Xiao Chunwei

Biodata

Background / History

Xiao Chunwei is a Tenth Order Martial God and the leader of the Righteous Qi Alliance 211. Originally known as Zhang Erdan, he changed his name a thousand years ago to sound more refined 207 259. In his youth, he suffered severe humiliations, exploitation by stronger cultivators, and near-death experiences in a small world, which drove him to obsess over absolute power and mastering ancient array formations as a means to rise to the pinnacle 265 282.

Thousands of years prior, he discovered the hidden protective mountain formation of the ancient Kongyue Sect and spent millennia planning how to crack and control it 267 282. Operating with deep cunning, he temporarily allied with the Six Alliances before withdrawing to form his own faction and eliminate rivals 207 210. He spent ten thousand years preparing a secondary "Yin Manifestation Five Elements Array" beneath the ancient sect's "Yang Ni Five Elements Array" to harvest energy and seize supreme legacies 265 281.

After the opening of the Four Directions Realm, he gathered powerful Tenth Order figures—including the Heavenly Demon Xiang Yu and Xuan Nan—under the guise of exploration, using them as tools to crack the ancient sect's barriers 259 267. He even accepted Jiang Yan as his third disciple to test and utilize his formation talent 272. Ultimately, his grand scheme to usurp the ancient sect's legacy and absorb the power of trapped Martial Gods was disrupted by the 36th Sect Master's stone statue and by Jiang Yan, who saw through his deceptions 282 284. Defeated in a direct clash of formations and true strength against Jiang Yan and the Heavenly Demon, Xiao Chunwei chose to self-destruct rather than surrender 286 287.

Appearance

Xiao Chunwei maintains the appearance of an ancient-style transcendent with handsome features, white hair, and flowing green robes 211 271.

• Flowing green robes and white hair 211 271
• Handsome and distinguished aura 210 271

Personality

Externally, Xiao Chunwei presents himself as a modest, courteous, and righteous leader who cares deeply for his subordinates, earning him widespread respect and loyalty 210 212. In truth, he is deeply cynical, calculating, and ruthless, viewing comrades, allies, and disciples merely as chess pieces or stepping stones for his own ascension 217 276. He harbors profound bitterness from the humiliations of his early cultivation years, which fuels his unyielding obsession with acquiring absolute power 282. He possesses immense patience, executing plans that span over ten thousand years, and remains remarkably adaptable, capable of feigning humility or bending to unfavorable circumstances until the moment is right 259 282.
