Character Background
I left my Shifu, Baoshan Sanren, to roam the mortal world, hoping to help those in need. Good fortune brought me into the company of Song Lan, Zichen, who kindly permitted me to join him in his travels. Together we hunted evil and vanquished the wicked.
Upon discovery of the massacre of small cultivation sects, I chased after the culprit, Xue Yang, and finally caught him at Yueyang with the help of Zichen, Wei Gongzi, Lan Er Gongzi, and Jiang Gongzi. Unfortunately, Xue Yang later escaped and proceeded to slaughter Zichen's home, Baixue Pavilion, in retaliation for his capture. Zichen was also poisoned and blinded.
Despite Zichen's vow to never see me again, I couldn't leave him in such a state. In desperation I brought him to my Shifu and offered my eyes before leaving in order to honour Zichen's wishes. In my blindness, I made the acquaintance of a young girl, A-Qing, as well as a young man who was severely injured.
We rested at Yi City where the young man recovered from his wounds. For three years we lived a simple life together. One day, to my shock, I found out that the young man who had been living with A-Qing and myself was actually Xue Yang. I confronted him for what he did at Baixue Pavilion and his deceit for the past three years, but my memories of the event are hazy*. In the end, A-Qing and I escaped Yi City and started traveling together.
Since then, I managed to reunite with Zichen with A-Qing's help, and we have even gotten married with the promise to never be separated again.
((ADMIN: *This Xiao Xingchen has forgotten much of what occurred in Yi City because of the trauma he suffered. Upon confronting Xue Yang, he was told about all the people he had killed in the city believing they were puppets. In his grief, he attempted to end his life as atonement but just as Shuanghua's blade slide across his neck he realized A-Qing was still in danger if he died. At the last second, his grip on Shuanghua weakened so the injury wasn't deep enough to end his life. After escaping with A-Qing, he was so distraught that his memories became repressed leaving him with only a hazy memory of what had happened. On his neck, there still remains a faint scar from his attempt to end his own life.))
