Kui Yanyan, the Deranged, is a boss that is relatively easy to kill with the proper weapon and build in Phantom Blade Zero. This can be achieved by emptying the Sha-Chi of the boss as fast as possible and inflicting as much damage as possible while the boss is staggered. It is possible to kill this boss using the Baishan Storm Sword, Scarlet Wraithblade, and some additional damage modifiers.
How to Defeat Kui Yanyan, The Deranged

In this particular case, the build that should be used is one that focuses on delivering high amounts of damage and rapidly reducing the Sha-Chi of the boss. The Baishan Storm Swords and the Scarlet Wraithblade are the two primary weapons in such a build. Other items that would be equipped in this particular build include the Thunder Spear, Crimson Resolve, Quickhand Pear, and Hunter’s Insight.
The following items can be used as the accessories in this build, and include the Nameless Thumb Ring which will boost your Level 2 attacks, and the Reflex Device. Lament Drought would also be highly recommended, as it will provide an increased damage output of 20% for 40 seconds. This item is extremely useful for this fight, as it allows you to deal a huge amount of damage in a short time.
During the beginning of the battle, use the Scarlet Wraithblade’s Lilies attack, which will send the lilies into the floor. After that, move away to ensure that you are not attacked. Use the Thunder Spear attack to use AoE damage and to attack the enemies simultaneously. The Scarlet Wraithblade will immediately remove the Sha-Chi energy from them, making them vulnerable to break.
With the enemies being stunned and Bashon’s Blessing activated, spam the L2 attacks using the Bashon Storm Swords. Because of your damage buffs in the build, the L2 attacks will do massive amounts of damage to the enemies. Finish off the fight by doing your finishing moves, and you will be able to kill the boss in about 30 seconds.
