Background / History

Entry into the Human World and Capture

Xiao Wu takes human form after Bibi Dong kills her mother, intending to cultivate until she can take revenge. Newly transformed, she is curious about human life but unfamiliar with its currency and expenses; her lack of money leaves her eating wild greens during her journey 2 3 24.

Ye Yan intercepts her near Linxi City, posing as an obedient child. Xiao Wu appoints herself his big sister and accepts his offer to pay for meals, shopping, and lodging. He exploits her fondness for carrot juice to drug her, then carries her into a prepared cave and binds her 2 3.

Inside the cave, Ye Yan reveals that he knows her identity. He promises to avenge her mother and resurrect them both after inheriting the Sea God’s power, but threatens to kill Xiao Wu for her soul bone if she refuses to sacrifice herself. With no safe escape, she reluctantly agrees. Before beginning, she bites his arm and warns him to honor his promise 3.

Rabbit Form and Revival

After the sacrifice, Ye Yan keeps Xiao Wu’s original rabbit body with him. She has lost her memories and reacts instinctively, including kicking when he showers her with affection. During a later mountain stop, hunger drives her to nearly eat Ah Yin’s weakened stems and leaves; Ye Yan intervenes and feeds her carrots 3 5.

Ye Yan obtains Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng from Old White Bird’s storage ring and feeds it to her. The herb restores her intelligence, allowing her to confront him about drugging her and forcing her sacrifice. He then offers the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, whose attraction interrupts her anger 15.

After consuming the chrysanthemum, Xiao Wu regains human form. She becomes openly affectionate toward Ye Yan, asking him to feed her snacks and provoking Dugu Yan with his attentiveness. The group eventually moves its cultivation from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to Dugu Manor, where they can also go shopping 16.

Romance and the Unresolved Blood Feud

Xiao Wu objects when Ye Yan decides to join Spirit Hall, reminding him that its Pope killed her mother. He reassures her that revenge must wait until they are stronger and explicitly declares his feelings. She accepts him and bites his collarbone, leaving a mark associated with a soul beast’s claim on a mate 20.

Their reunion after more than half a year turns hostile when Bibi Dong appears. Xiao Wu recognizes her mother’s killer and attempts to attack, but Ye Yan restrains her. His defense of Bibi Dong—that soul masters hunting soul beasts is natural—makes Xiao Wu feel betrayed. His renewed promise to resurrect Ah Rou after attaining godhood partly calms her 32 33.

Return to the Star Dou Great Forest

Ye Yan persuades Xiao Wu to help deceive Da Ming, arguing that sacrifice would let him become a god sooner and eventually resurrect her companions, whereas Bibi Dong could otherwise kill them. Torn between protecting her brothers and losing them, Xiao Wu agrees in exchange for daily access to Ye Yan’s fox tail. Bibi Dong subsequently knocks her unconscious before the group enters the forest 33.

Bibi Dong ambushes and kills Er Ming. Ye Yan then carries Xiao Wu deeper into the forest while the Ice Empress stages a pursuit. Although Xiao Wu knows they are acting, Ye Yan’s deliberately injured appearance still distresses her. Da Ming accepts their apparent danger as genuine and shields them despite severe wounds 34.

Xiao Wu refuses to abandon Ye Yan and urges Da Ming to escape rather than become another loss. Da Ming instead sacrifices himself to protect them. She weeps afterward, and Ye Yan comforts her with another promise that her companions will be resurrected 35.

Appearance

• Human form: An adorable girl dressed in pink; first appears wearing a short pink skirt and carrying a cute cloth shoulder bag 2 16.
• Original form: A small white rabbit, easily carried in Ye Yan’s arms or stored in the Wishful Treasure Bag 3 15 16.
• After the ginseng: Her rabbit fur becomes noticeably glossier, although she does not immediately recover human form 15.

Personality

Xiao Wu is outgoing, curious, and proud of being the “big sister.” She quickly adopts Ye Yan as her little brother and enjoys his attention, meals, gifts, and companionship. Her enthusiasm for food includes a large appetite, a particular fondness for carrot juice, and impatience with shelling nuts herself 2 16.

She is trusting but not without resistance. When betrayed, she protests directly, bites Ye Yan, and insists that his forced sacrifice cannot simply be forgiven. Her feelings later change because she interprets his continued care and use of priceless herbs as evidence that he values her beyond her soul ring and soul bone 3 15 16.

Her attachment becomes jealous and competitive, especially toward Dugu Yan. Beneath that rivalry, Xiao Wu remains deeply loyal: she refuses to leave Ye Yan during the staged crisis and grieves for Da Ming and Er Ming even after agreeing to the plan intended to secure their eventual resurrection 16 34 35.

Abilities & Skills

Human Transformation and Recovery

Xiao Wu can take human form as a hundred-thousand-year soul beast. Her post-sacrifice recovery requires rare medicinal resources 2 3 15 16.

• The sacrifice leaves her in rabbit form without her memories 3.
• Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng restores intelligence and speech 15.
• The Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum completes her return to human form 16.

Sacrifice

Her sacrifice transfers a hundred-thousand-year soul ring and the Soft Bone Rabbit Left Leg Bone to Ye Yan 3.

• Soul-ring abilities: Void and Moon of the Nine Heavens 3.
• Soul-bone abilities: Teleportation and Invincible Golden Body 3.
• Immediate consequence: The sacrifice generates a towering scarlet domain, attracting nearby soul masters despite Ye Yan’s concealment preparations 3.
• Personal cost: Xiao Wu loses her human form and memories. The listed skills are explicitly acquired by Ye Yan; the passages do not establish her using them herself 3.

Soul-Beast Perception

Xiao Wu senses a familiar yet different aura from the Snow Empress and Ice Empress, leading her to suspect that they are soul beasts in human form before Ye Yan introduces them 33.

Relationships

• Dugu Yan — Romantic rival and Ye Yan’s fiancée. Xiao Wu reacts jealously to their engagement and deliberately flaunts Ye Yan’s affection in front of her 16 19.
• Ye Lingling — A member of Ye Yan’s circle who rejects Xiao Wu’s sweeping condemnation of men and defends him as a good person 16.
• Ah Yin — Fellow transformed soul beast. Xiao Wu nearly eats her while amnesiac, but later sympathizes with her after hearing Ye Yan’s account of Tang Hao’s conduct 5 16.
