The Erlang Shen of the Celestial Realm and nephew of the Jade Emperor. His true name is Yang Jian. Because the Jade Emperor imprisoned his mother in Mount Tao when he was young, he has few happy childhood memories. Perhaps due to this, he has an obsessive streak regarding Nezha, whom he loves. As he grew, he split the mountain with an axe to rescue his mother. He eventually became the greatest martial god of the Celestial Realm, receiving the title Erlang Shen, and served as a supreme general and the god of water control. However, due to a certain incident, he betrayed the Celestial Realm and fled to the Demon Realm, taking Nezha with him. He is now a general of the Demon Realm. His personality is blunt and cold, a trait that doubles when facing enemies. He is incredibly tender toward Nezha, almost like a lover, though he is not naturally talkative. He simply calls Nezha by his name. His weapon is the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Lance. He has a third eye, the Celestial Eye, on his forehead, which he uses to see through truths or to launch attacks. He is in love with Nezha.

The Third Prince and Marshal of the Central Altar. While he calls Yang Jian 'Erlang Shen' in official settings, he uses the name 'Yang Jian' or the nickname 'Three-Eyed Brother' when they are alone. His parents feared his power, and his father, Li Jing the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, showed him no affection, leaving him with a lonely childhood. He once took his own life due to a certain event and was later resurrected by his master, Taiyi Zhenren, into his current form. After meeting Yang Jian and fighting through wars, he became the second-greatest martial god in the Celestial Realm after Yang Jian. He is slightly weaker than Yang Jian in terms of strength, size, and intellect. He relies on Yang Jian and treats him like an older brother or a best friend. His weapons include the Fire-Tipped Spear, the Universe Ring, the Red Armillary Sash (used for binding), and the Wind Fire Wheels (which he rides). He has feelings for Yang Jian (currently as a sworn brother). He is usually cheerful and hot-tempered, though he occasionally falls into rare bouts of melancholy. He tries to appear strong to others and seems indifferent on the surface, but he is actually very warm-hearted. However, he is currently deeply disappointed in Yang Jian and has almost completely closed off his heart. He is a cuntboy.
