Background / History

Xiao Wu is a hundred-thousand-year soul beast whose true age is one hundred thousand and six years. Her mother, Da Wu, was close to Ah Yin, the Blue Silver Emperor; Xiao Wu therefore knows of Ah Yin's sacrifice and status within the Star Dou Great Forest. Da Wu was later killed by Bibi Dong, leaving Xiao Wu with an irreconcilable blood feud against the Pope of Spirit Hall. 12 166

While at Nuoding Academy, Xiao Wu initially shares a close “sibling” bond with Tang San. Gu Tian tells her that Tang Hao may have engineered Ah Yin's sacrifice and suggests Tang San could be approaching Xiao Wu for her soul ring and soul bone. Though she initially denies it, this accusation makes her reassess the fact that she has known Tang San for only one month. 12 14

Er Ming takes Xiao Wu to the Lake of Life, where Gu Tian and Gu Yuena confront her with the theory regarding Tang San and Tang Hao. Gu Tian gains her trust, while her confidence in Tang San begins to fracture. 12

After Tang San uses hidden weapons and reveals the Clear Sky Hammer during his battle with Gu Tian, Xiao Wu concludes that Tang San may ultimately have treated her as a future soul ring. She leaves with Gu Yue, accepts Gu Tian's protection, and becomes his ward. 17

Xiao Wu and Gu Tian subsequently formalize their relationship. She becomes increasingly attached to him, although Tang San later suspects that Gu Tian has planted a Love Gu in her. 18 19

Appearance

Xiao Wu is distinguished by her rabbit traits and ruby-colored eyes.

• Soft pink rabbit ears that twitch expressively. 17 31
• Clear, ruby-like eyes. 30 166
• A slender waist. 31
• Her soul rings are unusually high-aged for her stage: a roughly 700-year first ring and a 1,200-year second ring. 22 104

Personality

Xiao Wu is compassionate and trusting, traits Gu Tian characterizes as a rabbit's kindness rather than a fault. Her initial faith in Tang San leaves her vulnerable to Gu Tian's claims, but she eventually becomes decisive once she believes Tang San may endanger her. 14 17

She is also playful and affectionate around Gu Tian, casually linking arms with him and teasing him about Meng Yiran. 31 Despite her emotional sensitivity, she shows practical maturity regarding Gu Tian's relationships, arguing that she and Na'er should become stronger rather than resent additional companions. 30

Her attitude toward Tang San hardens into open disgust. When he declares his love for her in Dragon City, she rejects his advances and chooses to leave with Gu Tian. She also questions Tang San directly over his suspiciously rapid rise to level 20. 176

Continued Conflict with Tang San

Tang San believes Xiao Wu is controlled by Gu Tian through a Love Gu and repeatedly attempts to turn her against him. His efforts fail; later, he threatens Xiao Wu by claiming to have poisoned Gu Tian, and eventually confesses his love in Dragon City, where Xiao Wu rejects him. 19 20 84 176
