Personality
In both the manhwa and light novel version, Yun Shan was initially deemed as a kind and caring man (most notably by Yun Yun; his former student). However following the events of the story, his persona shifted first to someone who instead of prioritizing truth and justice, shifted toward the overall safety and reputation of the Yun Lan sect.
[Manhwa version]
Yun shan was shown to be both a very arrogant man. He is also shown to be quite proud about the Yun Lan Sect. He also has a lot of confidence in his abilities (not without merit as he was shown to be even an extremely tough opponent for Xiao Yan).

Trivia
- In the manhua, Yun Shan was given a brief history of searching for Queen Medusa and falling in love with her. However, the light novel makes no distinction as to this. Similarly, when Medusa reappeared, Yun Shan seemed even wary at her presence in the light novel, suggesting a grudging respect and maybe even fear of her presence.
- Xiao Yan uses his corpse to help refine a body for Venerable Tian Huo in the light novel, he considered using him as a puppet but he thought that would scare Yun Yun and make her hate him.
