The little white dragon was the son of Ao Run of the West Sea. He was sued by his father to the Heavenly Court for setting fire to the pearl in the hall. He should have been executed, but he was saved by the intercession of Guan Yin Bodhisattva. He went to Tang Sanzang's side to do leg strength to atone for his sins. Although he was one of the members of the Buddhist scriptures team, he was still a member of the Heavenly Court system (the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas were under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Court) and was a sinner. Therefore, his situation was different from that of Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, and Sha Wujing. When Sun Wukong stole the ginseng fruit, he did not steal the fruit for the little white dragon. This was because the little white dragon was guilty and was being watched by the Heavenly Court. Sun Wukong considered the subtle relationship between himself and the Heavenly Court. The possibility of stealing another fruit was higher, and it might mess up the matter of stealing the fruit, so he did not steal the fruit for the little white dragon.

In Journey to the West, the little white dragon was eventually given the title of Marshal Canopy. This was a famous Taoist god who was considered the head of the water officials. He was in charge of lakes, rivers, and other waters. The little white dragon had once provided important help to Tang Sanzang and his party on the way to the scriptures and played an important role in the final battle. Therefore, he had received the honor of Marshal Canopy.
The little white dragon was originally the son of Ao Run, the Dragon King of the West Sea. He had committed a capital crime by burning a pearl given by the Jade Emperor. When he was about to be executed, he was saved by Guanyin Bodhisattva. The Bodhisattva told him to wait for the people who came to fetch the scriptures in Yingchou Stream. He was not allowed to do evil. When he was hungry, he went ashore to catch birds or deer for food. When Tang Sanzang and his disciples arrived at Yingchou Stream, the little white dragon came out and rushed to Tang Sanzang. Although it claimed that it was hungry and ate Tang Sanzang's horse by mistake, it might actually have another purpose. After that, Sun Wukong invited Guanyin Bodhisattva. The little white dragon was subdued and turned into a white dragon horse, becoming the mount of Tang Sanzang. On the way to the scriptures, except for when Tang Sanzang was turned into a colorful tiger by the Kui Wood Wolf in Baoxiang Country, the little white dragon transformed into a palace maid and fought with the monster but was not a match. The rest of the time, he was mostly at ease carrying Tang Sanzang and did not participate in the matter of subduing demons and eliminating monsters. In the end, he obtained the true scripture. The little white dragon turned into a golden dragon in the Dragon Transformation Pool on the back cliff of the Spirited Mountain and was conferred the title of Bodhisattva of Eight Heavenly Dragons.

The little white dragon in Journey to the West was called Xu Jingyang. He was an old dragon who had cultivated the Fiery Eyes spell.
The little white dragon was not the biological son of Ao Run, the Dragon King of the West Sea, but the son of the Guangjin Dragon King of the West Sea. He claimed to be the Third Prince of the West Sea Dragon King, but some clues in the original work showed that there was something else about his life. For example, the description in the Agonizing Eagle Stream hinted that he was "confused about his parents", that is, he could not tell who his parents were. After he succeeded in obtaining the scriptures, he was given the title of " Eight Heavenly Dragons Guangli Bodhisattva." The word " Guangli " in the title might be his real name. This was in line with the Tathagata's statement that he was the son of the " Guangjin Dragon King." Therefore, it was speculated that he was the son of the Guangjin Dragon King, and was similar to an adopted son in the West Sea Dragon King's family.
