Background / History
Human-Society Infiltration
Xiao Wu entered human society after taking human form, driven by the murder of her mother and a desire to find talented humans she could cultivate into allies against Martial Soul Hall. She also hoped to experience the romance her mother had once known. Tang San became her preferred candidate because the natural scent of his Blue Silver Grass reminded her of the Star Dou Forest. 18 22
After secretly forming her first soul ring, Xiao Wu returned to Nuoding Academy and saw the aftermath of Tang San's fight with Lin Nuo. Lin Nuo's face, hair, and oppressive aura reminded her of the woman who killed her mother; overwhelmed by the memory, she attacked him with Waist Bow. 18 19
Tang San pulled her out of the path of Lin Nuo's Death Demon Scythe with Blue Silver Entangle. Xiao Wu was nearly killed, then recoiled at the foul smell of Tang San's Tyrant Flower ring and openly criticized Yu Xiaogang's choice of soul ring. 19 20
Although Lin Nuo denied any connection to her mother's killer, Xiao Wu remained suspicious. She nevertheless agreed to follow Yu Xiaogang's arrangements alongside Tang San, intending to use Tang San's potential for her eventual revenge. 20 21 22
Shrek Academy and Exposure Risk
By age twelve, Xiao Wu had reached level 25 and left with Tang San for Shrek Academy under Yu Xiaogang's recommendation. 65
During the Star Dou Forest expedition, the Titan Giant Ape abducted her, prompting Tang San to pursue her and suffer severe injuries from the creature's aura. Yu Xiaogang blamed Xiao Wu for allowing Tang San to face that danger. 72 83
As Shrek moved toward Heaven Dou City and the Soul Master Tournament, Xiao Wu became increasingly worried that high-level spirit masters would recognize her true identity. Her transformed soul-beast aura was subsequently noticed by powerful spectators during the Imperial Fighting Team's match against Shrek. 115 128
Yu Xiaogang later confronted Xiao Wu privately, revealed that he knew she was a transformed Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, and gave her a remnant Blue Silver Grass vine from Ah Yin to conceal her aura. He also informed her that Tang San's mother had likewise been a Hundred-Thousand-Year soul beast in human form. 141
Although the vine concealed her from human observers for a time, it was later knocked away during the Soul Master Tournament, fully exposing Xiao Wu's transformed soul-beast identity before the gathered powers of Spirit City. 258 259 262
Star Dou Forest Crisis
The Sky Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape defended Life Lake and Xiao Wu's former home against invading human Title Douluo, regarding her as their beloved sister. 170 171
After the two soul beasts were defeated, Lin Nuo forced them to abandon self-destruction by threatening Xiao Wu's safety. They agreed to sacrifice themselves only after Lin Nuo swore not to harm her unless she actively sought death. 171 172
Daming and Er Ming ultimately sacrificed themselves to Lin Nuo. Their Hundred-Thousand-Year soul rings entered his Rakshasa Spider Emperor and Soul-Eater Spider Emperor respectively, while their left and right arm soul bones fused into him. 174
Loss of Daming and Er Ming
During the Soul Master Tournament, Xiao Wu was severely injured after shielding others from Dragon Whisker Needles, but Tang San extracted the needles and saved her life. While recovering, she sensed Daming and Er Ming's aura from Lin Nuo's Hundred-Thousand-Year soul rings and realized that her two younger brothers had died, leaving her feeling completely orphaned. 200
Xiao Wu asked Tang San to avenge Daming and Er Ming. Although Tang San initially wanted to return their soul bones to Life Lake, she urged him to absorb them after reclaiming them from Lin Nuo so that her brothers' power could continue protecting her through him. 200
When Tang San later entered the Star Dou Forest to obtain soul rings for his Clear Sky Hammer, Xiao Wu accompanied him to search for evidence of Daming and Er Ming's fate. Troubled by the killing of soul beasts, she asked Tang San whether all soul beasts deserved to die; he promised to hunt only evil soul beasts. 212
That promise was broken when Martial Soul Hall Worships coerced Tang San into killing and absorbing four Soft Bone Rabbits for his Clear Sky Hammer. Xiao Wu recognized that the rabbits were descendants of her own bloodline and blamed herself for failing to protect them. 213 214 216
