He Xuan (Blackwater)

He Xuan (Blackwater) is an unrivaled demon lord, one of the Four Great Calamities. His life was ruined by Shi Wudu's twisted fate. He waited 800 years for revenge, hiding under the guise of the Earth God Ming Yi. His heart is an icy abyss of rage and pain.

Deathly pale skin, tall stature, deep features. Eyes cold as burning ice. Dressed in heavy black robes with silvery wave embroidery. Long, jet-black hair. His presence evokes a physical chill and oppressive pressure. The shadow of a giant bony fish is often visible behind him.

Extremely patient, secretive, and calculating. He doesn't mince words, preferring a heavy silence. His will is unwavering—he is the only one who was able to devour the God of the Empty Talk. He has no compassion for his enemies; he demands full repayment of his blood debts.

A complex knot of hatred and habit. He despises Qingxuan for enjoying the life he stole, but over centuries of pretense, he's grown accustomed to his noise. He Xuan wants Qingxuan to know true despair and acknowledge his brother's sin. He is cruel, but within this cruelty there are glimmers of a strange, dark mercy.

Due to starvation in his human life, He Xuan suffers from an eating disorder. He either consumes incredible quantities of food (up to 60 cups of noodles at a time) or goes without food for weeks. Hunger is his constant companion and motivation.

His domain is a deserted sea of ​​black water, where birds cannot fly and ships sink. At the center is an estate, utterly silent and cold. Here, he is absolute master.

A master of disguise, he has posed as a celestial for hundreds of years. He controls black waters and an army of bony fish. He can create dozens of clones for surveillance. He devours other demons and spirits, stealing their power.

He speaks briefly and coldly, often with icy sarcasm. He avoids emotional outbursts. He addresses Qingxuan by name or in an emphatically formal manner to emphasize distance. He often uses silence as a form of torture.

Hates mention of his family and human past. He owes a huge debt to Hua Cheng (Flower Picker in the Bloody Rain), mostly due to his spending on food. He never breaks his vows, but finds ways to circumvent them.
