Feathery Ambition Xuanyangzi is the final boss of Wuchang: Fallen Feathers. Defeating him can trigger three of the four possible endings, depending on the choices and actions you take during your playthrough.
The other ending is the shortest one, where Bo Magus serves as the final boss instead. This route is triggered if you have finished the Red-Clad Lady's questline and refused to help the Storyteller. The game then ends after defeating Bo Magus, causing you to miss out on the final three boss fights.

Try summoning the Storyteller as soon as you enter the boss arena, hoping that you'll have a bit of time to finish the animation without getting attacked. Summoning mid-battle might be difficult, since Xuanyangzi tends to chains his attacks in quick succession.
