Background and History

Hidden White Tiger Heir

Sushang is the daughter of Su Yuan and Shang Ni. After the catastrophe surrounding Eternal Night, Mo Shoupin concealed evidence that Shang Ni had given birth, adopted the child, and raised her as Xiao Qiu in the Heavenly Sword Holy Land. Her true name combines her parents’ names; “Sushang” also means autumn 28 58 65 72.

Mo Shoupin was later attacked by people seeking her Sword Source. Mortally wounded, she fled with Sushang and died in a forest. Sushang initially told Xie Feng that her mother had died of illness, but eventually admitted the truth and asked to become strong enough for revenge. Xie Feng identified the Sword Patriarch involved as Mu Shuangling 12.

Training Under Xie Feng

Xie Feng removes the restriction suppressing Sushang’s physique and begins teaching her swordsmanship. Although she receives the Radiant Sun Sword Art, she initially cannot understand it because Mo Shoupin never taught her swordsmanship. Her early training includes repeated defeats against a bamboo-leaf sword manifestation 9 11 14 15.

He subsequently teaches her alchemy, gives her Water Dragon Chant, and helps her awaken a heavenly fire. She develops both martial and alchemical cultivation, eventually supplying most of the Xuanji Sect’s everyday exchange pills 19 23 25 102.

Family Truth and Ancestral Inheritance

Sushang’s search for her origins leads through Eternal Night and the Azure Dragon Clan’s involvement in her parents’ deaths. When Xie Feng tells her that her parents and the Primordial White Tiger Clan have perished, she fears that she brings misfortune to those close to her. She nevertheless resolves to personally avenge her father against the Marquis of Northern Nether 28 65 66.

With the key preserved by the master of Guixu, Sushang opens the Lost Immortal Temple. Within its Emperor Tomb, three hundred ancestral emperors recognize her royal bloodline and give her their remaining power. They charge her with becoming a Saint and using her sacred bloodline to revive the clan 72 73 76 78 79.

During her later battle with the Marquis of Northern Nether, Xie Feng identifies combat inexperience as her principal weakness. She follows his advice to combine deception, sword techniques, and alchemical soul arts rather than relying on strength alone 124 125.

Lord Yaoguang and the Dao Realm

Sushang initially refuses Zhao Yuejia’s request to become his disciple. After he claims to be dying and promises to help her grow stronger, she accepts and leaves Great Wilderness Heaven with him. She later inherits his power and position as Lord Yaoguang 158 217.

In the Dao Realm, she becomes an inner court disciple under Xie Feng’s supervision. She also helps Ge Kuangwo on Flame Island, where he establishes a college for her to teach alchemy. Despite her success, she realizes that alchemy is something she enjoys rather than the pursuit to which she wants to devote her entire life 256 285 291 392.

Her later activities include stalling Asura Island attackers while awaiting reinforcements, exposing Xuanji Sect impersonators, and killing Pill Venerable Feng Yang. When Xie Feng is injured by Ye Zhu, she attempts to seek revenge despite the danger; Kong Qiusu stops her and promises to confront him himself 129 299 404 428.

Sect Management and Machinery

Sushang helps manage the Xuanji Sect during Xie Feng’s absences and becomes a strict teacher to Gu Yu. Her research expands beyond ordinary pill refinement: she reproduces Heaven-Reaching Elephant Heart Pills with ninety percent of the originals’ effects and experiments with the Kui Emperor Crow God 595 621 643 665.

When Gu Yu brings news of the Jade Pivot Sect’s establishment in the Fifth Universe, Sushang chooses not to accompany him immediately. She wants to develop her talent in the Dao of Machinery into a source of strength that can genuinely support Xie Feng. By her later appearance in the Qingli Realm, she offers Xie Ling a custom Divine Mechanism Cannon and warns her against leaving the Jade Pivot Sect to meet Xie Xu 769 950.

Appearance

Sushang initially has a petite, round-faced appearance with lingering baby fat, silver hair, amber almond-shaped eyes, and fluffy tiger ears. Her everyday early clothing consists of a white or silver vest and dark orange lantern-style trousers 10 12 25 56 83 117.

• Awakened adult form: Long silver hair reaching her ankles, a slender build, bare feet, and a silver-blue armored battle dress 9 13 30.
• Post-inheritance manifestation: A golden crown and black imperial robe embroidered with tigers, clouds, and suns; this appearance is described with dark, lustrous hair 83.
• Later clothing: Wears flowing blue robes during her attempted departure to confront Ye Zhu 428.

Personality

Sushang is lively, frank, mischievous, and fond of good food. She can pout, grumble inwardly at Xie Feng, or turn a frightening training session into a joke. Although she becomes more composed and elegant with time, her underlying cheerfulness remains 15 28 70 449 649.

Loss leaves her deeply afraid of abandonment. She worries that she is a jinx after learning how many loved ones have died, and repeatedly seeks reassurance from Xie Feng. That vulnerability coexists with pride and determination: she wants to avenge her family and refuses to accept helplessness when Xie Feng is harmed 65 66 428.

Her affection is practical as well as emotional. She tends to the orphaned Ze Ling, brings medicine to Xie Feng, and dedicates herself to developing machinery that can help him. As a teacher, however, she is demanding and takes her responsibilities seriously 428 437 643 769.
