Xue Li

One of the Demon Saints of Demon Realm, Xue Li is the particularly devious Blood Demon that presided over the Spirit Array that kept the Bright Moon Great Emperor trapped within Demon Realm.

## Appearance

Xue Li is a Blood Demon with blood red hair, and scarlet eyes.

## Background

As a Blood Demon, he was skilled in Blood Formations(Spirit Arrays) and had unique Blood Demon Secret Techniques. Blood Demons are also second only to Shadow Demons in their ability to escape. Xue Li is capable of turning into a Blood Mist to make a quick getaway, something he uses to wreak havoc in Star Boundary when Zhu Yan and Fu Zhun first came to protect it.

## Past

Around 20,000 years before the Demon War, the Red Demon Huo Bo and Xue Li came engaged in a conflict in which Xue Li got the better of the former. Ever since, they have had a rivalry of sorts.

## History

### Great Emperor Falls

During the Demon War, 11 Demon Saint Soul Descends eventually gather at the Eternal Sky Continent around Xue Li, who has the Bright Moon Great Emperor trapped in a Blood Array in preparation for stealing the latter’s World's Will for Demon Realm. However, the Bright Moon Great Emperor then suddenly appears to have restored himself before instantly obliterating most of the Soul Descends present, leaving only Demon Saints Xue Li and Huo Bo at the scene. Xue Li and Huo Bo then manage to hold off the Bright Moon Great Emperor until all the other Demon Saints’ true bodies can arrive at Eternal Sky Continent. Under the subsequent siege of 12 Demon Saints, the Bright Moon Great Emperor surprisingly still makes an impressive last ditch effort to escape, but he is then fatally sneak attacked by the Night Shadow Great Emperor. The hundreds of Half-Saints of Demon Realm then make their moves toward the Bright Moon Great Emperor in an attempt to gain his World's Will.

Meanwhile, Bei Li Mo and Xue Li proceed to tease Yu Ru Meng, with the consent of Huang Wu Ji, as a Half-Saint by the name of Yue Sang makes a move to attack Yang Kai. To their surprise, however, the already dying Bright Moon Great Emperor then quickly slays Yue Sang before tricking Yang Kai into killing him, allowing a Star Boundary cultivator to retain its World's Will. The Half-Saints and Demon Saints then make a move to pursue Yang Kai, who makes use of Zhui Feng's legendary speed to flee. Yu Ru Meng is then blocked by Huang Wu Ji from interfering in the other Demon Saints’ pursuit, but she then manages to momentarily shake him off.

To the Demon Saints' surprise, Yang Kai manages to successfully escape through a Territory Gate leading out of Eternal Sky Continent before using Space Principles to seal the exit behind him. Demon Saint Chi Yan then tries to open the seal with brute force, but this only results in the formation of a Void Corridor leading into Nihility. Huang Wu Ji then orders the Demon Saints to block off the Two Worlds Entrance of Demon Realm as they search for Yang Kai. During this time, Huang Wu Ji also makes the declaration that Yang Kai must be killed unless he becomes demonized.

### Yang Kai Escapes Again

Xue Li shortly thereafter tracks Yang Kai down to Cloud Shadow Continent, where he finds the latter has surprisingly promoted to High Rank Demon King, and is in the presence of Bei Li Mo. Yu Ru Meng then reminds Xue Li of Huang Wu Ji's previous words before the Blood Demon Demon Saint makes an attempt to convince Bei Li Mo into helping him to attack Yang Kai anyways. To his surprise, however, Bei Li Mo refuses his request, using Huang Wu Ji's words as her excuse. Outnumbered, Xue Li is then forced to retreat.

Over a year later, Xue Li discovers that Yang Kai is swallowing numerous Demon Saint domains within Demon Realm. As Yang Kai is swallowing Zu Liao's domain, Xue Li continues to spy on him as he notifies Shadow Demon Demon Saint, Wu Hua, of the events transpiring there. As Xue Li then moves to distract Chang Tian, Wu Hua makes a killing strike toward Yang Kai, but he is stopped from making a decisive fatal blow by the combined and hurried efforts of Yu Ru Meng and Bei Li Mo. Wu Hua then loses track of Yang Kai thanks to a technique used by Yu Ru Meng. Xue Li and Wu Hua then proceed to regroup before they are shocked to find that Yang Kai and the others have already left the domain, something that is only possible due to Yang Kai's Space Spirit Beads and his mastery over Space Principles.

