Background
Little Mink first appears as a weak, purple-black Heavenly Demon Mink spirit residing in Lin Dong's Stone Talisman. Lin Dong initially mistakes him for a large black rat, an insult that immediately provokes Little Mink's pride. Because he has lost his body and is exceptionally vulnerable, he demands that Lin Dong hide his existence from Wu Yun, whom he suspects may covet his demonic spirit. 39
Despite his arrogance, Little Mink begins assisting Lin Dong in exchange for a promise to seek treasures capable of restoring his Demon Spirit. He claims to have once been a “Number One Mink” and offers guidance so Lin Dong will not fall too far behind Wu Yun. 58
Wu Yun's rescue of Little Mink from Lin Langtian changes his attitude. After awakening again, Little Mink sincerely thanks Wu Yun, accepts him as “big brother,” and joins Wu Yun and Lin Dong as sworn brothers. He unsuccessfully contests Lin Dong for the second-brother position and becomes the third brother instead. 81 85 86
Little Mink later regains his physical body in the Four Mysterious Halls, revealing the terrifying true form of a Heavenly Demon Mink. He eventually returns to the Demon Realm with Xiao Yan to investigate traitors within his clan, then faces Hao Jiuyou in a contest for the Heavenly Demon Mink Clan's next leader candidate. 178 311 344

Personality
Little Mink is intensely proud of his Heavenly Demon Mink heritage and reacts badly to being called a rat. He frequently refers to himself as “Lord Mink,” boasts of his former status, and enjoys intimidating weaker demon beasts. 39 58 163
His arrogance is balanced by caution and pragmatism. While weakened, he hides from Wu Yun and carefully negotiates Lin Dong's help; when faced with dangers beyond his current strength, he readily relies on Wu Yun's protection and planning. 39 70 179
He becomes fiercely loyal to Wu Yun and Lin Dong after Wu Yun saves him. Though he remains competitive with Lin Dong over their brotherly ranking, he considers both men his benefactors and actively contributes techniques, intelligence, and combat support to their group. 85 86 149
