According to Ye Yan's Flag Demon Huan Chaojiao, Hundun was born when Heaven and Earth separated (when the Earth was formed), therefore it is billions of years old. When Ye Yan was 12 years old, he found and formed a summoning pact with Hundun, allowing him to summon it ever since.

## Personality

1/5
* **Invulnerability**: Due to its thick hide and elasticity, Hundun is literally invulnerable, capable of withstanding a hit from the Star Shattering Iron Gourd used at 100% power and deflect it, and get bombarded by the Huang Xiaoyan's Million Spell Tags Formation and remain unscathed.
* **Strength**: Hundun is extremely heavy, therefore one stomp from it is extremely fatal, as seen when it easily crushed Lan Ling and Luo Xiaobao's legs just by stepping on them. It is also able to plow through buildings with ease. However, its strength is shown to be inferior to Xi Sha since she was able to hold up its foot to prevent being stomped on.
* **Flight**: With its wings, Hundun is able to fly at high speeds.
* **Size Changing**: Hundun is able to change its size, making it able to sneak attack people by suddenly expanding when under them while it's small.
* **Adsorption**: Hundun is able to absorb objects into it using its elastic hide. Ye Yan used this ability of Hundun and unsummoned it to take away a piece of Demon Lord Armor from Che Yongtai 's previous incarnation, which reverted his power.
* **Vacuum Creation**: When laying on the ground, Hundun can create a vacuum beneath its body by pumping out the air below it in the form of flatulence. It demonstrated this ability by covering Wenjian Xian's impenetrable barrier with its body and nearly suffocating her.

## Weaknesses

* Water: Hundun is weak to water. When hit by large amounts of water, Hundun will lose its strength and size, causing it to shrink down to the size of a hand.
* Nullification Palm: Deng Yuankui's Nullification Palm is capable of nullifying Hundun, causing it to disappear and unable to be summoned for three days.
Talisman

**Talisman** are paper tags with Chinese characters and magic symbols inscribed on them with cinnabar that can create different effects when activated based on their inscriptions.

## Appearance

Talisman can be used by Untitled Sages and Sage Hunters. After creating a talisman and then spiritually bonding with it, the user will be able to use it, or multiply it to greater amounts and store them in their Sage Mind so they can summon them for later use. After summoning them, the talisman appear around the user, who can then telekinetically control them for various purposes.

While people who are not of Untitled Sage heritage cannot spiritually bond with talisman, they could activate them if they know the proper incantations. However, the tag's effects will only apply to the Untitled Sage who bonded with it, even if activated by someone else. Untitled Sage sanctums are known to sell various types of talisman that can be used by people who are not Untitled Sages, and some talisman are specifically modified to allow others to use them.

It is possible to inscribe two different functions on one talisman by writing their inscriptions on both sides of the tag. This allows the talisman to produce one of its two effects, or both effects at once.

The functions of talisman can be modified and enhanced to create greater or longer effects when used.

**Kiss Me, Gourd Girl** (吻我吧葫芦妹 *Wěn Wǒ Ba Hú Lu Mèi*) is the sixty-third chapter of Tong Yao's *Guardians of Night*.

## Summary

The serial killer makes an artistic introduction in an attempt to make Huang Xiaoyan infatuated with him, saying that it is fate he meets her after travelling six of the eight islands at the resort. Mentally noting that any hints of attraction towards him will be amplified into intense love under his Erotic Eye technique, the man intends to make Huang his love slave. However, she shows no interest at all towards him and even asks if he was talking to her. Shocked, the man is convinced that the failure was due to Huang not noticing him, and invites her to travel with him while acting bashful, believing that his handsomeness combined with his gentle demeanour would successfully seduce her. However, Huang Xiaoyan rejects his invitation, citing that she is busy and needs to take care of a shark before leaving him.

Feeling his self esteem damaged by Huang's complete disinterest in him, the killer calls for her attention. Turning around, Huang Xiaoyan is hit by a heart-shaped attack and falls unconscious. The man reveals that he used his ultimate technique **Lustful Eye** on Huang, which would cause her to fall in love and kiss the first creature of the opposite sex that she sees upon waking up, otherwise her body would explode. The man declares his intentions of kissing Huang until she suffocates before stealing her heart as punishment for ignoring him.

