She frequently appears in comedian supporting roles, such as Ron, an acrobatic acupuncturist in The Legend of the Liquid Sword, or the just slightly-too-young thief Little Enchantment in Flying Dagger. Her most noted role is Ashura the Hell Virgin, a supporting role in Peacock King and a starring role in Saga of the Phoenix. This role is also quite comic and often slapstick. She plays a mischievous but essentially innocent offspring of devils. She possesses great power, but essentially as a vessel for others to wield, or for her to use when she is not really trying, and thus she is a source of great danger without any malice. In both films, her character is redeemed when she helps her friends Peacock King (Biao Yuen) and Lucky Fruit, who act as her guardians, destroy major demons. The role was more demanding in the second film, in which her childlike innocence and mischief is somewhat quelled by a mystical death sentence that attacks her like a disease.
