Dong Fang Chang Fan first names him during Imperial Court contest talk in Ni Yu blessed land: Hei Cheng of Hei tribe has been mocking Ye Lui Lai over Imperial Court ownership, and Tan Bi Ya states that Hei Lou Lan is Hei Cheng’s twenty-seventh concubine’s child and that Hei Cheng actively supports that son from behind. ch. 514

Appearance

He is a handsome man radiating with vigor. His eyes seem to shine, and he appears confident and at ease. He is a famous handsome man. ch. 528

Wife’s death and son’s adoption

In Xiao Hun blessed land he sits with Hei Bai as a handsome, confident Hei tribe supreme elder, Hei Lou Lan’s father, and the male lead of the Su Xian night elopement story. He asks Hei Bai about Dong Fang Chang Fan after Ni Yu, scoffs at praise for Chang Fan, and claims Chang Fan had a hand in his wife Su Xian Er’s death while admitting the evidence is not enough to prove it. The same talk retells how Su Xian Er saved him from Su tribe poisoning over two hundred years earlier, how they became Gu Immortals as a couple, and how he later had Hei Lou Lan adopted by Fairy Jiang Yu so dark limit Immortal Gu could preserve the Great Strength True Martial physique. ch. 528

Imperial Court support

With Hei Bai in Xiao Hun blessed land he confirms Tan Bi Ya’s report that Ma tribe has ties to Snowy Mountain demonic path Gu Immortals, and he orders large wolf and Gu purchases to keep backing Hei Lou Lan as the contest enters its final stage. ch. 537 After Hei tribe wins a major battle against Ma tribe, he and Hei Bai observe the field; he names Xue Song Zi as the Snowy Mountain immortal who supported Ma tribe, credits Fairy Tan Bi Ya’s information, and plans to recruit Wolf King Chang Shan Yin into Hei tribe as a possible future external supreme elder. ch. 543

Hunted by his own tribe over Dark Prison

Because Dark Prison’s core Immortal Gu belonged to Hei tribe’s four supreme elders and the Central Continent Gu Immortals who took it divide it up among their own sects, Hei tribe judges Hei Cheng at fault for its loss, but his oath to keep Shadow Sect’s activities secret stops him from explaining himself, so he can only flee from his own tribe’s pursuit as well. ch. 940

Final obsession before his end

Hei Lou Lan brings Fang Yuan and Fairy Li Shan to Xiao Hun blessed land, the blessed land Hei Cheng left behind, where the land spirit attaches itself to Su Xian Er’s familial emotion and makes her its master, since its ownership condition was to stay with Su Xian Er forever. Fang Yuan is surprised that Hei Cheng’s final obsession before his death was Su Xian Er, and that even in the moments of his death he was thinking of her. ch. 953

His own father, her greatest obsession

Although Hei Cheng is her own father, the hatred between them runs so deep that Hei Lou Lan will not rest until he is dead, and killing him has become her greatest obsession. In Fang Yuan’s previous life she had already killed Hei Cheng, taken back self strength Immortal Gu and dispelled that scar in her mind, so that her strength path phantoms took her own appearance rather than a brawny burly man’s. ch. 974

A chance declined

Kept from Hei Lou Lan

Because Hei Lou Lan no longer holds his soul in this life, she has no way to locate Luo Po valley, and Fang Yuan keeps its whereabouts from her. ch. 992

Still alive, still unavenged

Ying Wu Xie reasons that Hei Lou Lan will endure Shadow Sect’s control for now, since she has not yet taken revenge while Hei Cheng is still alive. ch. 1031

Gentlemanly grace

He is publicly recognized as a handsome man in Northern Plains and has a gentlemanly grace. ch. 1120

Earth Mother identified through his soul
