5 Reasons to Root for Prince Liwei

We know, we know, the debate between Team Liwei and Team Wenzhi is intense. But today? Today we are setting aside the bad boys to celebrate the ultimate "green flag" of the Celestial Kingdom: Crown Prince Liwei.

While the world of the Immortal Realm is filled with political scheming and sharp blades, Liwei manages to be a breath of fresh air. He is the comfort character we all need, the calm in the storm, and the definition of a Prince Charming who actually deserves the title.

If you have a soft spot for the "friends-to-lovers" trope and heroes who are as kind as they are strong, this one is for you. Here are 5 reasons why Liwei has our whole heart! 💘

1. His Loyalty Runs Deep

In a court where backstabbing is basically a hobby, Liwei’s loyalty is everything. He stands by the people he loves—even when politics, crushing family expectations, and destiny try to pull him in other directions. He doesn't just follow orders; he follows his heart, and he is fiercely loyal to those who earn his trust, especially Xingyin.

2. He Loves with Honesty and Clarity

Romantasy is full of miscommunication, but Liwei? He doesn’t play games. When he cares about someone, he says it, shows it, and proves it. In a world full of secrets (looking at you, Celestial Emperor), his sincerity is so refreshing. He values honesty above almost everything else, making him a partner you can actually rely on.

3. He Sees Xingyin for Who She Truly Is

Before the titles, the magic, and the intricate gowns, Liwei was Xingyin's first friend in the Celestial Kingdom. He didn't fall for a mystery; he fell for her. He values her strength, her spirit, and her courage, treating her as an equal partner in training and in life. He sees the warrior in her just as clearly as he sees the woman.

4. Gentle, Artistic, and Fierce When It Counts

We love a man with range! 🎨⚔️ Liwei is the perfect duality: a skilled warrior capable of commanding magic and martial arts, but also a sensitive soul who loves painting and quiet moments. He proves that you can be soft where it matters and strong when needed. That balance makes him endlessly compelling to read.

5. He Fights for What’s Right, Not What’s Easy

It would be easy for Liwei to just accept his privilege and rule exactly like his parents. Instead, he constantly questions the ruthlessness of the Celestial Royal family. Whether challenging injustice or questioning archaic traditions, Liwei chooses compassion over convenience. He isn't just a prince by blood; he has the heart of a true leader.
