Cheng Yi’s portrayal of Wangquan Fu Gui hits 800 million character points – Sword and Beloved protagonist heading rapidly towards 1 billion

Michelle Topham October 28, 2025

Alrighty, so now we are two days past when Chinese actor Cheng Yi’s Sword and Beloved character Wangquan Fu Gui earned 600 million character popularity points on iQIYI, and he has now exceeded 800 million.

Just under 200 million character points away from a billion and, obviously, still climbing, as Sword and Beloved still has 27 more episodes to release.

In keeping with iQIYI’s usual way of promotion, Wangquan Fu Gui earning 800 million points warranted another cool poster drop of Cheng Yi wielding his sword and being a complete badass.

They also commented:

#iQiyi Character Popularity##Sword And Beloved##Wangquan Fu Gui#

As sir said, “we practice cultivation not to compromise with this chaotic world”, “Even if we are in darkness, humble and weak, we must believe that we can become the light that dispels the haze”, and have no regrets and a clear conscience.

Enjoy the latest Cheng Yi poster, and keep an eye out as — it’s patently obvious it will happen — for when Wangguan Fu Gui, the most powerful member of the Wangquan family, hits 1 billion character points.

That’s coming soon, I would guess.

Meanwhile, Sword and Beloved itself has already climbed to 8,500 on iQIYI’s heat index, and iQIYI has just announced it is the Cdrama on their platform to hit 100 million barrage comments the fastest.

Yep, the Cheng Yi/Li Yi Tong vehicle is performing extremely well so far.
