Character Background

Tantai Chan, initially encountered as a cold and aloof steward of a medicine garden, possessed a unique temperament that was both youthful and charming 21. She was bound by a human slave contract to Yu Tang Tang, the daughter of the Blood-Eyed Demon Flood Dragon, a secret she kept from outsiders 289 114. This contract meant she was essentially a servant to Yu Tang Tang, a fact that fueled her deep desire for freedom 156.

Her relationship with Wang Yu began when he worked in her medicine garden, where she initially dismissed him due to his low cultivation 21 288. However, as Wang Yu's power grew, their dynamic shifted. He eventually obtained her human slave contract from the Blood-Eyed Demon Flood Dragon, freeing her 312. This act of liberation, along with Wang Yu's guidance in alchemy, fostered a deep sense of gratitude and affection in Tantai Chan 313 290 467. She became one of his most trusted allies, with Wang Yu even helping her break through to the Nascent Soul stage 570.

After a period of separation, Tantai Chan, now known as Xiao Chan’er, was found in the Soul Refining Great World. She had cultivated the Ghost Dao after her physical body dissipated and had established Cold Blood City with the support of the Heavenly Human Clan, reaching the Spirit Transformation Seventh Layer 709 713. Despite her increased power and independence, she maintained a strong connection and dependence on Wang Yu, who continued to teach her advanced cultivation techniques 713 714.

Character Development

Initially, Tantai Chan is portrayed as a skilled alchemist with a cold demeanor, focused on her craft, and showing little interest in Wang Yu beyond his duties as a medicine farmer 21. She is described as having exquisite features and a strange temperament, with coldness in her eyes 21. Her initial interactions with Wang Yu are minimal, and she dismisses him after observing his aged appearance 21 23. However, her attitude softens slightly when she learns of Wang Yu's connection to Su Zhen Chuan, leading her to show a rare kindness 23.

Her character develops as her past as a "human slave" to Yu Tang Tang is revealed, a contract forced upon her by the Blood-Eyed Demon Flood Dragon 114 289. This background fuels her deep-seated desire for freedom from Yu Tang Tang's control 156. Wang Yu leverages this desire, using strategic manipulation to gain her assistance, such as helping him refine a High-Grade Foundation Establishment Pill 156.

Over time, Tantai Chan's relationship with Wang Yu evolves from a distant superior to a more intimate and trusting bond. She shows deference to Wang Yu, providing him with information about Cold Blood Peak 288. After Wang Yu helps her obtain freedom from her human slave contract, her gratitude grows, and she becomes more open and radiant, her cold demeanor replaced by a newfound vitality 313. She even expresses a desire to learn alchemy from him 289.

Later, Wang Yu assists Tantai Chan in breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, solidifying her position as one of his most trusted allies 570. Despite her limited potential due to her three spiritual roots, Wang Yu's intervention allows her to cleanse her body and transform her aptitude once, though future breakthroughs would depend on her own opportunities 570.

Her journey continues in the Soul Refining Great World, where she establishes Cold Blood City and reaches the Spirit Transformation Seventh Layer, demonstrating significant growth in power and independence 713. Despite her increased power, she maintains a strong dependence on Wang Yu, and their reunion is marked by affection 713. She continues to be a confidante to Wang Yu, offering comfort and support 721.
