Background / History

Xiao Cha first met Luo Bei in the mountains near Shushan. She gave him only her name and demonstrated an affinity with vegetation, using green light to animate vines. Luo Bei later refined the Wu Qiu Inner Core that she had given him, while Xiao Cha brought him the newly hatched Little Wu Qiu. 62 63 64

While living in a hidden valley on Tiancang Peak, Xiao Cha revealed that she was a Flower Spirit whose true form was a camellia. Unlike many spirits, she had no Inner Core and could naturally cultivate a human form. Having rarely spoken to anyone before meeting Luo Bei, she initially stuttered and knew little of human customs or emotions. 65

Her wish was to see the world beyond Shushan. When she and Little Wu Qiu fled, Luo Bei drew Shushan's pursuers away so that she could escape. Upon reaching the outside world, Xiao Cha was overwhelmed by its vastness and warmth, but intended to return and clear Luo Bei's name before Duan Tianya intercepted her. 85 86

After leaving Shushan, she and Little Wu Qiu lived in a valley and built a treehouse. When the badly injured Luo Bei found them again, Xiao Cha used fruits from the Heavenly Hemp Tree to help his recovery and declared that she would follow him wherever he went. 222

Xiao Cha later became entangled with Yun Hezi, who had once saved her life and used the resulting debt to pressure her into becoming his Dao companion. She repeatedly refused him, but was captured alongside Luo Bei during his schemes. 223 225

After Nan Liyue abducted her, Xiao Cha was found unconscious with Black Flame Gu in her body. Shi Jian brought her to Cihang Zhai, where Ming Ruo allowed Yun Yuan, Yan Hong, and Bi Yao to risk their Blood Essence to purge the poison. The treatment also exposed an Attached Heart Demon hidden within her. 240 241

Appearance

Xiao Cha is a tall, slender young woman with a distinctive sweet fragrance. Before her corruption, she was commonly seen in goose-yellow robes, though she later wore red on several occasions. 64 78 84 233

  • Her early appearance is described as clear, radiant, and faintly luminous in sunlight. 64
  • She has fair skin, picturesque features, and is only about half a head shorter than Luo Bei. 222
  • Her demonic transformation gives her blood-red eyes, red scales across her face, and an aura that is both alluring and terrifying. 360 362
  • She can divide into numerous blood-red shadows during combat. 357 400

Personality

Before absorbing the Blood Sarira, Xiao Cha was quiet, innocent, and isolated from human society. She was curious about the outside world, gradually learned to understand human feeling through Luo Bei, and found peace in his presence. 65 78

She is deeply loyal and self-sacrificing toward Luo Bei. She attempted to return to Shushan despite escaping safely, cared for him during his injuries, and ultimately consumed the Blood Sarira to protect him from powerful cultivators. 86 222 354

The Netherworld Blood Demon's blood radically changed her. As a demonic seed, she became cold, calculating, and bloodthirsty; former friends became potential “blood meals” for strengthening her blood pool. Fragments of her old memories remained, but they did not prevent her from attacking Luo Bei, Cai Shu, and others. 360 365 405

Story Role / Major Arcs

Shushan Escape

Xiao Cha's desire to leave Tiancang Peak and see the mortal world led Luo Bei to defy Shushan's rules. His choice to draw away their pursuers resulted in his severe punishment, while Xiao Cha's willingness to return demonstrated her concern for him. 85 86

Cihang Zhai Rescue

After her abduction and poisoning, Xiao Cha became the focus of Cihang Zhai's risky effort to remove Black Flame Gu and destroy the Attached Heart Demon concealed in her body. Luo Bei later arrived at Cihang Zhai specifically to find her. 240 241 242

Sacrifice and Demonic Corruption

Outside the Great Freedom Palace, Xiao Cha sensed Luo Bei's danger and consumed the Blood Sariras to save him. The power transformed her into a demonic being who no longer recognized Luo Bei and began slaughtering Great Freedom Palace disciples. 354 358 362

Blood Pool Rampage

As her mastery of the Netherworld Blood Demon legacy increased, Xiao Cha created Blood God Spawns, Blood Guard Yakshas, and the Heavenly Demon Blood Pool. She grew stronger through battle and Blood Essence, making even Luo Bei and the Great Freedom Palace's surviving experts unable to restrain her easily. 365 366

Flower Cult Suppression and Sealing

The Flower Cult's Four Great Dharma Kings tracked Xiao Cha to Fengdu Mountain and trapped her in an array powered by refined gold and Black Fiend Fire Qi. Cai Shu intervened to spare her, but Xiao Cha attempted to use Cai Shu's allies as blood fuel to escape. 398 400 405

Luo Bei entered the array and used the Sword Heart Enlightenment Art to seal Xiao Cha rather than permit her execution. She and Little Wu Qiu were subsequently contained within Luo Bei's Great Black Heaven Demonic Art, where he believed a future cure remained possible. 407 416 419
