Background

Xun'er was raised within the Xiao Family while concealing her Ancient Clan identity and mission. Her assignment was to locate the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade, though she was reluctant to expose herself even when she feared Xiao Ze's stalled cultivation would permanently limit him. She initially planned to ask Ling Ying to examine his condition. 3 6

At the first recorded Xiao Family test, Xun'er displayed ninth-stage Dou Qi. She developed a close attachment to Xiao Ze, repeatedly comforting him when he was considered talentless, guarding him through a breakthrough, and celebrating his sudden rise to the Dou Zhe realm. 1 2 3

Xun'er has no special attachment to Xiao Yan in this timeline, viewing him only as an ordinary cousin. Her affection instead centers on Xiao Ze, whose increasingly dramatic cultivation gains repeatedly leave her astonished while motivating her to train harder herself. 9 17 18

Appearance

Xun'er is portrayed as a beautiful young girl, usually dressed in green robes or a green dress. Her normally restrained demeanor can shift sharply when Xiao Ze is threatened. 3 6 10

• Green robes and green dresses are her recurring attire. 3 6
• Golden flames flash in her eyes while warning Nalan Yanran against retaliating against Xiao Ze. 10
• Her rare smiles are described as especially striking against her usual cold and aloof bearing. 9

Personality

Xun'er is attentive and protective toward Xiao Ze. She visits him when she believes he is struggling, stands guard during his cultivation, seeks information on anyone who may be aiding or endangering him, and secretly arranges protection for his journey into the Magic Beast Mountain Range. 2 3 28 44

She is also proud and determined. Rather than accepting the widening gap between her cultivation and Xiao Ze's, she trains, requests his guidance, and insists that she will not easily admit defeat. 17 18

Her devotion becomes possessive when Xiao Yi Xian enters Xiao Ze's life. Xun'er openly competes for his attention and regards Xiao Yi Xian as a threat to the relationship she has built with him. 52 53
