He Xuan

He Xuan spends most of the narrative in the image of the celestial Ming Yi. In this image, he wears completely black robes, has a face as white as snow and long black hair, brightly burning eyes — like two shimmering ice cubes and an indescribably gloomy expression on his face. In female form, he is also dressed in black, his face is beautiful but sad, his gaze struck like a dagger, and his long hair streamed down his back. The whole view exuded a deadly chill. In his true demonic form, his already snow-white face was lifelessly pale, like Hua Chen's, eyebrows arched, eyes sunk deeper, darkness spread in his gaze. Mysterious silver patterns were located along the edge of the modest black robe — elaborate embroidery repeated the outlines of the waves. He looked like a completely different person, although the whole face remained the same.

During his lifetime, He Xuan was a kind and devoted man who worked hard and took great care of his loved ones. Since childhood, he was distinguished by a frightening mind, he comprehended all sciences quickly and thoroughly, and besides, he was reputed to be an exemplary son: whatever he was told, he did everything without question. He was also honest, as he refused to bribe officials when he took the national exam, despite the fact that he desperately needed to pass it in the hope of escaping poverty. But, as luck would have it, he turned out to be unlucky in himself and no happiness stayed with him for long. He has learned to successfully adapt to circumstances, no matter what terrible troubles and losses befall him, trying to achieve more with his mind and abilities. When his sister and fiancee died due to the willfulness of a rich man, He Xuan went to court seeking justice, but was himself unjustly accused and imprisoned, where he spent two years, where he was fed once every three days. Because of this, his eating behavior was disrupted — sometimes he ate excessively, sometimes he could not eat at all for a long time. eat at all for a long time. But even when evil fate was relentlessly following on his heels, until the very last second, student He did not think about suicide, he did not want to give up, nothing could break him. As it turned out later, he had the potential for ascension, but this fate was stolen from him. In the end, He Xuan could not stand the constant adversity, went crazy and staged a massacre, killing everyone who had done him any harm. He died of exhaustion, overcome by a thirst for murder and a hidden malice. Shi Wudu came to him on the verge of death, although He Xuan did not know who it was, he remembered his face and, becoming a demon, gradually found out the circumstances of his death, filled with a desire to take revenge for his changed fate. His personality is currently a patient, cold and cruel demon.

He prefers to be alone and not draw attention to himself. For a long time, even in the Heavenly Palaces, it was said about him that, although he was an "unsurpassed" prince of demons, he mostly behaved with restraint and rarely caused trouble. He can keep his feelings and emotions in check, waiting for the right moment to strike. He is able to harbor a deep resentment that will not go away until he takes revenge on the offender. He is also cruel to those he despises, but at the same time he is fair in his own way. Hating Shi Qingxuan for living his fate, he wanted to punish him on a par with Shi Wudu, but after taking revenge, he simply left him alone, indifferent to his future fate. However, even as a demon, He Xuan retains some nobility. Having taken possession of the personality of the Lord of the Land of Ming Yi, he spared his life and kept him imprisoned. Although the real Ming was later killed, Hua Cheng remarked that he did not know who actually killed him (hinting that He Xuan was not involved in this). He also seems to be one of those who pays off his debts, since by owing Hua Chen a large amount of debt, he protects his interests, even if it complicates his own plans or harms him. Pretending to be "Ming Yi", He Xuan is silent and rarely makes his presence known. He prefers to be alone, but Shi Qingxuan managed to make friends with him and called himself his best friend, which "Ming Yi" resisted. Throughout history, they have almost always been seen around. Although he was neither sociable nor friendly, he managed to act well enough that people couldn't tell him apart from the real Lord of the Earth. Only minor inconsistencies revealed falsehoods in it. He hides under the guise of a human being, being in the human world.
