Background / History
Ashariyya is the adopted daughter of Holy Son Wen Tai. Expectations surrounding Wen Tai’s legacy placed the Saintess title on her from childhood, despite her refusal to accept Goddess enlightenment or pursue the Goddess position. The pressure and isolation left her regarding friendship as something distant. 217 405
During the Ancient City expedition, Dongfang Chen recognizes her as the Parthenon Saintess and a Goddess candidate, while his System designates her as “Xiao Yu.” She initially dismisses his attempts to approach her as frivolous flirting. After he dispels nearby undead, she reluctantly gives him her Chinese name, Ye Meng'e. 209 211
Ashariyya ultimately accepts Dongfang Chen’s offer of friendship, though she immediately questions whether he is merely trying to court her. Their bond develops through teasing, mutual testing, and increasingly reliable support. 217
Appearance
Ashariyya is usually seen in a black veil that obscures most of her face, leaving her dark eyes, tinged blue, visible. Even veiled, she is described as strikingly beautiful and poised. 370
- Often wears flowing Saintess attire and a black silk veil. 209 370
- Uses practical black-and-brown travel clothing with tied-up hair when entering dangerous wilderness. 371
- Can manifest black armor and a light-silver mask in battle. 417
- Her Fallen Angel Soul manifests as noble-looking jet-black wings; she can presently form two wings rather than six. 548
Personality
Ashariyya is clever, playful, and socially adept. She frequently employs a pitiful expression, flirtatious teasing, or calculated provocation to get what she wants, earning Dongfang Chen’s description of her as a “cunning fox.” Her schemes are usually practical rather than malicious: she tests people, negotiates for help, and prepares contingencies when facing danger. 371 374 441
Behind her composed Saintess persona, Ashariyya is approachable with people she trusts. She values friendship intensely because of her isolated upbringing, yet initially hides her growing feelings for Dongfang Chen behind repeated claims that they are “just friends.” 217 370 405
She remains calm under political pressure. When framed for Penny Jia’s murder, she quickly identifies signs of poisoning, denies the accusation without panic, leaves a coded request for help, and later broadcasts Yi Zhi Sha’s confession to expose the conspiracy. 430 433 443
Abilities & Skills
Space Element Magic
Space is one of Ashariyya’s highest-cultivated elements. She favors combining spatial control with prearranged magic arrays rather than relying only on direct force. 448 600
- Uses Instant Move to evade attacks and reposition rapidly. 417
- Creates Space Gates for summoning and battlefield control. 416
- Deploys spatial magic arrays that can erase incoming force, restrict movement, or lock surrounding space. 600
- Carries a space bracelet capable of constructing a targeted teleportation array. 417
- Left Dongfang Chen a concealed coded message through a miniature Space Element formation mixed with Dark Aura. 433
Shadow Element Magic
Shadow was Ashariyya’s first awakened element, though it is not her highest-cultivated one. 448
- Casts Giant Shadow Spike: Pear Blossom, a rapid barrage of fine shadow needles. 417
- Can conceal a formation’s presence by blending Space Element traces with Dark Aura. 433
- Her Shadow Element nears a Super Tier breakthrough after exposure to the Dark Plane passage. 457
- Dark power is heavily suppressed within the Dark Execution Ground by the Guilty Stone. 447
Summoning Element
Ashariyya’s Summoning Element is among her strongest disciplines. 448
- Summons a Dark Swordsman through a Space Gate; it is an Advanced-Period Commander close to Monarch level. 416
- Later summons a Dark Sword Master, evolved from her former Night Knight and possessing Sub-Monarch strength. 600
- Can strengthen her summon with Blessing Magic, pushing its combat power toward Minor Monarch level. 600
Blessing Element
Ashariyya possesses a notably potent Blessing Element derived from the Parthenon’s purest teachings. 416
- Enhances an ally’s single-element magic by roughly 50% of their combat power, exceeding the 20% enhancement demonstrated by Nanrong Ni. 416
- Uses Saint’s Word: Enhance to amplify her Dark Sword Master. 600
- Purifies Darkness Source from the Black Frost White Coral and converts it into Blessing Power for permanent enhancements. 642
Fallen Angel Soul
Ashariyya possesses both a Dual Soul and a Fallen Angel Soul. Her Fallen Angel identity makes her a Fallen Angel Princess and a prospective Fallen Angel Empress. 406 448
- Can temporarily release Emperor Rank power through the Fallen Angel Soul. 448
- Using that power in the Dark Execution Ground risks alerting Dark Plane Emperors and forcing her return to the Dark Plane. 448
- Her current control is incomplete; she can only manifest two Fallen Angel wings. 548
- The manifested soul power enables her to complete a Guardian Contract with the Black Dragon Emperor, Austin. 548

Their relationship becomes romantic, and he later introduces her as his girlfriend. 217 371 441 448 598
- Holy Son Wen Tai — Adoptive father; his legacy made Ashariyya beloved by the Greek public and placed heavy expectations on her from childhood. 217 405
