Background / History

Xiao Hua began life as Zhang Xiaohua, a youth who pursued cultivation after his grandmother’s death so that his family could live well. He cultivated alone in the End-of-Law Divine Continent, tempered his body, and obtained foundational techniques and treasures including the Big Dipper Divine Fist and a furnace from the Incense Transmission Sect. 6 7 21

After being teleported to Xiaoyu Continent, he lost his memories following a soul-search by two Nascent Soul cultivators. Xiao Yuehong accepted him as a disciple and renamed him Xiao Hua; after his sect’s destruction, he retained Xiao Hua as his true name. 25

He cultivated through the Feathered Immortal Convention and the Sword Dao trials, becoming renowned for the Phoenix and his unnamed Nascent Soul. In the Four Great Continents, he became the Moon God, subdued demons, and led the Gate of Creation against the demon realm in the Moon God Ruins. 6 7

During his ascent, Xiao Hua’s primordial spirit divided into nine major avatars. Their essences supported his passage through tribulation, but he entered the Immortal Realm as a vulnerable, star-filled Nascent Soul. His arrival immediately drew the attention of the Palace of Law Enforcement due to karma connected to Xu Zhi, Star Moon Fairy, Ye Qiong Heavenly Mansion, and the Divine Cultivation Mirror. 9 10 28

Personality

Xiao Hua is resilient, adaptable, and highly cautious in unfamiliar territory. While physically weakened after ascending, he repeatedly relies on deception, escape, concealment, and calculated risk-taking rather than direct confrontation. 30 36 39 50

He retains a strong sense of responsibility toward his family, sect, and the wider world. His rise from a cultivator seeking security for his family to a figure who saves a realm is driven by perseverance and an unswerving cultivation heart. 6 7
