Biodata

Background / History

Nalan Su is introduced as the wealthy and influential middle-aged head of the Nalan Clan in the capital of the Jia Ma Empire, and the father of Nalan Yanran 13 14 16. He first encounters Xiao Xuan at the Mittal Auction House while bidding for a grade-5 Mystic Heart Pill, which he intends to buy to help his daughter 13 14. Enraged when Xiao Xuan outbids him, Nalan Su threatens him with the Nalan Family's influence and sends four Dou Ling guards to attack, only for all four to be killed by Xiao Xuan in a single strike and to discover that Xiao Xuan is a peak five-star Dou Huang 14. Terrified of the consequences, Nalan Su apologizes profusely, flees, and reports the incident to his father, Nalan Jie, who immediately orders him to find and apologize to the powerful youth 14 15.

Upon discovering that Xiao Xuan belongs to the Xiao Clan of Wutan City, Nalan Su accompanies Nalan Jie to visit the Xiao Clan to apologize for both Nalan Yanran breaking off her engagement and Nalan Su's own offense 16 19. Seeking to thoroughly curry favor with Xiao Xuan, Nalan Su later intercepts Jia Liebi—who had brought men to block the Xiao Clan gates—and kills him and his attendants on the spot 20 21. He later witnesses Xiao Xuan refining a tier-7 Ascending Emperor Pill in the back mountain and informs Nalan Jie, and subsequently participates in the Nalan family's ongoing efforts to maintain a favorable relationship with Xiao Xuan 22 56.
