Xiao Huohuo

Biodata

Power Progression

Appearance

Xiao Huohuo is a lean young man with resolute features and a muscular build despite his thin frame 27.

• Wears black robes and a hood while keeping a low profile at the Drunken Immortal Pavilion 31.
• Carries a jade pendant on his chest that houses Dan Chen's remnant soul 27.

Personality

Xiao Huohuo places deep importance on affection, loyalty, and repaying kindness. He credits Dan Chen for his achievements, promises to reconstruct his master's body, and prioritizes finding soul-restoring medicine over immediately pursuing revenge against Lin Fan 27 38.

His loyalty also makes him reckless. After learning of his father's death and his clan's destruction, he advances toward Lin Fan despite Dan Chen's warning that he is outmatched. Dan Chen explicitly regards this devotion as both the reason he chose Xiao Huohuo and a flaw that could get him killed 33.

He is daring in cultivation and confident in his own strength. He attempts the dangerous fusion of three Heavenly Flames while still in the Spirit Sea Realm. After reaching the middle Heavenly Dipper Realm, he dismisses Lin Fan as a weak opponent without his powerful protectors 27 38.

History

Early Life and Broken Engagement

According to the life script displayed to Lin Fan, Xiao Huohuo was a childhood genius who became regarded as a good-for-nothing after a breakthrough. Nalan Jia broke off their engagement, humiliating him before his later rise in the Kun Sect 33.

He also rescued Gu Xun'er after she escaped her clan and encountered danger. The two privately pledged themselves to each other for life. Her clan's ancestor required Xiao Huohuo to become a Great Emperor within thirty years before he could marry her 35.

Conflict with the Kun Sect

The Kun Sect accused Xiao Huohuo of harming fellow disciples and refusing its judgment. Ji Changju and Ji Kun reported that he killed several Sage elders, gravely wounded the sect's Half-Step Great Sage ancestor, and escaped. They sought the Lin Clan's protection against his eventual return 26.

Xiao Huohuo's recollection gives a different account: Zhang San attempted to steal his Purple Blaze Flame and was consumed by it. Zhang San's grandfather then fabricated charges against him to obtain the flame. With Dan Chen's assistance, Xiao Huohuo killed the grandfather and complicit elders, wounded the ancestor, and fled, severely exhausting his master's soul power 27.

Lin Fan recognized that the Kun Sect's account was one-sided but accepted it as a pretext to target a Son of Fortune. He subsequently dispatched two Lin Clan Sages to assist in Xiao Huohuo's capture 27 28.

Pursuit and Destruction of the Xiao Clan

After completing his Heavenly Flame fusion, Xiao Huohuo planned to travel to the Primordial Chaos Realm. During the pursuit, two Kun Sect Half-Sages died, and Xiao Huohuo escaped toward Luo River Province after severely injuring a Lin Clan Sage. Dan Chen was left badly injured and unconscious 27 30.

Lin Fan then ordered Xiao Tianzhan's death and the extermination of the Xiao Clan of Wutan City. Xiao Huohuo learned of the massacre through cultivators discussing it at the Drunken Immortal Pavilion; the shock caused him to spit blood, and his Dao heart became unstable 30 31 32.

Drunken Immortal Pavilion

Seven Heavenly Dipper cultivators attacked Xiao Huohuo, hoping to capture him and gain Lin Fan's favor. He initially fought them evenly, then killed all seven with a damaged imperial medicine cauldron. The cauldron also allowed the pavilion master to recognize him as Medicine Immortal Valley's successor 32 33.

Determined to avenge his family, Xiao Huohuo approached Lin Fan despite Dan Chen's warning. The pavilion master intervened with a Great Emperor-level attack. Xiao Huohuo countered with the Ancient Spirit Emperor Flame, but was gravely wounded and lost his cauldron. Dan Chen burned his divine soul and damaged his origin to protect him, falling into a near-death state 33.

Enveloped in immortal light, Xiao Huohuo survived and escaped through an opening into the Primordial Chaos Realm before its general opening 33 34.

Primordial Chaos Realm

Xiao Huohuo discovered more than a dozen strands of Chaos Origin in a ruin and used them to strengthen both his cultivation and Purple Blaze Flame. Rather than immediately seek Lin Fan, he headed toward the realm's core to find medicine for Dan Chen 38.

In an unattended herb garden, he obtained Sacred Soul Grass and other soul-restoring herbs, awakening his master. Dan Chen revealed that he knew the Primordial Origin Immortal, who had recognized Xiao Huohuo and wished to take him as a personal disciple. Xiao Huohuo was admitted into Hunyuan Hall while other cultivators attempting to follow were repelled 44.
