Background / History

Childhood and Family Training

Ye Wuju began laying Ye Huan's martial foundations when he was five. His training included jumping out of pits to prepare for lightness techniques, studying medicine and acupuncture, and accompanying his grandfather into the mountains. By the time he left for boarding high school, villagers already trusted him to treat minor ailments 22 23 34.

Although he favored quick, practical techniques over the family's deeper arts, his foundation was strong enough that he could generally learn a demonstrated movement after seeing it once. His regular training with Ye Wuju ended when he began boarding at high school 22 23.

His closest childhood companions were Man Niu and Da Hu. When they defended him against school bullies, Ye Huan persuaded his grandfather to teach them martial arts as well. Man Niu later helped support him financially during university 10.

City Life and Return Home

After graduating in 2011, Ye Huan remained in the city for four years. During his working life in Shenzhen, he rescued Ye Yingying from four armed attackers, earning a bravery certificate. His excessive force nearly caused legal trouble, but Ye Yingying helped resolve the matter, and the attackers were imprisoned after further crimes came to light 1 10 11 19.

A near-fatal car accident preceded his discovery of a spirit spring space inside his body. He later identified a piece of jade found in the mountain forest as the source of the space. With this new means of supporting himself, he decided to leave city employment; an argument with his manager resulted in his dismissal before he could resign 1 38.

He returned to his rural home determined to stay. There, an ancient jade tablet transmitted the Shennong Scripture to him, including the Longevity Dao Scripture. He began combining cultivation with farming, using space-grown produce and spirit spring water while concealing their origin 1 3.

Establishing the Farm

Ye Huan used diluted spirit spring water on vegetables and fruit trees, then found a reliable buyer in Manager Du. His parents initially doubted the business, but a vegetable delivery earning six thousand yuan convinced his father that farming could support the household 5 8.

The family divided responsibilities: Ye Huan handled technical matters and sales, while his parents managed the vegetable plots and deliveries. He bought a Wrangler Sahara for himself and a Maxus pickup for his father, then expanded into livestock and additional construction 8 14 15 32.

Storm and Village Dispute

Warned by Xiaobai's father of torrential rain and flash floods, Ye Huan brought his grandfather and the animals to shelter. When Bai Jie's house collapsed, he rescued her and Jingjing and promised to rebuild their home. The crop damage also reinforced his plans to use greenhouses 21 23.

Ye Gou's sexual rumors about Bai Jie provoked a confrontation with his family and exposed the village chief's reluctance to intervene firmly. After Ye Wuju forced Eighth Uncle's household to leave the village, Ye Huan suspended cooperation with the village farming project. He remained willing to help trusted relatives grow vegetables 24 25 33.

Inheritance and Expansion

During the storm's aftermath, Ye Huan discovered that his space had doubled in area and achieved his self-assessed fifth cultivation level. On a subsequent mountain trip, he obtained a wild ginseng estimated to be about 780 years old and chose to keep it rather than sell it 26 28.

Ye Wuju then formally handed over the family's treasures. Ye Huan stored them in the space and later received the ancestral martial arts manual and a secret manual covering acupoint sealing and acupuncture. Despite pursuing immortal cultivation, he treated these family teachings as an inheritance to preserve and pass down 29 46.

He commissioned housing for Bai Jie and Da Hu's grandfather, livestock shelters, and a fortified mountain cabin. At his university reunion, he declined Chen Xixi's offer to join her team in Magic City, explaining that he was content with his profitable farming life 32 36 41.

Appearance

• Build: Lean and muscular rather than bulky, with balanced proportions and eight abdominal muscles 10 26.
• Skin: Becomes increasingly smooth and develops a faint sheen through cultivation 26.
• Face: Previously clean-cut; his classmates later notice more sharply defined features and a stronger masculine appearance 41.
• Eyesight: His slight nearsightedness disappears during early cultivation; later improvements include seeing the distant orchard in darkness 1 26.

Personality

Ye Huan values independence and a settled rural life over city employment. He refuses both Chen Xixi's job offer and the prospect of moving back to town merely to meet a future spouse's expectations. His preferred life centers on farming, cultivation, mountain outings, and family companionship 18 41.

He is especially devoted to his grandfather and protective of his childhood friends. His affection also extends to children: he regularly feeds, entertains, and looks after Jingjing and Little Tangyuan. Helping Bai Jie begins with employment and develops into sheltering her family and arranging a new house 10 15 16 18 23 32.

His humor is teasing and occasionally boastful, particularly when talking to Saihu. Nevertheless, his growing power does not erase his caution. He hides the Spirit Spring Space, considers reducing the concentration of spring water used outside it, and accepts his grandfather's warning against venturing toward the dangerous mountain pool 1 23 28.

He is far less accommodating toward exploitation. Ye Gou's treatment of Bai Jie makes him willing to confront the village, while his relatives' interest in the family treasures leaves him determined not to indulge their demands 24 37 46.
