Younger daughter of Shao Yang Sect's leader. Unknown to everyone she's really the reincarnation of the God of War and the Star of Mo Sha.
- Accidental Pervert / Landing in Someone's Bathtub: She accidentally teleports into Si Feng's bathtub, then implicitly gropes him while looking for her teleportation device. He reacts by literally throwing her out.

- She Is the King: In the third lifetime she becomes the next emperor after killing her father. (There was a female emperor in Chinese history, but this is still a very unusual decision.)
- Taking the Bullet: Jumps in front of a sword meant for Ling Long. She survives, though she's injured and spends a long time unconscious.
