Background / History

A transmigrator who arrived generations before Xiao Yan, Xiao Han displayed exceptional talent from childhood: he began cultivating at four, became a Dou Practitioner at eight, a Dou Shi at nine, a Da Dou Shi at eleven, and a Dou Ling before thirteen. He left the Xiao Clan to travel after turning fifteen. 1

During his travels, Xiao Han became trapped in a Secret Realm for over a century. He eventually escaped as a Six-Star Dou Sheng and immediately returned to the declining Xiao Clan, whose leader, Xiao Lin, had been grievously injured. He healed Xiao Lin with a medicinal pill and his own Dou Qi, then took responsibility for safeguarding and restoring the clan. 1 2

Xiao Han learned that the Xiao Clan was descended from the ancient Xiao Tribe and was threatened by the Soul Tribe's pursuit of the Tuo She Ancient Emperor Jade. To reduce attention from the Soul Hall, he chose to relocate the clan away from the Imperial Capital and build its strength discreetly. 2

He became the central force behind Langya Pavilion, cultivated and protected its members, and formed partnerships with figures including Yi Huang, Hai Bodong, Ye Jianxin, and Fallen Thunder Crystal Ice. His later investigations into the Sealed World, the Evil race, and other continents carried him beyond the Dou Qi Continent into the Great Thousand World. 15 104 142 378

• Often appears in white robes. 1
• Has a notably handsome, refined appearance. 1
• His black hair became crystal blue while employing a dangerous secret technique. 461

Personality

Xiao Han generally favors equal exchange and refuses to oppress others merely because of his cultivation. However, he is ruthless toward those who maliciously provoke him or threaten those under his protection. 3

His strongest motivation is the survival and resurgence of the Xiao Clan. He regularly plans years ahead, strengthens younger generations, conceals sensitive clan information, and prepares safeguards for potential crises. 2 43 275 310

Though confident and sometimes teasing, Xiao Han is capable of remorse. The destruction of Shan Qian Village left him guilty over the consequences of his actions; he buried the dead personally and erected their tombstones. He also sincerely apologized to Yi Huang after his reckless actions in the Sealed World. 23 106