## Chapter Notes

* Huang Xiaoyan is incapacitated by the serial killer.

## Summary

While watching Xi Sha being changed into a new outfit by two of her demon attendants, Ximen Lan comments about her change in clothing style. Xi Sha explains that she frequently changes her style because it allows her to freely act as different characters, which is a freedom she greatly enjoys for being the ruler of the Underworld. Ximen Lan then presents a new article of clothing to Xi Sha for her to wear, who picks up a stocking made of black silk from the pile.

Moments later, Xi Sha is seen dressing herself with the black silk stockings on her bed, having already put on a sailor fuku consisting of a white blouse, a black necktie and a black pleated skirt. Remarking how the stockings make her legs appear more seductive despite covering parts of them, Xi Sha compliments Ximen Lan for his choice before ordering him to massage her sore legs. Noticing Ximen Lan blushing during the massage, Xi Sha seduces him.

An hour later, as the two lie naked under the bed sheets, Xi Sha thinks about how useful Ximen Lan is for helping her suppress Bloodstain uprisings, taking care of her living affairs, and even looking attractive. However, since she is wary of him being a spy for Bloodstain, she placed a burning incense in the corner of the bedroom beforehand that would reveal the secret mark tattooed on every Bloodstain member's forehead. Noticing that the secret mark did not appear on Ximen Lan, Xi Sha performs a final test of loyalty by biting off flesh from his shoulder and eating it, much to the former's shock. Using her ability to read memories after consuming someone's flesh, Xi Sha finds no memories regarding the leader of Bloodstain, though she does discover that Ximen Lan used to romantically love a certain brown-haired woman. Clearing her doubts, Xi Sha asks Ximen Lan to be her lover, hoping to strengthen his loyalty towards her. Although taken aback, a flustered Ximen Lan agrees.

The chapter ends with a pitch-black panel as Xi Sha comments how strange humans are.

## Chapter Notes

* It is revealed that Xi Sha's previous incarnation had a romantic and sexual relationship with Ximen Lan.

## Chapter Guide

**You Who Turned Into the Stars** (化作星星的你 *Huà Zuò Xīng Xīng De Nǐ*) is the thirty-seventh chapter of Tong Yao's *Guardians of Night*.

## Summary

In the Underworld, as the Defender of the Left finishes his recovery and prepares to use Eye of Dimensions again, Yan Wen speculates that since Che Yongtai was in a good enough mood to even remove his armor, he might not actively try to kill anyone. But if something in the human world were to purposefully provoke him, the demon lord would still reactively kill them. The two demons then look through the portal and see a train rapidly approaching Che Yongtai, much to their shock.

Che Yongtai holds out his right hand and prepares to kill the people in the train as it closes in on him, terrifying Left-hand Man who believes that the entire train is doomed. However, instead of stopping or destroying the train, Che Yongtai collides with it, critically injuring him and knocking him unconscious. As the two train drivers call for an ambulance, the observation spell ends while the two shocked demons rant about his apparent weakness despite being a world-destroying demon lord.

Some time later in a hospital's operating room, a surgeon finishes his surgery on Che Yongtai while expressing his astonishment at the man's resilience since he is alive despite being hit by a train. As the surgeons leave to take a break, Che Yongtai wakes up and wonders where he is. He remembers being knocked unconscious by the train and expresses his desire to destroy it when he sees it again. Taking off his oxygen mask, Che Yongtai exits the room, scaring several nurses who shriek at him for being a pervert and run away. Che Yongtai is confused by their reactions and thinks he forgot to act cute, oblivious to the fact that he is naked. He walks over to the poster he saw the girls surrounding, which was an advertisement for a veterinary specialist in the hospital's northern sector. The man in the poster was wearing a black business suit with a red tie and was holding a monkey. Believing that his attire is what girls are attracted to, Che Yongtai snaps his fingers and manifests clothing of the same design on himself. He then hears two patients nearby asking if he is magician, as they witnessed his clothing creation spell. Ignoring the question, Che Yongtai says that since all the girls ran away, he will kill everyone on the floor to relieve his boredom.

