cut trope


* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: One of the most triumphant examples of this trope as far as the TCZ franchise is concerned. Strangely though, is that the initial release of the first volume of TCZ I showed her on the cover (which is the only colored portion of the manhua then) with (depending on whether you got the English or Chinese version) dark brown hair for the former and black (with a tint of dark olive) hair on the latter.

Badass is no longer a trope


* BadAss: Not King Hippu, but his father before him - though said character was only mentioned. However, to be regarded as a WorthyOpponent by Lord Namuh probably suggests the late King Trioculus was most likely [[AuthorityEqualsAsskicking quite a]] [[RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething fearsome warrior king]].



* BadAss: For the first one-third of the series she's shown to have little to no difficulty handling whatever opposition stands in her way.

** BadassNormal: Even before developing spiritual powers, she single-handedly defeated a {{Mook}} from the Evil Way. Granted, it was a Ghost, the lowest-ranked of {{Mooks}}, but as [[MrExposition Wang Chan]] had put it, even the lowliest of goons from the Celestial Zone would make short work of normal (that is, those without spiritual powers) people.

* LadyInRed: Sure, the red is there. But Chi Xue subverts the common notions associated with said trope by having a red outfit that is as un-fanservicey as they come.
** Played straight by the Mazakala clone on the other hand, whose outfit essentially amounts to an anachronistic number that combines elements of SensualSpandex, ChainmailBikini and SpyCatsuit into one spicy MsFanservice package.

* BreakTheCutie: See the spoilered trope above.
* CurtainsMatchTheWindows: Has lilac eyes that match her hair.
* {{Expy}}: Of Xing Ling. (See TCZ I, II and X)
* GenkiGirl: Almost to the point that she seems like Xing Ling's SpiritualSuccessor.
* {{Otaku}}: Loves manga and {{Cosplay}}.
* TimeStandsStill: Her main power set basically allows her to freeze time.
** BlowYouAway: Her secondary power set is control over wind.
* TheWorfEffect: Wee Tian Beng appears to be fond of zig-zagging this trope for Lavender for the first half or so of the series by having Lavender appear to struggle against a newly-introduced antagonist, then inverts the trope by revealing it as a bluff on her part to get them to reveal their openings.
** Vol. 4 features a CliffHangerEnding that introduced [[SmugSnake Snap Assault Peter]] who promptly introduces Lavender to the ground via an energy blast equivalent of a HeyYouHaymaker. [[spoiler: The next volume reveals that Lavender pretty much did a NoSell on Peter's attack.]]
** Vol. 7 had [[DumbMuscle Explosive Blast]] make his debut by taking a WorfBarrage of Lavender's best hits, then boasting that even if she stopped time she would have no way of defeating him because he can take whatever she can throw at him. [[spoiler:Lavender proceeds to [[EyeScream go for his eyes]] and kick him into a river.]]
