Character Introduction

Appearance

The last patriarch of the ancient Xiao clan, an unparalleled genius of the Xiao clan, the ancestor of the Gama Empire’s Xiao family, the head of the five supreme experts on the Dou Qi Continent a thousand years ago, a peak Nine-Star Dou Sheng late stage, only one step away from the Dou Di level. After realizing that the bloodline power of the Xiao clan was withering, he decided to gather the bloodline of the entire clan to break through to Dou Di and reactivate the Dou Di bloodline, but failed due to the lack of vitality in the world. He was then besieged by Soul Clan experts, seriously injured, and died. His remnant soul exists in the Heavenly Tomb, waiting for the arrival of the Xiao clan members.

Clothing

Xiao Xuan wears a light cyan outfit. His face is not particularly handsome, but it always gives people a special charm. His long black hair falls over his shoulders, and his obsidian-like pupils are like black holes, deep and full of an unusual wisdom, revealing a captivating charm. [3] When facing his descendant Xiao Yan, he often shows a gentle smile.

After burning his remnant soul, Xiao Xuan’s body became slightly illusory and transparent, and his appearance began to age, revealing an ordinary old man’s decrepitude.

Personality

Bold and generous, ambitious, unconventional, and knows how to adapt to changing circumstances. Faced with the threat of the Soul Clan, Xiao Xuan would rather break than bend, even if the bloodline of the Xiao clan was withering. As the patriarch of the Xiao clan, he has a strong sense of responsibility and attaches great importance to the Xiao clan, protecting his descendants. In the war to destroy the clan, in order to allow the clan members to escape and preserve the bloodline, he did not hesitate to self-detonate to seriously injure the Soul Clan. In order to help Xiao Yan break through to the Emperor Realm soul, Xiao Xuan was willing to burn his remnant soul to fight the soul of the Heavenly Tomb. When he saw Xiao Yan successfully break through, Xiao Xuan’s soul completely dissipated.

Life Experiences

Last Patriarch

Xiao Xuan was an unparalleled genius of the Xiao clan. It only took him hundreds of years to reach the Nine-Star Dou Sheng late stage. He completely relied on his own powerful strength to forcibly control three types of strange fire and created the Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations. He inherited the position of the patriarch of the Xiao clan at a young age and was considered the person with the most hope of becoming a Dou Di in the Xiao clan. He had an excellent relationship with Fen Yan Old Ancestor of Fen Yan Valley and left the self-created Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations in Fen Yan Valley. The relationship between the Xiao clan and the Gu clan was also relatively good under Xiao Xuan’s leadership.

Failed Breakthrough

During Xiao Xuan’s lifetime, the Dou Di bloodline of the Xiao clan had withered, and the Xiao clan had already shown signs of decline. In order to continue the Dou Di bloodline, he decided to put all his eggs in one basket, gather all the bloodline power of the Xiao clan on himself, and forcibly break through to Dou Di, but he failed due to insufficient vitality. After failing to break through to Dou Di, he suffered severe injuries and was ambushed and killed by Hun Tiandi, the patriarch of the Soul Clan, leading Soul Clan experts, but he also killed a large number of Soul Clan experts and severely injured the Soul Clan patriarch Hun Tiandi for a thousand years. It also made the Xiao clan completely decline. He had previously received some favors from the Gu clan, and later, before his death, he asked the Gu clan to take care of the Xiao clan and preserve the bloodline of the Xiao clan at a critical moment. After his death, his soul energy body entered the Heavenly Tomb, waiting for the descendants of the Xiao clan to come and receive the last inheritance of the Xiao clan.

Gu Clan Heavenly Tomb

Xiao Xuan’s tomb is located in the Gu Clan’s Ancient Realm, but that tomb has a strange power. The people of the Gu Clan cannot enter. Although some Gu Clan people with profound strength can forcibly enter, Xiao Xuan is, after all, indebted to the Gu Clan, and they do not dare to break in recklessly. Therefore, for so many years, no one has been able to enter that tomb.

After Xiao Yan entered the Heavenly Tomb, he was blocked by two Soul Clan Dou Sheng energy bodies. A remnant shadow of Xiao Xuan appeared and slapped the two one-star Dou Sheng energy bodies of the Soul Clan to death. He expressed his dissatisfaction with the Gu Clan for not fulfilling the agreement to the Gu Clan people, and merged some of the Xiao Clan’s remaining bloodlines with Xun Er’s Gu Clan bloodline and Zi Yan’s Dragon Phoenix bloodline, injected them into Xiao Yan’s body, gave Xiao Yan the complete version of the Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations, helped him obtain the Xiao Clan’s clan patterns, and used the Ancient Devouring Worms to make the Ancient Worm Emperor Clothes as a gift to Xiao Yan.

Self-Immolation in the Heavenly Tomb

Xiao Yan appeared again when he entered the Heavenly Tomb for the second time, and told Xiao Yan about his speculation about the origin Emperor Qi. He placed the hope of revitalizing the Xiao clan on Xiao Yan. In order to help Xiao Yan break through to the Emperor Realm soul, he burned his soul to extract the origin of the Heavenly Tomb soul, eventually exhausting his soul power and completely falling. Afterwards, the little soul imprint left was taken back by Xiao Yan.
