Background / History

Su Xiao was adopted by foster parents later identified as the Contractors known as Blood Eagle and Poison Orchid. He initially believed they had been murdered by Contractors and devoted himself to revenge. Reincarnation Paradise later revealed that his foster parents were not blood-related to him, had adopted him while concealing their identities, and that the team responsible for their deaths was already gone. The revelation frees him from the purpose that had driven him for years. 297 382 383

Before and alongside his life as a Contractor, Su Xiao worked as a hitman. His competence, caution, and reputation make even military figures wary of provoking him. 467 644

Upon becoming a Hunter, Su Xiao receives the Shadow of Law Destruction inheritance and enters Reincarnation Paradise. He eventually abandons revenge as his central motive, choosing instead to pursue strength, uncover Reincarnation Paradise's mysteries, and live according to his own will. 24 383 384

His body, rather than merely his consciousness, enters Reincarnation Paradise. This causes him to vanish from the real world during each stay and limits how much contact he maintains there. 378

Appearance

Su Xiao has a lean, toned build designed for speed and flexibility rather than bulk. He has black hair and is often described as sharp, dangerous, and physically imposing. 12 879 3066

• Frequently removes his shirt before fighting because he believes it sharpens his senses. 35
• Can suppress his murderous aura and pass as an ordinary young tourist through disguise and controlled mannerisms. 708
• Often fights with a long blade held in a relaxed one-handed guard, its point angled toward the ground. 3644

Personality

Su Xiao is pragmatic, highly observant, and relentlessly focused on survival and combat efficiency. He studies opponents, identifies weaknesses, and rejects unnecessary complexity in favor of techniques that reliably kill or disable his target. 817 2201 2356

He is ruthless toward enemies and treats beauty, status, and social standing as irrelevant in combat. At the same time, he is not indiscriminately violent: he forms alliances when interests align, helps those he considers worth helping, and protects his core companions. 795 1336 3454

His poor Charisma becomes an unusual advantage. Rather than persuading others through charm, he often creates cooperation through intimidation, blunt honesty, and the certainty that he will act on his threats. 997 3306 3879
