Description
Fan Yunfei, also known as Han Unhi, begins as the prince and later emperor of the Western Fox Kingdom, a Desert Fox Spirit of the Western Region. He commands the power to manipulate sand and transform his body into it. Initially perceived by others as foolish and dull, he speaks with a nervous stutter, frequently repeating phrases like "I'm sorry, I won't dare next time." His apparent lack of assertiveness and poor judgment led him to follow his father's arrangements without question.
A profound shift occurs when he encounters the Ice General Li Xueyang. Determined to marry her, Fan Yunfei proposes nightly for 100 nights, braving harsh desert conditions to find her. Each night, he returns frozen solid, requiring thawing by his father and Li Xueyang herself. On the final night, his persistence succeeds; he brings her home and they marry. They seal their eternal bond with a Pledge of Love using the Millennium Water Bead, a powerful artifact capable of controlling water. This act incurs the wrath of his elders, who disown him due to the sand foxes' inherent weakness to water-based magic. His father later conceals one half of the Water Bead within his staff to prevent its use.
After Li Xueyang's reincarnation, Fan Yunfei remains unwavering in his commitment to reunite with her. Finding her in her new life as a kindergarten teacher, he enlists fox spirit matchmakers to trigger her past-life memories. A critical misunderstanding arises when Li Xueyang witnesses his father impersonating him while flirting with other women, causing her to flee heartbroken. However, when the Flame Medusa later threatens her, Fan Yunfei rescues her, reaffirming his devotion. The activation of the Millennium Water Bead during her reincarnation journey helps her recall their shared past, particularly his heroic sacrifice against the Flame Medusa, leading to their reunion.
His story continues. He aids in defending Tushan by combating Disaster Beasts threatening the Kuqing tree. In subsequent events, his protective nature resurfaces as he summons a massive sandstorm against a nation to retaliate for the killing of a friend.
Fan Yunfei evolves from a passive prince into a resolute figure defined by loyalty and sacrifice. His relationship with Li Xueyang underscores his capacity for profound dedication, while his mastery over sand remains consistent. His appearances demonstrate his enduring role in maintaining balance between spirits and humans.
