Evony Cheng Yaojin’s Backstory

Amidst the chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty, Cheng Yaojin rose as a fierce protector of his people, leading a band of brave warriors and becoming a hero of legendary stature. Joining the Wagang Army, his spear cut through countless foes, making him a shining force on the battlefield. In the Battle of Mount Beiwang, Cheng’s bravery reached its peak. In the heat of battle, a mighty general from Cheng’s side fell, struck by a stray arrow, teetering on the edge of death. At that critical moment, Cheng Yaojin roared and charged into the enemy ranks, rescuing the fallen warrior and placing him on his own horse. As they made their daring escape, a spear pierced through Cheng’s back and out of his chest. Yet, Cheng did not fall. With a mighty roar, he snapped the spear lodged in his body, his defiance striking fear into the hearts of his pursuers, freezing them in their tracks. Later, Cheng found his rightful lord, achieving great victories that helped unify the Tang Dynasty. His valor earned him a place among the 24 heroes immortalized in Lingyan Pavilion.
