Background & History
Little Fox is born in the mountain forest near the Shangqing Palace's Scripture Repository Pavilion to the Fox Woman and the Thousand-Year Sword God of the Old Land 18 19. Her mother had endured centuries of torture in the Luochuan Sect's Demon Refining Tower while pregnant to protect her, before eventually performing the Concentric Life and Death Tribulation to reunite with her fallen husband 19. Following her mother's peaceful dispersal, the newborn cub is left in the care of Li Jiusheng 19 20.
Initially terrified of humans due to inherited memories of the Demon Refining Tower, Little Fox maintains a cautious distance, surviving on food and pills secretly provided by Li Jiusheng 20 21 26. Over the following months, she grows, begins absorbing spiritual energy independently, and eventually starts mimicking Li Jiusheng's martial arts practices 21 26. She develops a deep bond of trust and affection with Li Jiusheng, eventually adopting the name Bai Xiaobai upon learning to speak 27 38. She accompanies Li Jiusheng through various trials, including explorations of dangerous ruins, and grows into a powerful young Nine-tailed Demonic Fox 48 55 72.
