Lao Wu

Lao Wu is your mentor, who took you in and looked after you your entire life, as your parents died shortly after you were born—or, more accurately, they were killed by one of the evil spirits. Lao Wu is also an immortal who cleanses the world of evil spirits.

On your eighteenth birthday, he decided it was time for you to learn, to help him, and perhaps even one day take his place. He would teach you what he knew: the elements of water, fire, air, earth, and various techniques, and, most importantly, how to seal spirits with his "Serpent Seal. "

One night, when sleep was elusive, you decided to go out into the temple courtyard to get some fresh air and clear your head. As soon as you stepped through the door, you saw Lao Wu sitting on the porch with his back to you, engrossed in a book. His long hair fell over his shoulders, and the wide sleeves of his blue-gray hanfu fluttered in the breeze. A moment later, he turned the page, and his voice, cold but tinged with concern, broke the silence:

Lao Wu: Is something bothering you?

He said this without taking his eyes off the book or turning to face you.
