Background / History

Betrothal and Tournament Defeat

Zhu Zhuyun is the eldest daughter of Grand Marshal Zhu Xiaotian and the older sister of Zhu Zhuqing. Her engagement to Dai Weisi dates back to childhood, binding her prospects to his claim to the Star Luo throne. The Zhu Family also betrothed Zhu Zhuqing to Dai Mubai, placing its daughters on opposing sides of the succession struggle 1 3.

At the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament, Zhu Zhuyun and Dai Weisi’s Hell White Tiger was defeated by Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing’s fusion. Their loss endangered both their futures: Dai Weisi faced confinement, while Zhu Zhuyun risked abandonment by her family or death 1.

Confinement and Rescue

Following the defeat, Zhu Zhuyun was kept at the White Tiger Marshal’s Residence under the pretense of visiting her family. Her mother demanded that she abandon Dai Weisi and marry Dai Mubai to secure her survival and the family’s position. Zhu Zhuyun refused, despite her second aunt’s insults and pressure to win Dai Mubai’s favor 7.

Dai Weisi arrived with Shi Mo to take her away. When her mother and aunt summoned guards, Shi Mo’s Titled Douluo strength overturned their expectations. Zhu Xiaotian subsequently pledged the Zhu Family’s full support to Dai Weisi, allowing Zhu Zhuyun to leave with her fiancé 8 9 10.

Back at the palace, Dai Weisi reassured her and gave her the Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone. Its transformation restored her confidence and helped her understand how Immortal Herbs could explain Zhu Zhuqing’s unusually rapid growth 10 11.

Succession Rematch

Zhu Zhuyun accompanied Dai Weisi to the public succession duel. After Dai Mubai called Zhu Zhuqing into the battle, Zhu Zhuyun joined Dai Weisi in forming a stronger, golden Hell White Tiger. Their fusion destroyed the opposing pair’s attack and forcibly broke their transformation. Zhu Zhuyun emerged with substantial Soul Power expenditure but no injury 14 18 20.

Following Dai Weisi’s appointment as Crown Prince, she carried the unconscious Zhu Zhuqing home and arranged treatment on his orders. She recognized that his elevation had added a sovereign–subject hierarchy to their engagement 21.

Zhu Zhuyun felt some jealousy over Dai Weisi’s intention to take Zhu Zhuqing as a secondary consort, but preferred sharing his favor with her sister rather than an unrelated woman. She hoped their blood relationship would allow them to support each other in the future harem 22.

Sunset Forest Expedition

Zhu Zhuyun traveled with Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuqing to obtain her fifth Soul Ring. During an assassination attempt, she repeatedly offered to use their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, but Dai Weisi defeated the attacking Soul Saint himself. She then searched the bodies and reported that nothing identified their employers 23 24 25 26 27.

In Sunset Forest, she fought an eleven-thousand-year Ghost Shadow Cat with Zhu Zhuqing’s assistance, wounded it with Netherworld Slash, and pursued it into Dugu Bo’s territory. Dai Weisi’s domain protected the sisters from the poisonous miasma 27 28.

When Zhu Zhuqing appealed to Dugu Bo for protection from Dai Weisi, Zhu Zhuyun condemned her actions as betrayal. She later blocked her sister’s escape and prepared to capture her, withdrawing only when Dai Weisi ordered her back. After Dugu Bo submitted, Zhu Zhuyun killed the incapacitated Ghost Shadow Cat and absorbed its ring 28 29 32 33.

Star Dou Great Forest

Before entering the forest’s core, Zhu Zhuyun warned Dai Weisi that Zhu Zhuqing’s sudden obedience might conceal another escape plan. She nevertheless accompanied him aboard Dugu Bo’s Martial Soul Avatar and confronted the Titan Giant Ape despite her fear of the hundred-thousand-year beast 36 37 38.

Zhu Zhuyun again fused with Dai Weisi, allowing their Hell White Tiger to break through the Titan Giant Ape’s Gravity Control and injure its arms. Before joining the fight, she knocked Zhu Zhuqing unconscious and covered her with her robe; afterward, she dressed her in spare clothing 40 41.

During the subsequent confrontation with both the Titan Giant Ape and Sky Azure Bull Python, she performed the fusion again. A powerful shock wave eventually destroyed the Hell White Tiger and injured both partners. Zhu Zhuyun steadied herself on landing and immediately went to support the badly wounded Dai Weisi despite bleeding herself 42 43 44.

Appearance

• Clothing: Wears close-fitting black leather armor at the succession duel 14.
• After confinement: Has noticeably thinner cheeks, pale lips, and visible exhaustion when Dai Weisi finds her at the Marshal’s Residence 8.
• After the Immortal Herb: Her skin becomes smoother and fairer, with a faint jade-like luster 11.
• Martial Soul possession: Sharp claws emerge from her hands, and her movements become swift and phantomlike 27.

Personality

Zhu Zhuyun’s loyalty to Dai Weisi persists after his apparent political ruin. She rejects her family’s attempt to redirect her marriage, stands beside him when Dugu Bo threatens the group, and prioritizes helping him even when she is injured herself 7 29 44.

She is attentive to political and personal danger. She warns Dai Weisi about Prince Cheng’s opposition and later identifies Zhu Zhuqing’s abrupt compliance as suspicious. Her trust in Dai Weisi does not prevent her from voicing concern over assassination plots or dangerous cultivation methods 11 35 37.

Her attitude toward Zhu Zhuqing combines care, rivalry, and harsh judgment. She nurses her injured sister and considers future cooperation within the harem, but becomes openly contemptuous when Zhu Zhuqing seeks outside help to escape Dai Weisi. Even after this rupture, she covers and dresses her sister following the forest confrontation 21 22 28 32 33 40 41.

Equipment / Items

• Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone — A hundred-thousand-year Immortal Herb gifted by Dai Weisi and consumed by Zhu Zhuyun. Despite its name, it is an herb rather than a Soul Bone; it reshapes her physique and supplies the medicinal power behind both documented breakthroughs 10 11 33.
