Clouded Soul - Jileng Lixue Concept Art (Patreon)

Okay, so. I had a weird time last night after getting the first third of the outline done. I was excited and couldn't sleep, and I didn't. Rare bout of insomnia. I ended up starting this sometime in the afternoon and as I grew more and more tired it consumed me, so I more or less spent the whole day on it. The koikatsu stuff only took a little bit but as you can probably see she has tons of intricate details and it took a lot of iterating on my end to finalize everything.

I'm insanely proud of her, though.

Lixue is the last member of the harem in Clouded Soul. If the series goes past that and into Clear Soul she will certainly not be the last one overall, but she's a big deal and a lot of set up is done for her and her circumstances in the first volume.

The sole survivor of a slain clan and another victim of Jun's enemies, the Sasei. Lixue is a refined and beautiful young spiritborne woman already at the early stages of Clouded Master despite her age, but don't let her looks fool you. She's quite sheltered, naive, and even gullible at times. She's not a snobbish ojou-sama, she just has the face of one. Think of her as the perfect Yamato Nadeshiko type, just with bouts of childishness.

She blindly goes along with whatever stupid shit Miao tells her to do, deferential to her as the first wife and similarly respecting Mei.

Granted we'll meet her in the story when she's at a very, very low point what with all of her family having just recently been killed, so I guess a lot of the specifics are still up in the air.

Aspect is Tranquility, affinity is- get this- ice.
