History

Separation from Shrek Academy

While accompanying the Shrek group in Star Dou Forest, Xiao Wu was seized by Er Ming, the Titan Giant Ape, and carried away from her classmates and teachers. Er Ming had acted because he missed her and feared that humans had deceived her. 58 59

At the Lake of Life, Xiao Wu scolded Er Ming for abruptly taking her from her companions, worrying that Tang San would be frantic. She chose to remain briefly in order to break through Rank 30 and condense her third Soul Ring without revealing that she was a transformed soul beast. Da Ming and Er Ming guarded her during the process. 59

Capture by Yang Jian

Yang Jian located Xiao Wu at the Lake of Life and captured her while using her safety to force Da Ming and Er Ming into an impossible choice. Er Ming ultimately mortally injured himself in an attempt to save her, but Yang Jian still took him away and later absorbed his hundred-thousand-year soul ring. 59 60 61

Xiao Wu mourned Er Ming's death, but Yang Jian silenced her by threatening Da Ming. He subsequently compelled her to follow him by threatening both Da Ming and Tang San. 61

Life Under Yang Jian

Xiao Wu travelled with Yang Jian, Zhu Zhuqing, and later Ning Rongrong. Yang Jian kept close watch on her to prevent an escape, and Zhu Zhuqing was assigned to share a room with and monitor her. 62 68

When Xiao Wu showed pity for a slain Ghost Shadow Cat, Yang Jian rebuked her for worrying about another soul beast while unable to protect herself. The incident intensified her fear for her own future. 68

When Tang San later encountered her beside Yang Jian, Xiao Wu instinctively wanted to approach him but stopped after noticing Yang Jian. She remained silent and lowered her head despite Tang San's pleas, demonstrating the effect of Yang Jian's threats and control. 100

Over time, Xiao Wu became emotionally numb and believed she had nowhere safe to go: Tang San might no longer accept her, Da Ming remained endangered, and humans continued to hunt transformed soul beasts. 131 She later remained in Yang Jian's household alongside Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong, serving as one of his maids. 151

Personality

Xiao Wu is deeply attached to Tang San, Da Ming, and Er Ming. Her decision to conceal her identity by forming her own third soul ring was motivated by concern that a normal soul-ring hunt would expose her nature to her Shrek companions. 59

She retains strong empathy toward soul beasts, grieving for Er Ming and pitying the Ghost Shadow Cat killed for Zhu Zhuqing's soul ring. 61 68 However, Yang Jian's repeated threats leave her fearful, withdrawn, and increasingly resigned to her circumstances. She visibly tenses around him even in ordinary household settings. 131 211

Despite her circumstances, Xiao Wu can still be playful and competitive, particularly in her arguments with Ning Rongrong. 97 98
