zhuyun joins Jiang Huai’s Soul Fighting Arena team, whose victories publicly demonstrate that Spirit Hall can wield the Dai imperial family’s signature fusion skill. She also stands with Jiang Huai during Qian Renxue’s confrontation, urging him to fuse with her again when the conflict escalates 31 32 36 37.

Proposed Three-Person Fusion and Heaven Dou Journey

After absorbing her Mermaid Clan Soul Bone, Zhuyun privately tells Bibi Dong that the Hell White Tiger seems capable of accepting another source of power. She proposes Zhu Zhuqing as a third participant. Bibi Dong approves the idea but postpones bringing the younger sister to Spirit City 40 41.

Five years later, Zhuyun is a level 53 Soul King. She explains that her father has secretly helped Zhu Zhuqing escape Star Luo City to avoid Dai Weisi, and accompanies Jiang Huai’s team on its Heaven Dou Empire training journey 41 42.

In Suotuo City, Dai Mubai approaches her group without initially recognizing her. Zhuyun mocks his flight from the succession struggle, provoking him into attacking; Tianyao intercepts him and strikes him in the face 43.

Appearance

• Wears a tight leather outfit when introduced to Jiang Huai 27.
• Gains furry feline ears and a black tail during Martial Soul Possession 27.
• After absorbing the Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone, her skin becomes lustrous and white like jade, with a flowing jade-like radiance 29.

Personality

Zhuyun is ambitious and pragmatic. She initially seeks the position of Star Luo Empress, but quickly reassesses her future after being taken to Spirit Hall. Rather than cling to an impossible return, she recognizes Jiang Huai’s talent and Bibi Dong’s investment in him as a new opportunity 27.

She is perceptive about cultivation and personal advantage. She suspects that Jiang Huai’s rapid progress involves undisclosed resources, and later independently notices the possibility of expanding their fusion to include a third person 28 40.

Her attachment to Jiang Huai becomes protective and possessive. She shields him when Golden Crocodile Douluo arrives with Tianyao, intervenes when female spectators flirt with him, and volunteers their fusion skill against Qian Renxue. Her proposal to bring Zhu Zhuqing to Spirit City combines cultivation strategy with a desire to keep Jiang Huai close to the Zhu family 31 32 37 41.

• Jiang Huai — Cultivation partner and close companion. Their successful fusion accelerates their growth, and she becomes deeply attached to him over years of joint training 27 28 41.
