**Lan Ying Yue** (蓝映月, *Lán Yìng Yuè*), courtesy name **Lan Yukong** (蓝驭空, *Lán Yùkōng*) is the current leader of the Wanning Shuiyu branch of the main Gusu Lan Clan. She is the daughter of two unknown rogue cultivators, and the adoptive sister of Lan Yezi who passed leadership onto her shoulders before her death.

She is the Master of Ming Yue Peak (one of the highest-ranked peaks in the sect) and as such holds a position as one of the revered Wanning Shuiyu's **Wufang Shangdi** (五方上帝 "Five Regions' Highest Deities" or "Highest Deities of the Five Regions"), having even trained the original and founding members of the Twelve Swords's masters.

## Appearance

Tall and slender, Lan Yukong bears a strong resemblance to Lan Yezi and her children, leading to the mistaken impression that Yezi and Yukong are indeed sisters. There are two major differences between them: first, that Lan Yukong's irises are molded in the shape of crescent moons while being gentler and darker than Yezi's eyes, and second, that Lan Yukong's facial expressions are far more mischevious than that of her adoptive older sister.

She wears green and white robes with a matching light bamboo-green dragon-shaped hairpin, wearing the white ribbon of her clansmen around her wrist.

## Personality

Lan Yukong has a distinctly loud voice and boisterous personality, something that passed down to her adoptive nephew Lan Jingyi. Due to her tendency to be somewhat careless and straightfoward, leading to her being open and honest about her opinions far beyond what any ordinary clan leader would dare express outwardly. This may be in part due to her childhood being raised on an isolated mountain and her rebellion against her clan's elders.

Incredibly hot-tempered, she is quick to scold people for their conduct, though she often disobeys the main Gusu Lan Clan's rules herself with activities such as talking behind others' backs and sneaking alcohol, making this trait quite hypocritical. Her adoptive nephew Lan Jingyi considers Lan Yukong to be a fair and just person, as she only punishes when she has all of the correct facts as part of her information gathering. Amongst the Peak Lords, Lan Yukong has the highest emotional intelligence and the least leniancy when it comes to stupidity, even only reputably physically kicking several of her bone-headed disciples off the side of a mountain.

## Quotes

* (To Lan Jingyi) "*Our eternal vow is meant to temper our souls in the afterlife, grasp too firmly at straws and you might find yourself destroying them instead.*"

## Trivia

* Lan Yukong is scared of healers, to the point of needing to be incipactitated in order to be healed.
* The eternal vow of servitude that is sworn amongst the Peak Lords is meant to prevent their souls from accumulating resentment in the afterlife whenever they chose to ascend to the heavens.
* Despite knowing that she and her entire sect would be killed by the cultivation world if the truth was discovered, Lan Yukong and her entire sect decided to shelter the Demon Emperor's family from their pursuers.
