He is the sworn brother of Qiao Feng and Xuzhu, and their individual, but intertwining story-lines form the plot of the novel. Although it is not mentioned in the novel, he is the grandfather of Duan Zhixing, a character from Jin Yong's Condor Trilogy.[4] Biography Duan Yu is a young, naive prince of the Kingdom of Dali. His father is the Zhennan Prince Duan Zhengchun while his uncle is the emperor Duan Zhengming. Despite a long tradition of the practice of martial arts in the royal family, Duan refuses to learn martial arts due to Buddhist influence and his disdain for bloodshed. He runs away from home to avoid his father's coercive moves and embarks on his adventures. Ironically, he acquires three of the most powerful skills mentioned in the novel, namely "Six Meridians Divine Sword" (六脈神劍), "Graceful Wave Steps" (凌波微步) and "Northern Depths Divine Skill" (北冥神功) after some extraordinary encounters. Besides, he also mistakenly consumes the Zhuha, a poisonous toad dubbed as the "king of all venomous creatures", but survives and becomes immune to all sorts of venoms since then. He meets Qiao Feng, then chief of the Beggars' Sect, and becomes sworn brothers with Qiao after having a friendly drinking and Qinggong competition with Qiao. Later, he meets Xuzhu, who is facing a troubled love relationship just like him, and they become sworn brothers too out of mutual pity for each other. He takes his sworn brothers' side during the great battle at Shaolin Monastery and helps them fight their enemies. Once, he chances upon a statue of a woman, whom he addresses respectfully as "Fairy Sister" (神仙姊姊). He meets Wang Yuyan later, who bears a similar resemblance to the statue and Duan becomes obsessed and infatuated with Wang. He does anything dutifully in order to win her heart, even though she also has a crush on her cousin, Murong Fu. At the same time, Duan Yu also meets other beautiful maidens (Mu Wanqing, Zhong Ling, A'zhu, A'zi), who turn out to be actually his half-sisters, due to his womanizing father's past illicit affairs with other women. In a cruel twist of events, Wang Yuyan is also revealed to be his half-sister as well and Duan is devastated because he has to give up on her to avoid committing incest. However, there is yet another twist in the plot, as Duan Yu's mother Dao Baifeng (Duan Zhengchun's legitimate wife) tells him that Duan Zhengchun is not his biological father. Dao Baifeng was upset with her husband for having extra-marital affairs and she decided to make him jealous by having a one night stand with a filthy beggar. The beggar is actually Duan Yanqing of the Four Evils, who was previously the crown prince of Dali, and had been into exile. Therefore, the blood of the royal family of Dali still runs in Duan Yu's veins, and he succeeds his father as emperor of Dali at the end of the novel. In the earlier editions of the novel, Duan Yu makes Wang Yuyan his empress after his coronation while his other "half-sisters" are conferred titles of concubines. Martial arts and skills Six Meridians Divine Sword (六脈神劍) - a legendary skill that is known only to the royal family of Dali and members of Heaven Dragon Monastery in Dali. When Jiu Mozhi goes to the monastery to seize the skill's manual, the monks ask Duan Yu to memorize the manual before destroying it. Duan learns the skill and becomes the first person to fully master it since several decades ago, because his inner energy foundation is strong enough. The skill allows him to materialize his inner energy into the shape of a sword and propel it from his fingers, slicing and piercing through enemies like a real sword. Graceful Wave Steps (凌波微步) - a type of Qinggong that originated from the Carefree Sect. Duan Yu finds the skill's manual after kowtowing several times to the statue of the woman, as instructed on some carvings. The skill combines rapid movements and maneuvers with graceful, dance-like steps, that can enable Duan Yu to dodge and escape from enemies quickly. Northern Depths Divine Skill (北冥神功) - a inner energy skill that originated from the Carefree Sect. Duan Yu finds the manual together with the "Graceful Wave Steps" manual after kowtowing to the statue. The skill allows him to absorb an opponent's inner energy. It is often mistaken for the Xingxiu Sect's unorthodox "Energy-Absorbing Skill" (化功大法), which also traces its origins from the Carefree Sect.
