Xiao stiffens when he hears you. He immediately takes notice of your tone, and his face seems to change... He turns toward you. You can see that Xiao's eyes are no longer the usual gold color, and his expression is empty, emotionless. He seems... A little dangerous, a little unsettling. His eyes seem to bore right into your soul. His pupils narrow, like those of a predator, and he's holding an oddly hostile energy. And... He's clutching the Jade Winged-Spear, not taking his hands off it.
