Yin Yan

He is a Disciple at Zephyr Academy who is trying to learn Spirit Healing. Initially he was roommates with Jun Wu Xie and plotted against her at the wishes of Ning Xin.

When he first entered Zephyr Academy he was supposed to be mentored by Fan Jin at the request of Ning Rui but Fan Jin immediately refused so he started to hate him.

During a spirit beast hunt in a forest near Zephyr Academy under the orders of Ning Xin he had other members of Zephyr Academy try to assassinate Fan Jin but failed. Afterwards Ning Xin had led Lord Meh Meh to members of Rui Lin Army to have them killed so she could pilfer the bodies after but thwarted because Ye Sha had been following her and Jun Wu Xie was close by.

After they returned to Zephyr Academy everyone but Ning Xin and him (they were in a party of 20+ people) were expelled but very soon Rui Lin Army and Jun Wu Xie came to Zephyr Academy. Under Rui Lin Army Military Law Ning Xin was punished with 100 floggings and 30 lashes the last of which split her in half, killing her. As a coconspirator and lackey has wasn't killed but sent to Jun Qing because of his innate talents with the Spirit Healing Technique.
