Background / History
Xiao Long was originally a person from Earth who transmigrated into the body of a Xiao Family youth with the same name. The original Xiao Long had lost both parents young, was raised by his grandfather—the Xiao Family's Second Elder—and had developed a reputation as a family bully after relying on that status. His insult toward Xiao Yan provoked Xiao Xun'er, leaving him humiliated and fearful of her power. 1
After taking over the body, Xiao Long chose to abandon the original owner's past conduct and pursue strength. His early cultivation was driven both by a desire to survive in the Dou Qi Continent and by his intention to surpass Xiao Yan before Xiao Yan could become a threat. He acquired techniques and resources through an Exchange System, including Carefree Steps, mechas, pills, and cultivation materials. 10 56
He later founded and led the Nine Heavens Heavenly Court. As its master, he recruited high-level cultivators, directed Demonic Puppets, accumulated resources, and expanded his influence beyond the Black Corner Region and into other worlds. 219 231
Xiao Long repeatedly traveled between worlds and planes in search of cultivation resources, Heavenly Flames, Ancestor Talismans, Plane Embryos, divine artifacts, avatars, and powerful allies. His long-term aim is to become powerful enough to dominate worlds rather than be controlled by a protagonist's fate or stronger forces. 370 600 700 904

Personality
Xiao Long is ambitious, calculating, and intensely focused on gaining power. He routinely identifies valuable opportunities, whether they are rare treasures, exceptional physiques, powerful bodies, or potential allies, and uses them to advance his own position. 102 257 370
He is confident to the point of arrogance, often dismissing opponents he considers weaker and relying on intimidation or overwhelming displays of strength. This confidence sometimes becomes overconfidence, notably when he underestimates Xiao Yan's access to the Plane Embryo. 301 551
Despite his ruthlessness, Xiao Long is capable of practical care toward people he considers his own. He protected the Xiao Family with Demonic Puppets, supported Xiao Gu's upbringing from afar, helped Yao Xueling seek a cure, and left opportunities for Zhang Xiaofan and his companions. 185 575 847 879
