Long Xiao

Biodata

Power Progression

Long Xiao’s strength is described using the Dou Continent’s ranks, although he cultivates spiritual energy rather than Dou Qi 25.

Background / History

Long Xiao’s soul came from Blue Star and entered his new body at birth. Twenty years later, he still remembers his former world but cannot recall the contents of a novel titled “Dou***,” including the female lead he had particularly liked 1.

He grew up as Long Jian’s son among the Heaven Clan’s four lineages, with extraordinary cultivation resources readily available. Bai Ling’er accompanied him from childhood, and the two were betrothed while young. His father’s expertise in alchemy and artifact forging also shaped his professional training 1 13 33.

After Long Xiao, Chu Yuxuan, Xia Yun Yun, and Bai Ling’er entered the God-Suppressing Tower without permission, their fathers ordered them to spend one year tempering themselves in the lower realm. Their mothers supplied treasure-filled rings, while Bai Feng dispatched Xing Yue to protect them. A spatial storm disrupted their journey toward the Dou Continent, separating Long Xiao from his companions 1 2 3.

His stay on the continent is temporary: he expects to leave after a year and return to the Myriad Heavens Academy. He is concerned about the dangers awaiting him there and about securing Medusa’s place within his clan 44.

Appearance

Long Xiao is an exceptionally handsome young man whose slender appearance conceals formidable physical strength 10 15.

• White clothing: Wears white when meeting Xiao Huohuo in the Snake-People Tribe 15.
• Clear, bright eyes: Noted by Xiao Yi Xian after he protects her from a soul attack 32.
• Golden manifestations: His eyes shine gold when using divine techniques; activating his Sacred Body reveals golden bones and an enormous golden dragon surrounding him 3 21 22.
• Concealed aura: Yao Lao initially senses him as though he were an ordinary mortal despite his extraordinary bearing 15.

Personality

Long Xiao is playful, boastful, and openly provocative. He teases Medusa about their age difference, demands affection before sharing a cultivation method, and humiliates opponents with remarks about their weakness. His confidence comes partly from regarding the Dou Continent’s techniques and resources as inferior to those of his homeland 3 10 11 25.

His arrogance does not prevent tactical deception. Suspecting an unseen hostile observer within the Snake-People Tribe, he suppresses his cultivation rather than immediately revealing his full strength. He also combines intimidation with gifts when securing the elders’ approval of his relationship with Medusa 5 7 9.

He is generous toward allies and protective of those he takes under his wing. He shares valuable resources with Xiao Huohuo and Elder Hai, helps Xiao Yi Xian control her Poison Body, and intervenes to save endangered mercenaries. Although he says he dislikes slaughter, he readily uses lethal force against enemies and places a potentially fatal Soul Seal on Iron Protector 15 28 29 35 41 42.

Abilities & Skills
