Cao Xu

Nie Yan’s greatest enemy from his past life. After having suppressed Nie Yan’s parents, he interfered with Nie Yan and caused him to be unemployed and impoverished. At his peak, he had control over 5 guilds (Victorious Return, Radiant Sacred Flame, Alliance of Mages, Divine Protectors, and Bloodlust Blades) and many businesses across Calore, Nisode, and Radiant City. As a last-ditch vengeance, Nie Yan assassinated him before getting killed in return by his bodyguards (and then reincarnating).
