Background / History
Xun'er was stationed in Wu Tan City under the protection of her shadow guard, Ling Ying, while carrying out a mission for the Ancient Clan. Ling Ying repeatedly urged her to prioritize that mission, but Xun'er instead focused on helping Su Qingyun cultivate. Believing she had harmed his ability to cultivate, she searched for pills and treasures for him. 1 2
In the Xiao Clan, Xun'er became known for both her beauty and outstanding talent. She rejected other admirers coldly, yet openly showed unusual closeness to Su Qingyun, defended him from public insults, and provided him with money, cultivation resources, and the Rakshasa Ghost Mask. 16 17 18
After Su Qingyun departed Wu Tan City, Xun'er received the Xiao Clan's fragment of the Tou She Ancient God Jade from him and returned it to the Ancient Clan. She resolved to strengthen herself, awaken her Divine Grade Bloodline fully, and reunite with him when she could stand beside him openly. 60
Years later, Xun'er learned that Su Qingyun had likely been captured by the Hall of Souls. She immediately assembled Ancient Clan experts, allied with Han Xue and Han Yue for local guidance, and entered the Northern Region to rescue him. 167
Appearance
Xun'er is described as an exceptionally beautiful young woman whose appearance and talent made her a celebrated “goddess” among Wu Tan City's younger generation. She is first seen in a purple skirt, later appearing in green robes within the Gu Realm. 1 17 167
- Usually carries herself with a cool, distant, and elegant demeanor. 1 187
- Her beauty is repeatedly noted as peerless by observers. 17
- Her composed appearance contrasts sharply with the intensity she shows when Su Qingyun is threatened. 172
Personality
Xun'er is fiercely devoted and protective toward Su Qingyun. She consistently places his safety and well-being above her clan assignment, personal reputation, and even the risks associated with her Divine Grade Bloodline. 1 19 60 172
She is possessive and easily jealous regarding Su Qingyun's other relationships, but can set aside that jealousy when cooperation is necessary to save him. 56 167 She is also resolute under pressure: when Ancient Clan members spread rumors about her pregnancy and demanded to know the father's identity, she endured the hostility without revealing information that could endanger Su Qingyun. 188
Normally reserved around other men, Xun'er becomes openly emotional when convinced Su Qingyun has been harmed. Believing him dead, she demanded that the Ancient Clan Three Immortals identify and destroy his killer, even threatening her own life to force action. 17 172
