Hanguang

Hanguang was a talented smith on the Xianzhou Zhuming. He was a disciple of General Huaiyan and the father of Yunli.
==History==
Hanguang was an exceptional swordsmith, described as the greatest master craftsman since Yingxing. Travelers from all over would visit the Flamewheel Forge to get one of his swords. He had an unusual passion for forging, and dreamed of forging a sword with self-awareness that would surpass humans. He believed it would make warriors invincible without any prior training. In order to create this kind of weapon, he infused heliobi into swords and forged swords that could grant their wielders strength and valor, and even make decisions for them.
However, these swords would absorb all the anger, fear, and bloodlust they experienced during countless battles, becoming "cursed swords." The soldiers wielding them were consumed by malice, turning into puppets possessed by their swords. Despite the devastating effects, outworlders encouraged Hanguang to keep forging cursed swords. Obsessed with becoming a famed swordsmith, and spurred on by outworlders claiming they needed his swords for all sorts of reasons, Hanguang forged a total of 1,382 heliobus cursed swords.
One day, the Flamewheel Forge was overrun by visitors from afar. The chaos of the mob eventually broke out into a massacre. Hanguang was fatally stabbed by one of the swords he forged. Though many other people died, including Yunli's mother, Yunli managed to escape and was later adopted by Huaiyan.
Yunli grew to resent her father for his sins and made a vow to hunt down all the cursed swords he forged. Upon finding a cursed sword, she will separate it from its heliobus, melt it down, and add it to her sword, the "Blade of Forged Remnants." In order to reclaim these swords, Yunli has to duel their bloodthirsty wielders, often suffering serious wounds as a result. She has found 313 cursed swords so far.
