## Plot Relevance

### **Book 2**

She is very bashful towards He Yiming's boldness. She and He Yiming, at first, don't act like husband and concubine as they sleep in different rooms and don't engage in sensual activity - their relationship was mostly platonic. Yuan Lixun was only requested by He Yiming to be his concubine for the sake of his brother, He Yitian who wanted to take Yuan Lixun's older sister, Yuan Liwen as his concubine.

She later tries to be useful and copies down manuals requested by He Yiming due to her talent at calligraphy. He Yiming gradually develops emotions for her and acknowledges Yuan Lixun, deep in his heart, as his wife. After killing the two-headed Xiantian spirit beast, He Yiming gains the White Stone which increases the rate of cultivation for a Houtian Realm cultivator. He gifts this to Yuan Lixun and also gives her gold cores which, by then, are common to him.

### **Book 3**

With these items, her cultivation speed is praised by He Yiming and her progression to the 7th layer of Houtian is a month faster than even He Yiming himself. A week before the Xiantian fair, she was injured by a prince of Tu Fan Country, Bu Xingcong. She was left with a whip mark on her face. He Yiming fell was enraged and went to kill Bu Xingcong and broke through to the Xiantian Realm - Single Heaven Stage in the process while trying to battling the proclaimed 'first under Single Heaven', Mu Jintian. After becoming a Single Heaven Staged Xiantian, Bu Xingcong was handed over by Mu Jintian for him to be butchered by He Yiming. The scar left by Bu Xingcong could be healed by either the Face Halting Pill or by progressing in cultivation and becoming a Xiantian. From then on, Yuan Lixun put all her efforts into cultivation.

Yuan Lixun was later exploited by Sima Yin as a weakness of He Yiming - she was targetted repeatedly during Sima Yin and He Yiming's confrontation. Sick of being a weakness of He Yiming, she put in her heart the dream to become a Xiantian cultivator.

Later, He Yiming confronts Bai Lingba. Bai Lingba offers He Yiming a deal: give him the White Stone in exchange for protection; He Yiming, at first, refuses and has confidence that he can guarantee his own safety. Bai Lingba then offers for Yuan Lixun's cultivation to be promoted to the Xiantian Realm in exchange for the White Stone and He Yiming accepts. Through the use of a Xiantian Pill and gene liquid, Bai Lingba successfully promoted her to Xiantian Realm.

After making a breakthrough to the Xiantian Realm, Yuan Lixun had a change of personality. Her bashful gaze and her always hiding behind He Yiming stopped; she became bolder.
