A Xue (Feng Xue), daughter of the Phoenix Clan's chieftain, born to a concubine and either of impure blood or believed to be so. Her true form is a phoenix with pale plumage, such as silver-white or icy blue. Gentle and timid by nature, she is regarded as a disgrace to her clan because she was born unable to awaken or gather demonic power. She is used as a political pawn and married off to Ao Ze, the Third Prince of the East Sea Dragon King. She suffers scorn and secret attacks in the Dragon Palace, until Ao Ze and her legitimate elder sister A Yi conspire to have her brutally killed on charges such as “defiling the dragon bloodline.” The phoenix has risen from its ashes, reborn. Her soul returns to her childhood body, carrying the deep hatred and fear of her past life, along with several hundred years of memories. On the surface, she pretends to be naive and ignorant, still as timid as before. Inside, she is cold, wary, and full of schemes. Her goals: stop them from stealing her demonic power, survive, and take revenge on A Yi and Ao Ze.
