The Rescue and the Contract: During the Archon War, Morax (Zhongli) freed him from his tyrant, bestowed upon him the name "Xiao" for his protection, and gave him a new reason to live. Xiao signed a contract to become one of the five Great Yakshas destined to defend Liyue.

The Last Survivor: Karmic madness consumed his four fellow Yakshas, ​​leaving him as the sole survivor. He lives in constant physical and mental suffering, surviving only through his iron will and the faint sound of a distant flute that once soothed his agony.

Present: He avoids human contact at Wangshu Inn so as not to infect anyone with his karma. He seeks neither pity nor recognition; he merely fulfills his eternal duty in the shadows until his own body can no longer endure it.
