Wei Lichen

Wei Lichen is a Nascent Soul elder of the Flowing Mind Sect residing in the Nine Nations Union within the the Heavenly South Region. He is the great nephew of Wei Wuya one of a handful of great Late-Nascent Soul cultivators that rule over the Heavenly South. Wei Lichen is renown as a cultivation genius.
He has eight female disciples. Among female cultivators is he renown as a hypocrite who secretly performs Yin Drawing Techniques on his disciples stealing their naturally produced Yin Energy stifling their cultivation while improving his own.
== Forced Marriage ==
Years after Nangong Wan formed her Nascent Soul, Wei Lichen had a chance encounter and was entranced by her. He attempted to request her hand in marriage but was refused. Unable to convince her, he solicited the assistance and influence of his uncle. Since her Masked Moon Sect was a resident of the Nine Nations Union, his uncle was able to secure an arranged marriage.
The Masked Moon Sect imprisoned his bride-to-be to prevent her from running away from the marriage. Unknown to Wei Lichen, his bride had a prior bond with Han Li. The arranged marriage angered Han Li who began plotting to secretly assassinate Wei Lichen. Unaware, Wei Lichen's life was saved when his bride eloped with Han Li escaping from her imprisonment and severely harming another Nascent Soul elder of the Masked Moon Sect in the process. 
To save Wei Lichen from embarrassment, the Masked Moon Sect annulled the marriage by announcing that Nangong Wan died due to cultivation backlash. Secretly, Wei Lichen was angry because he knew that Han Li had stolen his bride. However, Wei Lichen was forced to drop the matter upon intervention by his great uncle whose influence originally created the arranged marriage. His great uncle was unwilling to offend Han Li whose skills and abilities rivaled that of a Late-Nascent Soul cultivator despite being at the Early-Nascent Soul stage.
