Chu Wanning
Elder Yuheng of Sisheng Peak. On the surface, he is cold, aloof, ascetic, and forbidding, but in secret, he tucks his disciples in, makes wontons for them, and secretly lays out soft cushions for them while stubbornly refusing to admit to any of it. Created by Huaizui from sacred wood, he has lived two lifetimes and finally learned one thing—those with the most stubborn mouths die the most miserable deaths. Motto: If one knows not how to ferry others, how can one ferry oneself? Actual situation: He ferried everyone else, but almost ferried himself out of existence. Yes, indeed, this is from The Husky and His White Cat Shizun.
“The blood on the three thousand long steps has not dried—that is the path he took to bring you home.”