You Qiu, the Sand Demon Demon Saint, later shows up to help Xue Li and Wu Hua as they pursue Yang Kai and his group in addition to notifying the other Demon Saints the latter's activities. However, Yang Kai and allies Yu Ru Meng, Chang Tian, and Bei Li Mo manage to escape through the Two Worlds Passage back to Star Boundary regardless.

### Captured Great Emperors

Yang Kai managed to seal the Two Worlds Passage during his escape. However, over a decade later, Can Ye manages to reopen the Two Worlds Passage, allowing the Demon Saints to shockingly enter Star Boundary and confront its 7 remaining Great Emperors in addition to the 3 Demon Saint-level powerhouses Yang Kai escaped with. Huang Wu Ji, Ge Meng, Chi Yan, Xue Li, Huo Bo, Fu Yu, Mo Kan, You Qiu, Wu Hua, and Zu Liao likewise match their numbers evenly. However, the Demon Saints don’t stay in place for long, and immediately proceed to make their way toward different directions throughout Star Boundary. Startled, the Star Boundary top powerhouses proceed to pursue the 10 enemy Demon Saints individually.

Huang Wu Ji manages to isolate the Iron Blood Great Emperor in the Northern Territory. Although he is the strongest Demon Saint, Huang Wu Ji proves to not exactly be Zhan Wu Hen's opponent in Star Boundary. Regardless, Huang Wu Ji and the other 9 Demon Saints suddenly and confidently start a strange chant as the millions of corpses of the Demon Race forces outside the Two Worlds Passage fill the air with Demon Qi. Horrified, Zhan Wu Hen attacks Huang Wu Ji, who then proceeds to grab and hold the former while smiling with complete disregard for any damage suffered. The Great Emperors are then further shocked when the Demon Saints somehow appear to break the World Barrier of Star Boundary to make a connection with Demon Realm, something that should normally be impossible for a Demon Saint to achieve.

After the 10 connections are formed all over Star Boundary, a giant hand comes from the Void of each passage and grabs both the Great Emperors and Demon Saints into a different space, effectively separating them from Star Boundary. Meanwhile, Star Boundary starts to be progressively corroded by Demon Qi as the Demon Race continue to invade from the now 10 Two Worlds Passages that have opened all over Star Boundary.

### Defending Demon Towers

As the Great Emperors are taken into a separate space, Yu Ru Meng, Chang Tian, and Bei Li Mo are unable to resist the will of Mo Sheng. Therefore, their matching Demon Saints in Xue Li, Fu Yu, and Huo Bo are free to remain in Star Boundary, where they guard the many Demon Towers that help the Demon Race to transmit themselves around the Great World. When Dragon Island Great Elders Zhu Yan and Fu Zhun join the war, the Demon Saints are initially able to suppress them due to their superior numbers. When Yang Kai returns to Star Boundary after completely absorbing Demon Realm, the 3 Demon Saints make an attempt to kill him at Star Soul Palace, but they are thwarted by Zhu Yan and Fu Zhun.

Later, to the horror of the Demon Saints, the Dragon Island Great Elders one day come to face them completely healed, and both carry power greater than that of a single Great Emperor. This essentially brings the war to a stalemate for the Demon Saints, as they can only defend their Demon Towers to protect their giant Formation. Eventually, the Profound Heavens Temple opens in Star Boundary, and the 3 Demon Saints gather their Half-Saints so that they can attempt to steal a Great Emperor spot. Unable to act toward Yang Kai due to the protection of Zhu Yan and Fu Zhun outside of the Profound Heavens Temple entrance, Xue Li, who has long despised Yang Kai, orders the Half-Saints to be sure to kill him as they enter the Temple.

### Void Great Emperor

Later, the 3 Demon Saints are furious as they learn that Yang Kai has seized the Great Emperor opportunity during the Final Battle of Star Boundary at High Heaven Palace. They then try to quickly finish the corrosion of Star Boundary before the Illusionary Heavens Furnace appears in the sky, eventually revealing the new Void Great Emperor. The Demon Saints then play their final card as they rely on Can Ye, who had been hidden from the war, to stall Yang Kai until Star Boundary is completely corroded. However, to their horror, Yang Kai slaughters Can Ye within mere moments of their battle. Just when the Demon Saints feel all hope is lost, Mo Sheng finally reveals himself in the form of Demon Qi in order to oppose Yang Kai.

However, things only get worse for the 3 Demon Saints when the other Great Emperors are taken out of the separate space by Wu Kuang/Duan Hongchen. His plans ruined, a furious and desperate Mo Sheng then proceeds to absorb all the Demon Saints and Demon Qi in Star Boundary, except for those saved by Yang Kai, in order to form and/or heal his giant physical body.
