Gongsun Xing

## 公孙杏

**Gongsun Xing** is a Qi Condensation member of the Azure Spirit Sect residing in the Outer Star Seas within the Scattered Star Seas. Her sect was a small sect with no remaining Core Formation elders as a result of an extermination campaign run by the Demon Beasts of the outer seas. Her father was the master of the sect.

**Gongsun Xing** was born with hindrances to her ability to cultivate. Her father forcefully cultivated the Azure Spirit Profound Arts to be able to cleanse her essence and transform her meridians allowing her to cultivate more freely. However the art was unsuitable for him leaving him paralyzed. In love for her father, she scavenged the perilous seas for a cure in a small group with other Qi Condensation and Foundation Establishment cultivators.

## First Meeting

During her travels, **Gongsun Xing** encountered a flock of Grade-2 demon birds that relentlessly chased her and her peers. Running out of energy, they were forced to find somewhere to temporarily conceal themselves and rest. She encountered a thick mist hovering over a large area. She and her group decided to conceal themselves within the mist only to discover that the mist concealed a small island. However, the beasts managed to discover her whereabouts forcing her and her peers to travel into island's the forests. She was surprised when she instead traveled through an illusion formation into the side of a mountain that was occupied by a powerful cultivator.

The leader of the group requested assistance from the senior who effortlessly exterminated all of the low-grade demon birds. In a brief exchange the unknown senior learned that **Gongsun Xing** was searching for a method to help her father recover. Seeing an opportunity to solicit the help of a powerful senior, **Gongsun Xing** offered herself as a Cultivation Vessel in exchange for Vital Essence Pills that could be used by her father to recover. Her peers attempted to dissuade her, however she was resolute entering the cave residence of the unknown senior.

After entering the cave residence, she explored her new home. She discovered that her suitor was unfathomably powerful when she searched through unprotected jade slips that contained top-grade Cultivation Arts. Her wariness grew as she discovered another room with top-grade treasures that were sentient. After exploring, she waited to meet her suitor passing the time by studying one of the unprotected jade slips containing the Coiling Jade Arts.

**Gongsun Xing** met her suitor Han Li who at the time was a Mid-Core Formation stage cultivator. She was surprised at his youthful appearance because she originally expected to meet an old eccentric. Upon meeting she gave him information on local trade markets as he had just left seclusion. A day later, she found the cave residence abandoned left with a message in a scroll. Han Li was moved by her familial piety and thus decided to leave her with the slip containing the Coiling Jade Arts and a few top-grade treasures that he no longer had any use for.
