Background / History

The Little White Ape first appeared as a dying white-furred ape with wings, having fallen from the sky while calling for the “Paper Master” to save it. Lin Yan's Abnormal Ovum extended eighteen black-and-crimson tendrils around its corpse; the ape was later revived through the Nirvana Divine Egg. 97 107

Duke Lu identified its exceptional dual bloodline: one resembling the White Flame Ancient Ape and another linked to the Sheng Yu Divine Bird, the likely origin of its wings. Although it is often treated as a demon, its rebirth through Lin Yan and the Nirvana Divine Egg left it partly human in nature and able to enter Sanctuaries without suffering the usual ill omen. 113 136

Lin Yan raised it as a disciple and used the Azure Point Spirit Attachment to pass on knowledge, skills, and portions of his own thoughts. This inheritance lets the ape operate paper figures, use learned techniques, and retain some of Lin Yan's memories, temperament, and abilities. 118 144 289

It later encountered the Red-Clad Woman, whom it recognized as its mother. The ape remained distressed by her disappearance and shared Lin Yan's determination to find her. 144 222

Its principal personal grievance was against Lone Boat Eerie Mist, which devoured its grandfather and was responsible for the ape's own death before its rebirth. In the Underworld, it used Duke Lu's final Word Manifestation token to amplify its grandfather's remaining imprint within Lone Boat Eerie Mist. With Lin Yan's Creation Dao Seed stabilizing the result, the grandfather became the dominant soul and received the method to refine the Middle Underworld Prison General's Military Tally. 155 709

It is deeply loyal to Lin Yan and recognizes their unusual closeness, at one point describing itself as “another” Lin Yan. It worries about Lin Yan's safety, supports his plans even under mortal threat, and tries to lighten his mood through banter alongside Niu Yan. 146 289 501 541

It is also materialistic and ambitious. The ape regularly asks for salary, paper, medicinal resources, and rewards, while maintaining a long-running wish to marry eighteen concubines. 155 358 387
