Background / History
Bai Xiaofeng is the Ninth Young Master of Heavenly Snake City. Seeking an advantage in the competition for Young City Lord, he approaches Jiang Donghua to recruit him as an alchemist. Jiang demands rare medicinal ingredients and pill recipes in return; Bai Xiaofeng temporarily obtains the requested items from an auction house to secure his cooperation 128.
His attempt to claim Jiang Donghua’s allegiance brings him into direct conflict with his brother, Bai Wuchen. Their dispute escalates into a destructive fight until Great Elder Bai Yan suppresses them and confines both brothers to their estates 130.
Bai Xiaofeng later commissions Jiang Donghua to refine Fire Spirit Pills, supplying medicinal ingredients worth two million gold coins for practice. His ambition makes him accept the arrangement despite its cost and risk 133.
