## Appearance

Su Yan is described as a beautiful young woman with a frosty expression. She has an enchantingly graceful and slender physique to accompany her cool and indifferent aura.

## Personality

Su Yan outwardly has an ice cold personality, with an extremely chilly demeanor. However, she shows a warm and loving side around Yang Kai and her friends.

## Background

Skilled in the Ice Attribute, Su Yan's already outstanding aptitude and talent would be helped tremendously by acquiring the Ancestral Phoenix Source in the Cave of Inheritance back in her original world, and practicing Dual Cultivation with Yang Kai. In most of the higher worlds she has entered, her extraordinary aptitude and talent has been praised as Heaven-defying by her resident Honored Masters. This has made her the prized disciple of numerous Sects.

After developing her Divine Spirit Bloodline in Ancestral Land, and receiving the legacy of her Phoenix Nest, Su Yan gained some relatively significant attainments in the **Dao of Space**.

## History

### High Heaven Pavilion

Su Yan is introduced as a 20 year old Core Disciple of High Heaven Pavilion. She initially met Yang Kai due to her brother,Su Mu, having a multitude of interactions with the latter. Eventually, Yang Kai, while visiting her house near High Heaven Pavilion, stumbles upon a naked Su Yan as she finishes bathing. Su Yan then attacks Yang Kai in a rage, sticking him in a block of Ice. Surprisingly, Yang Kai comprehends a new skill during this experience and eventually frees himself.

Later, Su Yan and Yang Kai end up becoming the winners of the inheritance left behind by the "Dragon Emperor" and "Phoenix Empress" of Tong Xuan Realm. However, accepting this inheritance requires both a male and female to practice a mutually beneficial Dual Cultivation Secret Art, which will link them together as lovers for life. After some consideration, both Su Yan and Yang Kai accept this proposition. As they start to practice the technique, they notice that it greatly increases both their cultivation levels in addition to establishing a special connection between the two. Later, when High Heaven Pavilion is attacked, Su Yan is separated from Yang Kai in a Void Corridor during their escape.

### Inheritance War

Later, Su Yan meets Yang Kai's parents after reuniting with the latter during the Inheritance War. After getting to know them, Su Yan takes the initiative to also introduce them to the ever-so-shy Xia Ning Chang. Later, when Yang Bai makes an attempt to access the Void Corridor under the Central Capital of the Eight Great Families, Su Yan follows Yang Kai's trail as he pursues the former. However, when Yang Bai self-destructs in defeat, Su Yan, along with Meng Wu Ya and Xia Ning Chang, ends up separated from Yang Kai as she plunders toward Tong Xuan Realm.

### Ice Sect

Meng Wu Ya takes Su Yan to Ice Sect, who are not friendly to outsiders, and warns them that one day Yang Kai will come for Su Yan. Su Yan's temporary master, Qian Yue, adores her and her outstanding aptitude. When Yang Kai shows up to Ice Sect to find Su Yan, Qian Yue is furious and refuses to allow him to see her. Yang Kai greatly damages Ice Sect and holds their entire discipline hostage with the Soul Devouring Insects and forces Sect Master Qing Ya to allow him to see Su Yan.

Soon, Yang Kai finds out that, due to a Secret Art, Su Yan is stuck in Ice. After communicating with Su Yan's Soul using the Yin-Yang Joyous Unification Art, Yang Kai is informed by Su Yan that she is okay, and that she will leave and find him once she breaks through. During this time, Su Yan and Yang Kai's Souls temporarily merge with their True Qi to form Phoenix and Dragon entities, and they temporarily fly throughout the Ice Sect’s surroundings.

### The Starry Sky

Later, the secretly dormant Bone Race, as ancient invaders of Tong Xuan Realm and old enemies of the Ice Sect, reawakens after Yang Kai destroys the Spirit Array that hid Tong Xuan Realm from the Starry Sky, causing Great Demon God's last remaining aura to disappear. The Bone Race subsequently ransacks the Ice Sect. Su Yan manages to escape to the Heng Luo Star Field through the use of an ancient spaceship buried in the Ice Sect along with Qing Ya, Qian Yue, and Qian Hao as the only surviving members.