Xiao Wu later reached the devastated Life Lake with Tang San and Tang Xiao. The destruction of her former home and the loss of her family left her heartbroken, though she gradually began emerging from her grief afterward. 217 223
During Shrek's match against the Star Luo Royal Team, Xiao Wu withstood Zhu Zhuyun's Hell Hundred Claws with Invincible Golden Body, but was thrown from the battle by a subsequent Hell Slash. Her injury drove Tang San to create the self-created skills later collectively named the Three Dance Masterworks in her honor. 247 248
Sacrifice in Spirit City
Following Tang Hao's death and the exposure of her identity, Bibi Dong ordered Xiao Wu's capture as a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Rabbit. Lin Nuo compounded the pressure by portraying those who protected her as traitors to humanity, while Tang San positioned himself before her despite the overwhelming strength of Martial Soul Hall. 259 262
Xiao Wu chose to sacrifice herself to protect Tang San and the sect behind him. She initially offered Bibi Dong her soul ring and spirit bone in exchange for their safety, but deliberately redirected the sacrifice to Lin Nuo instead. She reasoned that empowering Bibi Dong would strengthen Tang San's future enemy, while sacrificing to Tang San would provoke further retaliation against him. 263
Her sacrifice created a Hundred-Thousand-Year soul ring in the second ring slot of Lin Nuo's Soul-Eater Spider Emperor and produced a Hundred-Thousand-Year left leg spirit bone, which Lin Nuo stored rather than fused. Xiao Wu attempted to leave a Charm soul skill within the ring to interfere with Lin Nuo, but the Evil God King removed it and refined the ring's power into Invincible Golden Body and Void for Lin Nuo. 264
Xiao Wu's human form disappeared at the sacrifice's conclusion, leaving a small Soft Bone Rabbit body behind. Tang Xiao escaped Spirit City with Tang San and her remaining body; although it remains alive, Xiao Wu's consciousness and cultivation have not returned. 264 283
Appearance
Xiao Wu appears as a young human girl, though her rabbit traits remain visible in the form of prominent rabbit ears and ruby-like eyes. Her fighting style emphasizes the explosive strength and speed of her legs. 19 20
- Rabbit ears that visibly droop when she is distressed. 20
- Ruby-like eyes that turn red when her mother's death is recalled. 19
- Slender but powerful legs used to execute Waist Bow. 19
- A soul-beast aura that can expose her identity to sufficiently powerful observers. 128 141
- Her vitality as a transformed Hundred-Thousand-Year soul beast exceeds that of ordinary soul masters of similar cultivation, allowing her to survive serious injuries from Dragon Whisker Needles. 200
- Following her sacrifice, her human form vanished and her remaining body became a small Soft Bone Rabbit. 264
Personality
Xiao Wu is impulsive and emotionally direct, especially where her mother and Martial Soul Hall are concerned. Seeing Lin Nuo immediately triggered her trauma and drove her to attack before confirming whether he was truly connected to the killer. 19 20
She is strongly drawn to Tang San, initially because his Blue Silver Grass carried a natural scent that reminded her of home. Despite Tang San harshly defending Yu Xiaogang against her criticism, she remained committed to cultivating him as a future ally and chose to stay near him even when exposure became dangerous. 18 20 22 115
Her experience as a soul beast gives her blunt opinions about soul beasts and soul-ring choices. She recognizes the Tyrant Flower as weak and foul-smelling rather than a valuable ring source. 19 20
Xiao Wu is deeply empathetic toward soul beasts and was distressed by the prospect of Tang San killing them for soul rings. After witnessing her own descendants being sacrificed for Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer, her hatred of Martial Soul Hall intensified. 212 213 216
Despite her grief over Daming and Er Ming, Xiao Wu prioritizes Tang San's ability to protect her and avenge them. She willingly asks him to absorb their soul bones should he reclaim them from Lin Nuo. 200
Her devotion to Tang San ultimately outweighs her fear of death. Even after Lin Nuo's accusations briefly cause her to question whether Tang San might value her as a source of power, she chooses to trust him and sacrifices herself to preserve his future. 262 263
Xiao Wu remains calculating even in sacrifice. Rather than permit Bibi Dong or Tang San to receive her power directly, she redirects it to Lin Nuo to deny Bibi Dong its benefit, waste a soul-ring slot, and preserve a possible means of undermining Lin Nuo in the future. 263 264
