Another incident in her lifetime would forever change her view of her uncle and the city: She contracted Oripathy along with her senior, Nine, three years ago (the year 1094) when she got injured during a mission by an Originium bomb. She managed to keep her position at the L.G.D. thanks to Wei's influence.[1] However, the more Ch'en dove into the inner workings of the city, especially the neglected slums, the more she uncovered her uncle's hypocrisy. Indeed, during the Chernobog-Lungmen crisis, she saw the persecution of the Infected firsthand when Wei ordered his Shadow Guards to purge the slums. Ch'en chose to betray Wei's orders, and by extension Lungmen, by going to Chernobog to stop its incoming collision with the city.

Following the fiery battle against Talulah that ended the crisis, Ch'en resigned from her position at the L.G.D. and joined Rhodes Island. During her stay in R.I., she gained many new experiences, such as the Dossoles affair during her summer vacation and her trip to Victoria with her former classmate Bagpipe. She learned to accept that not every story is black or white and has begun to question her long-standing motto of achieving justice by any means necessary. Nevertheless, she still has a long journey of learning and discovery ahead of her.

To the public, Ch'en Hui-chieh appears to be a stern Lung officer of the Lungmen Guard Department. However, she is more than meets the eye. Not only is she the niece of Lungmen's governor Wei Yenwu, but also the younger half-sister of Talulah Artorius, the leader of the infamous Reunion Movement. The sisters got separated after Kashchey kidnapped Talulah twenty years ago. Since then, Ch'en had been training diligently to protect Lungmen, hoping to see her sister again one day. She put aside her hatred for her uncle, who she believed was responsible for her mother's disastrous remarriage, learning from him how to use Chi Xiao (赤霄, lit. "Crimson Firmament"), the legendary Dragon-Slaying Sword of Yan. As time passed, she achieved most of her goals, shaping her into a person with a strong sense of justice.

As the Special Inspection Unit Chief of the L.G.D., Ch'en is a trustworthy leader known for her brilliant tactics and mastery of swordplay. Those who know her privately consider her headstrong and perhaps somewhat stubborn. She has a rivalry with her childhood friends, Lin Yühsia, daughter of the criminal leader of Lungmen's underworld, and Swire, her fellow L.G.D. colleague. Despite this, she shows her caring side to those she trusts, both Swire and her colleague and long-time partner Hoshiguma.
