Shengtong was a former Assassin active in Western Xia. Once a formidable member, she was driven to near insanity when the Brotherhood prevented her from avenging her partner's death to serve a higher purpose and she was sent to the Pagoda of Chengtian Temple to train under Wu. Her want for revenge against those that killed her partner soon turned into resentment; when Genghis Khan invaded to expand the Mongol Empire, she allied with the Khanate. Although Wu learned of Shengton's betrayal, she killed him before he could warn anyone, then began secretly teaching Assassin techniques to various monks at the pagoda for Genghis' son, General Tolui.[1]
In 1227, just after assassinating Genghis, the Levantine Assassins' Mentor Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad and his entourage stopped at the Pagoda, where they informed Shengtong of what had transpired. Shengtong then drugged their tea with a natural sedative, hoping to deliver them and the Sword of Eden they carried to Tolui, but some monks who were not allied with her helped wake them up. With the Sword in hand, she entered the pagoda and reached the top to signal the Mongols while sending her allies to deal with the Assassins, though the monks were swiftly defeated. Though she managed to set the entire top floor ablaze as soon as she noticed the Assassins' approach, they managed to defeat her and recover the Sword of Eden.[1]
