Wei Chijiong in The Legend of the Queen of England did not appear in the book. It turned out to be Yi Li's master named Nezha with Eight Arms. After Weichi Gong, the founding hero in the early Tang Dynasty, his martial arts skills were high. However, Wei Chijiong lived in seclusion in Tianshan Mountain because he opposed Wu Zetian's ruling. He did some heroic deeds in Tianshan Mountain and was praised by the local people as "Tianshan swordsman". In the book, Wei Chijiong and Youtan Shenni (Pei Qiongxiang) were originally lovers, but unfortunately they parted ways because of different ambitions. Pei Qiongxiang supported Wu Zetian, and she denounced those who opposed Wu Zetian (including Wei Chijiong). Because of this, Pei Qiongxiang cut her hair and became a nun. Their love can be said to be a tragedy.

Wei Chijiong belongs to the kind of person who is loyal to the imperial court. His whole heart was in the Tang Dynasty, so he hated the Zhou regime of Wu Zetian.
