Di Xue

Di Xue is a Body Integration-stage puppet master residing in the Earth Abyss within the Spirit Realm. He is one of the four demon monarchs of the abyss. As a monarch he ruled over an entire level of the abyss. He conceals himself within crimson robes which are worn by all of his avatars. 
== First Meeting ==
Di Xue placed puppets throughout the Earth Abyss that served as sentries against invaders. Through his puppets, he became interested in Han Li who was guiding Tian Peng holy disciples through the Earth Abyss Trial. Di Xue wanted to obtain Han Li to use as material to craft puppets. As a result, Di Xue sent a Spatial Tempering-stage blood puppet to capture Han Li. However, Di Xue's plans ultimately failed when Han Li managed to destroy the blood puppet.
Di Xue later met Han Li in person in a meeting between the demon monarchs of the abyss. Di Xue learned that Han Li was untouchable because Han Li possessed Divine Devilbane Lightning, which was useful for an upcoming expedition into the Infernal River, the holy land of the Mayfly Race. As a result, he made a deal with the other monarchs to obtain Han Li's assistance in creating a Purple-blood puppet for the upcoming invasion. Di Xue plotted to one day obtain Han Li. In order to do so, Di Xue gifted Han Li a set of Spirit Servants - semi sentient puppets. The Spirit Servants were designed to erode Han Li's will and allow Di Xue to take control of Han Li as a puppet. Another side effect was the puppets allowed Di Xue to track Han Li. 
== Infernal River Invasion ==
Along with three other demon monarchs, Di Xue led his army of puppets into the Infernal River - a spatial realm that was a subsidiary of the Spirit Realm. Upon entering the realm, the invasion caught the attention of the Mayfly Race who considered the river as a holy land. The Mayfly Race used an army of remotely controlled puppets to ambush the invasion force. To break a stalemate, Di Xue teamed up with another demon monarch Liu Zu to crush the opposition. 
Together with the demon monarchs, Di Xue invaded a Mayfly fortress that sealed the Infernal River Elixir, an elixir that is greatly beneficial for Body Integration stage cultivators. He left a puppet avatar outside of the fortress in order to guard against Mayfly reinforcements. Unfortunately, his avatar was destroyed by a Mayfly being who borrowed a Divine Spirit Treasure called the Five Dragon Chopper. Within the fortress, he was forced into a perilous battle against defenders. His objective was to buy time for another demon monarch to obtain the elixir. During the perilous situation, Han Li intervened and managed to steal away two disciples of another demon monarch. However, Di Xue was preoccupied and unable to stop Han Li.
Luckily, Di Xue's efforts were successful and the group of demon monarchs were able to obtain the elixir. Unfortunately, the elixir couldn't be shared because it was difficult for even Body Integration stage cultivators refine. Instead, Di Xue received treasures and benefits in compensation. Along with the other demon monarchs, he reviewed the events that had transpired. He took the opportunity to chide another demon monarch for making an enemy out of Han Li.
