Biography
Liu Mei was the daughter of Liu Shao, who was famed as a master duelist in his homeland. Her mother died while Liu Mei was young and so her father was her only family. One day, Liu Shao was killed in a duel and his body returned to his daughter. Since then, taking his beloved sword as her own, Liu Mei swore to gain revenge on her father's killer. She would eventually encounter Genshu and after pestering him repeatedly, finally became his student.
Later, she would discover that Hong Long had killed her father, noticing that his latest victim's body had been desecrated in the same manner as her father. With Genshu's help, she was able to defeat Hong Long. Genshu encouraged her to complete her revenge, but feeling her father's voice through his sword, she refused to finish him off, simply asking "Why?" and realising that hatred produced nothing of value.
