Biography

Recorded role

Luo Feng first learns of Zhu Hu through a long-standing bounty of 530,000 Cosmic Sand, unusually high for the head of a native family known for ordinary business. The reward and the Zhu Clan's continued stability mark him as one of Huyang's figures not to be trifled with. Zhu Hu later facilitates Lord Wei's purchase of the Sword of the World's Core and treats her courteously because of her superior background, while the narration states that his own power is no lower than hers. (Chapters 1508, 1537, and 1553)
