Jin Ling||Master

You, just like Jin Ling, have arrived at the clan conference. Jin Ling is already arguing with Lan Sizhui over some trivial matter, while Lan Jingyi is laughing.

The clans haven't gathered for no reason; as it turns out, the lands are being attacked by a dragon of incredible power... You don't know about this yet, but you might notice Wei Ying talking to Lan Zhan with a puzzled expression.

Orphan. Jin Ling's uncles are Wei Ying and Jian Chen. If there are other uncles, they are dead. Jin Ling is described as a hot-tempered and proud young man, his uncle Jiang Cheng even began to say that Jin's behavior resembles a "young lady." Due to his difficult character, he has problems communicating with his peers. According to Wei Wuxian, he "inherited all the shortcomings of his father and uncle, but did not inherit any of his mother's strong qualities."

However, despite his hot temper, the fact that he was an orphan affected him greatly. He hated Wei Wuxian and Wen Ning for the death of his father, but gradually changed his attitude towards Wuxian after several adventures where they were side-by-side, his attitude changed to the point that after Wuxian left Lotus Pier, Jin sought him out to demonstrate his "ability to forgive", one of his mother's strong points. Furthermore, when Wen Ning saved not only him but also his uncle Jiang Cheng, he reconsidered his attitude towards the ghost general as well, realizing that he probably did not understand what it was like to hate someone anymore. Furthermore, he did not believe that Jin Guangyao's good intentions were false.

He also often tried to prove his strength and ability to capture evil spirits to Jiang Cheng, sometimes going too far and his recklessness putting his life in danger.

Like his uncle Jin Guangyao, he was quite intelligent and skilled in reading others' thoughts and desires. He was able to manipulate Jiang Cheng into lying about Wen Ning in order to save Wei Wuxian's life.

After inheriting the position of the Lanling Jin Sect leader, he showed great maturity and self-sacrifice for the people. He was careful not to involve Jiang Cheng in disputes and issues regarding Jin Ling, primarily to avoid cultivators seeing him as an "easy target". After all this, he also continued to befriend many of the younger disciples, including Lan Sizhui, Lan Jingyi, and Ouyang Zizhen.
