Yingxing

was a short-life species man who was a member of the High-Cloud Quintet, a famous group within the Xianzhou Alliance. His current identity is Blade, a member of the Stellaron Hunters.
==History==
As a child, Yingxing's homeworld was destroyed by the borisin and transformed into one of their weapons nurseries. He somehow made his way to the Xianzhou on a merchant vessel, where he was discovered by Master Huaiyan of the Xianzhou Zhuming's Artisanship Commission and made his apprentice. Yingxing vowed to make weapons for the Cloud Knights in order to avenge his home and family, and was an exceedingly talented craftsman, described as being incredible at his work by earning accolades at such a young age.
During his time on the Zhuming, Yingxing met Baiheng when she was assigned to a delegation to request arms and reinforcements from the ship for the Yaoqing's Heroncrest Fleet, who were occupied with fighting the borisin. He was tasked with receiving the delegation at Radiant Zenith and escorting them to his Master at Flamewheel Forge. Along the way, Baiheng talked to the shy and insecure boy, who she started calling Little Yingxing, and he opened up about his past to her. Once there, Huaiyan was willing to allocate three hundred fighter jets, twenty thousand thunder crossbows, and twenty thousand devastator glaives in response to Helm-Master Qingying's request for reinforcements, but only a dozen or so personnel.
Though Yingxing was a shy boy in his youth, he became more confident as he grew up, and was described to be an arrogant man by many. Over time, Yingxing forged hundreds of weapons, four being his most famous. These weapons were subsequently used by the members of the High-Cloud Quintet, and he was assumedly inducted by Jingliu into the group. At first, she wasn't too fond of his defiant nature, but when they met again, he was able to craft weapons that astonished the master craftsmen, and snatched the Artisanship Commission title of "Furnace Master." While he didn't fight on the front lines, Yingxing was still present during battles with military engineers.
Yingxing was shown to be close to the other Quintet members, and would regularly drink and spar with them.Animated Short: Ichor of Two Dragons At some point, fellow member Dan Feng, the High Elder of the Xianzhou Luofu's Vidyadhara at the time, allowed Yingxing into the Dragon Palace at Scalegorge Waterscape to return a favor.
In the Year 7379 of the Star Calendar, in an event that later came to be known as the "Sedition of Imbibitor Lunae," Dan Feng caused turmoil by "stealing" the power of the Abundance and changing the Transmutation Arcanum, breaking the foremost of ten unpardonable sins on the Xianzhou, with the help of Yingxing. This event occurred in the aftermath of a devastating war against Shuhu, an Emanator of Yaoshi, where Baiheng lost her life. Their tampering with the Ambrosial Arbor caused the creation of a draconic beast, and because of Yingxing's involvement and use of Shuhu's flesh in the process, he was transformed into an immortal being and struck with mara. This caused Yingxing to harbor an immense resentment for Dan Feng, and in turn, his reincarnation, Dan Heng.
In the aftermath of the Sedition, Yingxing was assumedly banished from the Xianzhou, and lost a majority of his memories. During this time he was discovered by Jingliu, who taught him swordplay, but also killed him multiple times to remind him of the karma of his past actions. He went on to seek out Dan Heng with murderous intent, chasing him across multiple IPC spaceships. No matter how many times they fought and Dan Heng killed him in self-defense, Yingxing always came back in pursuit.Light Cone: Nowhere to Run
Some time after this, he was discovered by Elio, who saw a use for his immortality, and was convinced to join the Stellaron Hunters in exchange for a deal, promising to bring an "eternal end and final funeral" to his life and everything he had ever hated.
