Background / History
Hu Xi met Leng Xuewu on Snow God Mountain while protecting her from an assassin. Despite being seriously wounded and two ranks below his opponent, he placed himself between Leng and the assassin. The two later made a binding vow to protect and love one another for life, with Xiao Lingzhan as witness. 23 25
As Hu Haoran's father, Hu Xi spent years guarding the empire's borderlands. He had been absent from the Hu Residence for five years after Hu Haoran was three, choosing military duty and the Cangyun Empire's stability over time with his family. The prolonged separation left him deeply guilty. 334
While stationed at the border, Hu Xi covertly prepared a fallback route for the Hu Family amid concerns over the Second Prince and the Ling Family. He arranged forces around Haori City, including a hidden force based at Dragon Bone Mountain, to ensure the family could recover even if events in the city turned against them. 84 212
Hu Xi secretly worked with Emperor Shen Yefeng against Ling Gaofeng's plot, replacing soldiers in the Imperial Capital and placing enemy spies under surveillance. Although he cooperated with the emperor, he openly considered abandoning the empire's political troubles and was suspected of preparing an escape for his family. 333
After returning home, Hu Xi reunited with Hu Haoran and was overwhelmed by his son's growth. He accepted Hu Tengfei and Hu Yuchen as adopted sons, accepted Bing Yuxin as an adopted daughter, and equipped Bai Erli and Sai Fenglei with Level Seven Soul Tools. 334 335
During the Tianlan Tribe's assault on Jinmai City, Hu Xi continued commanding and fighting despite severe wounds. He used a Blood-Burning Soul-Gathering Pill to temporarily reach Title Douluo-level power, fought Hartu and Yebao Duoyu, and collapsed after exhausting himself. Hu Haoran's treatment, pills, soul bones, and breakthrough medicine enabled Hu Xi to recover and advance to Title Douluo. 575 577 580 582
As a Title Douluo, Hu Xi led the defense and counteroffensive against the Tianlan Tribe. His Youming Valley ambush devastated the enemy's retreating army, and he later held off three Tianlan Tribe Title Douluo before Zhao Guangtian intervened. 596 598 599 601

He is deeply devoted to family despite the emotional cost of his service. Hu Xi is proud of Hu Haoran's achievements, supports his son's ambitions, and ultimately entrusts him with increasingly important decisions. He also readily accepts Hu Haoran's sworn and adopted family as his own. 84 335 581 607
His long military career has left him weary of warfare and political entanglement. He has expressed a wish to retire to farming after the war, cultivate properly, and eventually pass his responsibilities to Hu Haoran or Hu Moxie. 596 597
