Xiao Yu

Power Progression

Background / History

Xiao Yu is Xiao Han's cousin and a Canaan Academy student. At the Xiao Clan's coming-of-age ceremony, she confronts Xiao Han with hostility and orders him to meet her at the Back Mountain that night 103.

At the meeting, Xiao Yu mocks Xiao Han's sudden rise from a “salted fish” to Xiao Clan Patriarch. She accuses him of beating Xiao Yan and forcing Xiao Yan and Xiao Zhan from the clan, though Xiao Han denies the latter charge. Despite claiming she would not defend Xiao Yan, her reaction exposes complicated feelings toward him stemming from their childhood conflict 104.

Xiao Yu's relationship with Xiao Han changes while they travel for Canaan Academy. She uses public affection to provoke her suitor Luo Bu, taking Xiao Han's arm and brushing dust from his clothes in exchange for his help. She promises him a “mysterious prize” afterward 109. She later kisses Xiao Han upon his return to the Xiao Clan, and the two are subsequently seen holding hands openly 113 127.

During the Heavenly Tomb events, Xiao Han gives Xiao Yu the opportunity to absorb the Xiao Clan's Dou Di bloodline rather than taking it for himself. She accepts the painful Blood Exchange because she does not want her talent to fall behind the other women around him 416. The process propels her from Nine Revolutions Dou Zun to Six-Star Dou Sheng, though Xiao Xuan warns that strength gained too quickly could limit her future growth 419.

Appearance

Xiao Yu is noted for her unusually long, shapely legs and increasingly mature figure. Her appearance is often associated with her Canaan Academy uniform and a confident, eye-catching bearing 104 127.

• Fair, rosy skin and naturally long eyelashes 127
• Shallow dimples when she smiles 127
• Wore a fitted white miniskirt during the Inner Academy Selection period 127
• Has a Canaan Academy badge marked with three golden stars 104

Personality

Xiao Yu is sharp-tongued, stubborn, and initially openly disdainful of Xiao Han's rise within the Xiao Clan. Beneath this aggressive manner, Xiao Han considers her soft-hearted rather than malicious 104.

She is capable of using social situations to her advantage, as shown when she leverages Xiao Han's presence to make Luo Bu jealous 109. She is also resolute: when given the chance to improve through the Xiao Clan bloodline, she endures the Blood Exchange to become strong enough to stand alongside Xiao Han and the other women in his life 416.
