Quiz answer: Murong Yuan adoptive father
If you only need the one-line answer for a quiz prompt, pick: Li Jun (often the same name shown elsewhere as Li Yun / 李筠).
- -If you are answering an in-game quiz/trivia prompt, the expected answer is commonly “Li Jun”.
- -If you answered “Murong Yanzhao” and it marked you wrong, the quiz is likely using the first father figure (Li Yun/李筠) rather than the later Song adoptive father.
- -Li Yun and Li Jun are often the same person across translations; the Chinese name you may see is 李筠.
Tip: if you are farming quiz points, always use the name variant that your client language expects. This guide is about the lore + naming mismatch, not a rulebook.

Story explanation (spoiler-light)
Why two father figures exist at all
Murong Yuan’s backstory is built around a hand-off: one man rescues and raises her early, and another man formally adopts her later when politics turn dangerous. That split is the core reason players disagree on who “counts” as her adoptive father.
Li Yun / Li Jun (李筠): the first father figure
Most summaries describe her being found as an infant after a rebellion, then raised by General Li Yun (sometimes localized as Li Jun). He is not her biological father, but he functions as her first adoptive father in practice — raising her and naming her “Yuan”, often tied to the kite motif (鸢).
Murong Yanzhao (慕容延钊): the later adoptive father in the navy
When Li Yun’s political situation collapses, he entrusts Murong Yuan to his ally Murong Yanzhao. From that point, Murong Yanzhao is treated as her official adoptive father in the Song military world, which is why lore discussions around Jinming Pool usually point to him.
Why the Jinming Pool plot amplifies the confusion (spoilers)
Jinming Pool is where Murong Yuan’s resentment and misunderstanding come to the surface. Many players meet Murong Yanzhao in that arc and assume he must be the only adoptive father, but her earlier guardian (Li Yun/李筠) is a different person — and quizzes sometimes key off that earlier relationship.
