Background

Xiao Bai is a transmigrator who inherited the body and bloodline of the Xiao Family’s original Xiao Bai. He acknowledges the deceased couple buried in the Xiao Family graveyard as his parents out of gratitude, despite not being their biological son. 31

Initially short of money and cultivation resources, he discovered that his Cheat could strengthen both his level and learned techniques at the cost of Gold Coins and Energy Points. This discovery became the foundation of his rapid rise. 3 6

After becoming the Xiao Family’s leading member of the younger generation and revealing his One-Star Dou Zhe cultivation, Xiao Bai negotiated resources from the elders, then left Wutan City to seek opportunities in the wider world. 16 24 27 30

• Often carries himself with conspicuous confidence and composure, even when facing stronger opponents. 67 122

Personality

Xiao Bai is ambitious, independent, and unwilling to entrust his future to Xiao Yan or anyone else. He actively gathers wealth, cultivation resources, intelligence, followers, and territory to secure his own path. 30 79 202

He is highly pragmatic in battle. Against enemies such as the Wolf Head Mercenary Group and Mu She, he acts without mercy and favors decisive elimination over leaving future threats behind. 51 65 However, he also buried the mercenaries he killed and marked their grave with a stone stele, showing respect for the dead. 69

Despite his arrogance and fondness for dramatic displays, Xiao Bai values planning and knowledge. He studies opponents before acting, spends extensive time in Jia Nan Academy’s library, and applies what he learns to cultivation, weapons, and faction-building. 128 172 193