### Ice Heart Valley

Su Yan again becomes a top disciple of Ice Heart Valley on Scarlet Wave Star. This time her new master, Ran Yun Ting, has her practice a Secret Art that requires her to be emotionless. She notices that Su Yan is starting to fail this technique at the 1st Order Origin Returning Realm when a wanted poster of a young man appears in Ice Heart Valley, and becomes angry after Su Yan tells her she actually has a husband. The wanted poster displays Yang Kai, as he is the man their enemy, Brilliant Flame Sect, is looking for at the behest of Green Mountain Star's 2nd Order Origin King Realm Star Master, Luo Hai. When Yang Kai eventually shows up in Ice Heart Valley, Ran Yun Ting immediately attacks the connection between Su Yan and the former, which prevents them from seeing or communicating with one another. Su Yan is helpless as Ran Yun Ting even tries to have Qing Ya, now a lower disciple, killed. However, Yang Kai rescues Qing Ya and defeats Ran Yun Ting in combat.

Eventually, Su Yan finally reunites with Yang Kai, and they meet with the leadership of Ice Heart Valley, Fire Brilliance Sect, and Luo Hai. Brilliant Flame Sect's Supreme Elder wants to marry Su Yan off to the son of the Sect Master. Ice Heart Valley, fearful of Luo Hai, eventually agrees to this request. Su Yan then tells Ice Heart Valley that she is leaving the Sect to go with Yang Kai. Yang Kai gives Su Yan the rest of her Ancestral Phoenix Source inheritance that he had temporarily carried since his time on Tong Xuan, and they then practice the Yin-Yang Joyous Unification Art to break through to the peak of the 2nd Order Origin Returning Realm. They then use a Star Emperor Token to kill Luo Hai, the Brilliant Flame Sect Supreme Elder, and the Sect's Young Master.

The Supreme Elder of Ice Heart Valley, ashamed, eventually allows Su Yan to enter the Sect's Heavenly Blessings Frozen Pond, where she receives the Sect's greatest inheritance in the Profound Frost Divine Sword. Luo Li then explains to Su Yan and Yang Kai that this Sword belonged to the Sect's Ancestral Founder, Bing Yun, whom Luo Li believes is still alive. Having healed Luo Li, Yang Kai proceeds to lead Ice Heart Valley in destroying the now Origin King-less Brilliant Flame Sect before departing with Su Yan toward Shadowed Star.

### Ancestral Domain

Before departing for Star Boundary, Yang Kai spends a year with Su Yan, Xia Ning Chang, Shan Qing Luo, and Xue Yue. However, 20 years before Yang Kai's return to the Heng Luo Star Field, Su Yan departs to find him and ends up in the Ancestral Domain. There, she joins Red Clouds Sect, where she once again shows outstanding aptitude by quickly reaching the 1st Order Dao Source Realm. However, the Young Master of Red Clouds Sect courts her and is rejected. Angered, he has his father send her away to mines that strongly conflict with her cultivation so that she cannot become more powerful. Su Yan would peacefully remain here until she learns that Yang Kai has returned. When she is planning to leave the mine, the Young Master of Red Clouds Sect shows up and, upon Su Yan's refusal to be with him, sets his two Dao Source Realm guards on her. Su Yan, despite being weakened, easily slays these two guards, and quickly deduces that this was due to the fact that they were suppressed by Yang Kai. Su Yan then finally reunites with her husband.

### Meeting the Founder

In Star Boundary, Su Yan follows Yang Kai to Ice Heart Valley, where Yang Kai introduces her to Bing Yun for teaching. Though Bing Yun happily takes her on as a disciple, she admits that she doesn't actually have much time to teach Su Yan personally. This leads to Ji Yao, who is not-so-secretly in love with Yang Kai, taking responsibility for Su Yan's teaching instead. Su Yan then becomes a Core Disciple of Ice Heart Valley.

