## Heavenly Officials

### Xie Lian

Jun Wu first met Xie Lian when he defeated the demon of the Yi Nian Bridge. He was so impressed by Xie Lian that he took off his disguise of a mortal Taoist and showed his true form as the Heavenly Emperor. After returning to Heaven, he told the gods that Xie Lian has a great potential.

It was clear to the heaven that Jun Wu greatly favored Xie Lian. Two of Xie Lian's most powerful legendary swords, Hong Jing and Fang Xin, were gifts from Jun Wu.

In truth, he was greatly angered by Xie Lian's attitude and conviction that you can remain pure after suffering greatly. This inspired him to adorn a fake persona and manipulate Xie Lian's life, making him go through horrible experiences and destroying the lavish life he once knew.

Nonetheless, after the second banishment, he told Xie Lian to keep in contact, so Xie Lian wouldn't have to suffer by himself in the mortal world. Following Xie Lian's third ascension, he helped clear Xie Lian's debt by giving him a mission to investigate the bride disappearance in Yu Jun Mountain and granted him a luxurious mansion in the nicest area of Heaven.

When Xie Lian was confronted by Lang Qianqiu, Jun Wu shielded him and this turned the attitude of the heaven toward Xie Lian as they don't want to enrage the Emperor by badmouthing the god he favored. He trusted Xie Lian above any other Heavenly Officials, even entrusting him with ruling the court while he was away to stop the birth of a new Calamity.

In return of Jun Wu's favor, Xie Lian named him one of the three people in the world he trusted unconditionally.

### Mei Nianqing

They had a good relationship before the fall of his Kingdom, as they used to be close friends. After killing his other three friends, he was afraid that Mei Nianqing would find out the truth, so he hid it as much as he could.

He thought that the reason Mei Nianqing went to teach Xie Lian was because Mei Nianqing wanted to replace him with Xie Lian and dismiss him entirely.  Mei Nianqing denied this, as he went to become the Guoshi of Xianle because he misses Wuyong's glory days and Jun Wu himself.

Mei Nianqing is the person who understands and knows Jun Wu the best.  Currently, he is living on Tonglu Mountain that Jun Wu is sealed under.

### Ling Wen

Ling Wen acts as the Emperor's right hand. She always seems to know Jun Wu's current location, and she is the only one to know the Great Martial Hall as well as the Emperor himself. She stood on the Emperor's side during court, and he would express concern whenever she seemed distracted.

## Ghosts

### Hua Cheng

Though both are rulers of opposing sides, Jun Wu holds respect for Hua Cheng. He adresses Hua Cheng as "Your Excellency" and even warned the Heavenly Officials against treading on Hua Cheng's toes.
