To beat Hua, Deadly Betrothed in Phantom Blade Zero, parry the blade strings, move sideways as lilies drift toward you, and dodge as she lunges after a red flash. Punish after her combo ends, then reset before she can counter. Find her behind Valley Sha-Chi Tower in Weeping Creek Valley.

En resumen

  • From the Valley Sha-Chi Tower 1st Floor bell, go around the right side of the tower and slide down the wooden ramp behind it.
  • Stay off fresh lily patches, dodge the low sweep, and save your heals for a gap with clear ground and no drifting blooms.
  • Hua is a Puppet. Bring a weapon you know well, since Bleed has no effect.
  • Defeating Hua gives you the Scarlet Wraithblade. Pick up the Twin Flesh Lilies beside the altar separately, then return to Yu’er at the Outpost.

  3. Turn left at the bottom and head up the slope to the clearing. A cutscene starts the fight.

El Flesh Lily Fields bell is next to the wedding altar. Ring it after the fight to unlock fast travel. See PC Gamer’s route with screenshots y PowerPyx’s collectible walkthrough for the approach, or our Phantom Blade Zero boss order for the surrounding encounters.

What to Bring: Weapon, Phantom Edge and Why Not Bleed

Weapon choice

Hua is immune to Bleed. Jagged Steel still deals weapon damage, so keep it if you know its moves well. In PC Gamer’s fight guide, Sean Martin recommends a level 5 weapon for its unlocked ability. You can try the fight with your current setup first.

Dread Axe after a stun

If you have the Dread Axe Phantom Edge, charge it to its first level near the end of Hua’s stun. Release when the charge pings blue to knock her down and extend your opening.

Hua's Attacks: What to Parry and What to Dodge

Separate the lilies you see on the ground from the ones moving through the air. Fresh patches erupt where they grow. Drifting blooms can set up a grab if they reach you. Move to clear ground before using a gourd, ideally just after a blade string finishes.

Patch 1.0302256: Fewer Grabs on Two Difficulties

According to the S-GAME patch notes, version 1.0302256 made Hua use grabs less often on Wayfarer y Pathbreaker. The other difficulties were unaffected by this change. The notes specify grab frequency. They give no new timing for the lunge.

How to Handle the Red-Flash Grab

After the flash, watch for Hua to lunge and dodge as she closes in. All Things How’s fight guide describes that sequence from pre-patch footage, while PC Gamer’s fight guide reports using the red-attack counter. The patch notes address frequency, so use the lunge itself as your cue.

Step-by-Step: Hua Fight Walkthrough

  1. 1

    Reach the arena

    Circle right from the Valley Sha-Chi Tower 1st Floor bell. Slide down the ramp behind the tower and take the left path into the clearing.

  2. 2

    Parry the whole string

    Wait for the follow-up before swinging back. If Hua crouches into the low sweep, dodge instead.

  3. 3

    Stay off the lilies

    Move sideways as blooms drift toward you, leave fresh patches and heal once the area around you is clear.

  4. 4

    Watch the grab lunge

    When she flashes red, wait for her to close in and dodge. Avoid attacking into the tell.

  5. 5

    Use the stun window

    Take a short punish after the string or a stun. If you have Dread Axe, use the first charge level late in the stun for a knockdown.

  6. 6

    Pick up the quest item

    After the fight, collect the Twin Flesh Lilies beside the altar, ring the bell and take the flowers to Yu’er at the Outpost.

Hua Rewards and the Flesh Lily Pickup

Where to pick up the Twin Flesh Lilies

After the win, walk to the wedding altar and check the body beside the pavilion for the Twin Flesh Lilies. Return to the Outpost after defeating Peng Meng. Find Yu’er near Forge and choose Hand the Flesh Lily to Yu’er. She gives you a single Flesh Lily to keep for the later scene in Pangzhen. PC Gamer’s route with screenshots y All Things How’s Flesh Lily walkthrough show the pickup and hand-in.

When to hand them in

Do the hand-in on your first return to the Outpost. For The Healer’s Legacy, PowerPyx’s trophy walkthrough advises handing in the flower before defeating Bai Chilian in Crimson Forest. All Things How separately reports that entering the Village of Lu removes the uncollected flowers from the fields.

Our Take: Is Hua Worth Fighting?

Fight Hua on your first pass through Weeping Creek Valley if you want her weapon or are following Yu’er’s tale.

Before you leave the clearing, check for the flower pickup and ring the Flesh Lily Fields bell. If you’re only following the main story, you can skip the encounter.