### Demon War

When Yang Kai goes to Demon Realm in an attempt to rescue the Bright Moon Great Emperor, Su Yan stays safely within High Heaven Palace along with Zhu Qing, Shan Qing Luo, Xia Ning Chang, and Xue Yue. When Yang Kai returns from Demon Realm, the five wives immediately gather to greet him. After Yang Kai is given the position of Army Commander, he spends several days having sex with Su Yan and the other wives on one of the Spirit Peaks of High Heaven Palace. Su Yan would later join in Yang Kai's army as a Battalion Commander under Liu Yan.

Su Yan, Bing Yun, and Ji Yao meet with Yang Kai while the Star Boundary Regiments are situated outside the Western Territory Two World's Passage in preparation to invade Demon Realm. Su Yan recognizes that her Senior Sister Ji Yao has feelings for her husband, and finds an excuse along with Bing Yun to give them some privacy with each other. Su Yan would later test the World Beads out for Yang Kai after he perfects their refining.

Later, Su Yan joins the other wives in the Final Battle of Star Boundary, and is devastated when Yang Kai seemingly dies after taking Mo Sheng's most devastating attack into the Void. However, she quickly calms herself and deduces that Yang Kai must have survived, as Star Boundary would present an inborn phenomenon if a Great Emperor fell. Sure enough, Yang Kai returns to battle stronger than ever, and leads the forces of Star Boundary to victory. After the war, Su Yan and other wives spend some years with Yang Kai before he closes up to start his cultivation toward Open Heaven Realm. Yang Kai would then eventually depart from a dying Star Boundary in order to find a way to save it.

### Void Land

Eventually Yang Kai returns to plant the World Tree in Star Boundary. During this time, Su Yan is involved in intercourse between Yang Kai and the rest of his wives, excluding Zhu Qing, in High Heaven Palace. Due to the power gap between the Void Great Emperor and his wives, they are all said to be thoroughly "defeated" in this encounter. Afterwards, Su Yan and Yu Ru Meng would proceed to force Yang Kai into accepting Ji Yao as a new wife before she personally goes to Ice Heart Valley in order to officially inform Bing Yun of the matter. Su Yan and the wives then follow Yang Kai to Void Land.

Later, Yang Kai returns to Void Land from Ancestral Land with the Phoenix Variant Divine Spirit Hong Hu. Su Yan, Zhu Qing, Shan Qing Luo, and all the other Divine Spirits then follow along with Hong Hu back to Ancestral Land in order to strengthen and purify their Divine Spirit Bloodlines. While in Ancestral Land, Yang Kai learned that Su Yan's Source actually belonged to the Antiquity Ice Phoenix Empress, who was lost in the Void along with the Dragon Emperor in a war with a Black Giant Spiritual God.

While at Ink Battlfield's No-Return Pass, Yang Kai visits the true Phoenix Clan’s Nirvana Chinese Parasol Tree where he finds Su Yan’s personal Phoenix Nest. Here, Su Yan would later receive the inheritance of strength belonging to her Ancestral Phoenix Source, enabling her to become proficient in the Dao of Space.

### Spatial Territory

Su Yan and the other wives, all having reached 7th Rank Open Heaven Realm or its equivalent, would be ordered by the 36 Cave Heavens and 72 Paradises to help, along with all the other 2nd Class Influences, in keeping the Ink Clan from breaking through the Spatial Territory into the 3,000 Worlds. Placed under the protection of Yin-Yang Heaven's Smiles Old Ancestor, Yang Kai's wives would prove to be capable of collectively contending with a Territory Lord. Eventually, Su Yan gets an induction with Yang Kai through her Yin-Yang Joyous Unification Art, and the wives are ecstatic to learn he is still alive. Yu Ru Meng, as a de-facto leader among the wives, orders them all to immediately head towards him. However, before they could meet with him again, Yang Kai returned to Ink Battlefield in order to seal the gate between No-Return Pass and the Spatial Territory.