## Characters in Order of Appearance

* Yan Wen
* Defender of the Left
* Che Yongtai

## Trivia

The poster Che Yongtai saw is a reference to the popular South Korean fantasy romantic comedy television series *My Love from the Star*, whose Chinese title is *来自星星的你* (*Lái Zì Xīng Xīng De Nǐ*, literally meaning "You Who Came from the Stars"). The poster's left side reads *来治猩猩的你* (*Lái Zhì Xīng Xīng De Nǐ*), a homphonic pun on the television series' title which literally translates to "You Who Came to Cure Apes".

She then takes off Ye Yan's swimming goggles, commenting about his handsomeness and learning that he is a cultivator. She notes that even though she is in the lead in supplement intake, it would be a shame to not collect such a high quality bloodstone. As she is about to kiss Ye Yan, Xi Sha suddenly appears behind her and tries to bite her. The woman manages to dodge the attack as the demon lord calls her an evil woman for attempting to kiss Ye Yan while he is asleep, before kneeling down to kiss him herself. The lady addresses her as a "little girl" and asks where she came from. Insulted at being called a little girl, Xi Sha threatens to bite the woman into pieces and chases her.

Meanwhile on the lake, a law enforcement officer accompanies the two men from earlier on a boat and questions the existence of a shark, noting that the lake is artificially made and is too small for a shark to be in and believing that someone is pulling a prank. At the same time, Xi Sha is chasing the woman through the water, who is wearing the shark fin hat. The men on the boat see the shark fin approaching them and remark its incredible speed. As the two women swim past them, Xi Sha opens her mouth and takes a bite out of the wooden boat. Seeing the teeth marks on the destroyed boat, the officer is convinced of the existence of a shark and flees with the other two men. Their cries are heard by the group of otakus around Huang Xiaoyan. Fearing for their lives, they escape to other islands, leaving Huang by herself on the shoal. Thinking that the murderer might have fled due to the shark, Huang Xiaoyan gets up and prepares to get rid of it herself. She is then approached by the man with purplish-red hair.

As Ye Yan and Huang Xiaoyan use several of their attacks off-screen, Wang Shengli comments about how unpredictable and energetic battles between youngsters are, and how it makes him remember his own passionate past. Wuren warns Wang Shengli while he is reminiscing that if the battle continues, the school will be destroyed, revealing that the two guardians have destroyed multiple school buildings. He proposes to stop them himself, but Wang Shengli says that he will do it himself. As he does some stretches to prepare, his assistant remarks that the school will be gone if he doesn't hurry.

Chapter 70

## Chapter Guide

**The Last Two Bloodstones** (最后两颗血石 *Zuì Hòu Liǎng Kē Xuè Shí*) is the seventieth chapter of Tong Yao's *Guardians of Night*.

## Summary

Wang Shengli receives a call from the police department, who reports that within the last year there were 26 accidental death cases where the victim's heart disappeared without external injuries throughout the country, with 15 male victims and 11 female victims. They further inform him that public security was not concerned about the incidents since the cases were scattered around the country. After thanking the operator for their service, Wang hangs up.

Adding up the three deaths in the resort, Wang realizes that the number of deaths is dangerously close to 32, which is the number of bloodstones Double Devils need to fuse together and combine their strength and defense, which would tremendously increase their power. Wang immediately calls Wuren to warn him of the predicament and urges him to quickly find the Double Devils. Wuren relays that they have already located one of the Double Devils, much to Wang's relief who orders him to closely monitor the murderer as he prepares to leave to aid them. However, just as he is about to depart his superior officer finishes his meeting and meets him.

Wuren relays the information that the Double Devils are three bloodstones away from combining to Li Lingbiao as they run towards the island in front of them. Upon arriving on the island, they immediately see Yue Wushuang and identify her as one of the Double Devils due to her long purple hair. The two hide behind a bush, with Wuren whispering that since they do not know whether she is the Attacker or Defender, they must not act rash and instead closely follow her so that Wang Shengli can better locate them and take care of the situation. However, upon realizing that Che Yongtai's heart was stolen by Yue Wushuang, Li emerges from the bushes and goes to his aid, much to Wushuang's delight as she was worried about finding people to collect bloodstones from. Enraged at Wushuang for killing Che, Li swears to make her pay for his death.

## Chapter Notes

* Wuren and Li Lingbiao confront Yue Wushuang.
Cang Sang

Cang Sang was a wolf monster. He was also the leader of the Nine Wolves in the Northern Wolf Tribe.

