Longnü

**Longnü** is a disciple of Gyun Yin, and an Empyrean.

## Appearance

### Newborn Form

Longnü's newborn form looks like a small black kitten but with scales. The sclera that is usually white in the human’s eyes is black. Her pupils are sharp slits that would typically make it look menacing, but with the body of something akin to a small feline animal, she looks adorable. Longnü has two horns on her head. It curves outward around her head and then, sharpening into a point in the front.

Her head is shaped like a cat’s, but the snout is just a little bit more pointed, otherwise the same. She has a reptilian tail that has two red spikes at the end. Along the spine, there are small red spikes that match the color of her eyes. She doesn’t have wings, but where the wings would be located are two small bumps in its stead. Her belly does not have scales, but it looks leathery.

### Dragon Form

Longnü's draconic form isn't as big as Gyun Yin's, but it is still around 8 meters long. Her scales are obsidian black, and the two horns that she had were now sharper and even more menacing than before. She has wings, with pitch-black-bladed feathers. The red spikes that she had on her back and tail weren’t there anymore, but the scales along the ridges of her spine protrudes, making her appear even fiercer. Her limbs are strong, armored with spikes at the elbow and knees and with sharp claws jutting out of her paws. Her once adorable face was now filled with elegance and poise, from her black sclera and yellow irises.

### White Form

Longnü's pitch-black scale is now white, and the horns that she had disappeared completely. The lizard-like tail that she had grows as the scales stick out. The feline-lizard form that she was in is nowhere to be seen as she now looks exactly like a fox. Her fur isn’t exactly fur but scales that have been narrowed down and elongated to give the form of a pelt. Her body is entirely snow-white except for her nose, the tip of her ears and tail, and her paws, which were the original black that she was.

## History

### Tale of the Southern Seas

When the Dragon God's third son was out for swim in the sea in the form of a carp, he was captured by a fisherman. Unable to transform into his dragon form due to being trapped on land, he was going to be sold and butchered at the local market. Once Gyun Yin learned of his predicament, she gave Shancai all her money and sent her disciple to buy him from the market and set him free. Because the carp was still alive hours after it was caught, this drew a large crowd and soon a bidding war started due to people believing that eating this fish would grant them immortality. Shancai was easily outbid and begged the fish seller to spare the life of the fish, but to no avail and earning the scorn of the people at the market. It was then that Gyun Yin projected her voice from far away saying, "A life should definitely belong to one who tries to save it, not one who tries to take it". The crowd, realizing their mistake, soon dispersed and Shancai was able to bring the carp back to Gyun Yin and return it to the sea.

As a token of gratitude, the Dragon God asked Ao Guang to bring the "Pearl of Light", but his granddaughter volunteers to go in his father's place instead. After offering the pearl to Gyun Yin, she decides to stay with her and become her disciple.
