History[]
Mun Ran-Yeong was once the Head of the Dark Dragon Palm Clan, a subordinate clan of the Demonic Cult. The Lord of the Demonic Cult and his followers successfully hunted the Qilin, but they were unable to collect its core or its blood, due to its extraordinarily high temperature. As per the contract with the Imperial palace, twelve people were chosen from the Demonic Cult who would become the Guardians of the treasure. Eventually, all of them passed away after consuming the blood of Qilin. Mun Ran-Yeong was the only one who survived after consuming the blood. She returned to her youth and her lifespan was enhanced. However, she still was unable to collect the Qilin core. Mun Ran-Yeong's existence was kept secret within the Imperial family, calling her the hidden power of the Imperial palace.
For 200 years, she suffered from depression and loneliness, and remained ignorant about the outside world. Her descendants became allies of the current Lord of the Demonic Cult, Cheon Yeo Woon. Later, the Blood Master from the Blade God Six Martial Clan had a conflict with Cheon Yeo Woon and Hu Bong at the chamber where Mun Ran-Yeong guarded the treasure. Although Blood Master was killed, Hu Bong's throat was slashed. To save him, Mun Ran-Yeong feeds him with the blood of Qilin. To her shock, Hu Bong not only survives, but ascends to peak superior level and is able to retain his human form while gaining fire manipulation powers just like her. Cheon Yeo Woon successfully absorbs the core of the Qilin and enters the Divine Master Level. Mun Ran-Yeong reveals herself to be a past generation member of the Demonic cult and swears allegiance to Cheon Yeo Woon, who relieves her of her current duties and appoints her as the first Grand Elder of the Cult. Later, she leaves the imperial palace and returns to the Demonic Cult.
At some point of time, after Cheon Yeo Woon disappeared from his era, Mun Ran-Yeong married Hu Bong. To rescue Cheon Yeo Woon, Mun Ran-Yeong, Hu Bong, and Baekgi decided to undergo cryogenic hibernation from the 3rd Grand Elder Dan Jucheon. Hu Bong was buried in Huangshi city, Mun Ran-Yeong in Datong, and Baek Gi in Zhumadian. They remained undisturbed for a thousand years. In the modern era, she is reunited with Hu Bong and Cheon Yeo Woon.
