Baiji
Last updated 2026-09-05
Baiji is the leader[14] and founder of the Seven Shus.[15] As a part of the Seven Shus, he is titled the Shu of Falsehood.[2] Baiji is the strongest out of the Seven Shus.[16]
Appearance
Baiji is a tall, slim man with long,[17] dark brown hair featuring green highlights. His appearance is typically sickly[18] and frail.[19] He wears a flowy, green and white outfit with gold accents. His sleeves cut off before his forearms, which are covered in white and gold cloth.
Story
Baiji was raised with a noble background,[20] but he suffered from poor health throughout his childhood.[21][5] A hundred years ago, Baiji, alongside Ajita, tried to contain the Ten Faces of Misery within a Zodiac Astral Ring to end the shadow calamities.[22] However, his attempt triggered a surge of energy from the shadows, resulting in the Astral Ring shattering into seven pieces. The power of the Astral Ring remained within the shards, which Baiji created counterfeits to contain. He intended to distribute the fragments to select gifted people as a strategy to turn the tide against the shadow calamities.[23][24]
Personality
Baiji is calm, friendly, and strategic,[25] though his actions can be forceful.[26] Despite his title, Baiji is said to have never lied to anyone.[2] In Part 2 Chapter V, Litost reveals that Baiji had been searching for ways to extend his mother's and sister's lives, to which Baiji says that he wants to make the most out of his remaining time, as to not leave regrets.[5]
Trivia
- He shares his Chinese voice actor with Lyle Collodi, Wise from Zenless Zone Zero, and Shikanoin Heizou from Genshin Impact.

- Baiji: The doctors said I wouldn't make it to adulthood, but I did. I even managed to ease my sister's burden. What's there to feel bitter about?
- Litost: You inherited this illness from your mother. It kept you from running freely and forced you to take medication since childhood.
- Baiji: At least I can still go outside. Ling's illness struck earlier and was much worse. Before our mother passed away, she worried about Ling the most.
- Litost: Over the years, you've searched for ways to prolong people's lives; first for your mother, then for your sister. But did you ever think about yourself?
- Baiji: Although I'm technically the young master of the Bai family, no one expects much from a frail heir who could drop dead at any moment.
- Baiji: My only option is to make the most of the time I have left and have no regrets.

- Baiji: It all began a hundred years ago, when under Ajita's exhortations, I attempted to contain the Ten Faces of Misery within a special Astral Ring in hopes of putting an end to the shadow calamities.
- Senadina: Can the Astral Ring really do that?
- Baiji: Ajita called it the Zodiac Astral Ring. It is said to play a special role in the so-called "specialization."
- [...]
- Baiji: When I attempted to integrate and capture the Ten Faces of Misery, a tremendous surge of energy erupted from the shadows and shattered the Astral Ring into seven pieces. The counterfeits we possess that resemble the Astral Ring are products of that incident.

- Ajita: So, what happened to the Zodiac Astral Ring?
- [...]
- Baiji: ... It couldn't bear the pressure and split into several fragments.
- Ajita: Oh my... I suppose it's only theoretically feasible to integrate the shadow's authorities in a singular point.
- Baiji: But one thing happened just as you predicted.
- Baiji: The Astral Ring isn't just a mundane gadget. Even though it split apart, its power is still there. I'm currently using a counterfeit to store that power.
- ↑ Part 2 Chapter III, Only Shadows Shall Remain
- Baiji: Next, I plan to hand over the fragments of the Zodiac Astral Ring to the right people. The biological affinity of this instrument might give us an opportunity to turn the tables.
- Ajita: Oh, I remember working on this contingency plan together. I don't think we can do anything about the Law... But regarding the Shus, do you have any candidates in mind?
- Baiji nodded.
- Baiji: I hope they can utilize their exceptional talents to discover or devise some methods to suppress the shadow calamities...