## Background

Cang Sang was born as a wolf monster in the Northern Wolf Tribe, and he was one of the nine strongest wolves. Eventually, he was acknowledged as the strongest amongst the other eight, formed the Nine Wolves of the Northern Wolf Tribe, and became their leader.

## Personality

Cang Sang was an extremely proud wolf monster who held pride in his strength, as shown when he proclaimed that he will personally kill the people who killed Cang Shui and Cang Ri, who are his subordinates.

However, this pride was easily shattered and replaced with cowardice when he heard from one of the Seven Wolves (due the death of Cang Shui and Cang Ri) that the murderers were guardians. Instead of boasting to kill them, he suggested peacefully and respectfully negotiating with the guardians.

He also isn't quite intelligent, as it took him a while to realize that there were two spies in his meeting with the other wolves.

## Appearance

Like the other wolf monsters, Cang Sang has a humanoid body with dark fur and a wolf-like head that has light brown human hair on top and a goatee on his chin. He has been shown to be very muscular, and is even capable of significantly enlarging his body when preparing to attack.

During his appearance, he wore a red hood over his head and shoulders, which is the official attire for members of the Nine Wolves.

## Abilities and Powers

Though he hasn't been shown fighting once, it can be assumed that he shares skills with his two subordinates since they are the same species.

### Northern Wolf Tribe exclusive techniques

**Transformation**: Cang Sang can transform himself into his human form or wolf form whenever he wants. This is a technique exclusive to his species, therefore things such as God Restraining Cages won't disable it. He can also purposely make normal people see his wolf form if he wants to, otherwise people will only see his human form's naked body. Additionally, he is capable of enlarging his body to presumably increase his strength.

**Enhanced stamina increase and recover**: Due to being a wolf monster, Cang Sang has stamina ten times greater than a human's and recovers stamina ten times faster than a human.

**Strength increase**: Due to being a wolf monster, Cang Sang's strength will increase drastically after seeing blood.
Chapter 10

## Chapter Guide

**Fate Brings Us Together Once Again** (有缘千里再相会 *Yǒu Yuán Qiān Lǐ Zài Xiāng Huì*) is the tenth chapter of Tong Yao's *Guardians of Night*.

## Summary

Wuren reports to Wang Shengli that the new Untitled Sage has transferred to Bozhou Xiahou High School. Wang Shengli remarks that "the chosen ones" are starting to gather, and that the new era might have hope after all. Wuren suggests to refer them to their "guide", but Wang requests to observe them a bit longer, noting that a guardian's duty is to supervise both worlds while living in a worldly society. If they can not properly adopt to life in the new age, Wang proposes that the new guardians be replaced as soon as possible.

Meanwhile, back at the classroom, the male students ogle Huang Xiaoyan and declare her as their "goddess". Ye Yan lifts his eye mask after waking up from his sleep due to the commotion, only to see Huang Xiaoyan standing before him, causing him to fall onto the ground in his chair out of fright. As their classmates speculate their relationship, Ye Yan greets Huang Xiaoyan, who recounts the times Ye Yan injured her in a vague and unknowingly suggestive manner. When Ye Yan tries to run away, she catches him and yells at him, stating that "as a man, [he] must take responsbility". This causes their classmates to misunderstand their relationship and believe that Ye Yan had a sexual relationship with Huang Xiaoyan and unfaithfully discarded her.

Ye Yan is later seen kneeling before Huang Xiaoyan on the rooftop of a building, with their class's male students watching from afar. He claims that he will accept any physical punishment from Huang Xiaoyan so long she doesn't remove a part of his body. Instead, Huang Xiaoyan demands to live in Ye Yan's home.

Instead of answering her question, Ximen Lan urges her to escape with her last bit of strength, revealing that he actually does not want her to die and only said he came to collect her corpse in a moment of anger. However, Xi Sha laments that she has nowhere to run since she would lose all her respect as a demon lord for fleeing a fight. However, Ximen Lan insists that it is better to live than die and stands between Xi Sha and King Chujiang, much to the latter's annoyance. The demon king orders Ximen Lan to move aside or suffer as he raises his right fist. At the same time, Xi Sha also commands him to do the same, asserting that she doesn't need his pity. Ximen Lan refuses both orders and is caught in the crossfire between Xi Sha and King Chujiang's energy attacks, which results in a tremendous explosion upon clashing. King Chujiang's attack manages to mortally wound Xi Sha due to his tripled power.

