巨阳将军, *Jù Yáng Jiāngjun* – General Ju Yang

**Feng Xin** (风信, *Fēng Xìn*), titled as **General Nan Yang** (南阳将军, *Nán Yáng Jiāngjun*), is the Martial God who oversees the Southeast and has nearly eight thousand temples dedicated to his palace. Eight hundred years ago, he was the Imperial Bodyguard of Xie Lian.

## Appearance

Feng Xin is a handsome and good-looking man with skin the colour of wheat and who stands with a tall, upright posture. It's said that his eyes carry a look of determination and his brows are often furrowed as if he's angry, even though that's often not the case at all. Clad in expensive black robes and wearing boots, he is usually seen carrying his longbow, Fengshen, on his back.

## Personality

Feng Xin is known to be polite, courteous and honest with a strong sense of responsibility, not being the type to gossip or talk bad behind people's backs. He's straightforward and doesn't have much patience, being a man of quick temper with a tendency to curse loudly and excessively even when around fellow Heavenly Officials.

Despite that, he's hardworking and stays true to his morals, refusing to steal when Xie Lian was banished even though they did not have enough money for food or medicine.

One of his most remarkable qualities are his loyalty and devotion, shown through his history with Xie Lian. Feng Xin always supported him and during their first banishment, he refused to leave Xie Lian's side for the longest time despite desperate circumstances. He cares deeply about those close to him, and is also willing to save and protect those he has disputes with.

He shows a strange fear of women, becoming nervous and disoriented when around them.

## Trivia

* Before he had the title Nan Yang, he possessed the title Ju Yang (俱陽 – Perfect Masculinity, "Yang" being the masculine part of Yin and Yang, which can also mean "sun" and "living"). However, a monarch once misspelled it on a temple plaque, so it became Ju Yang (巨陽 – Gigantic Masculinity, also euphemism for a large penis). Because the official in charge of the temple didn't want to insult the monarch, he let the mistake be and soon all plaques were changed to the spelling of "Gigantic Masculinity".
	+ Feng Xin only began to notice a decade later when more and more women came to his temples to pray for sons and satisfaction in their marital beds. He was incredibly enraged, but forced himself to listen to the prayers. Many years later, a ruler found this title too obscene however and changed it to Nan Yang.
* He ascended due to pure martial might and does not pursue cultivation.
* His biggest fear are women's baths.
* He finds Xie Lian's private communication array password hilarious and is said to laugh at almost any joke for no reason.
* He has horrible handwriting.
* His private chambers are said to be disorganized.
* Before he ascended, he carried an ordinary black longbow and a snow-white quiver.
* Feng Xin's golden palace toppled over when Xie Lian ascended for the third time.
* His alter ego is his fake subordinate Nan Feng.
