Background / History
Poseidon was initially kept by Zheng Qing as a pet fox. Zheng Qing did not realize she was female and regarded her unusual intelligence as that of a particularly capable magical creature. He considered taking her on lake patrols and sought ways to keep her safely under his care. 132
Su Shijun later revealed that Poseidon and “Neptune” are Greek and Latin names for the same individual. Poseidon is Su Shijun’s avatar, created as part of Su Shijun’s attempt to advance to Archwizard; Zheng Qing was told that he was Poseidon’s father through a nontraditional wizarding method of procreation. 192
As Poseidon grew, Zheng Qing and Su Shijun assumed parental and guardian roles. Su Shijun prepared a formal curriculum of compulsory and elective subjects, while Zheng Qing worried over Poseidon’s fees, safety, homework, and supervision. 141 596
Poseidon eventually underwent a transformation ceremony and began appearing as a young fox girl or Little Witch. She later formed the Dongdong Hunting Team with three Great Sprites, Su Ya, a furry dragon, and a gray dog. 494 3340
During the Xuanhuang Small World operations, Poseidon developed her Original Spiritual Light through repeated use of the Ragdoll Fox. After Jiang Yu left Central Base, she spent time with Little Jade, Jiang Yu’s jade incarnation, and followed her into the Sea of Laws. There, Poseidon was offered a choice of cultivation paths and chose Lunar Yin, seeking both growth and proximity to Little Jade. 3581 3587 3588
Appearance
Poseidon commonly appears as a small fox, but can also manifest as a young fox girl or a ragdoll-like fox form.
- Small fox with prominent ears, a tail, and little paws. 245 617
- In Little Witch form, she has a smooth forehead, straight facial features, red lips, white teeth, and clear ears. 3484
- Can disguise herself within a mana cocoon resembling a mutated slime. 3340
- Has used doll bodies and a ragdoll fox body while separating from her physical form. 3496 3507
- While exposed to the Lunar Law’s grid, her ears, tail, hair, clothing, and physical boundaries began to blur into the surrounding environment before the assimilation was stopped. 3588
Personality
Poseidon is playful, energetic, curious, and frequently disobedient. She sneaks into places, eavesdrops on adults, leaves messes behind, and regularly avoids homework through naps, games, or other distractions. 211 593 1359 3499
She can also be impulsive and reckless. She hired someone to complete her homework and nearly signed a Demon Contract, leading to discipline from Su Shijun. 396
Despite her immaturity, Poseidon has grown more responsible and independent. She accepted responsibility for a failed investment, pursued doll-making for income, and developed a strong desire for financial freedom. 3074 3507 3508
In dangerous situations, she can show unexpected strategic insight. During the monster tide in the Xuanhuang Small World, she questioned the consequences of killing the Monster King and proposed that the monsters’ sacrifices might be intended to heal it or contaminate restored Earth Qi. 3527 3535
Poseidon is courageous and intensely curious in the face of the unknown, though her enthusiasm can override caution. She continued praying and entered the True Self’s golden-red river of light despite fear and confusion, then firmly selected Lunar Yin after reflecting on what she truly wanted. 3585 3586 3588
She is also affectionate toward those she recognizes as family or mentors. She showed concern for Little Jade after their shared vision and chose Lunar Yin partly because she wished to remain near her. 3583 3588

Story Role / Major Arcs
Zheng Qing’s Pet Fox

During a physical examination at the Two-Dimensional Evolution Laboratory, Su Shijun explains Poseidon’s true identity as her avatar and tells Zheng Qing that he is Poseidon’s father. 192
Education and Upbringing

Sea of Laws Ascension
After being left at Central Base with Little Jade, Poseidon receives a temporary reprieve from additional homework and becomes fascinated by the White Tiger’s distant battle.

Within the Sea of Laws, Poseidon reaches the Lunar Law’s grid and is offered the Illusion Law or Lunar Yin as possible paths. She chooses Lunar Yin to remain close to Little Jade, but her form begins to lose definition under the Law’s influence until protective intervention prevents her assimilation. 3587 3588