As the dust settles, Xi Sha lays on the ground defeated while Ximen Lan's corpse rests nearby. The male Bloodstain member condemns King Chujiang for killing their ally. The demon king questions why the Gravekeeper was allowed into the organization and remain neutral despite being so temperamental while the female member assures the male member that Gravekeepers can revive themselves.

As Ximen Lan's corpse teleports to the human world in a flash of light, King Chujiang prepares to kill Xi Sha. However, the demon lord uses **Evil Flame Recreation** and escapes in a ball of fire. The male member urges the demon king to pursue her, but the latter states that they have no need to. He explains that his attack earlier directly damaged Xi Sha's soul, and her soul will soon be completely corroded, which would irrecoverably destroy her body. He then gloats about reclaiming the Underworld for himself.

While escaping, Xi Sha begins to recreate her body while narrating that she did not flee in fear of death, but because she found a clue regarding the leader of Bloodstain. She reveals that when she bit Ximen Lan, she learned the spell password for meeting the leader, who used an encrypted spatial magic spell to hide her location from Xi Sha. Arriving at the entrance portal for the spell, Xi Sha enters a series of portals within it corresponding to the password "223698", allowing her to teleport to the location of the leader of Bloodstain, who is inside a stone building.

## Chapter Notes

* Ximen Lan dies and is revived by teleporting to the human world.
* Xi Sha confronts the leader of Bloodstain.
Mu Lulu

**Mu Lulu** was the leader of Bloodstain, a revolutionary organization that sought to depose and kill Xi Sha's previous incarnation, eventually succeeding in 1860. However, Mu Lulu herself was killed by Xi Sha in a fit of rage.

## Background

Mu Lulu was once a regular human girl engaged to a Nightwatcher named Ye Chen. However, after the death of her fiancé at the hands of Xi Sha, she dedicated her entire life and resources to kill the demon lord. Using her puppeteering skills, she created a puppet to mask her identity and formed Bloodstain in the Underworld, ignoring the detrimental effects of residing within the realm has on herself. The organization frequently organised terrorist attacks in the Underworld and incited defection amongst its populace, slowly weakening Xi Sha's body and her control over the realm while avoiding capture and extermination using teleportation and dimension-hopping. Their efforts ultimately culminated in a successful assassination attempt in 1860, though Xi Sha was able to confront Mu Lulu moments before her death, and consequently killed and ate her in order to learn her motives.

Pu Wenshan

Pu Wenshan was the second Boss of the Kurokuchi Gang before passing the position to his daughter Tianran Fei. He is also an entrepreneur and the husband of Tianran Fang, a national airgun running target champion.

## Background

After his predecessor either passed away or passed on the position, Pu Wenshan became the second Boss of the Kurokuchi Gang in Dong Guan. At some point in his life after becoming the leader, he became an entrepreneur in business and married Tianran Fang. Due to the dangerous state of Dong Guan, Tianran Fang took their daughter Tianran Fei abroad so they won't be harmed. Pu Wenshan was once arrested, and after being released, thousands of Kurokuchi Gang members voluntarily escorted him. He also ordered Kurokuchi Gang members to snipe terrorists in other countries. Two years before his appearance in the story, he pretended to be injured and sat in a wheelchair so he can have an excuse to give up his position to his daughter.

## Personality

Unlike most people in Dong Guan, Pu Wenshan is really peaceful, as he always tries to peacefully negotiate with other gangs (however they usually end up violent due to Cang Shui's instigation).

He is also caring to his subordinates, as seen when he exposed Cang Shui for trying to poison him but still forgave him and gave him money worth spending a lifetime.

He is shown to be very calm about the supernatural and not terrified like other normal people, as shown when he only seemed surprised when Cang Shui transformed into his wolf form.

## Appearance

Pu Wenshan appears to be a man in his mid-40s, he has short black hair, red eyes and wears glasses. He has a well toned body physique due to practicing marital arts since he was young.

