Shen Yueli

Biodata

Power Progression

Background / History

Shen Yueli is a talented student from a collateral branch of the Shen Family, a prominent clan in Linhai City. Before the story’s opening, Su Bai’s father, Su Qingshan, saved her. She later cites this debt when explaining her decision to protect his son 1 19.

On awakening day, she receives the A-rank Moonlight Sacred Domain and declines Gu Chengfeng’s proposal to combine their forces, stating that she prefers working alone. When Gu Chengfeng pressures Su Bai into accepting a dangerous mining contract, she intervenes and gives Su Bai a contamination suppression talisman. Su Bai’s contact with the talisman coincides with the activation of his Ghost Story Creator system 1.

Appearance

Shen Yueli is recognized as Linhai No. 3 Middle School’s school beauty, with finely described features and a cool, aloof bearing 1.

• Hair: Usually tied in a high ponytail 1 19.
• Clothing: Blue-and-white school uniform 1 19.
• Characteristic expression: Composed and distant; her rare smile appears when Su Bai returns safely from Benevolent Heart Hospital 35.

Personality

Shen Yueli is reserved, independent, and direct. She rejects Gu Chengfeng’s offer without entertaining his attempt to impress her, and later dismisses the team arranged by her own family as too noisy. Her request to join Su Bai’s team is equally straightforward 1 37.

Her aloofness conceals a strong sense of gratitude and responsibility. She publicly opposes Gu Chengfeng’s treatment of Su Bai, offers practical help rather than empty reassurance, and joins Su Bai despite knowing that the Gu Family is targeting him. After he is sent to Benevolent Heart Hospital, she reproaches herself for not using her family’s connections to protect him more forcefully 1 19 35 37.

She is particularly angered by attacks on her fellow students. In Mist Canyon, she confronts Wang Meng over the murder of another team and wants to intervene immediately when Poison Wolf begins sacrificing captives. Su Bai has to restrain her long enough to explain his rescue strategy 38 42.

Relationships

• Su Qingshan — Her past rescuer and the source of the debt she feels toward Su Bai. The circumstances of the rescue are not described 1 37.
• Lin Que — Classmate and fellow member of Su Bai’s three-person team. Her moonlight protects him from Mist Canyon’s pollution, while his Ironclad Lizardman serves as the team’s frontline defender 37 38.
• Gu Chengfeng — Unwelcome pursuer. She rejects his proposed alliance and openly condemns his bullying of Su Bai 1.
• Shen Family — Her clan. Although the family arranges an assessment team for her, she chooses to accompany Su Bai and Lin Que instead 37.