### Mysterious Nether Army

Riding on their own unique and extremely protective battleship, which is actually a 7th Rank equivalent clone of Bi Xi, Su Yan and the other wives would finally see Yang Kai again when the latter miraculously rescues the Mysterious Nether Army from imminent defeat by the Ink Clan. At first shying away from warmly greeting Yang Kai due to Yu Ru Meng's anger over his 1,000 year abandonment, the wives eventually warm up to the former when he convincingly exaggerates the extent of his injuries. Eventually, Yang Kai is named Army Commander of the Mysterious Nether Army, placing all of his wives, except for the Star Boundary stationed Xia Ning Chang, under his direct command along with millions of Human Race/Divine Spirit Allied Forces. During his relatively limited free time, Yang Kai stays with his wives in his own temporary Palace, with no one daring to say anything about it.

In his first action as Army Commander, Yang Kai leads a relatively small force to Yearning Territory in order to rescue some Human Race wanderers and independent strike teams that are hiding out within a Universe Cave Heaven. His 8 wives accompany him on this endeavor, and they actually manage to help Yang Kai kill a powerful innate Territory Lord. After the mission is successfully completed, Yang Kai's wives eventually make their return to Mysterious Nether Territory.

### Withdrawing Ink Army

Having proven herself through meritorious service in the 3,000 Worlds War against the Ink Clan, the 8th Rank Open Heaven Realm Su Yan would be selected as a Division Chief for the Withdrawing Ink Army, whose extremely dangerous mission is to help guard the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction where Ink's true body is restrained. Though initially uncomfortable with holding such a large responsibility, Su Yan is comforted when she learns that the experienced and strategically savvy Yu Ru Meng will serve among her unit. Over the next couple thousand years, they help to whittle down the Ink forces building up within the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction with the aid of a powerful Artifact known as the Withdrawing Ink Platform.

However, around the time the 3,000 Worlds are recaptured by the now 9th Rank Open Heaven Realm Yang Kai and other Human Race forces, Ink’s true body starts to stir from its slumber within the restriction. Wu Kuang, as the current master of the now rapidly expanding restriction, is then forced to take the entire Withdrawing Ink Army into a safe and separate space for preservation. Here, Su Yan and the other wives manage to safely await Yang Kai’s return to the restriction with news of the recapturing of the 3,000 Worlds and No-Return Pass.

### Nirvana

Later, after Ink’s main body awakens, destroys the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction, and releases the countless Ink Clan powerhouses previously held within it upon the remaining Human Race army, Su Yan is among several Divine Spirits to assist a besieged Zhang Ruo Xi, who now controls the power of Sun's Burning Light and Moon's Serene Glimmer, as the latter faces down hundreds of Royal Lords. Using the power of the Yellow and Blue Siblings’ sources, Su Yan and 7 other Divine Spirits join Ruo Xi in a Nine Palace Formation to successfully kill over 200 Royal Lords.

However, of the 8 Divine Spirits, only Yang Xiao and a Pi Xiu manage to survive with only heavy injuries, as Su Yan’s human race background prevents her Phoenix body from sufficiently withstanding the strain of having maintained the Formation. However, before dying, Su Yan states that she will attempt to undergo Nirvana with a slim possibility of revival. Fortunately, just when it subsequently seems the Nirvana will fail, Zhang Ruo Xi is urged by Sun’s Burning Light to assist the Nirvana with the strength of the Yellow and Blue Siblings’ sources.

As a result of this assistance, Su Yan’s Nirvana is successful, and the process even achieves the Heaven-defying feat of allowing her Phoenix cultivation to reach the equivalent of the 9th Rank Open Heaven Realm despite the limit of her 8th Rank Open Heaven Realm cultivation level.

## Physique

She possesses an acquired Special Physique known as the **Ice Crystal Jade Body.** This gives her greater potential toward the comprehension and control of the Ice Element.