## Abilities and Powers

According to Cang Shui, Pu Wenshan has been practicing martial arts since he was young and that his Chin Na techniques are unstoppable. This is proven true as he was able to easily neutralise Cang Shui in his human form. He is also shown to be proficient in Chaquan , as seen when he was able to use it in conjunction with Chin Na.

* **Chaquan: Water Skimming Swallow** (查拳: 飞燕抄水): A technique that involves the use of Chaquan and Chin Na in conjunction. Pu Wenshan quickly grabs the attacker's arm, rotates behind them and lock their arm. After this move is successful, Pu Wenshan can permanently dislocate the person's arm if he wants to.

## Summary

Ye Yan is relieved that Ximen Guanren captured the zombie alive and prepares to interrogate it. However, when the restrained zombie opens its eyes and looks at Ximen, he took it as the zombie refusing to surrender and glaring at him. In anger, Ximen declares his name, Gravekeeper identity, and his enrollment at Xiahou High School before crushing the zombie to death. The splattered blood creates a gory scene, which horrifies the onlooking crowd of civilians. Wuren reaches into his suit and withdraws a black leather glove. Putting it on his right hand, he swiftly rushes through the crowd while punching everyone in the face. A shocked Ye Yan chastises him for murdering the witnesses, but Wuren corrects him and tells him to observe the onlookers. The crowd of people uniformly began to comment about how violent gang warfares are and how they want to head home and sleep, believing the blood to be a result of a gang war. Wuren then tells Ye Yan that he used the Memory Erasing Punch on the crowd to replace their memories, explaining the principles behind the technique.

Ximen Guanren calls attention to the corpse of the zombie. The three men notice that the zombie's corpse is glowing, before it explodes into a spell tag, which Ye Yan recognizes as belonging to an Untitled Sage. Ximen Guanren notices a negative aura around the talisman, which the other two are unable to see, and traces its origins to the top of a nearby tall building. The trail eventually ends at Gu Xiaohua's necklace, who snidely remarks that she forgot Gravekeeper can see negative energy.

## Summary

Having been stopped by Ye Yan, Che Yongtai angrily demands him to introduce himself. However, Ye Yan ignores the question, as he is fascinated by the materials and artisanship of the Demon Lord Armor. Irritated, Che Yongtai is about to attack Ye Yan before he comments that his "costume" is incredibly high-end and asks if he is a rich man with great power. Assuming Ye Yan intuitively addressed him as such due to his status, Che Yongtai chooses to spare him for being an "insightful small fry". A girl then approaches the two and asks for selfie with them. Seeing the demon lord blush, Ye Yan asks if he is nervous around girls, with Che Yongtai reluctantly agreeing while mentally noting that the "creatures" are called "girls". Noticing Che Yongtai's stiff expression, Ye Yan asks if it's his first time cosplaying, with the demon lord asking what is cosplaying in return. The Nightwatcher responds by saying cosplaying is similar to performance art, with Che Yongtai asking what is performance art. Ye Yan then whispers to Che Yongtai that girls love performances with dialogue and poses, confusing the demon lord. He then makes a cute pose and speech, causing the three girls from earlier to surround and dote on him. Che Yongtai acknowledges his skills in attracting ladies.

Meanwhile in the Underworld, Yan Wen orders the Defender of the Left to open the Eye of Dimensions again, but the latter responds that he still needs time to recover since the spell is extremely taxing. She tells him to hurry so they can keep watch over Che Yongtai. As the Defender of the Left uses the spell again, Yan Wen wonders if the demon lord has gotten bored and began killing men. As the two look through the portal, they see Che Yongtai dressed in a white rabbit suit dancing alongside Ye Yan to a song while being cheered on by a crowd of people, causing them to spit out blood in shock.

While dancing, Ye Yan points out that being cute attracts ladies better than wearing fantastical armor, which Che Yongtai agrees with while blushing. After the performance, the two bow and take pictures with fans. The two then bid each other goodbye some time later while Ye Yan carries a bag of props with him. Being in a good mood, Che Yongtai postpones his plans for killing all the humans sans girls to the next day and wanders onto the railroad tracks. As he thinks about how to find the Heaven Crystal, a train approaches him from behind. The two train drivers notice Che Yongtai but realize they won't be able to stop the train in time. Taking notice of the incoming train, Che Yongtai believes that someone is purposefully trying to hit him with the train and holds out his hand, preparing to stop the vehicle.
