Background / History
Xun Er grew up in the Xiao Family alongside Xiao Yan and Xiao Yang. As a child, she often held and played with Xiao Yang, regarding him with familial affection; she enjoys coaxing the ordinarily taciturn boy into speaking. 1 2
She is the young mistress of the Ancient Clan and possesses its most perfect God-Grade Bloodline in nearly a thousand years. Her status and bloodline make her a central concern of the clan, whose members prioritize her safety and restrict her freedom before she reaches the Dou Sheng realm. 85 202 210 215
While living in Wutan City, Xun Er deliberately restrained her cultivation so Xiao Yan could keep pace with her. Even so, her divine-grade bloodline allows her to advance rapidly with minimal cultivation during the Fighter, Dou Shi, and Da Dou Shi stages. 85
When Xiao Yang requires materials guarded by the Rank 6 Amethyst Winged Lion King, Xun Er agrees immediately and orders Ling Ying to retrieve the Magic Core, Accompanying Amethyst, and Amethyst Spirit Crystal. 2
At her Coming-of-Age Ceremony, her bloodline manifests as a golden pillar of light powerful enough to force many Gu Clan members to kneel. Tong Xuan Elder subsequently inscribes her seven-colored clan tattoo with the Seven-Colored Heavenly Emperor Brush. 202

Personality
Xun Er is calm, focused, and quietly devoted to those close to her. She readily supports Xiao Yang's plans, worries about the risks he takes, and recognizes the hardship behind his rapid growth rather than attributing it to talent alone. 58 61 67
She is deeply attached to Xiao Yan and can be possessive when he speaks admiringly of Xiao Yang's romantic success. 133 She also deliberately slows her own cultivation in her early years so as not to discourage Xiao Yan. 85
Despite her gentle demeanor, Xun Er understands the Ancient Clan's internal politics and does not intend to oppose Xiao Yang's eventual reckoning with hardliners who threaten the Xiao Family or her future with Xiao Yan. 61
