Background / History

Xiao Xiao is the daughter of Emperor Yan, ruler of the Endless Fire Territory. In a future simulation, she saves Lu Chen in Dragon Phoenix Heaven after mistaking his Heavenly Flame Celestial Body for an Endless Fire Territory inheritance. She explains that the version he cultivates was improved by her father and is the prerequisite for the Emperor Yan Celestial Body. 17

She later travels under the name Cai Xiao alongside her brother, Gu Lin, claiming to be from the Extremely Northern Land. She joins Lu Chen and Lin Jing’s expedition into Dragon Phoenix Heaven, initially seeking resources to evolve her spirit beast, Xiao Cai. 94 95

During the Dragon Phoenix Heaven expedition, she assists Lu Chen’s group, drives off Fang Yi with a divine ability, and leads them toward a stronger Dragon Phoenix Pool with her compass. 97 101 Her conduct also creates friction with Lin Jing, whom she teases over her relationship with Lu Chen. 97

After trying to pressure Lu Chen over the Flame Mantra and Heavenly Flame Three Transformations, Xiao Xiao is captured by Qing Zhu and forced to leave an IOU. Humiliated, she vows revenge against Qing Zhu and Lin Jing. 108 109 Nevertheless, after leaving Dragon Phoenix Heaven, she gives Lu Chen a Supreme Breakthrough Pill in repayment for the Dragon Phoenix Fruit. 113

In the Ancient Heavenly Palace, Xiao Xiao possesses the Second Hall Master’s token and is targeted by Xia Hong’s group. She initially refuses Lu Chen’s help, but later works with him and provides information on the rarity of the Heavenly Flame Three Transformations. 160 161 She is severely injured during an ambush in the Heavenly Palace, prompting Lu Chen to break through the encirclement. 166

Personality

Xiao Xiao is outwardly cold, stubborn, and unwilling to show weakness. She can be teasing and playful around Lu Chen, particularly when probing his relationship with Lin Jing, but is also capable of manipulation when pursuing the Flame Mantra or other benefits. 97 108

Despite her sharp demeanor, she is kind-hearted toward those close to her. She gives Su Qingyin a Bing Xin Pill for fire poison, and her father describes her as stubborn but kind-hearted. 174 187 Her initial hostility toward Lu Chen gradually gives way to gratitude, trust, and a more vulnerable emotional attachment. 113 191
